The January Birchbox

It’s that time of the month again – brand new Birchbox time! I love getting the monthly Birchbox deliveries as they’re basically a gift from me, to me – you never know exactly what you’ll get inside, and I like surprises.

This months box is bright and cheerful to perk up your January, and is full of goodies. I find that often there is at least one product in each box that isn’t quite up my street, but this time they all look fabulous! Let me show you what is inside…

CLE Cosmetics Essence Moonlighter Cushion in Copper Rose

This is my first time trying a cushion product, and I can already tell that this is going to become a permanent resident inside my make up bag! I really like the packaging and the cushion style makes it really easy to use. The highlighter itself is a beautiful copper colour, which is cooling when you apply it and delivers a subtle glow. Love it – and you get a full sized product too!

Dr Botanicals Cleansing Bar in Lemon Superfood

Another full sized product, and one I can’t wait to crack out. This cleansing bar is gentle enough to use on your face as well as your body, so this will be going straight into my travel washrag as I reckon it would be perfect for our camping trips! I’ve got the Lemon version, which smells beautiful and fresh.

Philip Kingsley Flaky/Itchy Scalp Shampoo

I’ve wanted to try the Philip Kingsley products for a while now, and this travel sized shampoo is the perfect introduction! The shampoo smells lovely, and this is another product that will be coming along travelling with me.

Afterspa Facial Micro Scrubber

This cleansing mitt is the perfect addition to my skincare routine – it works with your normal cleanser and gently exfoliates your skin while you wash your face. Even better, it’s reusable – simply hang dry and use it again! I’m a big fan of this product.

Doucce Maxlash Volumizer Mascara

I always like to use mascaras with fibres in, as I find they give a natural, volumized look – and this mascara promises great things! Promising volume, length and with the ability to layer the mascara on later in the day, I’m excited to try this and see how it compares to my favourite Soap & Glory mascara.

Plus a pair of Pom Pom hair bands – which are very cute, and remind me of when I was 13! (ha ha)

I’m really enjoying using this month’s Birchbox treats – if you haven’t already signed up, you should definitely give it a go! There’s no minimum contract, you can try one box and cancel if you wish. Find out more here.
