I feel like all my subscriptions knew I had the week off and sent everything all at once. I received my Birchbox quite early this month, and it is box number 5.
Oh my, is that another lipstick in my Birchbox? Why yes. Yes it is. I think they love me.
ModleCo's Party Proof Lipstick in Get Naked: isn't my favorite as far as quality and pales in comparison to last months LAQA&CO. While the coverage isn't very smooth, opaque, or even very matte (as advertised), the color is actually quite nice on me. It is also light enough that I can get away with the uneven coverage. I don't plan to repurchase this, but I am using it happily.
The Curl Keeper by Jonathan Torch: is a great sample size at 1 oz. I do have curly hair, but I just got it chopped into my beloved standard pixie, so I am not seeing much difference with it at the moment. When it gets a bit of length to it I think it will be easier to tell.
Benta Berry G-1 Moisturizing Face Cream: is not going on my face, as it is quite heavily scented and my skin is very sensitive. It is a French item and while I usually trust their take on beauty items completely, I will stick with their unscented .
Juicy Couture, Couture La La: I don't wear perfume out side of very special occasions, however this is a very nice, clean, and feminine scent.
Birchbox Bobby Pins: These are so cute! I don't have enough hair for them right now, but I will hang on to them for a bit. They grip the packaging quite fiercely, so I expect they would need to be worn with some care.
Overall these were great items, although they really weren't all up my alley. Birchbox is only $10/mo, and for every item reviewed you get 10 points to save up and use in their online shop. If you would like to learn more you can visit them at:
