Last month I unwrapped my very first Roccabox and pretty much died. Okay, so I'm being a bit over-dramatic, but legit; the packaging, branding, dat rose gold and all the products inside had me [as the kids of today would say] seriously shook. And when June's curation; the Twenty6 Style Edit* arrived with me; it happened all over again. Texted my mates mid-flow in the group chat 'brb, ded' and just sat and drooled at it for a while. I mean, just look at it - you instantly see why I struggle to contain my emotions and over-excitable swearing on Roccabox day, right?
I don't think I've ever seen more Instagrammable, blogger-friendly packaging in my life tbh. Pink, rose gold and marble. It's like Roccabox HQ live in my mind and channel my life goals and interior dreams.
I guess if you need more information to make your judgement on this box [aside from me just yelling PINK! ROSE GOLD! MARBLE!] I could also tell you that Roccabox is a subscription box packed full of amazing beauty products, hand-picked by a different beauty blogger each month [this month's choice being Jessica Harris, the face behind TwentySixStyle.com.] And that July's Roccabox is a collaboration with The Sunday Girl - which looks amazing and is one I know a lot of people are excited about. And that it also costs just £10 + P&P - which is super reasonable for a consistently freaking awesome beauty box; with many full size products.
When you place your order for Roccabox's monthly beauty box subscription, you'll be billed for your first box on the day you place the order - and it'll wing its way to you in just a matter of days. Thereafter, you'll be billed on the 1st of every month and receive your box within a week of this - but you're not tied in to anything at all, so you can log in and cancel at any point, with no penalties or pure baffling legal agreements. Just buy what you want, simple. Here's what you can expect from June's Twenty6 Style Edit.
Olverum Bath Oil Mini, RRP £27 [Full Size]
Can we just take a minute to agree that Olverum's branding and packaging are pretty much life goals? I'm obsessed with the simplicity and minimalist chic of this travel-sized bottle - and despite never having heard of this brand before, this instantly makes me love them. How can you even take a bad photo of such beauty?!
I've heard great things about this brand from other bloggers, so I'm saving it for a soak in the tub where I can actually lie back and relax in it; rather than climb in the bath and spend my time in there scheduling tweets for the week and catching up on emails. Its formula is supposed to be super luxurious and boasts essential oils to soothe the body AND mind. And any excuse to spend less time with other humans and more time in the bath is fine with me.
Svelte Super Tea, RRP £3.49 [full size, this is just one teabag]
Use code ROCCA15 for 15% purchases on their website
I've been enjoying trying out new flavours of tea recently, since my sexy sasspot friend Cally treated me to some sachets. And this tea is a particular flavour from We Are Tea that I haven't tried before and a brew that's good for you; so it's like a double whammy. PLUS the fact it's healthy totally cancels out that I'll probably drink it whilst eating cake, right?
This bad boy nourishes skin, energises and boosts the old immune system. It has a rich blend of nettle, dandelion, seaweed, ginger and fennel which work to heal the gut, have anti-inflammatory properties, improve skin and boost your metabolism; so it's probably just a smidge better for me than a fat old brew from Maccy D's.
Vintage Cosmetics Company Eyelash Curlers, RRP £7
www.thevintagecosmeticscompany.com
Use code ROCCABOX to grab a free hairband with any purchase on their website
These eyelash curlers are as great as they look - pretty and stylish, yet sturdy, robust and extra squeezy; to really give your lashes that extra boost. They're almost too pretty to use, but from the moment I picked these up I could tell they were going to be bloody brilliant, so sod it; I'm using them!
I've tried a few bits now from this brand and I have to say, they've yet to disappoint me. Their range of beauty products and accessories is vast as, man. And all really good quality; packed in super cute packaging. And we all know I'm a sucker for a pretty package [ooh-errr, so much inneundo!]
Bloomtown Botanicals Roll-on Infused Oil, The Rose Garden, RRP £4.80
Grab 20% off using code NIKKI20 on their website
Omg omg omg. Bloomtown are one of my favourite natural brands of all time in the world ever [see this post for some more over-excited rambling about my deep and undying love for them] and I was made up to see them featured in this month's Roccabox too. They deserve worldwide recognition; their products are beautifully packaged, blended and fragranced - and this roll-on [which I've actually already tried and wept over before, haha] has gone straight into my Bloomtown Shrine.
There are [very] few things on God's green earth which smell more heavenly than The Rose Garden. I'm obsessed with this roll-on. It smells like Summer, happy memories, holidays and people I love; captured in a pretty glass bottle - and I'm forever rolling it onto my neck and wrists so I can just bask in its loveliness. It proper lifts my spirit, and its beaut blend of essential oils and Vitamin E also work to combat dry skin / split ends. I just want to bathe / live in a big tub of it forevz, tbh.
Bellapierre Kiss Proof Lip Créme, in shade Incognito, RRP £20
Okay so, I'm fully in love with this kthxbai. This lip creme is incredible and I am just so, so impressed with it. It's the perfect matte nude - very Kardashian-esque / Instagrammable and it lasts forever. Kiss proof is right; you could neck on dead, dead hard wearing this and it wouldn't betray you in the slightest. It's more than I'd ever pay for a lip product ever in my life, but tbh; it is well worth it.
This amazing liquid lippy glides on like a cream dream, before setting into a gorgeous matte finish; which isn't too drying or crusty on the lips. So it's kiss proof and kiss inducing - because it looks so darn good! It looks just like the lip colour all those hot girls on Insta Explore have on their lips; and I'm enjoying pouting at the mirror and pretending I'm one of them, hahahaaaa.
Just look at it - isn't that every #bbloggers nude lip dream?!
I once again absolutely loved this month's Roccabox - if you're a blogger looking to find new brands / products to try and enjoy, I can't recommend it enough. Plus at just £10 plus P&P, it's super great value and a perfect monthly feature for your blog - it's pretty much impossible to take a bad photo of it <3
