September Birchbox


My September Birchbox arrived today!



I absolutely love the colour scheme and prints on the box, it's so cheerful (as is the whole theme of the box itself). 


I'm very pleased with the selection of products as well, a mixture of makeup / food / tools / hair care and home things.


This drawstring bag held all the products and it's really cute! I'll definitely use it to keep some of my favourite products in.


This Benefit eye cream is SO good. It's a light formula packed with peptides, instantly lightening underneath your eyes and even making you feel more awake. After a long day at school I've put some on and I really don't look as tired any more. I might have to invest in the original size, but this little sample is a cute version of the normal packaging!


I've always wanted to own some Korres products after finding out about them on Polyvore. It's a Greek brand that uses only natural ingredients that are highly concentrated (and all their packaging is fab). I can't wait to use this shower gel as it smells super fresh and clean.


This ModelCo power lash mascara has a brush designed specially to reach even the smallest lashes, making an even bigger impact than usual. I applied it over the little amount I had on from this morning and it really has made a difference:



Before / After


These baked mango things don't look too appetizing for something that's meant to be 'sweet,' as to me it actually looks like meat. But I tried one and it was lovely! It actually tasted just like a dried sweet, no meat flavours involved.


This hair healing oil by Agave smooths frizz, tames volume and polishes dry hair. It's made from the agave plant, as its amino sugars lock onto the hair to hold moisture, with other natural ingredients like coconut, sunflower and vanilla. I'll use this tonight!


This was by far the most interesting product I received. I actually thought it was some kind of stress ball at first glance, due to its unique egg shape and packaging. It's actually a makeup blender, with a cleansing soap! So cool. You're meant to wet the sponge, squeeze out the water and dab it into your foundation and then your face for a flawless base. I'll use this when I do my makeup in the morning.


I'm also using the 'Happy Days' photo holder in my bedroom.

Did you like what you received in the September Birchbox? Did you get anything different?
