Birchbox September Birthday Edition. |
I think this months design is really, really pretty. This month there was the choice of two designs and I chose this one because the watercolour balloons and the simplistic yet bright design instantly grabbed my attention. This months box contained some great products and I am happily using all of them!
I also have loved the 'Pore fessional' by Benefit. Having a miniature of this is great as it can easily be popped into a handbag and I can use it on the go. I really struggle with mid-afternoon, sudden oil eruptions on my face and having the 'Pore fessional' has been great as it just magics away oil and shininess in an instant! Its very nice when a product does exactly what it sets out to do and does it well!
I would also like to mention the 'Hydra Veil' by Illamasqua. Sadly, I have been less than enamoured by this. I was very excited when I first saw by box contained it as I really like Illamasqua and do struggle with some dryness in the mornings that really doesn't set my makeup off to the best start. Sadly, I didn't find it did anything for my skin. It also has a vile, jelly consistency that is very unpleasant to use. Although it does sink into the skin quite nicely it does feel a bit sticky on the skin and nothing about it screamed its tag line of 'rehydration gel'.
