July 2012 Birchbox



This month's Birchbox was another hit for me. Here are the goods..

minteas- I got the ginger pear flavor. I liked the cute leaf shaped tin but the mints tasted a bit odd.  I ended up purchasing some lime mojito minteas off of the Birchbox site and they were a bit better but definitely not something I would purchase again.

Color Club Blue Ming nail polish- This is a great bluish green color. Perfect for summer or the warmer months. I love nail polish so I was pretty happy to get this sample.

eyeko Black Liquid Eyeliner- I don't use liquid eyeliner so I gifted this to a friend. This was a full-sized product which is always appreciated. My friend really liked the eyeliner!

Supergoop! City Sunscreen Serum- I got two sample packets of this product. Each packet was good for 2 uses. I was expecting a clear serum and this serum actually looks like regular sunscreen (It had the same consistency as regular sunscreen too).  It sunk in well and didn't feel heavy under my makeup.

Harvey Prince Eau Flirt- I was a bit disappointed to get this since the picture on my Birchbox page showed the Harvey Prince Hello! perfume which would have been right up my alley (that is a citrus perfume). This one smelled of pumpkin and musk.. not my cup of tea.

Lifestyle Extra- Birchbox headphones- I loved these pink and green headphones! I was majorly disappointed that one of the headphones had a hole in the plastic on the earpiece. (I purchased an additional pair off the Birchbox website and got blue and pink ones. Not as cute as the pink and green combo but still nice).
