I recently received my August Birchbox!! Without further ado the unboxing!
The box is the original yay! For a brief time they changed it and now back to the original.
First of course their theme! This is one of my favorite parts of birchbox. Each box has a theme depending on the time of the year, what is happening in the world, new tv series etc. This months theme was 'Finishing School'. My first impression was there must be finishing spray or products to perfect a look. On this page it talks of having a bold lip for confidence and such so I then figured must be lip stick. Only to my surprise...
Pretty set up so let's dive right in.
I first opened this little container to find Coola sunscreen and Dr Jart+ bb cream. I think the sunscreen is a sample size and I feel like I could get that for free anywhere. The bb cream I was not too excited about because it has SPF 45 and I am not a fan of SPF in my foundations. I actually tried this bb cream and I would not buy it. The only reason I really did not enjoy this is the coverage was too much. I am used to using sheer-medium and this is high-extreme, if you ask me. However if you like high coverage maybe you might like this product.
Next is uniqONE leave in hair mask. I very recently tried this product, and have mixed feelings.
The smell could have been better and it was a lotion consistency and felt greasy. My hair usually is very frizzy and I think it may have helped somewhat, although it felt greasy out of my hair, in my hair it actually helped! It made straightening and curly way easier. Over all I liked this product but please uniqONE, fix the smell bleh.
Next product was a bit odd, Jasmine Seven Fresh Feet Wipes. This although a bit odd I actually like. I am weird about keeping my feet clean, I can get them dirty but at home they must be clean (no judgments). Birchbox gives you 2 wipes and they are full size. On the back the maker talks about walking in the city with flip flops and wanting to clean them back at your apartment, a bit weird.
THis product was actually the first thing I saw, however waited to pick it up last. Guilty enough this color is on my fingers right now. It is inspired by four of birchbox's favorite cites and is called 'Reign in Spain'. Although I love this product, it is from the June Wanderlust box, disapointing. Still a gorgeous color, summery, but gorgeous.
And Finally there was an Ann Taylor trend look. I am going to do some looks based off of this for fun, look out for that!! I hope you enjoyed this! Comment below what you thought and if you have a birchbox or glam bag and what you got!
Thaaaaaaanks for reading!
