Glossybox Stars and Stripes

This month's theme is America and the Stars and Stipes box has been specially designed for the July Glossybox. The box is full of American brands, which we love here in GB.



 

Inside there are 5 products, 4 of them full size. 

 

First I will start with Bellapierre Cosmetics Ltd Mineral Lipstick - RRP £20, full size.
I was quite excited for this lipstick, unfortunately though the colour is Ruby and I already have too many red shades in my cosmetics bag. This lipstick is formulated with natural waxes, mineral pigments and antioxidants including Vitamin C and Vitamin E, providing long lasting colour and protection against the sun. I am a big fan of mineral makeup but I think this colour is just a bit too much for me. 


Another full size product is this Eyeshadow Primer by Absolute New York - RRP $4.99
I was really happy to find this in the Glossybox, as I've wanted an eyeshadow primer/concealer for a long time but didn't know exactly which one to go for. Thank you Glossybox for making the decision for me! It is oil-free and has an ultra creamy formula which evens skin tone around the eye area and keeps eyeshadow crease-free and colour-true for a lasting look. It can also be worn alone to neutralise redness and brighten eyes. 



This celebrity and makeup artist favourite lip balm by Carmex is also a full size product and is loved all over the world. Alfred Woelbing invented Carmex lip balm in the USA in the 1930s. The Woelbing family still runs the business today and as the world's most loved lip balm, over 130 are sold every minute worldwide. Carmex's unique formula soothes, moisturises and relieves - resulting in soft, healthy looking-lips. With menthol, camphor and beeswax, lips are nourished, conditioned and protected from the elements all year around. RRP £2.69

 

Color Club nail polish is proudly made in New York with only non-toxic, cruelty free ingredients. The shade Glossy Seal has been especially formulated for the July Glossybox! It has been decided - for the weekend I will have blue nails! RRP $8 for 15ml

Juice beauty is an organic brand and this 15ml sample product is the Green Apple SPF 15 Moisturizer, perfect for lightweight daily wear. It is chemical-free, has broad-spectrum sun protection with peptides, DMAE, alpha lipoic acid, Co Q10 and organic fruit antioxidants to revitalise and protect for optimum age-defying benefits. £35.75 for 50ml.

I love this month's Glossybox! I am much more familiar with American products now and and am very impressed with the box and packaging. I can't wait to try all these products. 

I am also thinking of giving away this Bellapeirre Mineral Lipstick, so if you are interested, comment below!

 Which product is your favourite?

    Nii kahju, et Eestis/Eestisse ei saa selliseid ilukarbikesi tellida :( Vaatan iga kord huvi ja väikse kadeusega neid postitusi :D

      Jaa, siin Inglismaal on neid nii palju erinevaid! Õnneks on nad hea hinnaga ka, nii et alati tuleb karbi sisu vähemalt kolme kordselt tagasi. Eestis oli vist kunagi selline karp nagu Adore Box - Avasta Ilu? Aga nad on vist oma tegevuse lõpetanud.

      Kunagi oli veel glambox või miskit taolist ka, aga mõlemad on oma tegevuse järsku ära lõpetanud. Usun, et klientuuri oleks küll, kui üks korralik box eesti turul ka saadaval oleks, mis ei maksaks liiga palju :D Praegu saab tellida StellariumBox'i, aga minu jaoks on 50 eurot natuke palju välja käia toodete eest, mida ma võib-olla ei kasutakski :)

      Olen Sinuga nõus, 50 eurot on tõesti palju. Iseenesest Glossybox võiks laiendada oma tegevust teistes riikides ka. Hetkel saab seda karpi tellida 16 riigis(Poolas, Austrias, Rootsis, Norras jne). Ehk peaks keegi Eestist jõud nendega ühendama!

    Tere Jana! Olen Sinu blogi aktiivne jälgija, nagu söbranna kohustuseks ja röömuks ikka. :D

    Märkisid postituses, et tulipunane huulepulk pole päris sinu maitse ja ehk annaksid selle edasi.

    Pean möönama, et minu praegune elu deidimaastikul on hektiline, mistöttu tuleb alati olla korrastatud - kunagi ei tea, mis järgmisena juhtub.
    Kui sul on soovi ära anda punane huulepulk, siis mina olen küll valmis seda headel ;) eesmärkidel kasutama! :)

    Edu edaspidiseks blogimiseks!

    Sinu T.

Esimene trimester ehk esimesed kolm kuud \\ beebi number 2

Tere blogi, Jah, üllatus, üllatus, ma olen rase! Esimene trimester on läbi ja teen küsimused-vastused varjandis blogipostituse. Ausalt öeldes ei olnud mul just kõige kergem algus- jõetus, väsimus, iiveldamine ja oksendamine kestsid 6. nädalast kuni 13. nädalani. Ei tuleks vist eriti huvitav postitus, kui ma peaks kirjutama, kuidas ma kõik need nädalad voodis veetsin ja mitu korda päevas vetsupotti kallistasin, nii siis vastan pigem mõnedele esimese trimestriga seotud küsimustele.   Kuidas sa avastasid, et sa oled rase ja kuidas sa Tristanile ütlesid? Ühel reede hommikul ärkasin varem, et trenni teha. Jooksin jooksulindi peal umbes 30 minutit ja terve selle aja tundsin end imelikult. Umbes 5 minutit enne jooksmise lõppu tuli mul üles mega suur röhitsus ja natuke maomahla. See tunne oli nii tuttav! Tagasi tuppa tulles tegin veel Tristanile nalja, et olen vist rase. Terveks päevaks jäi see mõte mind kummitama ja ma ütlesin Tristanile, et peaks igaks juhuks rasedustesti tegema. Jä...

Minu lemmikud tooted - Austraalia eri

Tere blogi, vahelduseks kõigile nendele raseduse postitustele panin kokku väikse listi oma viimase aja lemmikutest toodetest. Olen eelistanud niinimetatud kodumaist, ehk siis kõik tooted on Austraalias tehtud-toodetud-valmistatud.   asap Revitalising Bodyscrub   Paar kuud tagasi otsisin endale uut kehakoorijat ja komistasin juhuslikult sellise brändi otsa nagu asap . Mulle meeldis just see, et nende tooted on looduslikud, vegan ja valmistatud siin Austraalias. Pudel on hea suurusega (200 ml) ja maksab 50 dollarit (umbes 30 eurot). See kehakoorija sisaldab ka minu lemmikut glükoolhapet, mis on tugev antioksüdant, põletikuvastase toimega, nahka niisutav ja stimuleerib kollageeni loomist. Kasutan suhteliselt kokkuhoidlikult - umbes vutimuna suurune kogus ja sellest piisab täiesti käia üle kohad, mis enim muret teevad. Olen kasutanud seda kehakoorijat kaks korda nädalas. Hõõrun õrnalt umbes paar minutit ja loputan siis duši all maha. Nahk on pärast mega pehme ja mina nägin mu...

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Starting again

The last time I posted about my workout regime was in November last year when I started the Kayla Itsines BBG healthy eating plan and 12 week workout sessions. I think I got up to week 4 before I lost my motivation because of illness and Christmas. My friend Marianne and I started BBG again on the 5th of January with thousands of other girls and joined #thekaylamovement and #kaylasarmy to share our journey along this painful but exciting path.  You can read my first post about the BBG programme here as I am explaining a bit more on how I 'found' Kayla and how the training works.  I have done BBG for 5 weeks now (the first 2 weeks we did pre-training) and I'm feeling quite positive. I've not seen much progress myself - I still have my weak areas like tummy, bum and thighs. I do feel much stronger though! I'm doing all of the workouts properly, I have strength in my legs and arms - it is quite easy to do 10 push ups and continue with triceps and mountain clim...
