Seaside Splash - July Glossybox

Hello again :)

So yesterday I received my second GlossyBox, it was like having my birthday again which is so lovely that we receive a gift every month :) 

This months theme is Seaside Splash and if you have read my June review you will know how much I was impressed with the packing and they have done it again with this really cute seaside box with pictures of coral and starfish :) I love keeping these for storage or gift boxes for other peoples gifts! 


Before I received mine I had read some other peoples reviews and I was really excited to find what was in mine. If you don't know your GlossyBox is personalised to you as you are asked questions when you order them so the products you are given suit you best :) as a result of this you might not get products someone else did! From reading other peoples posts I was wanted to find out what was in mine, I love the theme of the month and as England is actually quite hot at the moment it really does fit quite well :)



In my box I was given a full size facial spritz, a tester size of the Alterna Texture hair mist,  tester size Coola mineral face SPF, pack of Essie sleek sticks and 2 full size tubes of Sleeks pout paints! 


Anatomicals Facial Spritz - these are great for the summer months and hot weather. I have never actually owned one before but have heard great things :) you just spray this across the face and it calms and cools you down. It has refreshing extracts of lavender and peppermint so it also smells lovely! I have tested this out a little and found it really did relax me and left me skin feeling a little more moisturised :) this does say it also sets makeup so I'll see if it can live up to that! - Full prize £6.00

Alterna Haircare Bamboo Boho Wave Mist - so many people have raved about these and say they are the perfect thing for this summer! I haven't bought one because I have really curly/frizzy hair and I've been a bit worried about using them so a sample size is perfect to test it out and see what I think. It does claim to work on all hair and add texture, volume and shine so I am expecting good things! - Full size £23.00

Coola Organic Suncare Collection SPF20 - skincare from the sun is so important, I do love having a tan but I am careful and apply suncream when in the sun! My foundation has a SPF in it already but on no makeup days products like these are perfect! This is a multi-tasking product as it protects from the sun but also smooths, tones and minimises pores. From the description of this product it does sound amazing and I hope it really does do what it says because then I will be repurchasing it straight away. Full size £29.99

Essie Sleek Sticks - I have had my nails Minxed before for a holiday but they were professionally done so doing them myself might be interesting! They are meant to last 10 days and be easy to apply. They come in different colours and patterns and I think there is enough for two uses but not 100% sure! After seeing the other shades I thing there are others I would have personally picked but I thing this pattern would look lovely more in winter and maybe on a night out :) - Pack prize £9.99

Sleek Makeup Pout Paints - I love sleek makeup and I have loved everything I have bought from them, so when I saw these in my box I was so excited :D I was given the purple and the nude, in the collection there is also silver, blue and red. I really wanted a nude lip stick so this came in perfect time and the purple I was a bit worried about because I wasn't sure if I would suit it! I tried the purple one on this morning and fell in love :) the colour was amazing, they are so highly pigmented and easy to apply! You do need a lip brush are they don't really have an applicator, you also just need the smallest amount like a pin head and that will do for the whole lip! I think the colour is just amazing and I know these will be a favour and I have already planned a trip into town to buy the red one!! They stay on the lip for a couple of hours and come off evenly so you don't end up patchy or just lined lips :) - Full size £4.99 (bargain)


I love my GlossyBox and how I am receiving brands I have never heard off :)

Has anything here taken your fancy?

Hope you have enjoyed reading and speak soon 
Bye :)
