Wednesday, July 24, 2013
I've always been so intrigued about beauty boxes and so I couldn't wait when I was given the chance to try the July Birchbox. and I was actually really pleased with the 5 samples I received.
Blanc Cachemire - Creme De Jour Protectrice / £54.75
This is a really gorgeous lightweight moisturiser that soaks into the skin so well!! It also smells amazing!

Beauty Protector - Protect & Detangle / £15.00
This is a leave in conditioner that you spray all over damp hair. It was surprisingly thick for a spray and I can definitely see myself using this a lot as I love leave in conditioners.

the Balm cosmetics - InStain Long Wearing Powder Staining Blush / £21.50
This is a powder blush that stays put all day. Its a lovely colour, perhaps a bit pink as I usually tend to go for peachy blushers. However it really does stain your cheek a little and stays put so well!

Laura Geller Beauty - Inkwell Gel Eyeliner / £24.50
I much prefer gel eyeliners to liquid ones so I was really happy with that however although the colour is lovely, I can't see myself getting much wear out of a purple eyeliner.

Weleda - Skin Food / £8.95
This is a really thick moisturiser that really does keep the skin super soft. However I'm not too fussed about the smell, very herbally.

The Chia Co - Shots / £4.79
Personally I'm not a huge fan of seeds however I have heard loads about Chia seeds so I'm looking forward to trying this!
Overall I was really happy with my box. I love that there are things that I just wouldn't choose in store and I think its a really great way to try new things. This has definitely made me consider subscribing to a beauty box!

ReplyDeleteMy box differed a bit to yours! Weirdly, I got the red hair product last month and the blush/chaishots in this month - they are obviously out of brands! haha xx
ReplyDeleteI love the packaging of the Instain blusher!
