or maybe just some make-up… here’s my latest boxes…

Julep- April

Julep skipped my march box so no fancy oil or shimmery purple polish, but i did get april’s box, which i think was better. The taupe is a really beautiful neutral color and the red a lovely bright bombshell/pin-up raspberry red. (both look awesome with my essie Luxeffects “as gold as it gets” as a top coat). The pedi creme is pretty nice. The cosmetic bag was ok, kind of flimsy feeling and i have a nice one already so it went away. The pedicure thingies i have never tried before so i kept them to see if they help, and the chocolate eggs, pretty waxy and bland, but heck they were chocolate so i ate them. Hey, I may have high standards for chocolate but i will not look a gift chocolate in the mouth.

Julep, you are tempting me to stay on for one more month…

Birch Box- April

Full size yummy lipbalm, a portland company even! I love “Yes to” products and have used their cucumber facial wipes traveling before. They are great for freshening up on long plane trips. Night creme, sure i’ll give it a go, it smells fine and i have heard good things about Weleda. Ditto on the J.R. Watkins foot salve. The perfume sample upon first sniff isn’t anything to write home to mother about but we’ll see how i like it after wearing it. My gut feeling is that it won’t be anything exciting but, eh, who knows. Not a bad month at all.
