So my monthly Chirstmas present came in the mail and this month it was pretty great! I have been subscribing to Birchbox for about a year now and really can't find anything bad to say about it. Some people don't like the products they get, some like every single one. Me on the other hand, I get products that I think are silly at the time and then 3 months later go back and use it.
So this month I kinda mad out like a bandit because I got many of the things I was interested in from the video! Heres my goods .....
ateiler cologne ambre nue - love all Birchbox's perfume samples but this one is very strong (think the eau de parfum version of Miss Dior) and VERY amber-y. I'll all for amber perfumes however I liked their sample of Juliette Has a Gun 'Not a Perfume' - that is a single note of gray amber and more subtle, and for me, more wearable everyday.
evologie intensive blemish serum - AWESOME! this was one of the products I saw in the video and was PUMPED when I got it. Goes on nicely, absorbs in a SNAP! definitely may be my next full sized purchase.
nexxus youth renewal rejuvenating elixir - another thing I wanted from the video just because I knew I would never buy it for myself on my own. I used it on both dry and damp hair and personally using it on dry hair works better (because its made up of oils if your hair is wet you can't really feel how much you're putting on) you really only need a little bit and its great for dry ends and the little crown frizzies too!
sumita eye shadow pencil - really wanted to try this too but I got the pink color . . . . .I'm usually more of a purple/blue/green chick because pink tends to make my eyes look tired, HOWEVER this pencil redeemed itself when I did a purple eye look and when used under the purple shadow it added dimension, acted as a primer and looked great. So this is the SURPRISE FAV!
simple eye roller serum - my sister stole this from me and said it works great! diminished her under eye darkness and felt great going on. BONUS: put it in the fridge and the coolness will help depuff even more.
