Oh Birchbox, you impressed me 2 months in a row! Is this a hot streak? Excited! In case you missed last month…check it out here! This month I got 4 samples & a beauty extra so 5 items total. I really like some of them so keep reading to find out which ones!

This months theme is Heritage. They lok at the history of the brands featured & it is also their anniversary. Happy Anniversary Birchbox! They also let  you know that they have some of the past 3 years reader favorites available in the Birchbox shop.

Amika Blow Up Spray- I have really liked the Amika products I’ve tried before so I enjoyed getting another. This is also a nice 2 fl. oz size, definitely enough to try. This is a lightweight mist meant to lift & add shine for the perfect blowout. You can use it on damp or dry hair.

Caudalie Make-Up Remover Cleansing Water- First off, I’ve pretty much adored everything i’ve tried from Caudalie. I just swoon at the though. I have been using the oil off & on & it is my favorite. But, like most Caudalie products, pricey. I have been totally addicted to cleansing waters & this is no exception. Silky smooth!

Coastal Scents Eyeshadow- This shade selection is so much better than the one I received in Ipsy awhile back! Okay neutrals & if they’re in a palette a nice price. i have some Coastal Scents palettes I really love. Wish these were in something other than plastic though!

Ruffian Nail Lacquer in Hedge Fund- A nail polish? Yes please! This shade is a lovely shimmery green. I haven’t put it on…yet…sorry! I’m still excited though! & this is apparently from Ruffian’s first collection & exclusive to Birchbox.

Beauty Extra Egyptian Magic All-Purpose Skin Cream- Also haven’t tried this! I’ve been using a full skincare system & didn’t want o introduce something new yet. I’ve heard wonderful things about this cream though. Celebs talk about it a lot! It is supposed to be good for everything from wrinkles to burns.

Nice box! Pretty much any box including a polish makes me happy, I’m a sucker I know. If you aren’t familiar, Birchbox is a subscription service costing only $10 a month.

Glossybox provides a last kiss of summer this month with some seriously great products.This time there are 4 full size products plus a deluxe sample…great value. Plus there are some new brands in here I’ve been dying to try…win! Keep reading to see what was inside!

This months box is themed Bohemian Summer but the products seem perfect for year round use. This was an excellent box containing 4 full sized items…awesome value! You’ll see a facial spray, lip product, face powder, hair treatment, & skincare product.

Inside was also a cute very light denim cosmetics bag from Guess & a coupon. Cute! Wish I’d had it for the summer, so denim cutoffs! Plus I like that it is actual fabric so it should be reasonably easy to clean.

You’ll see a facial spray, lip product, face powder, hair treatment, & skincare product. Again, awesome sizes!

Airelle Berrimatrix Intense Repair Complex- So basically this is supposed to strength & hydrate deprived cells then renew & brighten skin with antioxidants & botanicals. This is a decent sample because the layer is oober thin & almost like a slick gel.

Anatomicals Spray Misty for Me Facial Spritz– I love facial sprays so a full size? Yay! This is also in a nice price range since it is only $9. I have dry skin so I use facial sprays as both pick-me-ups to rehydrate skin & to seal makeup. This smells freaking awesome with notes of lavender, rose, witch hazel, & more. My skin loves it too! The only thing I’d change is I’m used to a finer mist.

Novex Brazilian Keratin Hair Care Treatment Cream– Another full size & this one is only $4.99 so I was intrigued! This is a super rich creme that is dense & smells like a high-end salon shampoo. It is a preemptive treatment in anticipation of drier seasons, perfect for pre-fall!

Jelly Pong Pong Lip Blush- I’ve heard of these before, maybe they’re big in another country? This is a jumbo moisturizing balm stain & I love the pink shade. Pretty! This is kind of a mix between my Sally Hansen Balm Stains & a sheer gloss. Very pretty & an $18.00 value.

Sue Devitt Triple C-Weed Pressed Powder– Freaking excitement. I’ve actually been wanting to try this powder for awhile. This is ultra-fine & nourishing, perfect for my combination dry skin. Super soft & natural looking. Retails for a whopping $28.00 so this made the box worthwhile on its own!

Overall, an excellent value in this box! I love getting lippies, this powder is even better than I expected, a hair product aimed for use now, a facial spray, & a deluxe skin sample? I’m pretty darn happy! Anything catch your eye? Did you get anything different this month? I’d love to see it!
