The last of my scent boxes that arrived today was the grapefruit box. I have really liked these boxes and all three of these for $36.99 including DHL postage is amazing value. But what did I get in this box?

The second of my scentboxes that arrived today was my baby powder box. This was the one I was least excited by as i have a toddler and I have a lot of products with that smell, including baby powder. But what was in it?

Degustabox June 2014

Image
This months Degustabox came on the 25th and as per normal I was overjoyed to see it arrive and loved tracking it on DPD's interactive website.  Last months was mainly savoury so I hoped for sweet items but what did I get? The first item in the box was consumed over a day and a half as I am ill and I was feeling sorry for myself. but was really great and easy to drink. This is Lambrini Strawberry and it had a little fruity taste. This has a rrp of £3.29 The next item was from a brand I really like as we buy their fruit yoyos already. I have tried these and really like them as they are whole with no added sugar. These are from BEAR and are the Alphabites, so like alphabetti spagetti but for breakfast. But these still taste sweet due to coconut blossom nectar and taste delicious. These are worth £2.69. The next items in the box are two of Be Fast Breakfast drinks and I received Banana and Chocolate. These were really nice and were 200 calories ea

Memebox hair and body v. 2

Image
This is the second memebox that I have received this week and it is the Hair and Body 2 box. To be honest this is the first disappointing box I have had in a while, although that is partly because the original hair and body was so amazing. I have bought the third one now so I hope that one is a little better. But, back to this box and what I received.

Memebox office essentials

Image
This is the first of the two memeboxes that I have received this week. This is the office essentials box and I loved it. But what was in it? The first item in the box were two packs of the Pure Smile Refresh Tissue Citrus Punch. These are little wet wipes and these smell citrusy and would be great to refresh hands and faces and to clean up spills, particularly great when you have a toddler. These are worth $3 for the two packs. The next item in the box is the Label Young Shocking Toner. This is a multi use toner that combines a toner, lotion and an essence and will hydrate your skin and help with the oil balance of your skin. This has a gel like texture and is priced at $28 for 250ml.   The next item in the box is from Hope Girl and it is their 140 Super Lash Mascara. According to the leaflet this will give the longest lashes you have ever had . I just love the super cute packaging. This is full sized and has a price of $22. The next item in

Current MEMEBOX code for anyone wanting to try MEMEBOX and some money off selected boxes.

I have found a Memebox code to get $15 off an order meaning a lot of boxes are going to be about $15 so less than a tenner in uk pounds including postage. This makes the boxes cheaper than uk boxes, except youbeauty. For anyone interested the code is TRYMEMEBOX and it valid until about the 6th of July 2014. Additionally if you use my banners below and to the side you should be able to get $3 off the following boxes: Memebox from nature, Free from Oils & troubles 3, Skin Care, Burst of color, superbox #31 herbal cosmetics, superbox #24 waxing care, superbox #34 dermocosmetics 2, superbox#30 aloe vera, superbox#33 collagen cosmetics and superbox #35 fermented cosmetics 2.

Bonus box with my June box offer (April Glossybox)

Image
I restarted my glossybox sub this month with a code and as part of the deal I received this box free and I just wanted to show you what I received. This was my free box and it was a Glossybox from April, probably from their stockpile of boxes. But what did I receive?

Glossybox June 2014

Image
Before I say anything I know I said I wouldn't return to Glossybox but when they sent me an email offering me a free box worth £30 if I re-signed up to monthly contract I couldn't resist especially as I had seen that the box this month was worth at least £45 and additionally I have dropped Love Me Beauty for the moment as their boxes seem to be going to downhill. But, anyway, enough of that, and back to my box. What did I get in my box?

Nerdblock June 2014

My Lootcrate June box came this week and I was quite excited. But what did I receive?

Tosowoong total skincare set with free memebox from nature.

Image
I ordered the Tosowoong total skincare set from memebox and I was really excited as I have wanted to try something like the clarasonic for a while. When they offered one on the membox website I was tempted and resisted but when they offered it as part of a package for $90 that included a free superbox that I was eyeing up I took the plunge and bought this package. But was in it?

Orange and coral lips... Products I have tried 2014

Image
I always say I have fairly dark lips so I decided to show you my natural lip colour so you can see the difference that these lip products make so you can see what difference they make to me, although they may look different on you in different lights as you have different skin tone and natural lip colours. I have to admit that I rarely follow trends in anything but I am for once seeming to loving a trend in makeup and that is the emergence of a lot of orange and coral lip colours on the make up scene and since buying an orange lip colour when I was holiday up north at the beginning of this month my collection has increased and although I don't really have many I thought I would show you the 9 that I have.

Nerdblock classic June 2014

Image
My nerdblock classic box came this morning and I was really excited as I knew that this was a double T shirt month and there was a doctor who item but I had managed to avoid looking at spoilers like I had some months. But what was in it?

Birchbox June 2014

Image
Birchbox have really been on the ball the last few months and I was worried that my box this month wouldn't be good to balance these boxes out but how wrong was I. This is my June box and I am in a love affair with Birchbox following this box.

Youbeautydiscovery June 2014

Image
This is my youbeautydiscovery box for June. I wasn't too impressed by this months selection tbh because there was only a few items I really wanted and I was lucky to get one as one had sold out by midday on the 1st of June. So what was in my box this month?

Memebox #11

Image
The second box that I got on Monday after my holiday was this box and I was really excited as I love memebox and I knew it had arrived while I was up north on the coast. This is my Memebox #11. So, what was in this box?

Lovelula box June 2014

Image
My second lovelula box of my three month sub arrived on friday of last week while I was on holiday and I collected this on monday and I can finally review it today for you as my schedule is less crowded than it was at the beginning of the week. However, this is a review, so what did I get in my lovelula box this month? (everyone gets the same in the lovelula boxes every month so all subscribers got it too)
