Hello, lovelies. Today is another Birchbox day! I love Birchbox days! My June box has a "Jet Set" traveling theme. I am also very happy to finally receive a BB that does NOT have a perfume sample in it. I was getting a little bit sick of them tbh. Now, onto the goodies:
 |
| June 2012 Birchbox |
 |
| LA Fresh Acetone-Free Nail Polish Remover Wipes |
 |
| Kelly Van Gogh Hair Colour Protecting & Illuminating Tonic |
 |
| Tili Bag |
 |
| Clark's Botanicals Lip Tint & theBalm cosmetics lip and cheek stain |
I just love those acetone-free wipes. They will be great to throw into my purse when I'm on the go. I also really love the Clark's Botanicals Ultra Rich Lip Tint. It has great, natural ingredients in it like shea butter, aloe, jojoba & coconut oils. It also smells great and has a neutral peachy color. The Stainiac in Beauty Queen by theBalm Cosmetics is a more reddish stain. I didn't like that it made my lips feel numb when I applied it and it also left them sticky for a bit. I do like the coloring it gives, but it had a bit of a splotchy look. I would probably choose to swipe some chapstick over it if I wore it out. The hair mist is a leave-in spray to make your hair shiny while also protecting from heat damage. The plastic bag is a cute nod towards the Jet Set theme as it can be used to store your cosmetics and travel essentials to make your trek through airport security fashionable.
I really liked this box even though it had 2 lip products in it. This works for me because even when I'm not wearing makeup, I'm grabbing something to apply to my lips. Right now my go-to is my lemon eos lip balm.
As always, if you would like to sign up for Birchbox
here is a link for you to do so. There is a wait to sign up as BB is first-come, first-serve, but it will be worth the wait to get such great samples delivered to your door for only $10 a month.
Thanks for popping in!
I would have been so bummed to find no perfume! I love fume, like, maybe more than nail polish. lol. These boxes look fun! I may have to check them out.
ReplyDeleteI have a nice little assortment of mini perfumes now. Every single BB I have gotten since October has had a perfume sample. To like it more than polish though, D: *gasp* . :-) The boxes are SO fun. It's a nice little treat for myself every month.
DeleteI am getting so sick of perfume, too. I cancelled my subscription fir the 2nd time after this box. They sent me the men's cologne... No thanks.
ReplyDeleteI would have loved the men's cologne! My husband used to be an avid cologne collector and it would have made for a nice treat for him.
