There is no other time of the month I love more than Birchbox time and this months is a good'un! The September Birchbox arrived a few days ago and I tore open the package to find the Happy Days themed box in teal and hot pink! Adorable! The Happy Days theme is all about reminiscing about our happiest days, sunny memories and some of the best times of our lives.
Two of the items go with this theme perfectly; The voucher for Photobox.co.uk where you can order a canvas print, personalised phone case or photo block at a special discount and the block photo clip. I also had a bag of Urban Fruit Mango Pieces but I had eaten them after having the box open for five minutes. Yummy.
The one product I was most excited to find was Benefits It's Potent eye cream, I love this stuff and have just conveniently run out of my own pot, it's soothing, leaves skin feeling soft and is definitely worth it's price tag. Next up is Premae Mild Pro Dermabrasion, this contains olive granules to get your skin really clean, it really does buff your skin leaving a smooth base to apply make up to. ModelCo Powerlash Mascara didn't wow me, I've used their eyeliner before and had panda eye by 10am so I was dubious using this.
This also smudged under my eye by 10am, I'll be sticking to my Thick & Fast. Lastly, I had the Jane Iredale Just Kissed Lip Plumper. After seeing the shade of this I didn't have high hopes, that was until I applied it. Rio reminds me of Enchanted One from MAC's Alluring Aquatic range and looks lovely on. It also contains spearmint oil, peppermint oil and ginger root to plump your lips.
