Just Because…Birchbox
Last night I took the $10 plunge and signed up for the beauty-box-of-the-month club, Birchbox! This club is relatively new but so far the press and reviews have been great! In case you haven’t heard about Birchbox here’s a quick rundown…every month, for $10, you get a box with four or five beauty samples. The samples cover hair, skin, makeup, body, and fragrance.

5 Tips for A Long, Long, Flight
While I’ll be wearing makeup from that day, first thing I plan on doing is using my Neutrogena Makeup Cleansing Towelettes to take it off when I get in my seat. I don’t want to clog my pores by keeping it on the whole flight (yuck.), especially if I’m already in a dry environment. So off comes the makeup, on goes my Origins Perfect World moisturizer.
My next upkeep essential is Caudalie’s Beauty Elixir. I love, love, love this facial spray, it’s great when you need a pick me up during the day, tingly on the skin, smells like peppermint, and I know I’m gonna need that when stepping off that plane. This is my favorite refresher spray, and although it’s expensive, the luxurious feel is so worth it!
My last key upkeep essential is Bliss High Intensity Hand Cream. I love this hand cream because it isn’t greasy and truly is high intensity. My hands feel silky after using it, which is always a plus!!

I thought this necklace was really pretty and I absolutely love the colors. It’s light and perfect for the summer– I think I’ll layer on tons of bracelets with complementing colors when I wear this. |
