This month’s theme was “Beauty Diaries” and included this card which you could fill out and take a pic and tweet for a chance to win a full size item of everything you received in your box. That would be cool!
I got Version 5 this month out of a possible 41 variations!
This box contained the following:
1. Cargo Water Resistant Blush in Los Cabos- It’s a peach shade with gold glimmer. It’s really pretty, but not unlike several blushes I already own. It’s ok though because this is the item I was really hoping I’d get since I’ve never tried Cargo products before. I also like the little tin the blush came in. Mine came in perfect condition, but I know some other ladies were not so lucky.
2. COOLA Classic SPF 30 Cucumber Moisturizer for Face-I have not tried this yet, but I wish I would have tried it today!! I just now realized it’s for the face and is a moisturizer also! I thought it was only a sunscreen. I will definitely slip this into my morning skincare routine tomorrow.
3. Hail Merry Macaroons– I’m indifferent on these little extras they throw into the box. Most of them I have enjoyed so far. It was a small sample, just 2 small macaroons, but they were delicious! Honestly, I am not a coconut person at all, but these were yummy!! Very soft.
4. Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel Sensitive-A decent sized sample! I’m excited to try this. The only other juice beauty product I have tried was the hydrating mist I got in my Ipsy bag a few month’s ago. I don’t care for it really. But this looks kind of cool. I haven’t done a peel in a LONG time. I should have done this today too, why didn’t I?!
5. Kérastase Bain Chroma Captive – Cleanse-Well well well another set of foils. I hate foil packets for multiple reasons, especially shampoo and conditioner packets because there is NEVER enough for all my hair AND I can never get the darn things open in the shower!! I did use these today, but I had to run out of the shower dripping wet for some scissors and all I had was my eyebrow scissors! I hated to use them, but desperate times call for desperate measures. I ended up needing all 3 packets to wash my hair. I did like the way it lathered and smelled. My hair does feel quite nice.
So there you have it! Box version 5 and I’m decently happy with it! Out of all the variations I saw, this is one of the ones I’d have rather had. I think it was a bit of a weak month for Birchbox.
