So I am super duper behind on talking/sharing my birchbox goodies each month with ya'll! In my defense... I have been a little busy! But now that the wedding is over and the honeymoon has come and pass, I will be more diligent about posting my birchbox and actually giving a personal opinion on each of the products! I know it is one thing to just look at the products, but it is also nice to know how well they work and what not! So here is a recap of August's products:
Caudalie Premier Cru The Eye Cream: lush eye cream that tackles all the main signs of aging: dehydration, fine lines, loss of elasticity and firmness, puffiness, and dark circles.
FIX Malibu Wish Wash Exfoliating Powder Wash: This fine powder magically turns into foaming cleanser when you add water, which makes it both practical and nifty
Number 4 L'eau de Mer Hydrating Shampoo: The satiny formula is gentle enough to use every day and helps to soften and hydrate strands with natural essential oils and extracts.
Number 4 Lumiere d'hiver Reconstructing Masque: A super-hydrating leave-in treatment. We’re partial to Number 4’s™ Lumiere d’hiver Reconstructing Masque because it infuses moisture and protein (the two things that hair needs most!) into strands, leaving our hair soft, shiny, and in far better shape than it was before.
Zoya Touch Collection: Happily, Zoya’s new Touch Collection has three spot-on taupe shades for your minimalist pleasure. Each polish has a slightly different character: Minka is the lightest and a true nude; Shay is slightly darker and pinker; and Pandora is more of a rose-buff hybrid. All three are extremely opaque, with just a touch of shimmer.
Twistband Hair Ties: These chic hair ties keep hair secure without snagging strands or leaving ugly creases. Best of all, they look as good on our wrists as they do in our ponytail.
I promise to go into more depth on my September BirchBox! I also was able to get my hands on a FNO BirchBox!!! So I will definitely share that as well!!
Good Afternoon! I think I am going to start posting each Wednesday (if I can remember!) or maybe a couple Wednesday's a month the things that I am currently loving or obsessed with. I think it will be a fun way as well to look back on these posts and see what I was loving or whatev at that time!! So with no further adue.... What I am ObSeSSing about this week...
Adele Specifically - "Someone Like You" I don't know if you saw her perform at the MTV VMA's... but she rocked! I just love the emotion that was put into this song. I think everyone can relate to this song at one time in their life.
Fantasy Football! - That's right! =) I joined a league at my work for FF and we had our draft on Monday. I have never done anything like that before... and I am totally addicted! I cannot wait until next year's draft because I already have new strategies and ideas! Thursday kicks off the first game and so we will see how my team does! Keep your fingers crossed!!!
Miu Miu Pouches. I have had my eye on Miu Miu for quite some time. They recently allowed for Eshopping in the USA and that makes me very happy!
Last, but not least....
Real Houswives of Beverly Hills
I am an avid Real Houswives fan. All locations, it doesn't matter. But I was particularly anxious for the Season 2 premiere of The Real Houswives of Beverly Hills (RHOBH) because of the controversey surounded by the new season. I was very pleased with the way they handled all of the recnt events on the openining footage. I have a feel Bravo was put in an akward postion on trying to handle the circumstances in the most "PC" way.
