Glossy Box July 2014 | Stars and Stripes | Unboxing

Well it's that time of the month again, time for all the subscription box's to arrive. This month Glossy & Birch turned up on the same day so i'll unbox one today, and one tomorrow. That should give me a day or two before Love me beauty box arrives too!

First impressions were good, love the box with the american flag print but there was no magazine this month. Is this something they've decided to stop or have i just missed out this time? Does anyone know?

Bellapierre Cosmetics Ltd - Mineral lipstick

I first laid my eyes on the lipstick. I was really hoping for red & not orange after seeing a spoiler a couple of weeks back but i got orange. I personally don't like this colour on me, i'm more of a red/purple toned girl but the quality is amazing, it's really thick coverage and leaves a nice matte finish. It lasted a good few hours at work even throughout eating my dinner.

Price £20 from www.bellapierre.co.uk

Carmex - Lip balm

Another lip product. Can't complain, everyone needs a good lip balm and i personally think Carmex is up there with the best of them for a small price tag.

 £2.69 from www.graftonsbeauty.co.uk

ABSOLUTE New York - Perfecting Eyeshadow Primer

(apologies for the shocking photo) I haven't had an eye primer before so this was a nice surprise that i'm looking forward to trying. It can also be used on its own to neutralize redness and to brighten the eyes too which is good.

$4.99 (£2.92) from www.nicka.com 

Color Club - Glossy Seal 

Color Club nail polish is made in New York and this shade has been made especially for Glossy Box. It's a gorgeous dark blue, not very summery but i wear dark colours on my nails all year round. I've not tried it yet but i can't wait to.

$8 (£4.69) from www.shopcolorclub.com

Pur Minerals - Dirty Girl Detoxifying Mudd Masque 

A good mud mask is always welcome for my oily skin and i'm almost at the bottom of my Botanics mask now so this has come at the right time. Pascalite Clay absorbs pore-clogging impurities while Salicylic Acid removes dead skin. 

£2.25 worth of product here. The full size is 120g for £18 from www.marksandspencer.com

So there we have it, four full size products and one smaller sample that total £32.55 in total. I think that's pretty good going. What did you get in your box?
