Radiant? I’d like to think that I am pretty darn radiant and simple to a fault. I like things to be easy, to many directions can ruin the fun and add time to a get ready routine. The products in the simply radiant box will bring out your inner radiant goddess.

July 2016 – simply RADIANT

L’Oréal Paris Advanced Haircare Color Vibrancy Nourishing Shampoo & Conditioner: Antioxidants and UV filters nourish and help protect color-treated hair from fading for up to 8 weeks of vibrant color.

Dessange Paris Purifying Clay Balancing Shampoo: Clay purifies oily roots while pro-vitamin B5 moisturizes dry ends. Use with pre-shampoo clay mask, sold separately.

Wet n Wild Max Fanatic Mascara: Its intense formula creates 8 times the volume. Includes a fan-shaped brush that adds length and extra drama to the corners of your lashes.

Derma E Firming DMAE Eye Lift with Instalift and Advanced Peptides:Made with antioxidants, peptides and DMAE to firm skin, smooth crow’s feet and boost collagens. Vegan & non-GMO.

Acure Organics Facial Cleansing Gel: Organic olive oil and chlorella growth factor remove dirt and oil while boosting cells to leave skin radiantly refreshed.

Aquaphor Healing Ointment: Dermatologist recommended, this multipurpose ointment moisturizes severely dry skin and also soothes minor cuts, scrapes and burns. Fragrance free.

As always the folks over at Target put together an amazing box for an amazing price. It has become apparent that the box is now monthly, they just need to go ahead and start a subscription service and put the free-for all fight to bed. Then again stalking the site and pouncing as soon as that bad boy goes live is part of the thrill. I take my thrills where I can get them!

The Target Beauty Box is not a subscription service, they are first come first served, if they are sold out then you my friends are out of luck. I just checked target.com and the March box is OUT OF STOCK. For $7 this box is a great deal, that is if you can get your hands on one, they always sellout like hotcakes. So don’t sit on the beauty fence when you see them, just throw it in your virtual cart and call it a day!

July 2016

Mornings? I am a morning person, I love to wake up at the crack of 11AM. However my work schedule gets in the way of my sleepy time, so I am forced to get up at 6:30am during the week and well the dog has no concept of time, so I wake up round 7 on the weekends.

Simplicity gets me out of the door quickly.Ya know because I have to catch them all, yes I to am hooked on the Pokemon Go craze. I love it! Anyways simplicity is best because it gets me out to the bus stop on time. I am a night shower person, so with that out of the way, all I do in the morning is makeup, brush teeth, and my hair. Plus walk the dog, the dog must be walked otherwise he gets angry. No one likes an angry dog.

Enough about my mornings and my dog, let’s get to it. We both know you came here to see what I got in my July Birchbox.

July 2016 – MY MORNING ROUTINE

Benefit Cosmetics – gimmie brow volumizing fiber gel: This innovative, water resistant fiber gel has a precision tip for shaping and build-able formula for thick, lush brows.

COOLA Environmental Repair Plus Radical Recovery After-Sun Lotion: This soothing lotion uses agave to moisturize, protect, and calm any post-sun woes.

MDSolarSciences Mineral Creme SPF 50 Broad Spectrum UVA-UVB Sunscreen: Safe for acne and rosacea prone skinm this silky SPF cream absorbs quickly so it won’t leave a white, greasy sheen.

Milk Makeup Sunshine Oil: This portable rollerball brightens, hydrates, and illuminates to give skin a dewy glow thanks to essential oils.

Smashbox Cosmetics X-Rated Mascara: This unique formula uses Tripod fibers that stack on lashes for endless volume that won’t clump or flake.

This months sample choice was all about mascara, we could chose from three different mascara brands. I chose the smashbox brand and the other four samples were chosen by BirchBox.

In late June our buddies at BirchBox dropped a huge ass bomb, they this is hard for me to type, dropped their points program. We as subscribers no longer earn points for reviewing our monthly samples. I know ladies I too am in morning, maybe they will find something new to keep us intrigued. At this point BirchBox is attached to my soul and I am not ready to pull the plug on my subscription, so for now that bright pink box will still don my door step.
