Birchbox: June 2013

Yes that's right (If you haven't guessed already) I have received my first ever Birchbox.

I got this as a birthday present from my mum and I got a few moths subscription (don't know how long for exactly). And this pleased me Immensely.

I have to say a huge well done to Birchbox for this month its made me sooooo excited for future months.

This month I got 6 products =] And it included 2...yes 2 nail polishes !!!!!

Colour club nail polish -

I as did apparently most of Birchbox subscribers received 2 colour club polishes. I received 'Reign in Spain' and 'Pardon my French'. 'Reign in Spain' is an amazing neon coral colour and 'Pardon my French' is a beautiful bright pastel purple. I am certainly looking forward to wearing these throughout summer. This is a 7ml sample but a full size one is 15ml but I think it's a seriously lovely sample.

My picture didn't show the colours well so I found a picture on Google.

Laura Geller Beauty Inkwell Waterproof Gel Liner-

This is a very lovely product not only have I been meaning to pick up a gel eye liner for ages but its such a lovely/expensive brand.This lasts all day and will need a good make up remover to take it off so possibly for me it's not an every day...liner but oh well. I love it and it's probably weird to say but I love the brush too. you pull the brush out and twist it round and clip it back in again to get a lovely, soft and useful brush.

Noble Isle 'Fireside' bath and shower gel - 

This product is nice and I do appreciate it and it does the job. however I'm not too keen on the smell...I don't hate it and I certainly don't love it but. It is a nice high end product and it keeps my mum happy. This is a 30ml bottle which is a decent sample and my mum has enjoyed using it.

Beauty protector - protect and detangle leave in conditioner - 

Honestly I haven't tried this product yet. but it certainly smells very nice and its a great size both for travelling and a really big sample size. It definitely claims to do a lot, and if it's any good I'll be sure to let you know in a favourites video.

Coola classic sunscreen - spf 30

This is a sun cream specifically for your face. It's meant to cool and sooth you face as well as protecting it from the sun and this all sounds very good to me. however me being rather pale. in other countries I have to wear SPF 50 on my face, But I might get away with 30 in London so I will give it ago the next sunny day we have. *Laughs to self*

So this is it for this month its been a fabulous time/box and I am so looking forward to writing about next months box. fingers crossed that it's a good one.

QOTD: Are you subscribed to Birchbox? What did you receive this month? Have you got any of these products if so any comments on them? 

The 30 day snap:

I read a post by Sprinkle of glitter, and I loved the idea. She said we were all welcome to have a go ourselves and I'm taking her up on that option.

So here is her post explaining it in detail. But the simple idea is that you upload 1 picture a day in June to document it. This sounds like fun and will encourage me to take photos due to June being a busy month for me (birthday time). 

There may be more than 1 a day, and I may or may not tell the story behind it (but I probably will). 

I would love to see you have a go at it and I hope you enjoy watching me through June. 

***And be sure to let me see your photos. leave a comment down below.***

Yes to carrots: super rich body butter

I was given a mini sample set of 'yes to carrot' products for Christmas and I have been loving them... I have done a review on the lip balm so you can go and check that out. But now for the moisturiser. dun dun dun.

Before we even begin I have to say I LOVE this and I think it is soooooo lovely that I have already ordered another one (full size). You are meant to put it all over your body but I just put it on my face.

This is mostly used up now I just thought i would show you how much I have left

I don't use this every day, I tend to use it every now and then before I go to bed (on the days when my skin feels sad). I always use it after the shower and when I wake up the next morning my face feels so soft and just lovely. This soaks in really well and it smells amazing. In fact my mum came into my room after I had used it and asked 'what that lovely smell was' and I just love how soft it makes my skin and hydrated my face feels. Also I feel as though when my face feels this soft I feel more awake and ready to go.

You only need a bit. A bit here and there goes a long way. My sampler is 50ml and it has lasted me for about 6 months and a full size is £10-13 and 250ml so about 5 times the size. Yay

*I would definitely suggest for you all to go and buy it so go now. =] *

QOTD: Have you tried it? Will you? What is your favourite face cream?

A's Buys: Blue bird Shirt

So I got this shirt from Primark, but I was surprised at the quality and how good  the material felt.

     Now lets be honest we all go to Primark for cheap, nice clothes that ... well you could throw away after not to long and replace with new things. (Is that just me) Don't worry I don't wear clothes once and throw them away =]

But back to the shirt. It's a white sheer shirt (very floaty and girly). It has blue birds all over it, and studs on the corners of the collar *Which really makes it sparkle*

As you can see I added the magic turquoise necklace, to show you how a necklace would look with the shirt.

You would need to wear something under it weather its a bandeau or a vest top. I'm sure you know what I mean.

I love these shirt tops and I feel as though you could doll them up with heels and tucked in with a skirt or dress it down and put leggings and boots but either way it would look so pretty.

Thanks for reading guys love A x
