GLOSSYBOX recently released a new limited edition box in collaboration with travel bag experts at The Flat Lay Co.! They created an exclusive tropical box bag, filled with 9 premium products from brands like Volition, Borghese, Nudestix, and Voir (valued at $175+) to bring more fun to summertime. The GLOSSYBOX x The Flat Lay Co. Limited Edition Box is STILL AVAILABLE!

The Golden Ticket is also back! Only 5 subscribers will get a ticket in their bags, and they will win a Touchland Power Mist bundle ($117 value!) each. GLOSSYBOX LE boxes are sold separately from the monthly subscription box. The subscriber price is $35, while the non-subscriber price is $30.

Subscribers were able to choose between two variants of this perfume: Yuzu or Vanille. I chose Solinotes Yuzu Eau de Parfum ($15) which is inspired by the small citrus fruit from Japan! This scent puts me in such a good mood with its zesty and tangy notes. I can also smell hints of lemon, and white flowers that balance the fruity fragrance. It’s the perfect summer scent for me!

Another mood-boosting item in this curation is the Aromatherapy Associates Revive Evening Bath & Shower Oil – Deluxe Mini ($18)! It contains a blend of relaxing essential oils, including geranium, ylang ylang, patchouli, and sandalwood. Before heading to the bath or shower, just massage the oil all over your body and enjoy the scent to uplift your senses. This makes such a nice, little self-care treat!

To add a boost of moisture to your summer skincare ritual, here’s Borghese Crema Ristorativo 24 Moisturizer – Deluxe Mini ($34.65). It’s a lightweight moisturizer with a gel-creme consistency, enriched with BioNymph Peptide Complex and anti-oxidant vitamin E to nourish the skin while protecting it from free radical damage. Another unique ingredient is Moist 24™, which is a hydroglycolic extract of Imperata Cylindrica root, for skin hydration. This moisturizer leaves a fresh and light feeling on the skin!

Boscia Cryosea™ Firming Icy-Cold Cleanser – Deluxe Mini ($7) is a travel-friendly skincare product that invigorates the skin and keeps it cool, thus its name. It contains a unique blend of red algae, menthol, sea kelp extract, sodium hyaluronate, and sea water which helps keep the skin firm and restores its youthful glow. After 15 seconds of massaging the product on your face, you should already feel the cooling sensation. This cleanser also lathers well!

The Volition Mineral Prismatic Luminizing Shield SPF 35 ($35) provides protection from harmful sun rays – however, it doesn’t really feel like your typical sunscreen! With a lightweight, breathable, and non-greasy formula, it’s also like a skincare product that provides the skin the hydration it needs to stay plump and radiant. You can even wear it under makeup! Ingredients include licorice extract which helps reduce dark spots and hyaluronic acid which delivers a splash of moisture to the skin. It’s always great to receive products with SPF especially in summer and this one didn’t disappoint with its unique formula!

Now that we’re done with skincare, it’s time to pamper the hair and make sure it stays healthy despite the heat! SUSTEAU Moondust Hair Wash – Deluxe Mini ($13) is the perfect way to do so. It’s a powder-to-lather shampoo that cleanses well but doesn’t strip the hair off of its natural oils. Instead, it leaves the strands soft, shiny, and full of life. The formula is packed with rice protein and aloe vera to condition the hair and keep it moisturized.

Another treat for the hair is Voir Sunset Rituals Signature Conditioner – Deluxe Mini ($12)! It’s a deeply nourishing conditioner that helps reduce frizz and boost moisture for fuller-looking hair. It also promises to strengthen each strand so you can say goodbye to split ends! The consistency is rich and creamy, but it doesn’t weigh the hair down! Another thing to love about this conditioner is its lovely scent composed of citrusy and floral notes over a musky base of sandalwood.

Perfect to bring when traveling, The Vintage Cosmetics Company Makeup Removing Cloths ($9.99) are reusable and dual-sided. They are made with soft polyester, so they are gentle on the skin. Cloths are also more eco-friendly compared to single-use makeup-removing wipes, that’s why they are such a delight to use. All you need to add is water and you can already start wiping away your makeup. No cleanser is required! The side with short fibers is for removing makeup while the side with long fibers is for gentle exfoliation. There are three pieces of makeup-removing cloths in one pack!

To wrap up the limited edition box, here’s NUDESTIX NUDIES Blush – Deluxe Mini ($9) in Naughty N’ Spice. It’s a multi-tasking balm that can be applied to the cheeks, eyes, and lips for a nice pop of color and a youthful look. The formula is well-pigmented and buildable! It’s nice to bring a multipurpose item like this when traveling, which lessens the amount of products you need to pack in your bag.

I received high-quality and luxurious summer essentials from this Limited Edition box, and I couldn’t be happier! It includes a nice mix of skincare, hair care, and cosmetic products, many of which are ideal to accompany us in our summer travels to keep us looking and feeling fresh. The perfume was a nice touch as well, because they offered two variations that subscribers can choose from. I loved my pick, the Yuzu scent, because it really suits summer. Overall, the box has a total retail value of $153.64. It’s lower than the promised retail value, but it’s still a nice curation overall because of the variety and quality of the items!

Instead of packing the beauty items in a cardboard box, they put everything in a reusable box bag which you can use to bring your summer beauty essentials on the go. It features tropical prints for more summer vibes! Here’s a look:

GLOSSYBOX is a monthly beauty subscription box with at least 5-6 luxury samples – many full sizes – per month for $21.

GLOSSYBOX is a reader fave and near the top of the readers’ choice best beauty subscription box awards list!

    I loved this box! The flat lay bag itself sells for around $25, so that’s probably where the rest of the promised value is.

    This was a great box. I’m trying to resist buying it a second time.
