A little late to the party, but I thought I’d share what I got in my February beauty box from Birchbox.
London Fashion Week is the theme of the February beauty box from Birchbox; here’s what I got in mine:
Korres Guava Little Shower Gel – I am not that fussed by Korres products to tell you the truth, but this does smell lush. It’s a 50ml bottle.
Gerda Spillmann Bio-Fond Cream Make-up – I’ve never heard of this brand before, I do love trying new brands. Unfortunately this foundation, in shade 03, is too dark for me. A bold move by Birchbox trying to match something as tricky as foundation! This is a 4.5g compact.
Nick Chavez Plump N Thick Leave-In Thickening Mist – My haircare regime is very much a wash & go regime at the moment, I need products that I can quickly apply to damp hair and then leave to dry so this sounds perfect for me. This is a 59ml bottle.
Vichy Eau Thermale – I have never tried one of these facial water mists before despite hearing how wonderful they are. I might save this for when I go on holiday as I’ve heard they’re great for your skin during flights. This is a 50g can.
Birchbox Eyelash Curlers - This is a ‘beauty extra’ and I think it’s a fab extra to receive. My eyelash curlers died long ago and I haven’t got round to replacing them, I just always forget!
EBOOST Daily Health Booster – This sachet is a ‘lifestyle extra’. It looks like it does the same kind of thing as Berocca. I’m not sure that I can having this while I am still nursing my baby, so either my fiancé will have it or I’ll just keep it until I’m no longer nursing as it’s got a long shelf-life.
I think this was another good beauty box from Birchbox. It’s a shame about the foundation though. What do you think of this month’s box? If you like it and want to sign up, please feel free to use my referral link: http://birchbox.co.uk/?raf=674. The box costs £10 per month plus p+p.
It is a shame they get the foundations and other make-up items so wrong in these boxes because they could be so good xx

It's pretty good apart from that to be fair xx
DeleteI've always wanted to try facial water mists too but I haven't yet- they sound so good but I'm sceptical about water in a can! Korres products do smell really good :)

Ha me too, now I have the chance to try!xx
Deletei love the water spray - the eyelash curlers and korres - but the rest seems a bit meh. but do share your thoughts at a later stage about teh water spray bc i always get so many conflicting views - some say it is great and some say it leaches moisture from your skin...so would be nice to know your thoughts
ReplyDeleteI will do! Probably after my holidays later this year as planning to save it for the flight!xx
DeleteI love the water sprays for travel, I also like to use it after a face mask and let it dry on the skin before applying moisturiser. Looks like a good box to me!
ReplyDeleteOh that sounds like a great way to use the spray!xx
DeleteMy foundation was also too dark...love the korres scent, tho... Need more!!! :) xxx
