OCTOBER BIRCHBOX

Today I received my second Birchbox and yet again, I clapped my hands with excitement when I saw the box sitting in my mailbox. Will my excitement ever stop? Between my Vogue subscriptions and my Birchbox, now I actually look forward to getting the mail.

This month, Birchbox and goop  (an online publication created by Gwyneth Paltrow offering recipes, travel info, shopping ideas, and more) put together a few must-try products and sent them our way…

Here’s what I got:

• Jouer – Lip Enhancer
• Kiehls – Rosa Artica Eye Cream
• Ouidad – Hydrafusion Intense Curl Cream
• Supergoop! – City Sunscreen Serum
• Mighty Leaf Tea – Assorted Whole Leaf Tea Bags

Loved: Kiehls Rosa Artica Eye Cream (But I’m kind of biased, I love all things Kiehls.)
Could live without: Jouer Lip Enhancer (I liked the conditioning aspect, but not the enhancing.)

I still haven’t decided if I’ll continue doing the monthly Birchbox posts, it’s really only helpful if you’re getting the boxes too. That way we can compare products and see what else it out there. You can register for your own box here.

I may venture out and try the other options like ipsy or glossybox. Are you subscribed to any? If so, which one do you like best?

Well, friends that’s all for today. I’ll be in Tennessee this weekend, attempting to take in some real Fall weather. Stay safe and dry as Hurricane Sandy passes by and keep those umbrellas handy. Have a great Halloween weekend!
