Latest In Beauty #3:The Glamour Summer Edit




Latest in Beauty have teamed up with Glamour Magazine to put together this box of treats for only £17.99, considering the joint price of these products is worth over £90, which is incredible, and there are some products in here I am really really exited for! I just couldn't not get this box.

Nails Inc. Gel Effect Polish £15.00 Covent Garden Place - Another one of these! This one is such a vibrant, barbie pink, and I love to put this colour on my lips, so a great addition. So exited!

Vita Liberata Trystal Minerals £23.33 - This is a new beauty launch of the year, and I saw it advertised online about a month ago, and it really intrigued me. It's a powder that you brush over your face, and it looks a little like a light dusting of bronzer, but it develops a natural looking tan that says it will last for 5 days. So. I'm very intrigued.

Pixi Glow Tonic £9.99 - People in the blogging world have been raving about this tonic water for ages, but it's fairly expensive, so I didn't want to try it and then hate it, so this sample is great as it allows me to give it a go.. for free (? no really not free, I paid for the box... but still)

L'Occitane Shampoo and Conditioner (Full Size £17.00 each) - I would never pay £17.00 for shampoo or conditioner, but I have super long hair, and these are meant to be relaxing (as the contain essential oils), so I'm going to use these on my next pamper evening, it's going to be so relaxing!

Bourjois Colour Boost Lip Crayon £7.99 - I already own the red shade of this and absolutely love it, so much, it's so easy to apply, it stays in place for most of the day (I only have to touch up after I eat lunch, and dinner), and the colour is incredible. In the box I recieved the pink shade, which is basically a 'your lips but better' shade, so I'm so happy I have this, like you have no idea, I really want to collect all the shades! (I sound a bit mental...)

Caudalie Divine Oil (Full Size £27.00) - This is a multi-purpose product, which is exiting. You can massage it into your skin and hair for a great summer glow and you can add it to your bath for a super relaxing bath. So, what more do you need?!

Seekers Of The Sun Luxury Temporary Tattoos £4.99 - I haven't really go into these, but next year (I know, very planned in advance), I'm planning to go to the 'Common People' music festival (in Southampton, where I'm studying), and so I will probably use them then, and probably not before, but they're really handy things to have.

Balance Me Super Toning Body Polish (Full Size £18.00) - This is an ultra all in one! It's a exfoliator, toner and a moisturiser all in one!!!! OMG!!!! So, you massage it into problem areas to remove dead skin cells and smooth out the skin, so it's going to be great! I just know it!

Eucerin Transparent Sun Spray £16.50 - This is a super high SPF (It's SPF 50!), and it's just a simple spray on, it doesn't need rubbing in, so your hands don't get sticky or anything. So its a really hassle free SPF so, really really handy.

Latest In Beauty #2: Capitol FM




This is the second box I picked up, and I think it may be my favourite because some of these products are what I've been wanting/looking for for a long time, but here is what it contains;

Latest in Beauty has teamed up with Capitol FM, to create a box full to the brim of holiday, festival and party picks for the summer this year! For a box worth over £57.00, paying £17.95 for this is an absolute bargain. I have to admit, I picked this up because I was going to buy some of these products anyway, and it actually made it cheaper to buy all the other products with it, so who could complain really?!

Carmex Moisture Plus Lip Balm in Berry £2.99 - I absolutely love Lip Balms that have a colour tint to them, because you can both place a colour on your lips and care for them at the same time. And Carmex are renowned for their Moisture Plus Lip Balm, so this was something I would've eventually picked up anyway.

Colab Sheer and Invisible Paris Floral Fragrance £2 - I really wanted one of these, as they're meant to rival the Batiste Shampoos (which are one of my staples), and so this is one of the products that drew me to this box. It's in a small, travel friendly size, and so ideal for in my handbag and for weekends away. Absolutely perfect.

Dr.Organic Organic Dead Sea Minerals Bio-Plasma Mud Mask £7.99 - I love face masks, and although I have dry skin, and so sometimes find these types of skins dehydrating. But I love to give my face a good cleanse, so I'm exited to try this anyway.

Fudge Urban Hair Art Sprays £3.99 - I've always wanted to try some products in my hair that will colour the ends and I can just wash them out. Because, I love my natural hair, and I'm really indecisive, and so it's great that I don't have to commit to anything (haha!). This is a purple (my favourite colour) hair spray which I'm going to spray onto the bottom of my hair like a dip dye... really exited for this!

Hawaiian Tropic Satin Protection Ultra Radiance £6.49 - This is a factor 30 sun lotion, which says it's ultra radiance. Not much more I can say about this really, it's basically a moisturiser with factor 30 in it.

I Love... Perfectly Peachy Bath and Shower Creme (Full Size £2.99) - I'm looking for a bubble bath come shower gel for my bath that isn't lavender scented (which I use to help me sleep), and so if this is nice, it's really affordable to buy the full bottle (as this is only a sachet), so if I like it I will definitely buy more.

Malin and Goetz Trio - I've never even heard of this company, but they're little samples of three of their products that contain extra natural elements to supply extra vitamins into your face. So, I can't wait to use these three products;
Grapefruit Face Cleanser
Vitamin E Face Moisturiser
Lip Moisturiser 

MUA Mega Volume Mascara £3 - I really love MUA makeup, and my current mascaras are coming to the end of their life, and so if this works, it'll be great to replace one of them.

MUA Eyeshadow Pallet £4 Poptastic - I don't often wear bright coloured eyeshadows, but I really love the gold colour here and I know I will get a lot of wear out of this colour, and it's just a great addition to my collection anyway.

Nails Inc Gel Effect Nail Polish £15.00 Soho Place - There is one of these in all three boxes I have, and this one is the most gorgeous green, with the subtle hint of blue undertones. It's so bright and vibrant, and so summery. I am head over heals with this colour.

Latest In Beauty #1: Get The Gloss




I went on Latest in Beauty this week, and bought three boxes which all arrived yesterday, and so the next three days, I'm going to write my initial impressions of the boxes. I absolutely love these boxes, because you can see what you're getting in the box before it actually arrives, and it's not a subscription service, so you can just pick them up when and if you want it.

Latest in Beauty teamed up with Get the Gloss to bring together this box of 8 summer must-haves, at at the combined worth of over £85, Latest in Beauty are selling it for only £19.00! So, I can't wait to give some of these products a go.

Philip Kingsley Swimcap £12.00 - My hair gets stripped by chlorine, because it's so long and thick, my hair care gets excessive, very quickly, and so I love to try new things out. This says it helps to protect your hair against damage from swimming pools, so.. this will be helpful all year round, as I love to go swimming!

Nails Inc. Gel Effect Nail Polish £15.00 (Regents Place) - I've recently become obsessed with Gel Effect Nail Polishes (mainly the Barry M), and although I wouldn't personally pay £15.00 for nail polish, I am exited to see how much the money difference will make in terms of chipping (as I think the Barry M Gellys are incredible). Also, the colour is absolutely gorgeous! Have you seen it?!

Aurelia Probiotic Skincare Refine and Polish Miracle Balm (Full Size is £57.00) - This is a small tester of a product that claims to be both an instant exfoliator and a face mask in two. The full price of this is really expensive, so I'm so exited to try this and see what it does for my skin.

Salon Science AquaCacteen Hydro Soothe Cooling Spray £14.00 - This is to help re-hydrate your scalp, which is a problem most common in summer. The bottle you get is huge, and I doubt I will ever get through this, but it's a nice product to have in my cupboard for the days my scalp feels like it needs it.

Anne Semonin Eye Express Radiance Ice Cube (Full Size is £43.00) - You get one sample of these eye solutions for dark circles and puffiness. It's formulated with marine spring water with minerals, it helps refirm and moisturise the skin. And I only have one, so I'm guessing it's one of those products that has noticeable results with just one use.

Elemental Herbology Cell Plumping Facial Hydrator SPF8 (Full Price £42.00) - Just a simple (but very expensive) face moisturiser. I have a lot of problems with the skin around my eye, and am yet to find 'the perfect' (if that's problem) face moisturiser. And so if this does actually work, I am so desperate I would probably buy it...

Bourjois Aqua Blush £8.99 (Pink Twice) - I saw this in Boots a couple of weeks ago and nearly picked it up (good job I didn't really). It's a liquid blush that's applied with a 'chubby' stick, and I am so exited for this. It's quite sheer. and so very blendable but also buildable. So I am so exited! You have no idea!

Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse OR £14.95 - Not entirely sure what this is for.. It says its an oil for hair, face and body for moisturising, but it's glittery and gold... so not entirely sure what I'm doing with this, but I'll give it ago, and report back if I find some strong opinions about it.

This box is absolutely great, and I really recommend you pick it up (however, I always think these boxes are great...). You can't argue with the value for money, and if you want to find out more about it, the link is here.
