At the end of June I was really excited to receive my fourth beauty subscription box by Glossybox! This month's box was curated by renowned fashion & beauty blogger Dallas Shaw. Since I absolutely loved Glossybox's collaboration with blogger The Man Repeller in January, I was definitely looking forward to this box from the moment I heard about it!

Oscar de la Renta Essential Luxuries Perfume Collection
Hair Styling Gel: Because I have very straight long hair, I don't really use styling gel much. In general, it just makes my hair look dirty/greasy. So, I wish I'd received one of the other hair products sent to subscribers (shampoo, leave-in conditioner, etc). I think this one will have to be gifted because it's just not something that really fits my personal beauty routine. Full Size $19.
Dry Oil Mist: I have really dry skin, especially during the summertime. So, I'm sure I'll get a lot of use out of this product. The consistency is definitely a little oily & slick. So, I'm a bit hesitant (for now) about using it on my face. I have used it on my arms though and I loved how quickly it moisturized my skin and how nicely it smelled! Full Size $8.
Lipstick: I'm a HUGE fan of Tarte and am absolutely in love with the Glamazon 12-Hour Lipstick they included in the January box. So, when Glossybox revealed that a Tarte lipstick would be included in this month's box, I was definitely sold on ordering another Glossybox. This one's not quite as fancy as the Glamazon one (doesn't last as long, smaller, cheaper packaging). However, it's a full size product worth $14.50 and is definitely still very good quality. It's got very subtle color (unlike the Glamazon one), which is great for daytime. It's also jam-packed with moisture. Full Size $14.50.
Nail Polish: I was not a big fan of the color I received (Whirlwind Romance). It's a nude shade that I thought would go on fairly opaque and neutral. However, it's more of a sheer tone with a subtle hologram effect. I found the color made the white tip of my nails look especially pink through it. Overall, it just wasn't my taste. I would have preferred one of the colors that I saw some other subscribers received. Full Size $12.00.
Overall Verdict: A+! Again, I was really pleased with my Glossybox. Although not all of the products were a perfect fit for me, I still feel like I got great value for the money ($21). I think Glossybox's collaborations are its best boxes. So, I look forward to ordering the next one!
