Birchbox December
December 2015 All Wrapped Up
theBalm® cosmetics Frat Boy® Blush/Shadow
Nice color for that perfect flushed look
JUARA Coconut Illipe Hand & Nail Balm
Super hydrating and nongreasy. It also has a nice light coconut scent
Oscar De La Renta Signature Eau de Toilette
This is just way to heavy and floral for me. On the plus side, if you like this scent, it has awesome staying power.
Coastal Scents® styleEYES
This was the sample choice this month. I’m not a huge fan of the Green color, but I like the Gold okay. They have a Fine shimmer and are highly pigmented. I found them a little hard to blend, though.
COOLA® Classic SPF 30 Cucumber Moisturizer for Face
I really like the Coola brand, but thought it was a little weird they included this in my box this month. I know you should wear sunscreen year round, but this is not an item I would expect to get in December. I normally just use an SPF that’s already included in my foundation. I think I will hang onto this until summer.
Overall, this wasn’t a super impressive month from Birchbox, but the past couple months have been pretty good. Can’t wait to see what I get next month!
