Birchbox – May 2018

So.

I was planning on posting this on a Monday since I’m trying to make Mondays a “Makeup Monday” kind of thing.  (Yes, I love aliteration – sue me.) But Monday is a holiday in the states so that isn’t happening.  Instead you’re getting it today.

Surprise!

(not really a surprise since I just told you and it’s not like you’re psyhcic and knew I was planning this…..)

Sephora Play! May 2018

I’m not sure if I’ve ever mentioned how much I enjoy getting subscription boxes. Even if the box isn’t all hits for me, it’s still a great surprise to get something fun in the mail! It’s like a small gift to myself every month.

That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed this month’s box!

Birchbox – January 2018

Sephora Play Box – January 2018

Yes.  Yes, I know.  It’s February.  But I had The Plague the week this arrived.  (This was also the post I had planned until I ran into technical difficulties…)

Anyway.  This is one of two beauty subscription boxes I get.  I will be covering the other one tomorrow.  Yes.  It is also from January.  I am HOPING that I’ll be able to review these in a more timely manner in the future.  It does, however, depend on when they arrive…

For those unfamiliar, for a small fee every month ($10, in this case) you get a fun box filled with samples picked for you based on a survey you fill out.  It can be skincare, hair stuff, makeup, perfume, etc.  Most of the time it’s products I can’t afford to try anyway.  So it’s a nice little treat for myself.
