I apologize for the delay, it’s been one crazy month! Crazy, busy, fun
So what was in this month’s fab Birchbox?!
The Details:
My absolute favorite thing this month was the Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution. I used it every day, the small sample lasted a month, and there was a very noticeable difference in my skin tone. Pregnancy always does a number on my skin, and this was an amazing help. I plan on purchasing the full size and using it religiously.
The Shu Uemura Essence was pretty sweet as well. It’s a silkening oil for your hair, and works like magic.
I can’t believe I’m actually able to say this, but, I didn’t have a chance to try out the Juice Beauty blemish clearing serum. I don’t know if it was the Kiehl’s or what? I did not have one pimple this month. Hallelujah. I also have not tried the Supersmile powdered mouth rinse, but it sounds super handy!
Ok, now for the one product I did not like. Eek. I hate even posting this, but I cannot tell a lie. I did not like Eye Rock at all. I really, really wanted to! You are supposed to apply these premade eyeliner strips to your eyelids prior to applying any makeup, moisturizer … anything. So I tried it on a day I had some time and wouldn’t be going anywhere important. Once I finally got the strip cut to fit my eye, it no longer “stuck” because I had to manhandle it so much. Even if it had stuck, the black didn’t seem to be a true black. I wanted to go over it with my Mac fluidline. Alas I gave up and whipped out my fluidline and brush, and had my eyeliner applied in 30 seconds. After spending 20 minutes trying to get the Eye Rock to stick and/or look presentable. Don’t hate me Birchbox and Eye Rock people!






























My Birch Box was almost ENTIRELY different from yours! The only item that was the same was the Kiehls and I too loved it! My other items were: BLK perfume (which I haven;t tried yet since I almost never wear fragrances), a Cayenne Pepper Chocolate sample (which scares me and it still sitting on my kitchen counter), WEI foaming face wash (which I like a lot) and a Tinted Moisturizer (forgot the brand- too glittery for my taste, but it was close enough to my complexion that I was able to legitimately give it a shot). And I am super jealous that you had clear skin for a whole month- I haven’t gone a month without SOMETHING since I was 11!
I heard they do them based on your profile, however, I didn’t know it was that different. Cool! Are you using your Clarisonic? That thing is magic too
Your birchbox sounds super fun! LoL at the chocolate on your counter!
I don’t use my Clarisonic everyday but I do still use it often.. I need to buy more heads for it. My skin has been out of whack and I need to be more regular about my “skin system”. That Kiehls product is awesome though. I really really liked it!
I feel like my saving grace has been the clarisonic paired with The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash. I use it every day in the shower, and purity at night without the clarisonic. http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P184109
Waiting for my first one to come in the mail.. So excited! Can’t wait!
Lani, you will love it
