So I’m a little late with this. To be absolutely honest, with last month’s German GlossyBox being a complete fail, I opened this one expecting to be wowed but I wasn’t. So my motivation to post about this also went out the window…
This is what my GlossyBox contained-
Alessandro Pedix Feet Heel Rescue Balm
Wow, Alessandro two months in a row? They much be paying big money. While I wasn’t impressed with the nail varnish last month, this cream is pretty decent. I really dislike my feet so anything that claims to make them better is very appealing to me. I’ve been using this every day for about 3 days now. After I put it on, my heel looks a lot less yucky but overall I’ve not noticed much difference.
Acene Suncream SPF 50+
Huh, from one extreme to the next… After having a SPF 6 sun oil in the last box, they’ve gone to the other end of the scale here. I’ve not used it outside yet, though I did put it on my arms the other day just to see how it was. Apparently it’s meant to leave a nice matt finish. I thought it was just the same as normal sun lotion. When the weather gets better I’ll try it out some more and report my findings.
C:EHKO Intensive Care Shampoo
I have a lot of shampoo to use up… I’m still really enjoying the L’Oreal one I got in my very first GlossyBox. So don’t hold your breath for the review for this – it may be a while!
Dermasel Spa Sea Mask
A small sachet of this… looks interesting! I might try this out after my Chinese class tonight.
Secret Brand Lipstick – Full Size
The brand for this is meant to be secret, but someone should warn them that there’s a massive MaxFactor X on the side of it… This is a dark brown lipstick. A strange choice for summer… I’ll swatch it and write about it later, maybe. I don’t think I’ll be using it though.
I also got a sleeping mask. I’ve never really used one before… I guess now is the time to try!
Overall, I’m not excited about this box. Aside from the heel cream there’s nothing I would have bought myself. Maybe the shampoo is super duper amazing. I think I’ll judge GlossyBox on their next box and if it’s not slightly better I’ll move onto another company. I read about a different German based one the other day so I might give that a go.
I’m still waiting patiently for a fashion subscription service, like Little Black Bag in the US. Come on guys, there’s money to be made here!!
