October 2015 Birchbox

      Another Birchbox post since my last one was super late and I didn't want this one to be delayed either. Here's a quick look at what I got this month. The sample choices this month were all mascaras and I decided to go with the new Benefit Roller Lash. I don't really use mascara anymore but having a nice sample size mascara in my possession will be good for those sudden moments if I decide that I want to put some on. I rarely went through a full size mascara back in the day anyway. If you've been following me for awhile, you would be able to guess that the product I am most interested in trying is the Macadamia dry shampoo. I am all about dry shampoo since my fine, second day hair pretty much always needs a pick-me-up, so I am always interested in trying new dry shampoos. Overall, I am pretty content with this month's products.




Macadamia - Style Extend Dry Shampoo
Benefit - Roller Lash
N4 - Restore & Repair Oil
Biorepublic - Cucumber Breeze Soothing Fiber Mask
Too Cool for School - Dinoplatz Pearl Bay Invasion (#2 Baby pink clam) - shimmering base or highlighter

September 2015 Birchbox - You're Beautiful

      This Birchbox post is extremely delayed but it still warrants a post on my blog. Birchbox has really changed their boxes so that each month there is a different box design. Previously, it was the same plain, brown box holding the goodies, but now each one is colorful and lively. This month I received a nice variety of products, ranging from eye products (skin and makeup) to haircare, as well as perfume. Awesome!
      Emblazoned on this month's box are the words, "Psst...You're Beautiful." This is a nice reminder to anyone opening the box that, "Yes, we are beautiful." Beauty isn't just about the physical, it's also about the inside. A person with a beautiful, kind soul is just as beautiful as the person who has a great physique. Everyone is beautiful in their own way and many times people don't even realize it. What people need sometimes is a little more confidence. A person exuding confidence, ready to take on the world one step at a time with a smile on their face will have beautiful written all over them. We must always remember to love ourselves. ❤️
