hey guys welcome to planning with crystal so today's unboxing is glossybox for june 2022.
this month's theme is summer rendezvous so glossybox kind of sent me this to unbox i've
been unboxing it for quite a while now but i was a paid up member of glossybox prior to that
so this glossybox is a uk based subscription it retails at 13.25 a month although you can get it a
lot cheaper if you sign up for longer and you can get your first box for 10 pounds using the code
underneath the video and there's links discount codes to many different things as well so you can
save yourself some money on your next beauty haul so in this video i'm gonna unbox it for
you and we're just gonna have a look at all the products that come in this month's collection
and you can let me know what you think so they have gone to cards and qr codes
instead of having a leaflet which is fine when it works i cannot the life of me get my phone or any
other device i own to scan this code i don't know what's going on i don't know if there's a flaw
with the code i don't know if the like background is playing havoc with it i've even downloaded
special apps on my phone none of them can read that barcode so if you get this box please let
me know if you can read the barcode because yeah it's been a bit of a nightmare but i still have
all the information i need to tell you about the products so we're just going to jump right into it
so it's a standard glossy box that light pink color like sometimes these special editions
and stuff this month is just a standard one again standard interior and stuff and the tissue paper
and the ribbon and stuff all very very standard and it's quite a light box this month so the
first product is a sneak peek from last month's box so we kind of knew we were getting this
and it is a product by l'occitane and it is the hand cream so this is the 20 shea butter version
now they do a lot of hand creams pretty well known for the hand creams this one in particular
is their number one best seller it's won all kinds of awards and it's an amazing intensive hydrating
hand cream personally i find this choice a little bit odd for like a summer box because
i don't know hand cream feels like more of a winter thing but it is a really good product
i can't knock that i just think it seems like a strange time to have it in there so i've used this
many many times before i sometimes struggle just lightly with shea butter it doesn't always like
agree with me just lightly sometimes it irritates my skin so i'm not gonna apply it but it is
a nice kind of thick texture it smells a little bit to me kind of soapy it's that kind of scent
so i don't love the scent either but from what i remember it was a really good hydrating hand cream
so i'm sure you'll love it but isn't it strange to have this in a summer box then we've got
a serum and this is the highest value item in the box it's by dr eve ryuth which is not a brand i'm
familiar with it's pretty expensive though this so this is the vitamin c and hyaluronic acid
night moisturizer and it's a limited edition it's 60 ml or 2.02 fluid ounce and it says to apply a
pea-sized amount into your face and massage it in at night so packaging-wise they haven't given us
the standard packaging that you would buy this product in which i always think it's a bit of
a shame because then it almost devalues it a little bit because you don't feel like you're
getting a product worth like 50 odd pounds because actually they put it in like a cheaper packaging
how do you feel about that is it just me that thinks that this is what it looks like at the top
and it seems like a kind of odd packaging to squeeze
like this type of product out like i feel like because it's quite a rigid hard kind of container
i feel like as we get further down the products it's going to be difficult to get the product out
because i think it's going to get stuck but we'll see when we we'll cross that bridge when we come
to it shall we so this is what it looks like so it's like a light lotion kind of texture
it has got a little bit of a citrus scent but i think that will have been added as opposed
to it being like a natural scent because vitamin c doesn't naturally smell like that
but yes it's an interesting product i like the fact that it's like a new brand i've never heard
of it might not be a new brand it might be a brand that's new to me but i like the fact that it's
like new in that sense but the packaging like i said it just kind of cheapifies it a little bit
for me i don't know the next product everyone's gonna get is from green frog botanic and i think
i've heard of green frog before i think they have it in selfridges so this is made using
100 vegetable fats and 90 natural ingredients and it's a 15 gram soap lemongrass scented and it's
got no parabens no sls no als and it's a carbon neutral product it's cruelty free and it's vegan
so it's all good the only thing i would say it's quite small it smells gorgeous if
you like the scent of lemongrass of course that's what it smells like smells gorgeous smells just
like lemongrass but it just feels a little bit not super duper exciting and the size and
everything it reminds me of like you're spending a night in a hotel and they leave this by the sink
it's not it's just not that exciting it doesn't feel like a treat and i feel like with beauty
boxes you should open it and be like oh look at all these amazing beauty treats for me that's kind
of how i want to feel when i open them so yeah i mean i'll use it and i love the fact that it's not
got sls in because that irritates my skin and many other people's just don't realize it i'm not going
to go on about that again but yeah it just doesn't feel very exciting then we have got a product from
ciate london it's a bamboo bronzer powder bronzer now forgive me if i'm wrong i do a lot of beauty
unboxings but did we not get a ciate london product in the last glossy box or was it another
of the beauty boxes i don't know i just don't get excited about this anymore so they put it in sort
of cheaper packaging because it is a sample and it says do not sell all over it which is fine but
everything about it that just the packaging is just cheapened for these boxes sometimes
so this is what it looks like inside so it's got some stars on it like that a lot and it's in
the shade palm island so from the research i've done there's like three different shades you
can get i think this is like the medium kind of bronze so it is a powder bronzer
and it looks like it's quite matte it looks like it might need quite a lot as well actually
like a funny kind of brown color it's almost not even really showing up on the camera
it's there it's there just like you need quite a lot of it it's one of those it makes me worry that
it's going to look like a dirty mark on your face as opposed to bronzer but what i do if i find a
bronzer i'm not massive bronzer wearer anyway as you can see i'm super pale probably should wear
bronzer but i do if i get products like this and i think i'm not going to use that as a bronzer they
actually make really good eyeshadows so i'll use it for that if nothing else but yeah not
super excited i don't particularly think they have the best formulation or anything ciate london and
i just feel like sometimes when brands put their products all their products in the beauty boxes
it devalues the brand for me and it's like well i would never buy any of those products because
i get them in the beauty boxes all the time again let me know what you think about that so the fifth
product in the box this month will be one of three items now the box i have been sent is the same as
the box that new customers get so if you're a brand new customer this should be the item that
you get if you are a current subscriber you will get one of two other products so i'm gonna tell
you what the other two products are and then we will get into what i've got and what you'll
get if you're a new subscriber okay so current subscribers you will either get by philosophy
the purity cleanser which is a deluxe sample worth six pounds or you'll get the full auger
oxygen glow cream which is worth 10 pound again a deluxe sample i've used both of these products
philosophy purity cleanser is a pretty decent kind of staple cleanser personally it irritates my
skin so i can't use it but from what i understand about it and apart from the fact that it irritated
me it seemed like a pretty staple cleanser nothing too exciting but kind of nice enough
and the falaga oxygen glow cream would probably be my preference out of the two i felt like that
just had kind of more benefits for the skin and it does a bit of anti-aging and things as well so
that's quite a nice product so if you are a new subscriber then you will have received the same
products as me which is a pair of eye masks so these are by star skin vip and they are the gold
mask eye revitalizing luxury gold foil eye masks travel friendly non-water-based
83 rows of jericho apparently vip treatment so it says start with clean dry skin remove
masks from protective layers apply under the eyes leaving a space between the mask and the lash line
leave on for 10 to 15 minutes and discard gently pat in remaining serum do not rinse so yeah i've
had these before as well these are pretty nice although they have got perfume in so if you're
sensitive to like perfume around your eyes they've not got perfume in they're slightly
perfumed it's one of the kind of ingredients lower down the list but because they've got
perfume in if you've got really sensitive eyes you probably best off giving these a miss to be honest
now they say they're worth six pounds i don't know that i would buy these for six
pound personally although i probably would pay six pounds for some other eye masks so it just
depends on how well they work for you i guess so to say that this one's box is worth over 80 pounds
based on the rrp yes i guess it is i mean like i said the nighttime moisturizer is quite
high rrp but i always think is it actually worth it to me as a customer like will i love and use
these products and for me this box is a little bit of a miss if i'm honest with you there's nothing
in here where i'm like oh yeah yeah i'm so excited to use it like usually there'll be at least one or
two that i'm really excited to see or intrigued about and in all honesty i don't feel like that
this month so much as i appreciate the sentiment review it's really important that i'm honest and
in all honesty i'm not happy with this one's box i think they could have done a lot better i mean
i don't even feel like it's a summer box the only thing that feels slightly summery is the bronzer
but a winter hand cream a soap it just feels a little bit like they're throwing whatever in
and unless this moisturizer is like spectacular then that might kind of bring it back for me i'm
just not that excited but let me know in the comments what you think and let me know what
you think about this idea of like a lucky dip for the last item so like i said the fifth item
it will be one of three depending on what kind of subscription you're on
and yeah i don't know part of me likes the fact that you don't know which item you get in
how do you feel about that how would we feel about the whole box being like a lucky dip and
not knowing which product you're gonna get then i guess that wouldn't be like a curated collection
would it let me know your thoughts i'm just talking out loud like i said if you are new to
glossybox and you want to sign up for a box there are lots of different deals and offers and things
available for your first box so i'll list them underneath i have got other beauty videos on the
channel if you like watching beauty videos and reviews and stuff like that and there's lots of
links and discount codes underneath if you do want to save yourself a bit of money and do a
bit of beauty shopping so let me know in the comments what you think of this month's box

producing and i'd love it if you subscribe to the channel and click the notification
