Junes Glossybox, late post.

I know I was supposed to update you guys on what I recived in the boxes, and I have failed you. Sorry!
I get waay too curious, and rip open the boxes and the stuff in it before I can take any photos of it.
So here's an instagram photo I took when I opened up the box. On a bench. Outside mr Confusions job. See? Way too curious.


So, for this month the theme was Sunkissed Beauty
And I recived these things!

Toni & Guy Sea Salt Texturizing Spray - Travel sized (75 ml)
 - I dont really know how to use this product.. So.. I dont have anything to say about it. :/

Moroccanoil Original Oil Treatment & Light Oil Treatment - Sample Sized (10 ml x2)
 - These products are lovely! They work wonders on my dry and brittle hair ends! 

Murad Skin Perfecting Primer, Blemish & Shine Control - Sample Sized (5 ml)
 - Have not tried it out properly, but the product is darker than my skin and it shows where I have put it on. More on this one later, perhaps. Good idea, though!

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Protective Sun Lotion - Travel Sized (59 ml)
 - SPF 15. Smells lovely! Not the regular coconut, but some more caramell. Caramellized Coconut? Nom. Not just the smell is nice, it really softens your skinn. Loving this one. All though maybe too low of a spf for me "miss 30 or more"

Anatomicals SPF Lip Balm "Never Lose Your Cherry" - Fullsized (15 ml)
 - SPF 8. The text on the box and on the balm is hilarious. Too bad you can't see it ;> Smells like typical chemical cherries. Candy. I like it. Very glossy. Does not add colour. Moisturizing. 

Bonus!
Femme Natural Boost - Fullsized (250 ml)
 - Yum. It went down quickly. It was a hot day, and this energydrink was really cold. 
Yeah it's an energydrink. I've drank it before. It's tasty. My glossybox note says juice from grapefruit, orange, lime, acerola and acai. And extracts from guarana, ginseng and ginger. With caffine from green coffee beans. 

A bunch of products..

Update on the video.. I have bought a tripod for the camera to stand on. Now the problem is that the usb-cord to the camera is in my parents house. And we cant find the one to mr Confusions camera.
I dont felt like doing a tutorial-video when I have no idea how it looks when Im doing it.. So it will be a while more.

In the mean time.. Here's what I got from Cocktail Cosmetics recently.


EcoTools Blush Brush. So soft! Not as soft as the Real Techniques ones though.
Nice density. Great brush!

The Konjac Sponge, with Bamboo Charcoal.
I. Frekking. Love. This. Thing.
It's so nice on the skin, leaving it slightly moisturised. I'll tell you more when I used it some more.

Lily Lolo - Pixie Sparkle
After Killer Colours Post about this shadow, I had to have it.
Gorgeous! Check out her post. It shows this shadow at its prime.

 
Everyday Minerals Blush - Girl Friday
I have never been a fan of blushes, I just did not get it.
I dont know what colour suits me, where I should put it and all that..
But when a blush appeared in my Glossybox, I've opened up my eyes for it.
So I ordered a samplesize. Now I have four blushes. 2 sample size. One mini. One full. 
And a blush brush! Yay me!

I did not do any swatches for this post.. Sorry bout that. You get to see two of the products in action though, and Im thinking about doing a post on the Konjac Sponge. 
Anything you wanna know?

Na na na na Batmaaaaan!

Oh, we went to see the Batman yesterday!
I wanted to play around with shapes, but mr Confusion was stressed out and time was short so I kept it to a black and gray smokey eye. Which I think goes well with the new Batman movies. They are dark, gray and all that. No more of the yellow logo! (which I thought of incorporating, but I went with no)

Swatch: NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream - Antwerp

 I was ordering a colourbomb for my hair, and this little sucker slip'd in the shopping basket. Impulsive buying is my thing. :')
Any who. I was not sure if this colour suited me, but now Im having problems with leaving the house without it. Which is annyoing, since I have missplaced it and I cant find it. Craaaaaap.

Oh well. As the container says, is soft. It's matte. It's a lip cream.
It's not a gloss, nor a lipstick. Just a cream. So soft. And it smells like caramell, yum!
The staying is quite like a gloss, not too well. But it's easy to put on, the doe foot is soft and handable.
And does not dry out the lips.






Bare lips 
Half bare, half Antwerp

All Antwerp!
 Miss Pleased Face!
I will buy more of these colours. Reaaaally like them!
I guess you can buy the Soft Matte Lip Cream wherever you find NYX-cosmetics.
You should really try them.
