Updating Birchbox - June 2014

Here's my June 2014 Birchbox items in all its glory:


Shipping via Websource came in at $83TT - mainly due to the weight of the shampoo - ouch!

This month, Birchbox's theme was Away We Go  

They provided a quiz (booklet below) and an opportunity to win a trip from JetBlue. Unfortunately, it was only applicable to US citizens 




Close up of the items:

Vasanti BrightenUp! Enzymatic Face Rejuvenator


Seems like a miracle product when I read the product description. Papaya enzymes to break down dead cells; aloe vera, coconut, vitamins B & E to keep skin fresh - definitely need to put this to the test


Folle de Joie eau de parfum


A 3.4 fl oz of this will cost you $98.00 US. Folle de Joie translates to "crazy with joy"; and it brings a woodsey floral scent with hints of jasmine as described by Birchbox. 

I didn't gravitate towards it - I prefer more sweet and fruity scents. I actually edited my Birchbox profile so I won't receive perfume samples. I prefer to search for that perfect match and stick with it (for as long as I can)


LAQA & Co. Sheer Lip Lube Pencil


The tip came off and caused a bit of mess. But this color/shade of purple is definitely something I'm not brave enough to wear ...in public ...on my lips. 

Oh well - Halloween is coming up :P  



Davines Love Smoothing Shampoo; Davines Love Smoothing Conditioner; Davines OI / All in One Milk


The scent of the shampoo threw me off a bit. On reading the label - it's probably the scent of the Indian fig extract. As for the conditioner and the milk - it's in these little packets that I do not like. 
I'm yet to try it 


Supergoop!® Everyday SPF 30 with Cellular Response Technology, 18 oz.


Supergoop Supergoop Supergoop - another sunscreen to pop into a bag
(who gets excited about sunscreen? ...not me)

*******


That's it for June'14 for Birchbox.
