Hey cruisers I'm Sheri with CruiseTipsTV. I'm a bit of a subscription box junkie
because I love travel sized items to try before I buy and of course to pack for
cruises.
Birchbox is one of my favorite subscription boxes for several reasons-
it's only ten dollars a month and it's usually filled with a combination of 4 to 5
hair and skin care products. . . and makeup and beauty products.
I like the combination. I also love that Birchbox now offers sample choice
each month so you can at least partially customize your box.
So, now that you know what it is, let's take a look at June's Birchbox. I'm
opening this for the first time but i did peek online at the contents which
they allow you to do after they ship the box, so i have a general idea of what's
inside.
Drum roll please... yay! my June Birchbox is here. I love opening these, they're
always so fun.
They come in these festive pink boxes and they always write your name in something kind of fun and sassy on the outside.
But, the thing is I've decided I don't really
like doing unboxings without my husband so honey come on, come around.
Get out from behind the camera, come join. I'll make room for you. This is all girl stuff
though. We'll do a man unboxing next month in the next target box comes out.
Sound good?
All right let's see what's inside. Pretty. Cute little box. Lots of little gems on
the outside.
This one is called the multi-faceted beauty box. "Whether you're checking
emails on the elliptical are paying bills while getting a pedi
we're pro multitaskers and we expect the same from our products
not unlike the gems on the outside of this box, the beauty gems inside are
truly multifaceted". Fun. Cute. They're so clever. They have the best marketing people.
All right, let's check out what's inside. This looks like some kind of a card,
selling the benefit brow collection. I know that if you did "box choice" this
month you could have chosen either this particular box right here which was
pre-selected or you could have picked one of benefits new brow products in the
color of your choice.
I don't really put brow stuff on my brows so i decided to choose this box.
What do you think? Is this exciting so far?
I'm totally on pins and needles. You're riveted right?
Ok let's see what's inside. All right
this is this looks like some kind of a honey product. It says Reve du Miel. I'm
going to go ahead and pull out my reference card here because I don't know
what this is. Honey for the honey! Honey for the honey - what is it?
Let's get in here.
What what what ...where is this one... ok here we go it's a facial cleansing and makeup
removing gel
full-size. $19 that's $19? I don't think so.
This French multitasker dissolves dirt oil and makeup while soothing and
softening skin.
Let's smell it. Okay, what does that mean? I know that this is honey
but what does that mean? That means dream. Dream of honey. Dream of honey. Ok.
Shall we smell it?
Sniff test? I want to see if it smells like honey. I'm just going to keep going.
You just...Ooh yes oh! That's smells so good...smell...it smells like pure honey.
It does. It does smell like honey. Very nice.
I'm excited to try that. This is coming next. This is coming next. What is this?
Oh, I love Davines! I'm wanna say that they might be an italian brand
and they make wonderful hair products.
This is an authentic cleansing nectar for hair and body okay... so you can put it on
your hair and your body.
This nourishing shampoo meets body wash, uses organic oils to cleanse and hydrate
from head to toe. Ooh, that sounds great. I'm excited to try that one.
I don't know about hair and body though, hmmm. Sounds like something a guy would do.
Just kidding.
I don't know. What's next? We're going to do this one. That's a nice giant sized
bottle. There's a label in here someplace. What is it, what is it?
Let's check it out. Ok. Authentic cleansing nectar for hair and body. Again
another hair and body! So wait what was this one?
Same thing? Oh, ok nevermind.
This packet was a body butter for hair and body and this one is a cleanser for
hair and body. Sorry about that.
That'll be really interesting. Let's see what it has to say. It's got to be good because about they saved
all their money on the label.
It's like half an inch.
Ok this one says and nourishing shampoo meets body wash. . . no no. . . that's the wrong
one oh dear i think i've got my samples mixed up. The little packet was a bonus.
That was a body balm
So this
is the cleansing nectar for hair and body. And that's the bonus.
This is the bonus body butter. Okay what do we have next?
What do you think. Let's go with the PBJ PPJ. See if it smells like peanut butter
and jelly sandwich. Peanut butter jelly time.
pbj smoothie stick raising the roof. Okay, so raising the roof must be the color
this is a fifteen dollar value and this is a full-size. This stick boasts a soft
sweet tit and moisturizes lips with good for you ingredients.
Let's open this sucker and see what we can do to swatch it here.
whoo oh, where's those scissors?
Wow this could be a while. Sneak peak time, this is coming next.
Ok so stick around. What is that? We'll put it back in the box. We can look at that now.
Why don't you hold it up while I'm on opening this one that's called Air Repair
I'll let you hold up your air repair. Complexion boosting moisturizer packed
with antioxidants and humectants this rich formula works as both a mask and a
daily moisturizer. Love that! Always want more moisturizers. That is so perfect for
cruise. You can actually put that in a TSA bag and have no problems with it. Okay
finally we got the pbj smoothie stick open. Let's take a look at this one
I'm going to give it a little swatch here we'll see what kind of pigment we
have. It looks like it's very sheer kind of border somewhere between a violet
and the light pink. Looks really nice. Looks like a good weekend product. What
do you think? Works for me. Works for you?
Very nice, another makeup brand. This looks like one of Birchboxes LOC brands.
LOC is very affordable brand, and this is a one-and-done shadow stick. Oh it's for
eyes. I thought it was a lip color. Looks like we have
this in hot cocoa. Very clever wording
Let's take a little swatch of this so this again is for the eyes.
Oh this is nicely pigmented. Has a bit of bronze in it.
It's kind of on kind of a soft kind of somewhere between a liner in a shadow. I
love this. I will absolutely use it. I love this copper tone, and I think the
idea with LOC brand is to keep them you know the makeup application simple. They
don't want you having to use a million brushes. So awesome! Love this.
Nice, nice birchbox this month. I think it was a a win.
Love it. Win all the way around for a girly girl.
Yeah I can't wait to see that next month. Bye, thanks so much for watching we'll
put a link in the notes below to birchboxes website.
Let us know if you want to see more beauty box unboxings and until next time
get in gear and get cruising
