I've never been a girly-girl. Just ask my dad! I'm the type to go no-makeup, wearing men's tees with my lounge pants and my hair in a pony. But lately, sites like Pinterest have piqued my interest... so to speak! Lol.
Anyway, I found out about Birchbox through another pinner, and I decided there wasn't much to lose in getting a ten-dollar box of surprise beauty goodies shipped my way.
I absolutely love the products that came in June's Birchbox. I got a little sample of Taylor Swift's perfume (not really my scent, but lovely all the same), a peanut butter Luna bar, a bronzer (it looks intimidating, but it's a really great, safer alternative to tanning!), tanning wipes (bye-bye, pasty legs!), and--my favorite product by far--a lip tint that doubles as blush for your cheeks. I love using it, especially since I'm not a big lipstick user. And using it before I apply a light blush really enhances my features!
I highly recommend this site. It's great for tentative newbies such as myself, a fun way to test the waters of the beauty world.
Check it out for yourself! (Sorry for the shameless advertising! It's really cool, yo.)
