June Birchbox 2015

June French Sole Step Outside With Birchbox

Hey everyone so for this box birchbox had teamed up with French Sole!

You could pick what design box you wanted, but like always I forgot haha.
instead of the usual birchbox bag, it's a French Sole shoe tie bag.

I will list all the products,prices and all information below like always for you all.

English Laundry *BIRCHBOX EXCLUSIVE* 
No. 7 For her perfume by Christopher Wicks.
This is a sample size, for the full size it would cost £60
For a sample perfume, that I have never even heard of -
It has the most gorgeous fruity, fresh smell which has a hint of musk too.


Yes To - Cucumbers Facial Wipes
These wipes are sample size which you get 10 of in each sample size pack.
The full size retails at £4.99
These wipes are very hydrating ( so amazing for dry skin like myself )
95% natural and removes make-up.

Balance Me - Super Moisturising Body Wash
This full size 100ml body wash is 99% natural
it's great for hydrating your skin, but also comes in handy if you suffer from dry skin too!
It costs £9

Beauty Protector * BIRCHBOX EXCLUSIVE*
I got 2 sample sized protect & oils, the full size would cost £16
You only need 1-3 drops when you smooth it into damp hair
so those 2 samples will actually last a very long time.
It is a lightweight hair oil and it protects against UV rays and heat damage!
I personally think it's the best smelling oil for your hair that i've ever come across!
TOTALLY SMELLS LIKE CANDYFLOSS :D

Mirenesse - iCurl Secret Weapon 24Hr Mascara 
I was super excited to get this mascara,
It has a good curved wand, birchbox claim that the full size is £16
But I had done a bit of research and their website sell the fullsize for £10

STYLondon - Temporary Metallic Tattoos 
This is full size and costs £7.99
yet like I said about my glossybox, another lot of tattoos I will not use!


Overall I was pleased with june's box,
Shame about the tattoos but that doesn't matter.

Lush & Primark Haul

Saturday, 28 February 2015

LUSH & PRIMARK HAUL!

Hello everyone, I was in town today and happened to accidentally slip into LUSH and Primark ;)

It's not a huge haul - just a small haul so I thought I would share with you guys what I purchased!

Firstly I couldn't resist but to go into LUSH.. now I know I'm not the first to say this , but......

 LUSH IS THE MOST AMAZING STORE IN THE WHOLE WORLD!

I only purchased 2 different items , but once I have used them for at least a week I will do a review :)

Firstly I picked up four Tea Tree Toner Tab's   - They are £1.00 each / 5g 

I have been hearing super amazing things about these so I thought I would try them out!

All you have to do is  drop into a bowl of hot water, releasing the steam to open pores and allow the essential oils to be absorbed - cover your head with a towel and breathe it in for 5 minutes (or however long you'd prefer) wait for the water to cool down then you could use a cotton wool pad and use the toner water to clean any excess oils or dirt from your face.

If you don't like to waste things, you can actually store the rest of the toner water in a make-up bottle or spray bottle and keep in the fridge -  I had spoke to a guy in lush who had recently been told you can keep each one in the fridge for around 1 week before chucking it :) Which is long enough!

Tea Tree Water, Toner Water. £4.25 for 100g and £7.95 for 250g.

As Tea tree is antibacterial, antifungal and antimicrobial, it helps keep away the bacteria that can cause spots.  Use any time of day to keep skin refreshed, or to remove traces of makeup or cleanser.

It claims to be good for oily and spot prone skin -

I never get spots thank god, but I was blessed with oily dry skin ,

So I will use this every single day so I can get the right opinions of it so I can do reviews on both of these products - I will be sure to keep you all informed when that will be.

Now onto my few things from Primark ;

I have heard so many things about beauty blenders, now as primark do their version for a reasonable £1.50 I thought - Well why not give it a go before splashing the cash on a top branded beauty blender just to get used to /see if it suits my make-up routine.

Me and my partner seen these boxers with fries on saying I love fries then the other side that says fries before guys - which we both found hilarious, they are super soft and very comfy!  £1.70

I noticed they had tons of short shorts in different colours/patterns so I decided to get these plain black and white ones to wear around the house , they are super soft and I put them on tonight... so comfy! £3

Last of all I noticed they had new wipes out, and being a twin pack I had to purchase!

    They are from their P,S LOVE YOUR SKIN range -  Argan Facial Cleansing Wipes for dry skin.

    * Lightly fragranced , Dermatologically Tested and Enriched with Argan oil!!

       You get 25 wipes in each packet - they are twin packs so really you get 50.

       They smell really sweet, but not over powering which is always nice!

        At only £1!! you cannot go wrong!

Sorry that it was only a small little haul but....

I will have my MUA (Makeup Academy) haul up tomorrow for you guys!

And because it's the 28th - 

The last day of the month I will also think of a Feb favourites to do for you.

So yes that's right, two blogs on the same day :D!!

Birchbox February 2015

Good evening everyone :) I'm excited to say that I will be un-boxing my first ever Birchbox with you guys and explain each product :) you can buy them all at www.birchbox.co.uk/shop 

 Once opening my box I got super excited to see they put all your products in a cute little bag with strings that you pull to close it - It has the BIRCHBOX name and then the logo on the other side.  I think it's a great idea as they aren't all over the place when you open your box. I love how they have made the boxes slimmer too.
