This Birchbox (July) was put together through a partnership with Glamour magazine (oohs and ahhs may be inserted here if you feel the need for additional effect)...It also has to do with the senses: smell, touch, taste, hear and see...it was actually a great little box! SN: When I got home August's box was here and I haven't opened it yet, but I've been hearing good things ;)
Box Cover. Off with the lid!! The Contents!!

Here's what I got in my box:
*An Eyeko London Skinny liquid liner in black...this looks full size to me, or very close (but like I said I lost my content card so I'm wingin' this...sorrry)...It's a felt tip liquid liner, and it goes on really smooth. A few "mehh" things about it...I thought the application lacked in pigment when applying over shadow, but on it's own or with nude/neutrals it was great. The lasting power, well, it was ok, enough to get through a standard workday with no smudging I suppose...when I layered it over my Urban Decay 24/7 in Zero, that was the golden ticket of pigment and lasting power right there!!
*AHAVA Time to Clear Purifying Mud Mask... .9 oz sample size. This is a dead sea mud mask good for sensitive skin, which actually, I think I may use today...I need some purifying.
* mintease Regroup tea mints...flavor--ginger pear...this is pretty self-explanatory, yes...
*Earbuds...mine are neon blue and pink...so pretty colors are always a plus in my book! Glamour's beauty editors out together a "getting pretty" playlist that can be found at glamour.com/spotify.
*Harvey Prince "You had me at Hello" fragrance sample...this smells soooo good, I was pleasantly surprised. You can go to harveyprince.com to read up on the brand and check things out. It's a cool company they started in dedication to their mother, and all their ingredients are natural and high quality. This particular scent is made from meyer lemon, mandarin, grapefruit, forsythia (a floral) and plumeria. They use the citrus because "it's nature's way of saying 'Good Morning'", the forsythia because it's an early Spring bloom that is a welcome sign of new beginnings and possibilities and the plumeria because the flowers are traditionally used in Hawaiian leis, given to greet old and new friends. Rad!
