Finally my June 2014 Birchbox arrived and I was really hoping to receive some of the fab items which were given to some bloggers in their PR samples this month. The anticipated wait is now over! Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better BirchBox deliver another fantastic box.

So who would of thought another great Birchbox this month with some iconic brands this month – They certainly know the concept of a beauty box and have been delivering on this front the last few months.

  Birchbox’s theme this month is  the World Cup, bringing their top beauty players from around the globe  in one little beauty box. A fab theme this month. I’m not a fan of football however I love the world cup.

The item which most subscribers were probably hoping for is the Beautyblender and I am pleased that so far majority of the boxes I have seen has included this item however I have also seen a few poor boxes.

“Birchbox” is a  monthly beauty subscription service. The box consists of  4-5 selected hair, make-up and beauty products from well-known brands and new brands.

If you’re thinking of subscribing there is an offer at the end of my post. 

This month’s box included 2 full sized products, 3  sample  sized products and a lifestyle extra bonus item .  The box mainly consisted of  body, Skincare, make up and beauty products this month. Definitely a good mix of products and I received all the products I was hoping for this month from the spoiler which was released.

With Birchbox not everyone gets the same products its quite varied.  To see the range of this months products please click here

1.    Beauty Blender and Blender Cleanser  Full Size RRP £16.00

This is a boxed travel set of one beauty blender’s classic. This set also contains a solid cleanser.

I currently own a Beautyblender however it’s seen better days so welcomed this new one.  I use to apply my foundation with brushes and triangular sponges and always wondered why my foundation looked cakey then came  along the Beauty Blender a sponge created without edges in order to eliminate visible lines and streaks. It’s unique shape has so many uses.

I use the pointed side for hard-to-reach spots like around the nose and mouth, and under the eyes and the  round base for foundation on the larger areas of my face such as your forehead, cheeks and chin. You can also use the pointed side for apply concealer which I usually do.

This cleanser is a travel friendly alternative to the original liquid blender cleanser and provides the same cleansing results and soothing lavender fragrance.

I really can’t recommend this enough it leaves my foundation looking flawless and smooth unlike any other beauty tool.

2.   Yves Rocher Sheer Botanical Lipstick in shade Marron Glace  – Full Size  Introductory Price is £9.60 RRP £18.00

This lipstick is a new line by Yves Rocher. This sheer botanical lipstick is made from 100% cherry oil. Cherry oil has the power to shine and refract light and it’s ultra sensual texture easily blends in to enhance the lips with a glossy colour. The intensity can be changed as desired and is available in 12 shades.

I received the shade Marron Glace which is a sheer brown with a pink tone. A lovely colour and this smells absolutely divine.

3.     Caudalie Divine Oil – Sample Size 15ml. Full Size 100ml RRP £27.00

4.     OPI Nail Varnish in shade AmazON…AmazOFF (Brazilian Collection)  – Sample Size 3.75ml. Full Size £11.00

I love OPI nail varnish so was happy to see this in my box.

The colour I received was AmazON…AmazOFF which is the equivalent of a teal color. This colour is from OPI’s Brazilian Collection range.

Will definitely try this over the weekend – I love the colour.

5. Coola Classic Face Sunscreen – Sample Size 7ml Full Size 50ml RRP £26.00

This sunscreen is specifically for your face and does not leave any white residue! It’s unscented and is crafted with 70% organic non-active ingredients, it also contains antioxidants to fight ageing and redness.

SPF really does not agree with my oily skin and therefore I will probably stay clear of this however a great concept.

6. BirchBox Brazil Inspired Keyring – Lifestyle Extra

A cute little flip-flop keyring exclusively designed by Birchbox for their subscribers.

I’m a sucker for cute little things and I absolutely love this and this finishes off the theme very nicely.

My Verdict

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better Birchbox deliver another fantastic box.

  Birchbox’s theme this month is the World Cup, bringing their top beauty players from around the globe  in one little beauty box. A fab theme this month and the addition of the Brazil inspired key ring and the Brazil coloured bag really finishes off the theme.

The item which most subscribers were probably hoping for is the Beautyblender and I am pleased that so far majority of the boxes I have seen has included this item however I have also seen a few poor boxes which didn’t contain the beauty blender.

This month’s box included 2 full sized products, 3  sample  sized products and a lifestyle extra bonus item .  The box mainly consisted of  Body, Skincare, make up and beauty products this month. Definitely a good mix of products and I received all the products I was hoping for this month from the spoiler which was released.

I am really impressed with this month’s Birchbox and it appears that their standard has some what improved since February this year.

There’s only one product this month that I wont make use out of so this month was a great box for me.

The contents within this month’s box is worth roughly around £30.00+. Great value for money.

So who would of thought another great BirchBox this month with some iconic brands this month – They certainly know the concept of a beauty box and have been delivering on this front the last few months.
