Shop My Stash #4

I have been loving shopping my stash, but since I've been doing it every week I find that I don't get to incorporate all the products in to my routine. So I am going to only shop my stash twice a month, once every two weeks. So for this stash shopping post I am actually going to use some products that I already shopped, but didn't get to use yet.

This time around I only have four products; Wet n Wild Cream Eye liner, Milani Crystal Gloss for lips, Jillian Dempsey professional multi-pencil, and Mox Botanicals Lip Butter.

These are the products that I had shopped over the last three weeks and I either didn't get to use them at all or just very little. Now I will have two weeks to give these products another try.

What will you be shopping from you stash?

Shop my Stash #3

Out of last weeks items I shopped from my stash I was only happy with the Rimmel Royal lip glosses. I'm still not sure how well I like the City Curls mascara by NYC, I'm going to use it a little more before I make a decision about it. I was not at all impressed with the L.A. Colors Little Black Book of eye shadows Glam Edition. I didn't even use the Wet n Wild Cream eyeliner in Black, I'll probably try to use that some this week.

Below are the items that I'm shopping from my stash this week.

October Birchbox Hits and Misses

Octobers box was okay for me, I did find a couple of items that I got a lot of use out of.

Hits

• Mox Botanicals Lip Butter. This I have used a ton since I got it. It's very moisturizing on your lips and seems to have good staying power. Click HERE for my full review.
• Mary-Lou Manizer. This I have actually got more use out of it than I thought I would. I love to use it in my inner corners to brightening up my eye looks. And I have also used it when I applyed some eye shadow that actually turned out darker than I wanted it too, I just swept a little over the top of the shadow and it lightened it up. Will do a full review of this soon.

Misses

• No actually misses this month. I gave the Tea to my husband. I have not got around to using the Quidiad gel. And I have not used the Harvey Prince Flirt fragrance much either.

Review: Mox Botanicals Lip Butter

I had never heard of Mox Botanicals until I received a sample of their lip butter in my Birchbox. The claim of this lip butter is that it revives lips with avocado oil and shea butter.

The sample that I received was Pomegranate and Fig. It has a very light ‘fragrance’, but I can’t quite really describe for you the scent I smell. Once you get I put it on my lips I can’t smell it anymore. A lot of things you put on your lips you can also taste, but that is not the case with the Mox lip butter. The consistency of it kind of reminds me of the Carmex that you get in a little jar. A little bit seems to go a long way and it’s not sticky.

I really like this product all the way down to the packaging, which is made out of 100% recyclable MIRON glass. The product feels very good on my lips and keeps them feeling moist and hydrated for quite sometime. Really makes them feel like they are being revived!

Some interesting information about the company; their products are produced using only the highest quality ingredients, which consist of jojoba oil, coconut oil, beeswax from Oregon, Vitamin E and meadowfoam seed oil. Products do not contain parabens, sulfates, chemical preservatives, synthetic fragrances, or dyes. Great alternative to synthetic alcohol-based products. And if you mail them your empty lip butter container, they will refill it and send it back to you for half price plus shipping costs!

October Birchbox

The theme for Octobers box was Transformations!
This month I received a fragrance by Harvey Prince called Flirt. It has fresh citrus and jasmine notes. It's actually the only fragrance I've got in my boxes that I like. Next is a pomegranate and fig lip butter by Mox Botanicals. I also got some climate control heat and humidity gel from Ouidad. The item I'm most excited about is the Mary-Lou Manizer by theBalm cosmetics! I've heard a lot of good things about this brand so I'm excited to try out this product. The last item I got was my Lifestyle Extra which was some assorted teas by Might Leaf Tea.

Did you get a Birchbox this month? If so what did you get?
