May Birchbox

This month, Birchbox offered a Naturally Radiant box with a variety of samples for every aspect of summer beauty. The box was designed in collaboration with Keds.


In my box:

Benefit Cosmetics Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer

This bronzer can be used all over for a natural-looking tan or as a contouring powder to sculpt and define.


ModelCo Lip Lacquer - Creme Brûlée

This long-lasting gloss delivers rich, full-pigment color paired with brilliant moisture and shine.


COOLA SPF 30 Organic Makeup Setting Spray

Weightless, matte-finish mist that sets your look, hydrates skin, and blocks UV rays.


Davines LOVE Smoothing Shampoo

Enriched with olive extract and rice protein, this formula smooths frizzed-out and tangle-prone hair.


Davines LOVE Smoothing Conditioner

This conditioner calms frizz with Minuta Olive - it's rich with fatty acids, providing moisture and shine.


CLEAN Blossom Eau de Parfum

This scent features notes of Tunisian neroli, orange blossom, and sensual sandalwood.


I have to say, I love receiving any product from Davines. Their products always smell so amazing and I really enjoy using them. Fun fact, my hairdresser also uses Davines products (shampoo, conditioner, dye, etc) so I get to see how other products in their lines work on my hair.
I've also had this product by COOLA before and I used up the previous sample, so I was happy to get another one! COOLA is an awesome company that makes organic suncare products; I've used both their face and body sunscreen and loved both!
This lipgloss by ModelCo is a very weird color that would probably look ridiculous on my pale self, so I'll be passing it along to a coworker.
I've never tried using bronzer before, but I'm interested to give it a try and see how it makes me look (again, queen of Pale Skin over here).
