Birchbox July 2015 Unboxing

Hey guys!!

I almost didn't do this post because I am too late with it and I am starting to get excited for next month's box, but I decided to do it anyways because this was a good month. 



  • amika un.Done Texture Spray- This spray is a styling spray that gives hair effortless, tousled volume, loads of shine, and a nice scent. I am in love with their dry shampoo so I am excited to try this product out!
  • dr. brandt Microdermabrasion Skin Exfoliant- This is an at home treatment for a glowing complexion. This exfoliator is very rough on my skin and I am not a big fan. I have received this before in my Ipsy and I will be giving it to someone else. 
  • Juice Beauty STEM CELLULAR CC Cream- This product moisturizes, primes, protects, conceals, and gives sheer coverage. I am not sure what to think about this product to be honest. If I use it I probably use it as a primer since I love medium to full coverage.
  • COOLA Classic SPF 30 Cucumber Moisturizer For Face- As you know it is an SPF moisturizer and great for the summer time especially if your out all the time. 
  • Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick- This is what I was really excited about! My friend always raves about the Beso shade and I had been wanting to try it out ever since. I received the shade Venezia. I hope the formula is great on my lips.
Well that is what I received. If you guys are interested in Birchbox it is $10 a month for 5 samples or deluxe sized samples. Lately they have been quite a few deluxe sized samples. If you are still interested you can go here to sign up.

What did you guys get in this month's Birchbox?? Did you like the products you received??

Rose and Ben Beauty Brushes

 Hey guys!! I haven't done a beauty post in a while and I was in the mood to do one because I am very excited to talk about these! I started follow Rose on IG roseandben  thanks to my friend and I have been loving her content. You can see the passion she has for makeup. I love that she posts on IG stories almost everyday doing a tutorial or talking about her fav products.  I have actually purchased and few of her recommendations and 99% of the products I have bought have become staples in my collection.  When she announced she was coming out with a brand  Rose and Ben Beauty  I just knew it would be brushes because she would always be using prototypes in her tutorials. I trusted her judgment in products soooo I bought most of the collection.  Aren't these brushes beautiful?? When I first got the brushes I felt the bristles and they were so soft. The quality of the bristles and even the handles feels so luxurious. I love the color of the handles too. I only started following her

What Are AHA's??

 Hey guys!!! AHA's(Alpha Hydroxy Acids) is water-soluble, exfoliates dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, reveals healthy looking skin, and it is suitable for all skin types. It helps stimulate collagen, hydrates the skin, brightens the skin, helps lessen skin texture, helps with acne scars, signs of sun damage, and dark spots. There are different types of AHA's out there.  Glycolic Acid Glycolic acid is the most well known and is used in skin care and is also used by a professional in a chemical peel.  It is either used alone in a skincare product or combined with another AHA ingredients at concentrations of 5% and up. It helps to enhance skin's firmness and resilience while softening signs of sun damage.  The size of this acid allows it to penetrate the uppermost layers of the skin to reveal better looking skin. Also it hydrates the skin, and basically helps the skin retain the natural moisture. Glycolic acid can be derived from sugar cane, but they only use the

What are BHA's??

 Hey guys!!! The other day I spoke about AHA's and the different types of AHA's and now it is BHA's.  BHA's(Beta Hydroxy Acids) can get deeper into the pores to remove dead skin cells and excess sebum. It is oil-soluble so it allows it to penetrate deep into the pores and gently breaks up blockages that clogs your pores. That will help with lessening your acne and less visible pores. If you have blackheads, on your nose especially, it can help getting rid of them without damaging your skin like the Biore pore strips do. Also prevents new ones from forming. It could also help with Keratosis Pilaris(KP) in body washes or even body lotions/butters. BHA's are good for all skin types, but especially oily, acne prone skin. Salicylic Acid Salicylic Acid is the most well known out of all of them. It helps reduce acne by exfoliating the skin and keeping the pores clear. It helps with mild acne, blackheads and whiteheads, can help prevent future breakouts.  Tropic Acid, Tret
