I feel this one has got a different take to the rest of the beauty boxes out there. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love receiving my Glossybox every month and have no plan to cancel that box.
**You can read my blog posts on them as well as watch my Youtube videos. (You can find me under Josephine xoxo by the way.)**
But introducing Roccabox, well it's one of a kind really.
Their products you receive are chosen by bloggers and influencers themselves. So each box you receive is a collaboration of some sorts. Meaning the products you try are products that bloggers or influencers are pretty much loving and using at that moment in time.
And not only that that, it gives you the opportunity to be introduced to new bloggers and influencers you may not have heard of before, and I think that's pretty great.
This is the first box I have received from Roccabox and I'm super impressed. It cost roughly the same as most of the other UK boxes you can subscribe to (Like Glossybox, Birchbox, etc) though I don't think there is a rule to how many products you receive. I think two are usually full sized at least.
Might not sound so impressive to some of you but don't be disheartened. Remember these are chosen by bloggers themselves and you always get travel sizes to try out too and sometimes you get more than five products as well. The products you receive are still worth more than what you pay.
But onto the box,
This is what it looks like.
The box is simple white with Roccabox along the front.
And this is what you get inside. It's very similar to other boxes. You get the bed of straw, you get the information card too.
And this is what the card looks like
This box is a collaboration with Carly Musleh. I did briefly check out her twitter but haven't checked out any other of her other social media handles. I think I will have a delve into her blog. Like I said it's always good to discover new bloggers and influencers.
So the first thing product is a sample size Revitalize Mask by PCA. It says the mask is packed with papaya, honey, green tea and vitamin E which combined are an exfoliating, brightening, tightening, and hydrating powerhouse.
The second product is an Original Balm by Dr Paw Paw. It says you can use it to treat dry skin, chapped lips and sunburn, smear on your collarbone, gloss your eyelids, glam your cheekbones, and tame your brows.
The next product is the Bare Minerals Gen Nude Patent Lip Lacquer. It says this high gloss liquid lipstick is a serious welcome summery antidote to matte lips, and a shade of nude that cleverly looks flattering, chic and oh-so-glam on all skin tones.
The fourth product is the Pureology Hydrate shampoo. It says this shampoo is so packed full of deeply nourishing, yet super gentle ingredients, that it can be used both as a colour- preserving shampoo on coloured locks and as a hydrating shampoo for dry hair.
The fifth product is the Pureology Hydrate Conditioner. It's 100 percent vegan, totally sulfate-free, colour preserving, deeply hydrating - that you can't not love.
And the last product is Pixi, by Petra Lash Line Ink. It says this innovative liner creates the most natural-looking eye definition.
Here is the list of the products in this month's box and the Rrp too.
1. Skin Revitalize Mask by PCA - £49 (Sample Size)
2. Original Balm by Dr Paw Paw - £6.95 (FULL SIZE)
3. Gen Nude Patent Lip Lacquer by Bare Minerals - £17 (SAMPLE SIZE) Rrp £6.90 for sample.
4. Hydrate Shampoo by Pureology - Rrp £18.50 (SAMPLE SIZE)
5 Hydrate Shampoo by Pureology - Rrp £21.50 (SAMPLE SIZE)
6. Lash Line Ink By Pixi by Petra - Rrp £12 (FULL SIZE)
So, like I said at the beginning, I'm super impressed with this box. I'm definitely excited to try the balm out by Dr Paw Paw and I'm due to colour my hair again soon so I'll use the shampoo and conditioner as well. I'm not really fussed on the Bare Minerals lip lacquer as I hate gloss based lip products.
I've also done an unboxing video on my Youtube so check it out.
I can't wait to see what the next box brings.
If you are subscribed to Roccabox, what was your favourite product this month?
