June's Glossybox Unboxing

My favourite time of the month (after pay day of course) has finally come around again - the delivery of Glossybox. After all there really is nothing better than coming home to a little box of beauty treats to greet you after a long day in the office. 

Contents:
Manna Kadar Glo Illuminator - £22.50
Batiste XXL Volume Spray - £4.29
Black Diamond Peel Off Mask - £4.95 for 3
Himalaya Herbals Face Wash - £3.29
Sleek Power Plump Lip Crayon - £5.50
111 Skin Bright Eye Lift Gel - £110.00

With the weather finally starting to warm up the June Glossybox includes five products to help create an effortlessly chic look this summer.

The first product to catch my eye this month was the Black Diamond peel off charcoal mask. With blackhead removal taking the beauty world by storm I've been looking for a new mask to put to the test for myself (fingers crossed it's not too eye watering!). 

As someone who relies heavily on dry shampoo, I was also very excited to see a full sized bottle of the Batiste "Oomph My Locks" XXL Volume Spray. As well as claiming to provide the "ultimate volume boost" Batiste also claims the product will strengthen and care for hair, bonus!

Batiste 2 in 1 Shampoo & Conditioner*

Whilst there's nothing I love more than the feeling of clean & styled hair, I'm the laziest person ever when it comes actually washing my locks. So - like many girls - I find myself reaching for dry shampoo on a regular basis in an attempt to keep up the appearance of clean hair for as long as possible.

When it comes to dry shampoo Batiste is my go-to brand - so when I spotted the new "Invisible dry shampoo & conditioner" in my local Superdrug, I knew this was a product I simply needed to try.

Similar to regular dry shampoo, the new 2 in 1 product aims to banish oily roots whilst also working to nourish ends to reduce dryness... Perfect for someone like me, who finds their hair tends to get dry rather than greasy (thanks bleach!).

I decided to put this product to the test one evening before heading out for drinks (being far too lazy to actually wash my hair..). I followed the instructions by simply spraying & massaging onto my roots before misting over mid-lengths & ends - then brushing/styling as usual.

The first thing I instantly noticed was that there was no "chalky" feel to my hair that comes with regular dry shampoo (something I personally hate). There was also no white/powdery residue left on my roots, leading me to believe that this product really does live up to it's "invisible" name. I also noticed that - whilst the excess oil on my hair was absorbed pretty quickly - it took a little longer for the "conditioning" effect to kick in. With the ends of my hair feeling noticeably softer around an hour after use (something to remember whilst getting ready).

When it comes to price the 2 in 1 is a little more expensive than your regular Batiste Dry Shampoo (retailing at £4.49 compared to £2.99) so I'd say that if you find your hair is more on the greasy side, it's probably worth sticking to the original. However if - like me - you tend to suffer with dry hair between washes (or happen to also hate the chalky feel) then I'd definitely recommend giving this a try for yourself!
