March BirchBox Opening



   
        Happy St. Patrick's day lovelies!
I hope you all are having a wonderful day.  I'm currently enjoying my new BirchBox.  I'm pretty happy with the mix of things I received this time.


        I'll go ahead and start with my least favorite product.  The keims hair care shampoo might be nice for someone else, but I have scalp psoriasis and curly hair.  Sulfate doesn't agree with either of those conditions.  I tried this out even though I didn't think it would work because I heard macadamia and peppermint were good for scalp psoriasis, but my the sulfate still made my scalp burn.  Personally I think it's best to go sulfate free no matter what type of hair a person has because all sulfate does is break down the protein in it.


        Even though this sample is itty bitty I am still excited to have received it, as I am going overseas this summer.  I am most definitely going to be using this on the plane.  Hopefully this will help keep me from getting that tight icky feeling plane air does to my skin.  It has one of those tips that you have to cut to use so I'm going to wait to try this out till then.


        I like the size of this sample, but I don't like the packaging.  It can be used more than once, but this cardboard package ends up having to sit on top of your sink to be used again since you don't want it spilling inside your cabinets or drawers.  I like the product.  It leaves the skin feeling cool and refreshed.


        This was a BirchBox finds item.  I'm definitely looking forward to trying this BB cream for the body, but there hasn't been a day warm enough to wear shorts, or even capris.  Hopefully it warms up a little over spring break so I can give this a try.


        This is the product I was most excited about seeing in my box upon opening.  I've never tried stila products, but I've heard a good deal about them.  I like the slightly orchid tint to this product because it is on trend for spring.  I love the color on, but it is sticky on application and doesn't last long.  I will still be using all of it because I do like the color, and the smooth look the brush gives.


  
        If you are interested in purchasing any of these products, here are the details on the products and prices.  I really enjoyed this months box.  I only had one dud in the box.  If you received a BirchBox, let me know what you got, and what your favorite items were.  If you don't have Birchbox, and are interested in signing up for this $10 a month subscription there will be a link for you below.  Have a lovely St. Patrick's day!
