Birchbox | January 2015 Relax & Recharge

Birchbox picks were pretty awesome this month. I decided to pick the Relax & Recharge box. I am usually one for surprises, but I liked so many things in the box, I decided a guaranteed success this month was a better option. They also had a box from Tone it Up and even just the sample selections were nice.

Box Breakdown

When TravelMate Sheet Mask

Perlier Intensive Nurturing Body Balm in Shea Lavender

Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask

Manna Kadar Lip Locked Priming Gloss Stain in All of Me

Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream

Teapigs Tea Temples in Licorice & Peppermint and Chamomile Flowers

Sheet masks, mauve lips, tea-it really was like this box was made for me. I think the theme describes the contents perfectly. I love masks in general, but sheet masks are super fun, even if they make you look like a serial killer. They are just easy to store, easy to travel with, and you can mix up your masks since you aren't opening a whole pot that you need to make sure to use before it expires. I love the bright packaging of the When TravelMate Sheet Mask. I don't really get the bike thing, but it's cute. I have heard a lot about the brand balance me from UK beauty bloggers, so I am excited to try the Wonder Eye Cream. Plus, you've read my ramble about how much it sucks to be eye cream...For hair, there's a little sample of Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask. I am looking forward to using this to help out my winter-dry hair. The little pot is pretty adorable, and it should be enough for one use with my long hair. One repeat product I have tried before is the Perlier Body Balm. I had a vanilla/almond-y scent previously which was more my speed than the Shea Lavender scent which is a bit too baby powder for me. I love a good liquid lipstick and this Manna Kadar Lip Locked Priming Gloss Stain is in one of my favourite lip shades. Finally-what probably made my decision for picking this box-tea! Another UK brand that I heard about before thanks to Essie Button. She talks about the Licorice & Peppermint one frequently, so I am excited to try it. Though, I have heard that it's super sweet which may not be my thing-we will see. I think I will just have to have a pamper night with all these goodies.
