This months Birchbox is themed with the Five Senses.
Sight, Touch, Taste, Sound, Smell.
I was quite excited to receive this months box based on all of the previews from Birchbox, and watching the videos online of all the gals that received their boxes before I did.
FINALLYYYYY a REAL Stila Lip Glaze!! Holy Guacamole :-)
I have almost every color of the $1 ELF Hypershine lip glosses. I look forward to trying out the original inspiration for these affordable elf glosses. I have heard great things about these Stila Lip Glazes and I expect this wonderful gloss to live up to all my hopes.
Whose genius idea was it to create Lemongrass Yuzu "MINTS". I am going to whip out a "WHAT THE CRAP?!?!" for this product. I saw so many people getting delicious sounding Cocoa Minteas, or Chai Minteas, but NOOOO I got LEMONGRASS flavored mints. They smell like PLEDGE, and they taste like what you would imagine pledge really tastes like. This was a total disappointment. N'ough said
Annick Goutal Perfume; The last sample from Annick Goutal that I received was less than desirable to put it kindly. I did not have high hopes for this scent either, but I was pleasantly surprised. It smells fresh, citrus-y, and feminine. Simply put, I would wear this.
Ear buds! Birchbox gave us colorful ear buds :-) I will most certainly use these with my computer. Thanks Birchbox. Now I just have to learn about what the heck "spotify" is.
Boscia B.B. Cream claims to be self adjusting to all skin tones. From a first impression stand point, it appears to be slightly darker than my natural skin tone. I dont know how this will self adjust to a lighter shade? I have seen self adjusting blushes, creams, foundations etc adjust darker, but never lighter. I am really loving my Lioele Triple the Solution BB Cream, so this has some serious expectations to live up to.
Yahoo Color Club Nail Polish. I am stoked to try out this brand of polish. I have an ever growing collection of polishes and I have yet to own any Color Club Polishes. Thank you Birchbox.
Overall I would give this months box a HUGE thumbs up. I look forward to my Birchbox Anniversary coming up next month. Fingers crossed for another great box. I hope that you are all receiving fantastic boxes. Have a BEAUTIFUL WEEK
Melissa :-)
