Birchbox: June 2013


It’s that time again! Another installation of my monthly subscription to Birchbox and this month they have revamped their look. From the look of their website and logo, down to the really cute black and white chevron lining of their boxes! 
I was really excited to see what this box had in store and I definitely wasn't disappointed. As it is summer and travel is in force for most, this month’s theme is Wanderlust.
We have a couple of really fun trips planned, one in particular is this weekend, and I know I will be able to use the goodies I received. Without further ado, let’s jump into the products!


Just a quick overview if you have yet to hear about Birchbox:
Monthly subscription service for $10/month where you receive 4-5 high end beauty products/samples sent to your mailbox. By filling out a profile on their website, they create a box personalized for your skin, hair and style. If you review the products you receive in your box, you earn points to purchase full size products in the BB online store! 

Dry shampoo has made such a presence in the past few years and for good reason. When you want that bangin' blowout to last one more day or maybe you hit the snooze button one too many times, you can rely on this cleanser and styling product! Spray into the roots, wiggle the product in to the roots with your fingers and then style per usual. Bonus: dry shampoo amps up your volume like no body's business. 

Holy brightness batman, this lipstick knows who's boss! This bright pink shade in lambchop does not disappoint with its pigment and how smoothly it applies. It's a no-brainer when, once again, you've hit the snooze button too many times yet still want to look put together without time for that full face of makeup. Put on your tinted moisturizer, some mascara and this lipstick and you're good to go!

How cute is this hair tie? I love the nautical theme with the little sailboats! These puppies save your hair by not leaving that annoying dent after you've taken your hair down. Throwing your hair in a ponytail has never been so easy or stylish.

Having tried this cleanser before through one of Adam's BB for men, I was excited to try it again! Think of the lemon drop candy and that's what this beauty smells like! Hold off on tasting the cleanser and you will be really impressed with how well it slough's off that dead skin and washes away the stress of the day. 


Eeep! Another nail polish to play with? Yes, please! This shade, along with 3 others, are mini polishes created specifically for Birchbox! The four polishes come in a cute set with the one you see above along with coral, mint and lilac shades. They are all aptly named after the BB offices in Barcelona, Paris, NY and London. 
A little extra I everyone was given is a set of four illustrated postcards showing the international BB cities and on the backs of each card they give you a ideas of things to do in those cities to have a perfect day! I will be purchasing frames for these postcards very soon!
