June 2015 Ipsy unbagging

It's my favorite time of the month (and no..not THAT time of the month). I'm talking about the day you see that shiny package in your mailbox!


It's like Christmas every month! If you don't already know, Ipsy is $10/month and you get 4-5 deluxe samples every month!


Ipsy has a theme for their bags every month. For June, the theme is "Swim into Beauty". The bag is made of black material with "Ipsy" all over it. The bag is made of what feels like waterproof material.


First item in my bag is Nuxe Gentle Exfoliating Gel with rose petals. I've never heard of Nuxe until now, so I am very excited to give this a try. Also, I love exfoliating gels so this is a good item for me!


Next item is Formula X nail polish in the color Power Source. I rarely wear nail polish on my fingers because of my work environment, but I would use this on my toe nails for a cute summer look.


Up next is Befine Cucumber Facial Mask. I have never heard of Befine until now. I absolutely love facial masks and can't wait to give this a try!


I personally have never used Smashbox primers, let alone Smashbox products. I know this is very raved about product. so I am more than excited to give it a try. It's a very small sample so hopefully this can last me a while.


Lastly, is Trestigue. Again, never heard of this brand before. This is a eye shadow crayon in the shade Aspen Pine. I personally don't wear green eye shadow so I hope this will look good when I sample it.

June 2015 Birchbox

I received my first ever Birchbox today! I was so excited when I opened up my mailbox and saw it sitting there. Here is what was in my Birchbox!


The theme this month was Adventure. I really liked the design of the box and I can re-use it in the future!


One thing I like about Birchbox is that it comes with a card that tells you what you received and how much it retails for. 


Cute pink packaging!


All of the goodies!! (Sorry for the shadow, it was very bright today)


First item in my box is an Emi Jay hair tie. A pack of 5 retails for $13 (which I would NEVER pay for that much!) I have yet to try these type of hairbands since I have thick, wavy hair. Here's to hoping it doesn't break on me!


Next time is Coola sunscreen in Fresh Mango. Full size retails for $32. I have heard good things about this brand so I'm excited to give it a try!


Next we have Amika Perk Up dry shampoo. Full size retails $21. The only dry shampoo I like to use is dry shampoo made for dark hair. I tried this dry shampoo on my hand to see its texture, and it left me white marks/streaks, which I am not a fan of. I might give this to a friend or swap it.


Another things I got was the Marcelle BB Cream Golden Glow. Full size retails $27. At first, I was confused why it said Golden Glow, then I swatched it and left a golden shimmer...which again, I don't like. I will give this away also.


 Bliss is one product I have been wanting to try out, So seeing this in my Birchbox made me happy! Full size retails for $54 (Wowzers!) I feel like this would help out my skin during this weather!


Lastly, another Marcelle product! This time is a waterproof eyeliner in a very pretty blue/teal color. I believe this would look lovely with my brown eyes! Full size retails for $11

This is all I got in my June Birchbox! I think I will be keep the subscription going since I love getting to try new items before I buy. Thanks for the great deal Birchbox! Note: I did get this box for $1 instead of $10 through a promotion Birchbox had! :)
