I received a rare 7 item box.

I also received a recycled tracking number.

 

Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Venizia: This is my PYS. I will try this next week after watching the video. Cleansing oil or vaseline is a good way to remove the lipstick at the end of the day. This is made in the USA.

Now I know how the Real Housewives keep their lipstick on during restaurant scenes.

 

Jouer Matte Moisture Tint Sunscreen SPF 15 in Linen:  EWG rates this a 3. I will keep this around in case I run out of sunscreen. Jouer also offers a $45.00 quarterly box called Le Matchbox.  This is made in the USA.

Jouer is a great word to use for hangman or on the Wheel of Fortune.

 

Supergoop! Anti-Aging City Sunscreen Serum SPF 30: Birchbox cares about my sunscreen needs. EWG rates this a 3. I will use this when I finish other sunscreen products. Not only is this cruelty-free, but it is paraben and oxybenzone free. It’s made in Australia which explains why we need to store it at below 30C.

Do you think this works out in the country?

 

Cartier Baiser Volé Eau de Parfum Spray: Birchbox decided to punish me for buying a perfume last month. This has a lily scent and is made in France.

Perfumes – Either you love them or hate them.

 

Davines MINU trio: I feel Birchbox is missing a couple important selling points in its description. This is paraben and sulfate-free. I find this particular Davine product line interesting because of how they make it. They are working with the Slow Food Movement in producing this product. I used to belong to the USA Chapter and need to renew my membership.

 

Another fun thing about the Davines Minu trio is that the caper blossom extract is from Mr. D’Amico’s farm in Italy. I used the products Friday morning and liked them.

Birchbox has the sample sizes backwards. I need a big sample of conditioner and a foil size shampoo sample.

 

Verdict: Birchbox is my only yearly subscription. This month’s box is a good box for me with decent sample sizes. I will be using everything except the perfume because I do not like the scent.

 

It’s hard to take a decent picture through netting. I took this picture Friday morning.
