August 2012 Birchbox

I got my Birchbox this month and I'm loving the "Beauty School" theme.

Miss Jessie's Original Stretch Silkening Crème

I feel like this is a good amount of product just for a sample! This leave in conditioner claims to be the "best darn curl creme period", but I will definitely be putting it to the test. I have yet to find a product to help define my curls. I ALWAYS get a big puffy frizzy mess. I just want mermaid curls... is that too much to ask? :(

Juicy Couture - Viva la Juicy La Fleur

I'm really not a big fragrance person. The scent is pleasant but not too strong. Not the best smell in the world... I know, helpful, right?
This is how the website describes the scent: Top notes of wild berries and sweet mandarin flirt with lady-like middle notes of honeysuckle, jasmine, and gardenia. Warm base notes of caramel, amber, vanilla, sandalwood, and praline hover beneath it all.

Pixi Beauty Lip and Line

I was super SUPER excited to receive this in my box this month. I've been loving the Pixi cosmetic line and this was of the products I wanted to try. So amazing that they sent a full sized product ! I really love the color on my skin tone. For a lip product the lasting of it is decent. It's pretty much lip stick. I feel like this product alone made the whole box wroth it for me. :)

Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream

This is a Japanese cream that is used to hydrate dry skin. So far what I've been using it for were my cuticles and it's been working fairly well! It's not greasy at all. It has a very fresh and earthy scent that isn't too strong.

Schick Hydro Silk Razor

And last be not least, the life style item they always throw into the package. I've never actually experimented when it comes to my razors. I pretty much have bought the same kind forever. I don't feel like spending alot on something I'm just going to throw away. What is cool about this razor is that the blades are disposable.  I know what you're thinking: "Devon where have you been?!" It's not a revolutionary product but for me it pretty ground breaking, haha! I may consider sticking with this style of razor. It gave a really close shave, without irritating my skin.
