BirchBox - June 2012

Image
Just wanted to show you what I got in my Birchbox this month.  I had cancelled it for a few months but started it back 2 months ago and glad I did.  Birchbox is a monthly subscription service for $10.  Sometimes you get full sized products or generous sample sized products, usually higher end products which is good to try before you buy. It's always nicely packaged. Loved this months products! Here's the card that comes with it, I won't go into listing each product  because you can read it yourself.  Click on the photo to enlarge. On the left is the Clark's Botanicals Ultra Rich Lip Tint in 03 Madge Mauve, loved the feeling on my lips, not tacky at all.   On the right is theBalm Stainiac in Beauty Queen, can be used on Lips or Cheeks. This is a stain, and while I personally loved it for my lips, I don't think I would try it on my cheeks, it stained my hand for 2 days. If you would like to give Birchbox a try, they also have a box for men now, just click o...

Guest Post - Blue Water-Marble Mani from Patricia at Southern Sister Polish

Hi all you Midnight Manicurists ^_^ Jeanie let me come over and join y'all for the night! ^_^ Thanks for having me Jeanie! ok so I'm sharing a water-marble I did recently. I started with two coats of Essie Barefoot in Blue. Then I got to water-marbling. I paired Barefoot in Blue with my favorite blue that I own O.P.I. Yoga-ta Get this Blue! That a dear friend gave me <3 (I dipped my pinkie and ring finger together and my index and middle finger together...so they would have a blooming flower look) With my pinkie and ring fingers I started my bulls eye with BiB and ended with BiB ...and for my middle and index fingers I started and ended with YGtB.  My thumb I was playing around and did a couple of double drips in the mix...here are the pictures.. And I wasn't done after that I decided it needed a little sparkle so I took Northern Lights Hologram Top Coat (in silver) and put that on...I thought it needed a touch of sparkle! Thanks Again for having me over here Jeanie :)  ...
