June 2015 Birchbox Glossybox & You Beauty (Plus Discount codes)

So this is my second month receiving these boxes and have to say I love them. I love being introduced to new products and seeing whats out on the market. For those of you that don't know, these are monthly subscriptions that are mailed to you, they are filled with beauty samples for you to try out.. they cost between 6.95 and 13.25 inc postage per month. 

So first up is You Beauty:

 Possibly my favourite this month because I really wanted to try out crown brushes and I have to say I'm super impressed!! The Calvin Klein lipstick is equally as impressive with its creamy formula and long lasting results! I loved the trio of wipes (Im one of those women that loves all those little nic naks at the bottom of my bag in case of emergencies) & the little tea samples.. I love fruit teas and green teas. The dried mango was a big hit with my kids who sat there and devoured it while watching their favourite film - nearly 2 hours peace from some dried mango - Impressed!!


Next up we have Birchbox =D

For this box you had the choice of 3 different designs, I went for French sole as the box looked the nicest... The product I was most impressed with is the Model co mascara.. Its amazing, the packaging is a bit naff - the brush is a bit too big for the opening bit thingy??? haha - but other than that I'm impressed! Next the Ren Instant firming beauty shot.. I love this.. and am considering buying full sized! It goes on so well and you can see dramatic improvements with your skin almost instantly! Now the rest :( The HIP shampoo - rubbish! The smell is awful and it just doesnt laver up properly, The balance me body wash has a citrus chemical smell to it and quite frankly smells like toilet bleach.. I think I'll give that a miss! Im not a fake tattoo kinda girl, but my kids did enjoy these :) Lastly was the Iris Prima perfume.. Its kind of a mixed review.. I do like the smell and it is long lasting butttt its a bit of an older ladies smell - Im more into young fresh scents - and this is more floral but not on trend if that makes sense? Plus at £85 I just really don't think its worth it!


Next up is Glossybox:

I have to say this is the box I look forward to receiving most each month - dare I say the pink box has its hold over me lol :) Although in my opinion they could include a bit more! I still love what came... First up the Halo wipes... Yeah I mentioned above I love anything like that.. They went straight into my bag ready for emergencies.. I haven't actually used them but I will! The tattoos - Again my kids loved them lol, The nail polish also went to my daughter as its just not my colour. The facial mist im really impressed with, its so cooling and refreshing and it just wakes up your skin. This is something I would consider rebuying :) Lastly we have the Kueshi Anticellulite Booster. This is my favourite product out of the box and has become a staple in my daily routine and I will most definitely be repurchasing this once it has finished. I use it once I get out of the shower/bath every day, it smells great and goes on to the skin easily. It absorbs well and dries quite quickly, It also doesn't leave the skin feeling sticky at all and they stay silky soft all day. I would really recommend it!!
