June 2012 Birchbox

This month's birchbox was one of my favorite so far. The theme of the birchbox was travel-friendly products, since many people will be traveling this summer. The box contained 5 products; I'm excited to try most of them.

The first product in my birchbox is the theBalm cosmetics Stainiac in Beauty Queen. This rose colored lip and cheek tint. This would be a nice less expensive alternative to Benefit's Benetint; although the full size version contains slightly less product.

 

 

Sample value: $2.27(.04 fl oz)

The next product in my birchbox was the Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream. This Japanese cream helps moisturize dry skin, cuticles, chapped lips and more. I tried this product on my lips it worked really well but the smell kind of grossed me out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sample value: $1.28(.1 oz)

 

I also received the Borghese Bagno Di Vita Soak. The mineral rich crystals are supposed to help moisturize skin and sooth tired muscles. I probably wont use this body soak since I don't take baths. But if I find the time I'm sure they'll be a nice treat.

Sample Value: $3.5(.7 oz)

The last beauty product in my birchbox was an Eyeko Fat Eye Stick. I was very excited to get a full sized makeup product in my birchbox. This black eye pencil with settle shimmer will be perfect for creating a smokey eye.

Sample Value: $15(full size)

My lifestyle extra was a Chocolate Peppermint LUNA Bar; I've ate LUNA bars before and absolutely love them. This was honestly the favorite part of my birchbox. I excitedly quickly wolfed it down forgetting to take a picture of it. I used my birchbox points to order these. This sample was worth $1.25.

Overall Birchbox
Value: $23.30
Opinion: One of my favorite birchbox's yet! I absolutely love the Eyeko Fat Eye Stick.
