Once the Birchbox of the month hype dies down, it's when I get mine. Last month I didn't get a chance to take pics cause I got it while the in laws were over and I was too busy. Didn't like that box anyways, I gave away everything in it but the polish. This one again is just OK. I do love the perfume samples because that's my thang, but the rest...Eeeeh. Not a fan of Carol's Daughter; I've purchased many things from her line and was disappointed by everything. The liner is a hot mess. Tons of product comes out with the applicator and there's no way to wipe on the edge cause the part you screw the wand into is like half a mile long. I tried to use it; not only is the wand difficult to hold so I ended up with black fingers, but the formula is thin and peels off. The serum is a lifting and firming serum. I'm 25, I don't need either. And my hair is too long for hair ties. Sorry if I sound like I'm complaining too much, I just wanted to be completely honest. I keep it real. ;P

Oh so you get samples sent each month?? Cool I want that, but I'm sure I wont use any :D
ReplyDeleteA lot of people were disappointed this month. xP
ReplyDeleteWe....got the same Birchbox....
ReplyDeleteClearly we're meant to be makeup twins forever. xD your review is more or less exactly mine. I wasn't thrilled with it. Lets hold out for September.
Awww! Yeah, my box wasn't that impressive either lol. But yikes, what a crappy looking liner.
ReplyDeleteI really love your blog and I enjoy it very much, but I have a really hard time reading the small white font :/
ReplyDeleteI tried the liner too and wasnt impressed.. waaay to difficult to use, mines got all over the place and I couldnt get a nice line. It kind of reminded me of tar, without the smell lol
ReplyDeleteYep! But it's on in the US. There's one available in the UK called GlossyBox. :)
ReplyDelete<3
So I heard! I keep seeing bad reviews popping up left and right!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Clearly! This is probably part of why I <3 you so much!
ReplyDeleteI really do hope September is better or else I'm cancelling.
LOL so crappy! It looked more like a nail polish wand!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for letting me know Lexa! I'm so sorry about that! Would making it bigger help?
ReplyDeleteLOL Janalyn!! You are spot on!
ReplyDeleteI still think it's a good idea. Feels like Christmas every month no?
ReplyDeleteCheck out my giveaway

I checked out the site. You have to pay every month for it, boooo!! I don't wanna pay for anything :D
ReplyDeleteyo. what the he// is birchbox...? Who am I and where have I been?
ReplyDeleteat first when I saw your box I saw the eyeliner and thought "LUCKY!" then I saw your pic and understand why you don't like it lol...it was my first month with birchbox and I really hope it gets better. I got a shampoo and conditioner sample (conditioners a big sample the shampoo is a packette) that hair tie is a JOKE! lol I mean theirs nothing too special about it in my opinion, ummm and a sample of timted moisterizer from stilla, a Befine exfoliating face cleanser (I'm actually interested in lol) Tocca sunscreen towelettes, which may come in handy, and last but not least befine night cream which is supposed to "improve skin tones", I hope it works! so all in all mine wasn't too bad but not really worth my money :/
ReplyDeleteOH MY, that liner looks like a NIGHTMARE!!! There is nothing worse than a poor black eyeliner. NOTHING!!
ReplyDeleteLOL!! That's what they wanted me to think with that liner! That I got something great! I got punked!! Haha.:)
ReplyDeleteWow, your first month and you weren't completely happy? That's disappointing.:( A lot of bloggers canceled their box cause of this one. That hair tie IS a joke! You got a few little extras! Though they didn't probably add up to the $10. :/ How did you like that cleaner? Are you gonna stay with Birchbox?
I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!! AMEN SISTAH!!!!!
