I’ve been debating about whether to keep getting Birchbox or
not lately, but this box was one of the better recent ones. Like my recent Ipsy posts, I’m posting this
for completeness and comparison purposes, especially because my August box came
early this month. Look for more coming
soon!
Catherine Malandrino Style de Paris – This fragrance
overwhelmed me from when I first opened the box, and not in a good way. I tend to like sweeter scents, and this one
has none of that. Not for me.
Dr. Brandt PoreDermabrasion Pore Perfecting Exfoliator – I’m
not a huge fan of these types products, preferring face scrubs that I can use
in the shower. I also haven’t been a
huge fan of Dr. Brandt exfoliation products in the past, but I will give this a
shot since I’ve never tried it before. What type of exfoliator do you prefer? Do you have a favorite brand or do you switch things up?
LOC Ultra Gloss Lip Pencil in Punch Line – I’ve really liked everything I’ve tried from LOC so far. I was a little wary when I first saw this color since I don’t usually go for this type of pink, but being sheer I think I can make this work. I will need to see how it wears because I can have problems with feathering.
Marcelle Xtension Plus Curl Curling & Lengthening Mascara – I’ve said before and I’ll say it again, I like getting mascara samples. I know I’ll be trying this, I just don’t know when I’ll get to it, because it seems like everyone sent mascara this month. What type of mascara do you prefer: lengthening, thickening, or some other kind? Shout out below!
Coola Makeup Setting Spray – I don’t necessarily use setting spray every day, but I use it enough to be interested in this. I also really appreciate that this has sunscreen in it. While I haven’t been a huge fan of Coola sunscreens in the past because I’ve still gotten sunburns through them, but I wouldn’t use this as my sole sunscreen so I’m thinking it should work out ok. Are you a fan of setting sprays?
So looking at this month’s box, there’s 3 things I’m really
looking forward to using and two that I either definitely won’t use (perfume)
or is only a try-and-see for me.
How was your box this month?
