I Tried Scentbird And These Are My Thoughts!



I have quite the perfume collection, I'm very much obsessed with perfumes! The excitement of finding that perfect scent, the scent you want to leave behind when you walk out of a room is priceless. I have my favorites but I have to make sure I'm not missing out on any better ones out there. 

That is why Scentbird, a monthly perfume subscription makes perfect sense! I honestly can't believe I had not heard of Scentbird before. I received two beautiful fragrances that I'm seriously in love with.

My Top Three Beauty Boxes...

I decided its time I unsubscribe on a few of my monthly beauty subscriptions, I mean they start to really add up at the end of the month $$$... To help me make the best choice I decided to compare them with each other and choose the one that best meets my taste. The perfect box for me would have to come with a combination of products that are useful for me like makeup, hair products, nail polishes and some skin care... I'm not a big fan of skincare products however since my skin is so sensitive I hardly can try any of them. 

$21 A Month!

The first one I want to talk about is with my all time favorite Glossybox, this one is really my favorite as they always send me the best items, full size surprises and things I can use. Thanks to Glossybox every month I get to try a brands that I otherwise would not even think of.


Februarys box was no different the box came with a full size Lauren b. nail polish, anatomicals under eye patches, a full size Sumita beauty black eye color which is AMAZINGLY pigmented and does not smudge, Pureology leave in anti fade hair beautifier, and a skin & co truffle therapy serum. Apart from the serum I will be using ALL of my goodies in this box. 

$10 A Month
Ipsy is one of my most recent subscriptions and so far it has been a good pick. I like that you get a different little bag every month and its more makeup and less skincare which I love!  


March Ipsy's bag came with a cute colorful makeup bag, NYX 3 color eye shadow, Pixi flawless beauty primer, Chella Eyeliner Pencil, and a bare Minerals moxie trial size lipstick. This months ipsy bag was filled with a good selection of makeup products that I will be trying out.

Birchbox is really hanging by a very thin line with me, they are very unpredictable and can switch it up from lame to awesome from month to month. Why I stick around? I really don't know I guess because when its good its really good? I think this might be the last month Im subscribed to this one...   


March's birchbox was full of blah products a sample size cherie blossom perfume, an impossible to open Minteas, Gilchrist & Soames bidy lotion, Beauty Protector leave in conditioner, Ghirardelli chocolate, and Coola mineral sunscreen. This is one of those boxes that I personally can do without aside from the leave in hair conditioner and the lotion I think everything else is going in my re-gifting piles which happen to all come from Birchboxes.

August Glossy Box


Pure Luxury that was the theme of my August Glossybox... They described this month box to be filled with technologically-advanced products infused with vitamins, natural oils and sublime color. I personally LOVE every single item and can wait to try them all!

Ole Henriksen/ Truth Serum: This high powered vital C complex helps smooth out lines and wrinkles, fights environmental aggressors and keeps your skin moisturized, nourished and protected. 
 What can I say about this product that I haven't already. I LOVE IT! this is really good stuff and I was so happy to get it, since I had ran out of mine. I use this everyday on my skin and it gives me a beautiful healthy glow!

Touch In Sol/ Feel like honey moon skin base: Apply this fantastic primer after your skincare routine and before your makeup. Its honey texture firms and revitalizes the skin and allows for a better makeup application.
Nothing to say about this product yet since I haven't had a chance to try it. I will do a review as soon as I do!

ILLAMASQUA/ Nail Varnish: Award-winning, extremely hardwearing and chop-resistant, there's an illamasqua nail varnish for every shade of humanity.
I was so excited when I saw a nail varnish in my box! I love me some nail polishes and this is a perfect shade. Illamasqua does a really good job creating colors that stand out and last! def a fave..
Biolage/ ExquisiteOil Replenishing Treatment: This treatment is a versatile serum infused with Moringa Oil Blend. This ultimate potion gives instant shine and weightless replenishment to all hair types.
 I own the full size bottle and I LOVE it! and its actually in my August favorite! It really does give a weightless shine, and it smells really good too.

Ellis Faas/ Ellis Lips: The lightweight and long-lasting lip products come in three fabolus textures; creamy lips for a matte finish, milky lips for a gloss finish and a glazed lips for a touch of color. They are paraben-free, loaded with vitamin E and bled into the lips leaving them soft and conditioned.
Here is the color I received L302

 I love the color! its a perfect shade for the fall, its glossy but not sticky and its very pigmented. I can wear it alone or over a matching lipstick for more oomph! Good Luck Xxx

July BirchBox


My July Bichbox was inspired by the 5 senses. They did a pretty good job capturing that idea and sent some really cool stuff. Some I already own, but thats never a bad thing!

Larabar/ UBER : The later addition to our snack drawer, these healthy and satisfying bars are packed with dried nuts and fruits.
  • I tried it and it was really delicious. On the down side I find it a bit pricey so I'm not sure if I will be ordering any of these. variety pack of 16, $27.95

Oscar De Lar Renta/ live in love: This elegant floral layers ethereal notes of hyacinth and orchids over a rich base of sandalwood and cedar.

  • Love it! It smells so clean and sexy! I collect perfumes and this will definitely be one of them.

boscia/Green Tea Blotting Linens: These shine-busting sheets absorb oil with all-natural green tea extracts to leave skin matte.

  • I already own this and will keep buying these as long as the keep making it. these are really the best blotting linens there is. plus you get the extra love of green tea which is a great anti-oxidant. Love, Love, Love!

Eyeko/ Skinny Liquid Eyeliner: Direct from London, these punchy color liners feature a pen-style applicator that's truly goofproof.

  • This is also a second for me, But definitely not disappointed at all. These eyeliners are awesome and are so precise, and easy to control. I just wish they would have sent me a color I dint already own! 

Eyeko/ Skinny Liquid Eyeliner Swatch In Olive

Jouer/ Luminizing Moisture Tint: This lightweight award-winner is our daily shortcut to dewy skin that feels natural and looks gorgeous.

  • I have not tried it! Sorry... As soon as I try it I will review. 

Birchbox Exclusive/ Earbuds: We designed these neon headphones just for you. pair them with your best playlist.

  • These are CUTE! I will definitely get a lot of use out of these.

Good Luck Xxx
