Birchbox – October Beauty Box

I was so excited about this month’s beauty box from Birchbox as I’d seen the spoilers, so when I got the dispatch email I decided not to leave the house until Mr Yodel arrived. Luckily I didn’t have to stay in all day!

Beauty Buzz is the theme of the October beauty box from Birchbox, celebrating award-winning products and celebrity favourites.

♥ Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser This is the product that got me all excited and the reason why I spent half my day indoors waiting for the courier! I’ve heard that this is amazing, with a sheer, lightweight formula to add a healthy glow. I can’t wait to try it, I just hope it matches my skintone! (14.7ml)

♥ KMS Curl Up Wave Foam Mousse My hair has a bit of a natural wave to it but most of the time I leave it as it is or I straighten it out; this product encourages curls while protecting from heat so I’m keen to see how it works on my hair. (75ml)

♥ theBalm Cosmetics Stainiac This product is quite similar to Benefit’s Benetint, a sheer lip and cheek stain. (1.2ml)

♥ Dr Lipp Nipple Balm for Lips I’ll be honest, I think this is a way overpriced product. Lansinoh nipple cream contains 3 times the amount of the same product and it’s cheaper too. Faced with the choice of 15ml of lanolin cream for £11.00 or 45ml of lanolin cream for £9.00, it’s a no brainer which one I’d pick! (3ml)

♥ Akane Mask Cocoon Nocturne A gorgeous smelling mask that is used overnight to hydrate tired thirsty skin. It sounds wonderful, I can’t wait to use it. (12ml)

♥ Egyptian Magic These three sachets of this cult multi-purpose skin cream are a ‘beauty extra’ in this month’s box. It’s an all-natural cream which can be used on skin and hair. (3 x 3ml)

♥ UltraDEX Interdental Brushes I’m obsessed with looking after my teeth. I had braces in my teens so don’t want to ruin the hard work I went through! These brushes are a ‘lifestyle extra’. (30 brushes and travel case)

I pretty much say this every month, but once again Birchbox have nailed their beauty box. I love, and will use, everything that’s in it this month. There’s also a little teaser telling us that next month’s box will contain another Laura Mercier product, I can’t wait to find out what that’s going to be!
