June Glossybox

There was so much hype and excitement as to whom Glossybox would be collaborating with for the May box that I had almost forgotten about the June box until I saw some posts about it.   

The June box for me has just arrived and this months box is said to help you channel summer beauty in one easy step... hmm okay then, let's see what I got in it.  

So we have gone back to the pink shiny box and this is the last Glossybox Magazine that we will be getting in paper form as it has been switched to an online version, slightly sad about that as I always read it, but not the end of the world.

Anyway on to my contents:

So quite an interesting box this month and this is what each product is:

Nailgirls 3-in-1 Base/Topcoat and nail strengther - well you can never have too many nail products right?  I need a new basecoat so looking forward to giving this a go.  It is a full size item which has an RRP £13.50 which is quite expensive for a brand I have never heard of.

TeeezTrend Cosmetics Beautiful Flat Stiff Brush - This is a Glossybox Premiere and has never featured before and this was a product I have seen most people wanting in their box.  I have to say I love the packaging, very floral and very pretty and the brush itself is a really nice size, so looking forward to giving that a try.  It is a full sized item and has an RRP of £15.

Rituals Qi Gong Spray is next and I am a HUGE fan of Rituals products and they also happen to make one of my favourite candles too.  That said this is is a spray which is infused with white lotus and nourshing yi yi ren which gives 24 hour protection from perspiration and leaves a subtle summery scent.  I really like the scent of this and as I am going away for a few days it is coming with me so I can put it to the test.  This is a 50ml can and it has an RRP of £3.50

QV Skincare comes next and in this cute little bottle is some skin lotion which is said to be a great all-rounder that can be used as dry skin relief and to remove make-up.  It is a small 15ml bottle and is worth around the 50p mark.

The final product is from the So Susan range and it is a brand I have seen across the bloggersphere recently and one I quite looked forward to trying.  In my box I have the Universal Blush and it is said to work with your skins natural chemistry to create a healthy and natural looking flush.  It is infused with Buriti Fruit Oil and offers UV Protection.  As a full sized product it has an RRP of £18.

So that is my June box and I have to say I am really quite impressed with it and will use every product that I received.

What do you think to my box and if you have one, please link me to it below in the comments so I can come and see what you got.

My favourite room in the house!

I am sure like me you have a never ending list of things to do, whether that is at work or at home.  If I won some money on the lottery the first room I would want to fix is my bathroom, the one place in the house that is my tranquil haven, or it could be with a bit of a fix up.  When we bought this place and got on the housing ladder, we managed to decorate every room, but the one that has always bugged me, is that bathroom.  I have bathroom envy over friends when I see how nice and white theirs are with there nice big baths and funky mirrors - mine doesn't even have a mirror!

Over the past few weeks, I have spent hours on Pinterest looking at bathroom ideas and that includes everything from the most outlandish ones I can find, the ones which are more basic and some people have done such brilliant jobs that I have a lot of ideas which led me to Utopia Group who have two of the bathrooms that, if I had enough room would most definitely want to have and here they are:

These designs are quite different in many ways, though they are both stylish and contemporary and everything I would want when it comes to somewhere I can relax and spend even more time in the bath (can someone please invent a device to keep water hotter for longer) and escape the world. I have two requirements for my bathroom - 1) It has a bath and 2) There is somewhere I can stand my Aloe Vera Plant and my Three Cactai.   

I don't want something brightly coloured and I don't need something that has lots of things on the wall.  I want simple but with storage because my beauty stuff has to go somewhere right?

Do you have a room in your home which you really want to sort out?
