Today I want to share with you a review for an Israeli Beauty Box - Glam Guru.
Most of you are already familiar with the monthly beauty box service which allows you to try new products at the comfort of your home. Glam Guru is a relatively new company, they launched their first beauty box six months ago, and in this post I'm going to review their fourth box, the Summer box.
The Glam Guru also offer a great service which allows you to purchase the full sized products that you receive in the box at their site, which I find to be a great initiative since it makes shopping for the things you like much easier.
My international readers will also be happy to know that the Glam Guru boxes are shipped internationally, so keep reading! :)

This time, the box that contained the products is actually a useful zipped bag, which I think is great. As I mentioned before, this box is summer box (here's my opportunity to say that I love the idea of each box to have it's own theme) and most of the products are beauty / body care related rather than makeup products, which could be found in the previous boxes.
So without further introductions, let's see what I received in my Glam Guru Summer box.

The package I received contains 3 full sized product, two travel size and one sample.

The first product is Jasmin Perfume Oil Extract (full size - 30ml, value 99 ILS /  $27)

The scent is really pleasant, it comes in a glass bottle with a pump. I personally prefer the alcohol based perfumes since I don't like tho oily feeling on my skin, but I do think that oil based perfumes last longer thanks to that. I will be defiantly doing some thinking before I give this up for someone else to enjoy, might work giving it another try.

Hand (& boady) cream by San Francisco Soap Company (travel size - 42ml, full size - 259ml, value 55 ILS / $15)

The cream absorbs easily, has a fresh and sweet scent, a great and interesting combination.

Hand care is really important to me so I frequently use a hand creme even during the hot summer time, therefore it's important to me that it will absorb well and will not leave an oily feeling. To my opinion this product does a great job and I was happy to try it.

Senscience shampoo from Shiseido labs (travel size - 50ml; full size - 300ml, value 65 ILS / $17 or 1 L, value 160 ILS / $38 )

I haven't tried this product yet but it looks promising.

According to Glam Guru, this is a shampoo that will smooth and revive your hair, great for the summer. The shampoo balances the moisture level and leaves your hair easy for combing, soft and shiny. Suits all hair types, especially dry and damaged hair.

Organic soap bar by Simply Be Well (full size - 56 gr, value 19 ILS / $5)

Moisturizing body bar, made from 100% organic palm, coconut and sunflower oils. Enriched with a high natural glycerine content and super-antioxidant blend of certified organic sunflower oil, goji berry, white tea,blueberry and soy.

To be honest, I can't recall the last time I used a soap bar. This is definitely not something I would buy in a store by myself, but I was curious to try it.
The soap bar has a fresh rosemary and mint scent, but while washing my hands and face, the skin felt tight and dry, and my skin was thirsty for some moisture. I guess I got used to all sorts of non-organic additives so now the real thing it too harsh for me. I think that someone with less dry skin will probably enjoy this soap more than I will, and in any case I think it's worth the try.

Ofra white eyeliner (full size, value 69 ILS / $19)

I was very happy to receive this product in my package since I've been wanting to try it for a while. A white eyeliner can be used to enlighten and enlarge the eye by placing it in the inner corner of the eye or on the water line, also can be used as a guideline for drawing a perfect eyeliner.

The pencil is very soft and has a medium pigment, it isn't a bright white but more natural, to me it's better that way because I love the natural look.

LCN Spa Almond Foot Lotion (sample - 5ml)

Care lotion for feet and legs. Contains almond oil and aloe-vera with a regeneration effect.

The cream has a minty and fresh scent, it absorbed surprisingly quick and left the skins smooth and soft to touch.

In the summer I refrain from using lotion on my feel because of the heavy and sweaty feeling it leaves, but this lotion surprised me by absorbing quickly and leaving a light feeling.

Overall I'm very pleased with the content of the summer box, I was happy to try these new brands and products for the first time and I liked most of them. I think this box is worth the price you will pay for it, and I'm really curious to see what the next box will contain.

I strongly recommend you to check out their site and see what they are offering, and of course if you would like to try their summer beauty box, this is the place to get it.

As for pricing, the box itself costs 65 ILS / $18 + shipping fee to your country.

The Glam Guru team will be happy to send their beauty box anywhere in the world, just contact them for pricing and more information by email: info@glamguru.co.il

I think that the price of the box is fair and the value of the products you are getting is great.

One last thing that I think worth mentioning is their great customer service, which is not taken for granted, and that's why I appreciate their efforts to please their customers.

I hope you enjoyed my review and that it made you want to know more about Glam Guru's services. If you have any questions about the products or the service, feel free to ask, I will do my best to reply.
