April's UK Birchbox (Bloomin' Marvelous) was a collaboration with Rifle Paper Company, and subscribers could choose which box design that they wanted from a choice of two designs: the herb garden design or the floral garden design. I choose the herb garden design. For those who do not know, Birchbox is a monthly beauty and skincare subscription box, and each subscriber receives around five sample (or sometimes full-size) products in each box.
This month, a product from cosmetics company Benefit was promised with each box. I received the following items in my box:
So Susan Lip Dome in 'blackcurrant' - Two shades were up for grabs this month, and I received the darker shade called 'blackcurrant'. The product is not clumpy and it leaves a tint of the colour on the lips.
Balance Me Tinted Wonder Eye Cream (x2): Okay, I've previously received this same product in one of the first Birchboxes that I had received, and I don't use this type of product. Also, I never noticed any difference when using it (or not using it). Others received the Cynthia Rowley eye liner pencil, and I loved this product and would not have minded a repeat of it.
Parlor Detangling leave-in conditioner: I've also previously used this product before and think I must have received a sample size in a previous box. The product seemed to do as it claimed and smelled pleasant.
Benefit 'Dew the Hoola' bronzing powder: I received the bronzer, and it's not a product that I've tried before. I was really impressed with this bronzing liquid. It bronzed and highlighted my skin tone slightly. I would purchase this.
Kueshi Foot Care Cream: As a reminder that summer will be with us soon, it appears that every subscriber received this foot cream in order to give their feet a little after-winter TLC. This product does not have the best scent. I don't tend to use foot creams, but I did use this product but did not have a sudden change to start using foot creams regularly.
