I have filmed my unboxing of this over on my IGTV if you want to see that then head over there! This month is not one to miss, as the value of it is over £100 which is just incredible. The Roccabox July 2020 offering is all about SUMMER and getting you sunshine ready.
Roccabox offers different subscriptions, and from looking on the site you can buy one-off boxes which appeal to you, you just need to cancel it after so the subscription doesn’t roll over.
W h a t ‘ s I n s i d e ?
Perricone MD No Makeup Instant Blur (full size 10g / RRP £45)
The star of the show! I have loved and used the Perricone No Makeup range for many years now I was SUPER excited to see this in the box…..and kind of shocked as I know how expensive the products (& skincare!) is. This is a compact containing a colourless balm that smoothes fine lines, pores and gives a lovely soft-focus finish on the skin. Perfect to use as a primer under makeup or solo. Us oldies may remember Benefit’s Dr Feelgood balm?! It’s *kinda* along those lines.
MineTan Violet Gradual Tan Foam (full size 200ml / RRP £12.99)
I’ve not used this brand of fake tan before but was really surprised and impressed by the full-size bottle. I was a bit confused about the ‘violet’ branding but this is simply to cut out any ‘orange’ tan which makes sense. I love a foam tan so I’m excited to try this out and it says it’s gradual which is even better as I just CBA with the heavy-duty, full-on tans at the moment!
MineTan Coffee Scrub (One use 30g / RRP 9.95)
I actually got this in another box recently, yet to try it out as I simply have not been tanning or getting the bod out but it’s a coffee exfoliator mixed with oils to leave your skin glowing. Not for just use with fake tan and I’m looking forward to finally trying it out.
Skimono Intense Nourishment Hand Mask (1 pair / RRP £10)
Yikes. Another product I have received recently in the other beauty box I get so worth nothing that there can often be a crossover in brands and products with these boxes and I’ve noticed that quite a lot lately. These are pre-saturated hand gloves that have a revitalising serum within to soften and nourish your hands. I’m actually going to make a executive decision to use these tonight as I just keep piling these masks into my basket and not using them!
Mudmasky – Leave-Me-On Summer Mask (40ml / £35!)
I was quite confused by this at first ; a mask with an SPF? I think from reading up on it, it’s just a really nourishing SPF cream. The only problem I have with this is it’s only SPF15 which a little low to be using on the face unless we are in UK winter. Interesting concept though and I was shocked that the 40ml size costs £35.
Banana Republic Peony + Peppercorn Fragrance Sample (1.5ml / N/A)
A Fragrance sample. I’m not a huge fan of fragrance samples as I just never use them and I always think I have quite specific tastes when it comes to fragrance, so this isn’t for me, but it’s a cute add on and extra product. Some people I know really like receiving these.
So all-in-all….this is a good box and has a REALLY super value…..for just £10?! Insane. I can forgive the fragrance sample ok, I can overlook it! But in all seriousness, I would still say have a look @ the products and even if there is a one or two you want/need/want ; go for it. Grab the box and then just cancel the subscription if you want or see what next month’s is like. It’s only my second box and both have been really good.
