January Birchbox

I have to say, I was sort of bummed with January's shipment. So much so, that I actually logged in and updated my profile in hopes to improve the next one. I'm optimistic - I love Birchbox!


Archipelago Pomegranate Body Soap
Smells lovely but too fragrant for shower use. Instead, I dropped this bar in my dresser drawer and it soaks up its scent. I'm always determined to find some way to use everything!



Juicy Couture I don't think it was until Birchbox that I realized how sensitive I am to scents. I just prefer things to be softer and more subtle. So, needless to say, I give this perfume a thumbs down.

Origins Checks & Balances Frothy Face Wash I have to say that I was really excited about finding this in my BB because I really like experimenting with face regimes but I just haven't gotten around to using it. I've finally found a routine that works for me and I'm afraid to shake things up. It's on my "to try" list though.


Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eyeliner I like Stila but I'm so obsessed with Victoria's Secret Eyeliner that I couldn't make the transition. I tested it out and it worked wonderfully. The color - Lionfish was perfect for me but again, I'm just so stuck on my routine!

LaraBar Last but... well... :sigh: yeah - least. I don't have much to say about this other than the fact that it was truly disgusting. The end.







I have to admit, I took a sneak peak at Liz Marie Blog's February Birchbox and I can't wait! I promise I won't wait until March to post it. :) Also, if you'd like to subscribe to Birchbox, click here!
