How beautiful is the Rifle Paper Co. Birchbox? I actually have a pretty serious love of floral prints, especially ones in this illustrated style. I’m planning on saving the box to store extra lipsticks or notecards.
First up is the LAQA & Co. Sheer Lip Lube Pencil, a hybrid pencil/gloss product. I was pleasantly surprised by this lip pencil. I am usually not a fan of pale pink lip colors because they don’t work well with my skin tone. However, this one ended up being very sheer and only produces a light wash of color. It smells and tastes minty, too, which I love in a lip gloss.
I also received a sample of Harvey Prince Hello Liquid Loofah. I loved the scent. Not sure about the exfoliating properties, though. I didn’t feel any exfoliation.
Whish Three Whishes Body Butter is definitely a keeper! I’m already familiar with this product. It’s light and moisturizing without being sticky, and the scent isn’t overwhelming.
Last, I received samples of Beaver Professional Hydro Nutritive Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner. I liked these products, but they didn’t seem extra special to me. For now, I’ll be sticking to my regular Herbal Essences hair care.
Want to know a secret? I really liked this box as a whole, but my favorite part is the Rifle Paper Co. box itself!
I agree, that f,oral box is so pretty! And handy to have for storage too. Love the body butter, too, and that gloss seems nice, sheer, and minty!

i think that is the prettiest box! i wish i could somehow make it for my computer wallpaper!
The box was SO pretty! I might be repurposing for Mother’s Day
I got the shampoo/conditioner and I agree. Nothing special.
I like the Whish products but I keep getting them :/
I received that hello body wash and didn’t notice any exfoliation either. I keep it in my travel bag.
That lip color looks pretty. I got a LAQA pencil and it’s shocking pink lol not that I can’t rock it but sometimes I’d like a more neutral color
Yeah maybe it’s because i like salt/sugar scrubs for exfoliation, but I definitely did not see why they called the body wash exfoliating. And I have so many bold lip colors that it’s good to get a subtle one now and then!
What a lovely box and of course, the contents aren’t too bad either…
I just used a normal needle for the faux leather wallet, it worked pretty well!
