November Birchbox 2011

Getting fall-ready.




What was in my November Birchbox:

  1. Zoya nail lacquer in Noel
  2. La Rocca Champagne and shimmer sugar polish
  3. Oscar Blandi Jasmine protein mist
  4. Klorane soothing eye makeup remover with cornflower water
  5. Chuao firecracker chocolate bar
Product impressions:

I am loving the Zoya nail polish. I painted my nails Sunday afternoon and they are still looking fab (Tuesday afternoon) ... LOVING THE COLOR! It dried really fast, which I find to be a MAJOR plus! 

La Rocca sugar polish- I took a bath and used this on my chest, hands, knees and elbows. It felt amazing while applying, very moisturizing! The only complaint I have is the scent, its not a bad scent, I would just like for it to smell better!  Other than that I give this product a 9 out of 10 (10 being the best) My skin felt amazing afterwards! I wouldn't ever purchase anything like this, but the sample size will be nice to treat myself with every now and then. It'll b perfect to moisturize during the dry, winter months.

Oscar Blandi hair protein- I have used this once. I am VERY low maintenance when it comes to hair!! I did like this product tho. Its a nice product to use if you're going out after work and want to spray a little something in your hair to smooth it out and prepare it for restyling. - I give this product a 9! 

Klorane- I am really liking this eyemakeup remover... just LIKING tho. I am not loving it. I have used it almost every night to take off residue mascara. It doesn't do as good of a job as I would like it to for removing waterproof mascara. It smells kinda funny..  I give this product a 6/10 because its lack to removal all the waterproof mascara.

Chuao firecracker chocolate- This was interesting... I love chocolate, but I am more of a milk chocolate girl. I was really hesitant about trying this cause the package described it as "dark chocolate laced in chipolte with popping candy"... didn't sound good to me, but I tried it, and surprisingly enough it wasn't too bad. The chocolate was very good, I didn't like the spicy-ness of it, but I did like the popping candy. It was like the little pop-rock things you used to get when you were a kid. It was different, but pretty tasty..  its not something I will want a whole bar of.. The bonus size was just enough.


Lots of love. Happy fall :)

God Bless,
