June Birchbox | Beauty

It's June, which can only mean it's time for another Birchbox and this one is stunning! This month's Birchbox is a collaboration with the shoe brand French Sole and they offered 3 different designs and this floral one was by far my favourite. It's just so pretty, I love the water colour look to the box.

I had really high hopes for this box however I must admit, again, I opened it up and wasn't thrilled by everything. In this month's box we have STYL temporary metallic tattoos which I am never going to wear. You can actually add these on top of a manicure but even then, I won't use them. There was also a Penhaligon's sample of Iris Prima which I really didn't like the scent of, it's a little masculine for me and I'm not really a fan of sandalwood either. 

Moving onto some of the other samples, starting with HIP Utlra Shine shampoo, if you have read my previous posts you know I hate it when I get shampoo in my box, I mean how can I get a solid opinion without having a conditioner as well? Next we have the ModelCo mascara which is a fine sample, mascara always comes in handy but I've already got my mascara so I probably won't use this one and give it to my mother instead.  

I was pretty happy to see the Balance Me Body Wash, it's a fantastic size and a fantastic brand. I'm definitely going to use this one, it's already in my gym bag. It's quite a fresh scent but not one I can liken to anything else. Ren Beauty Shot was an interesting one, it's a face cream that is supposed to firm your face instantly. I doubt I'm going to use it a lot but I am excited to try something from this brand as I haven't before. 

Any finally, easily the best thing about this box, was the gorgeous French Sole shoe bag, it's in exactly the same pattern as my box and I am in love. However, I think it's too pretty to put my shoes in it, so I'm actually going to use this to store my make up brushes in when I travel.
