Review: April's BirchBox

Hello everyone,

It's the beginning of another month, and for those who have subscriptions' - like myself, get pretty excited waiting for the postman at this time! I currently am only subscribed to Birchbox at the moment and pondering around the thought of joining Glossybox - what are your favourite subscription boxes if you have them?

So far, so many of you and my work friends have since joined! as they love the idea of getting 5 products tailored to you delivered to the door each month. I can't blame them, can you? Who doesn't want it to feel like Christmas or Birthday's every month! If you would like to sign up also please message me for my discount link where you can get £5 OFF your first box!

This month, Birchbox have partnered up with Boden clothing to create this uniquely bold and beautiful Spring box. It definitely does pop and looks super pretty and cute - one of my fave designs so far! I enjoy seeing the different designs as much as the products!


 
Contents Inside My April Birch Box
 
 
1. Manna Kadar Cosmetics - Radiance Bronzer & Highlight Duo | RRP £17
 
I was super excited when Birchbox announced we would receive some full-size make-up products this month, and they did not disappoint! I have swatched them both below, they are really smooth and creamy powder products which are easy to apply! They are both glowing products, and perfect for this season. I was very impressed with the quality of this duo. The highlight is a champagne, pearl tone, and the bronzer is a shimmery golden tone.
 
 
2. Nip & Fab - Colour Correcting Concealer | RRP £8.95
 
If you're all caught up with my blog posts, and saw my Drugstore tutorial you'll know just how impressed I was with the green corrector I received in my box tailored to reducing redness in the skin complexion that I used it before writing up my review and blogpost for this month's box. I usually get redness around my cheeks and sometimes slightly underneath my eyes, I applied a thin layer of this corrector, then went in with foundation - as you can see you cannot see any redness! This is a miracle in a bottle!
 
 
3. Polaar - IcePure Gentle Scrub with Arctic Cotton | RRP £23.50
 
This scrub does exactly what it sets out too as per the description, this gentle scrub applies evenly to the skin, adding nourishment and moisture back into those dull and tired pores! I am usually quite timid when trying out skincare products as I have sensitive skin, but had absolutely no issues with this at all. My skin felt so fresh, healthy and smooth afterwards!
 
 
4. PALOR by Jeff Chastain - Volumizing Lifting Spray | RRP £18.50
 
This product smells lovely, the spray on the bottle is a good standard (especially for a sample/travel size) as it evenly distributes product onto the hair. This product adds volume, and shine to your hair, making your hair go from dull to glam in seconds!
 
5. Baja Paris - Crème Moana in Fleur de Tiare body cream | RRP £15.90
 
I have read lots of reviews on this product on the Birchbox site already, and was super impressed and eager to try! I used this for the first time today and fell in love as soon as I unscrewed the lid. The smell is so refreshing, and full on Summery scents. Back on track now., although smell is important, does the product live up to the reviews? And my answer is yes! absolutely, the blend of different products such as coconut
oil and different butters immediately adds so much moisture back into my skin! This is my favourite product from this month's box.
 
I absoutley loved receiving my April Birchbox, the box came on Saturday 8th which I felt was really quick service! The box always looks so pretty and I can never fault the 5 luxe beauty treats I receive! If you have been on the fence, now's the time to get one! I can help you set up your own beauty profile and a £5 off discount link - that means your first box will be ONLY £7.95!
 
INFORMATION - the beauty subscription service is £12.95 inc. P&P please go onto Birchbox's website for further information.
