Glossybox August

It's that time of the month again! This time it is a "High Flyers" edition with travel-appropriate products from around the world. 


Firstly the eye lash curler jumped out at me as I have just recently started using mine again. I learned a good tip too - to heat the curler briefly with a hairdryer to get more of a curl - which works! Just be careful not to overheat it. This curler is by Emite,  a Swedish brand, and costs about £20 sterling. Curling your lashes can make all the difference!


The MakeUp Remover pen by Oceane, a Brazilian brand, would be handy for touch ups or in an emergency. It comes with 3 refills. It is meant to be used for removal of excess makeup around eyes and lips. It feels like those jumbo colouring markers children use and when rubbed on the skin, feels slightly wet. Quite strange! This is not available in the UK or Ireland yet.

The Jelly Pong Pong 2-in-1 crayon can be used as an eyeliner and an eye shadow.  It gives a very thick, precise line and seems pretty pigmented. This costs £10.50.


The TRESemme Keratin Smooth Concentrated Rinse Off Treatment claims it returns weathered hair to its former glory in 60 seconds! I like the sound of this as I am not mad about standing around waiting for conditioners to take effect.

Finally, Urban Veda, founded on Ancient Indian principles, is one of the latest skincare ranges and I received their Daily Radiance Facial Wash, which is supposed to leave skin less vulnerable to the environment. As someone with sensitive skin, I am looking forward to trying this out.

I will try and test these in the coming weeks and let you know how they go.
