Roccabox for April

Last month I introduced a new subscription box Roccabox (review here) and it has been fFounded by Tia Roqqa who has worked in PR for many brands. The idea for Roccabox is that it will collaborate with a top beauty influencer to create a bespoke box of their favourite beauty products each month and within these boxes, there will be 5 deluxe beauty products and a mini magazine put together by the influencer along with their top hints and tips. This month is the turn of Gabriella from Pretty Ugly.
Roccabox for April
This is what you can find in this months box:

John Frieda Original 6 Effects Serum (full-size rrp £6.99) - This serum is said to have been expertly formulated with an exceptionally unique blend of silicones, combined with silk protein and Thermal Protectant. 
Roccabox for April
This serum protects each strand against the onset of frizz while taming unruly flyaways and boosting shine. Suitable for all levels of frizz, including colour-treated and chemically-treated hair.

Crabtree & Evelyn La Source Ultra-Moisturising Hand Therapy (full-size rrp £8) - In my opinion, you never can have too many tubes of hand cream at the ready and this one is pretty amazing. 
Roccabox for April
Created using rich shea butter and enriched with Ceramides 3 and 6 to improve the skin's barrier function and reduce moisture loss, along with the added infusion of myrrh extract that works to condition nails, whilst hyaluronic acid retains skin's moisture, the hand cream is simply incredible and so far my favourite from all of the Crabtree & Evelyn Hand creams that I have tried. I love the rich but lightweight texture that absorbs and leaves my hands so soft and smooth. I also love the scent of this hand cream, it reminds me of being by the seaside.

Nails Inc Gel Effect Nail Polish (full-size rrp £14) - In this box, you will get one of 5 shades and I got the beautiful nude that is Porchester Square. Described as being muted mushroom as a shade. 
Roccabox for April
Said to be formulated with a unique gel effect this polish lasts for up to three weeks completely chip free. Using Plasticizer Technology to create an incredible high gloss finish, the claim is that your nails with be given a salon perfect finish every time.

Kure Bazaar The Natural Pedicure Ritual (full size rrp £4.50) - Now feet are not my favourite thing at all, I can just about manage to look after my own, but you can keep your trotters away thank you very much.  Now that spring is here and the Ugg Boots have been stored away, the Fitflops are out and that means I need some serious foot DIY!  
Roccabox for April
So this pedicure kit from Kure has arrived at a good time and it contains a foot care mask and all the essential tools to enjoy a natural pedicure at home. The natural foot care mask contains Organic Barley, Aloe Vera and Avocado extracts which work to hydrate and soothe your feet and toes.

The final item in the box comes from the amazing Smith & Cult and it is The Shining Lip Lacquer in shade 'The Lovers' (full-size rrp £23).  I am a huge fan of the Smith & Cult nail polishes, so this is my first venture into their makeup range and unsurprisingly I absolutely love this Lip Lacquer. 
Roccabox for April
A blushed pink shade which is intensely hydrating and incredibly nourishing it is not tacky or sticky on the lips and it gives a medium coverage. It contains Portulaca Pilosa Extract which works to condition and plump the lips and it looks incredible on its own or over lipstick.

Once again, I am really impressed with this box and I am glad to have been introduced to some new products and brands that I haven't yet tried or come across. You can subscribe to Roccabox for just £10 per month (plus £3.95 p&p) and can cancel it at any time. For more information and to sign up, everything you need to know is here.
