April Birchbox Review

April Birchbox review

While it may not feel like spring is on the horizon this month’s Birchbox, in collaboration with Rifle Paper Co, really does add a touch of spring with this gorgeous floral design! The box itself is packed full of great new discoveries that means you can put away those heavy duty winter products and treat your skin to something lighter and fresher. So let me show you what is in the April Birchbox:

Parlous by Jeff Chastain Detangling Leave-in Conditioner 30ml

April Birchbox review

I’ve not tried anything from Parlour by Jeff Chastain before but if the other products are anything like this detangling spray then I know I love them. This spray works in two ways, as a leave-in conditioner and as a thermal protection spray. With sweet almond extract to protect the hair fibres the formula works to infuse softness and volume into weak or damaged hair.

Kueshi Foot Cream 40ml

April Birchbox review

This product could not come at a better time. I’ve really neglected my feet over winter and will spring hopefully making an appearance very soon, I need to get my feet spring ready. This formula is enriched with sweet almond oil and royal jelly to really smooth and soften your feet.

Balance Me Tinted Wonder Eye Cream 5ml

April Birchbox review

As someone with pretty stubborn dark circles I love trying out products that are good for the eye area whilst also concealing my lack of sleep at the same time. Not only does this product care for your delicate skin underneath your eyes but it also adds a wash of concealing colour. It’s 99% natural, incredibly light in texture and comes in one universal shade that has light reflecting particles to suit all skin tones.

Benefit Dew the Hoola 30ml

April Birchbox review

This was the product I was most excited to try this month. I love Benefit as a brand and I’m yet to find a product of theirs that I don’t love. This is a new launch from them and Dew the Hoold is a liquid version of their best selling powder bronzer – Hoola. Having tried a little of this already I was really impressed with the colour pay off and staying powder. I know as soon as this runs out I’ll be out purchasing the full sized bottle.

Cynthia Rowley Beauty Eyeliner in Black

April Birchbox review Who doesn’t love a black eyeliner? I literally use eyeliner everyday so I was very happy to see this super cute eyeliner in this month’s box. The packaging is just beautiful and I love the smooth and long wearing formula of this eyeliner.

Have you picked up this month’s Birchbox yet?

    the bronzer looks great, liquid goes a long way if you blend it out.

    What a great little box. The Tinted Wonder Eye Cream is brilliant. It’s light yet adds a sheer colour that makes peepers look a little brighter. Tx
