BirchBox March 2017 First Impressions

Hello Beauties,

This is going up later than I expected it to be going up (oops) sorry about that.
I was really impressed with this months birchbox Just as I was very impressed with the first box I received back in February.
If the quality of the contents of what is inside the box continues I can see myself continuing to be a birchbox subscriber it's such a good way to try beauty products that you wouldn't necessarily try.

I love the fact that birchbox have teamed up with Destinology to give one lucky birchbox subscriber a chance to win a 3 day holiday to Paris. I would love this opportunity Paris is my favourite city . It's a 3 day trip and you will be staying in 4 star accommodation if you won the holiday which is quite a prize.
All you have to do is tag birchbox uk or birchbox ie if your in Ireland and destinology and make sure your following them both on Instagram.


 This month the birchbox goodies came in this little cute bag which I think is handy especially to use when travelling .

 Here are the products that came in this months box I have only used one of the products which Is the first product on the card it's the Benefit There Real Double The Lip in the shade Lusty Rose its such a beautiful everyday wearable shade . The lipstick has an innovative teardrop tip with a liner at the top and a long lasting lipstick at the bottom . This two in one formula delivers a really vibrant colour for fuller lips . This lipstick is like nothing I have ever used before to use this lipstick you position the pointed tip along the upper upper line and sweep on . Flip upside down for your bottom lip . I think this will take a little bit of getting used to because its a new way of putting your lipstick on but I think it's a real cool idea.  The RRP of these Benefit There Real Double The Lip are £16.50. This size is just a deluxe sample size which is very generous.

Rituals - The Rituals Of Sakura Foaming Shower Gel again another deluxe sample RRP is from £4.50 if I enjoy this I think I will purchase it. I have heard so much about the Brand Rituals I honestly don't know why I haven't tried anything sooner so I'm really looking forward to trying this out.

Batiste 2 In 1 Shampoo and Conditioner another deluxe generous sample size the price of this is RRP £4.49 . I have tried the original Batiste shampoo and found out that it dried my hair out so I stopped using it as this one has conditioner in as well I am hoping it will work a little better for me .

Caudalie Vine (active) Glow Activating Anti-Wrinkle Serum RRP £36
I have heard so many good reviews about this from beauty influencers on you tube and also bloggers that I can't wait to try it out. It's very expensive £36 so I would expect great results from this product.

I have just looked for this on the Caudalie website to see how much product you get in the full size version it's 30ML and the deluxe size version that we received in this months birchbox is 10ML so it's a really generous size. So looking forward to using this and bringing you a review on it .

Balance Me Instant Lift Primer RRP £22 - This is an instant lift primer which sounds very exciting as my skin is starting to age now :).
The description says you might not be able to get rid of pores altogether but you can blur the lines . Well I hope that is true the pores on my nose and around my cheeks are quite big so if it helps minimise them It will definitely be worth paying the £22. It's made with 99% hyaluronic acid and acacia gum which tightens and defuses for smoother refined skin .

So as you can see there is some pretty amazing deluxe sample sizes in this months birchbox there isn't one thing that I am not looking forward to trying or that I am disappointed with . I can't wait to give you more of a indepth review on all of the products . I still need to do a review on last months products so that will be going up soon.

Do you get birchbox what did you think of this months box ?
