Beauty Boxes are funny things as they’re very personal – I’ve seen beauty boxes that I’ve thought were amazing and people have complained about them, whereas I’ve seen boxes with contents that I thought were terrible and people have raved! Unfortunately the Glossybox June 2015 contents aren’t really doing it for me at all, however, I’ve seen a few social media posts saying how much they like the bits included, so it might just be me who’s not a fan.
The problem is that there’s nothing that’s really excited me in the June 2015 Glossybox as it’s a festival themed box (that seems to be the general beauty box theme this month) and I can only see myself using the spray and possibly the wipes on hot days. However, if you’re off to the festivals this year then you’ll probably like the Glossybox June 2015 contents a lot more than me!
The Monu Spa Rosewood Reviving Mist has a lovely scent and is both cooling and refreshing. It can be used on the body too, making it an ideal product for the hotter months. It also says on the packaging that it can fix make-up, so I’ll be trying that soon. I never say no to a good facial spritz so this one is like to get some use. The Halo Facial Wipes are a dinky packet of 10 wipes that’ll make for very handy make-up removal at the festivals (although I’m not commending using wipes to cleanse with!!) and for me I’ll likely use these as a general face refresher on no make-up days, like this weekend.
The Kueshi Anticellulite Booster is the product I’m least excited about, as I really can’t focus on cellulite in my general beauty routine – I just can’t! For those who are looking for a cellulite treatment though, this one sounds pretty good, and it’s a full-sized bottle you’re getting in the box. The Glossybox Flash Tattoos are another good example of a product I won’t be using – they look great with some interesting designs, but they’re definitely a waste on me. Finally there’s the Essence The Gel Nail Polish in three different shades, a turquoise green, a coral and the shade I got, an electric blue called Electriiiiiic. I might use this, but I do have quite a few nail colours to try out at the moment so we’ll see. In fairness it isn’t a bad inclusion, especially for anyone looking to add to their nail colour collection.
For me, it’s not been a great box at all, sadly. However, my hope is lifted by the mention of the July box, which is going to be inspired by all things French – can’t wait! For more info on Glossybox, head here – link.

I have definitely fallen out of love with beauty boxes. I’ve cancelled all but one of them – My Little Box. In my opinion its a far superior box, everyone seems to get them at around the same time so its rare to get spoilers and its always worth more than what I pay!
Glossy and Birch et al have lost it for me, and I just wasn’t getting that excitement any more
I’m getting closer & closer to cancelling GB.. This just doesn’t do it for me & I have a huge pile of products which I am simply “meh” about. I think I’d rather just put my money towards a product I know I like.
Maybe I’m just old & grumpy xx
I just got this box and I don’t think there’s a single thing I’ll use. Every summer box seems to include the tattoos, which I’ll never use. Plus I just don’t believe in anti cellulite products. I think this is my most disappointing Glossybox ever
I just got this exact box. I like the spray – good handbag size. The rest don’t impress me much….. X
This was my first ever Glossybox (or beauty box for that matter) and I’m kind of disappointed also. I was hoping for more make-up.
The spray looks nice & I’ll use it but it’s not something I would usually buy AT ALL.
The face wipes are something I use & always need but c’mon, I can buy those for the same price anywhere!
If I was twelve I would probably adore the false tattoo’s but at 21 I would find them embarrassing to wear.
It’s great that you get such a huge tube of the anti-cellulite stuff, but again (even though I do have cellulite) it’s not something I would use/buy. I’ve always heard that creams like this are cons anyway and don’t actually do much.
The nail polish is cute, I got the dark blue colour. It’s definitely my favourite thing in the box and the only thing I was excited to receive to be honest.
So overall as a first time Glossybox-er I’m not that impressed. From what I’ve seen of past boxes there are lots of cool things but I suppose it’s just hit-and-miss? Like Sascha however I am hopeful about the next box because of the French theme.
This is also my first GB. I’ve heard so many good things about GB, so I was excited to receive this. However, I was really letdown when I saw what was inside. I have lip balms galore. I don’t have cellulite, so that’s a waste. Don’t like lip liners. I’ll try the tube of Honey Peel and see how I like it. If they don’t get any better, I’ll vp cancel.
