GLOSSYBOX UNBOXING - AUGUST 2018 UK BOX (PRIDE EDITION)

It's that time again. My Glossybox arrived today and now I've finished filming the unboxing of it, it's time to blog and let you all know what's in this month's box.

So this month's box boasts six full sized products with the box being pride edition.

Glossybox will be supporting the LGBT community this month with fundraising events. It's been 50 years since the decriminalisation of homosexuality. I also learnt something from this box and from reading the articles Glossybox have been posting this week; The colour meanings of the rainbow flag and I'm glad to have learnt this piece of information. I'm really happy to see Glossybox doing something like this and being part of the LGBT community. It's good to spread awareness and be part of a community that has to fight to get the support and equality that should not have to be fought for.

Oh and did I mention there are six full sized products. Because there is.

Rimmel London have joined this month's box with two of their products included from their Ink Me range. The Heart Stamp Tattoo...

And the sticker tattoo's.

I'm just reminded of my childhood with having fake tattoos to stick on my arm and then having such a hard time getting the buggers off. Oh, the nostalgia.

And I'm super excited to try the 'Lets Pre Glam Perfecting Sheet Mask' by Victoria's Secret Pink. I haven't done a face mask in ages so I'm super keen to have a nice bubbly bath, stick a face mask on and chill out.

I'm not feeling the love for the Lip & Cheek Jam by Trifle Cosmetics just because it doesn't really interest me and I know I probably wouldn't reach for it. I can see myself getting rid of this product.

However, I am intrigued to try out the Astrolight highlighter by Kaleido Cosmetics.

And I know blue is the colour everybody is using right now but I'm super not keen on 'The Shadow Paint 703' by 3INA. Especially with how the formula is.

Below are all the products with their Rrp

1. Rimmel London Heart Stamp Tattoo £4.99

2. Rimmel London Sticker Tattoos £4.99

3. Victoria's Secret Pink Let's Pre Glam Perfecting Sheet Mask' £5

4. Trifle Cosmetics Lip & Jam £17.50

5. Kaleido Cosmetics Astrolight highlighter £13

6. 3INA The Shadow Paint 703 £8.95

Total £54.43

ROCCABOX UNBOXING - AUGUST 2018 BOX

Well hey everybody,

I'm going to start by saying that it's literally been  forever since I've blogged anything so I'm so happy to be back at it. I really miss it when I lose my routine.

I'm going to let you all know exactly what I have received in this month's Roccabox. Plus I have a little giveaway as well for all my readers and viewers over on my Youtube channel. (You can find me under Josephine xoxo by the way) If it's not up by the time this blog post is just keep checking back.

And for those of you who don't know what Roccabox is, well it's a beauty subscription box where you pay a monthly cost and get a box every month with beauty products filled inside.

Roccabox costs £10 a month with £3.95 postage. Usually they team up with a beauty blogger or influencer, etc, but this month doesn't feature a collaboration.

So in this month's box there is a total of five products with two being full sized. You get a bit of everything in this box from a cosmetic item to a lip mask and a vial of a new perfume on the scene.

I'm bummed this isn't the full size (we wish) but the scent of the Oscar De La Renta Bella Blanca perfume is beautiful. Heavy in freesia, jasmine and sandalwood, it's a scent that I think would last for a long period of time and leave you showered with compliments. Honestly, if you can get a hand on this perfume to smell, do it.

So I'm not really thrilled with this product because I dont like the look of the wand. The Doucce Punk Volumizer mascara is only a sample size but it boasts the appearance to look like a good pair of falsies.

As for the third product, well I'm not convinced how well it will work but I am definitely excited to try it out and will definitely try it out on my channel and maybe review it on here too. The Beauty Blvd Divine Hydra Gel Lip Mask is designed to plump and smooth dry and damaged lips.

And the fourth product is probably such a bore for some but I'm not mad at receiving the Wilkinson Sword Intuition FAB Women's Razor. There's nothing wrong with have plenty of the stuff we use frequently in every day life. Well for me personally.

And lastly, I've got to say I'm not wowed by the Ordo Travel Toothpaste just because I have a few to try out now and I usually like to stick with the same toothpaste.

1. Oscar De La Renta Bella Blanca Perfume Vial - SAMPLE SIZE - Full size Rrp £76

2. Doucce Punk Volumizer Mascara - SAMPLE SIZE - Full size Rrp £17

3. Beauty Blvd Divine Hydra Gel Lip Mask - FULL SIZE RRP £7.50

4. Wilkinson Sword Intuition FAB Women's Razor - FULL SIZE Rrp £11.99

5. Ordo Travel Toothpaste - SAMPLE SIZE - Rrp £2.50

So is this box as good as the first one I received? Absolutely not. But I mean I'm not mad though. Granted there is one or two things I'm kind of meh about but that's just how beauty boxes work. There's plenty of other future boxes to come. I'm pretty intrigued about the lip mask and the Oscar De La Renta perfume is divine. For my second box with Roccabox, I'm cool with it. I'm definitely excited to receive the next one.

Have you received this box? If so, let me know your thoughts.
