Starbucks March 2016

Oh Yeah I'm Wayyyy Late posting about this subscription box. Wayyy late! Sorry guys...Anyway...This month, well March's box was Papua New Guinea


Ahh this was Really Good! My husband and I have just about finished this whole bag. This blend was very smooth and just all around yummy! I'm not a coffee connoisseur, so you will have to forgive me for not being all fancy about the flavors. I taste no hints of chocolate, or fruit, or what ever your suppose to taste. But if your anything like me, it's coffee. It's either really good, or really crappy. This one has my vote! Really Good!

Fab Fit Fun Spring Box 2016

So I finally received my Spring Box! I've been looking forward to this box, since I got my Winter box. Honestly I was a bit disappointed. Let me get into the box first.



So Inside I received 7 Items

1. Kitchen Herb Garden DIY Kit
Ok this is fun. I love trying to grow herbs, well anything for that matter.

2. Hello Legs
This is a shaving cream. It smells nice, kind of a perfume floral scent. I'm game to give it a try.

3. ISH Contour Kit in Light/Medium
This is nice. But honestly I don't do anything with contouring. I end up looking like some idiot who doesn't know how to wear makeup...Humm I think I need some kind of class on how to do this ugh...

4. Jus D' Amour Bath Bomb
This box has 3 different bath bombs.
1. Love Potion which is Jasmine, Rose & Sandalwood Essential Oil Blend
2. Wake Up, which is Peppermint & Lime Essential Oil Blend
3. Deep Breath, which is Lavender, Chamomile & Ylang Ylang Essential Oil Blend
So far my favorite is Wake Up. It's not an over powering scent

5. Bodipure Keratin Gloves & Socks
Eh I'm not so impressed. This is only 1 pair of gloves and 1 pair of socks. And you also have to keep these on for 20 minutes. With a 5 month old, I do Not have time for that!

6. Merrithew Mat Strap Plus
I'm really not impressed with this. I honestly have zero use for this. I do not do yoga, so I will never be carrying a mat with me. But apparently you can use this for a gentle resistance workout. My luck though, this will fly off of my feet and hit me right in the face.

7. A Happy Necklace
Ok I totally lost the paper that says who this necklace is by. Opps...And of course I can't find it online! But I guess my neck is too fat. It's a choker on me. So not something I will be wearing...I'm really disappointed!

Over All I'm not as excited with this box as I was the Winter Box. I liked a couple of things, but really just disliked a lot. Bummer....What did you guys think?? Did you enjoy your boxes?? Let me know!

Prospurly March 2016

Fhew what a Crazy couple of weeks this has been! My father has opened his own business, so my husband and I have been down there helping get everything up and running..Say some prayers for us please! This is a very exciting and nerve wracking time for us!...Anyway...Let me get onto The Box...


Spring Has Sprung! 
This by far is my favorite subscription box! Let me tell you what I received in the box this month. 

1. Good Morning Essential Oil
This is a blend of ginger, pink grapefruit and ylang ylang. It is suppose to support digestion, and encourage a healthy body. I don't know about all of that, but I do enjoy the smell.

2. Enchanted Story Spa Bath Bombs x2
These smell Sooo good. I'm bummed though, I dropped one and it just shattered :( Me and my butter fingers...

3. Enchanted Story Spa Cherry Blossom Body Butter
I actually liked this body butter. Years ago I was totally into the Cherry Blossom scent, and I ended up getting really burnt out on it. But this has made me remember how much I enjoyed the smell. This body butter is made in small batches, and you really can tell. I'm happy

4. Menagerie Charcoal Face Wash
So I'm really into the Charcoal masks right now. They have really helped my face look more vibrant and help with the dryness. So I can't wait to give this face was a try! PS keep an eye out, a charcoal mask review is coming up shortly.

5. Tops Malibu Flying Magic Butterfly
Seriously...Just Seriously...You wind this butterfly up and put it into a book, and it will fly out. I'm going all dork over here with this. If only my phone would take a video! You guys would love this.

6. Crystals Crafty Beeswax Candles x2
Ok sorry to say but this is the only thing I don't care for in this box. It's just me has nothing to do with the quality of the candles. I'm just not into beeswax candles. But I have a friend who LOVES and I mean LOVES beeswax candles so I will be passing them on to her.
(Side Note: My friend said these candles were awesome, great burn quality. She plans on ordering some.)

7. Nuun All Day Supplement x2
This is a supplement meant to help you stay hydrated and keep your boxy feeling fresh and fit. Hey it's worth a shot!

8. Bonus: MadeCasse 
Yumm...I received a peppermint chocolate bar...Ahhh peppermint and chocolate, is just so crazy good...

If Anyone is interested in signing up for Prospurly's monthly box, Here is the link. You really should give this box a try, your going to end up falling in love with it like me!

And by the way 1857 Trees were planted in partnership with Trees for the Future.

First off Happy St. Patrick's Day! Yes this whole post will be in Green! Yep I just roll that way...

Anyway

This Month's Ipsy bag is Hello Spring.
I received 5 Items


1. Beau Gachis Paris, Eyeshadow Brush
This brush is ok..Honestly feels a little on the cheap side. But hey it's a brush! I'll take it

2. Starlooks Luxe Longwear Eye Pencil in Jet
Yep...Another...Starlooks eye pencil. But this on is in black, so it will do.

3. Marc Anthony Nourising Argan Oil 3 Day Smooth Blow Dry Cream
Ok I'm seeing a pattern here...I've already received this before as well...

4. Nudestix Lip + Cheek Pencil in Mystic
This is a nice lipstick. But there is No way I would use this on my cheeks. It is very creamy and smears very easily. So if you do happen to use it on your cheeks, make sure you set it with sometype of setter. 

5. NYX Cosmetics, Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick in Kitten Heels
This is more of a lipgloss. It's nice, applies very smooth, and seems to stay on. 2 complaints, NOT MY COLOR!! And this will Stain your skin anywhere it touches.

Colour Pop


So I'm on the fence about Colour Pop's Lippie Stix and Lippie Pencil.
I have been wanting to give them a try but was really iffy because these can only be bought online. I hate buying something without trying it first. But I caved and bought 3 different Lippie Stix's and the Lippie Pencil's to go with them.


So the colors I bought were Button (Which is Satin), Brink (Matte), and Frida (Satin but the liner is Matte). 
All of these colors are really pretty. But here is why I am on the fence. They are Very dry. You can see every dry spot and line in my lips. For me to be able to even put on the Liners I have to use chapstick. Which of course makes it almost impossible to apply. This is where I'm having issues! The colors are pretty but make my lips look horrible with out chapstick. Ugh... But, yes another but, they only cost $5 each. So you can't really beat that! What do you guys think? Does anyone else having any problems with the dryness?

Starbucks Reserve Roastery Feb. 2016

Well I knew this day would come....Yep Starbucks has a monthly subscription box! Now don't get me wrong, I am happy about this, but my husband....He is over the moon...Anyway...


So nothing much to look at. The coffee came in pretty much a plane Jane box, but it's coffee...I'm good...

Let me tell you a little bit about this subscription box. It is a monthly box. It cost $24 a month, and from my understanding you will get whole beans. Here is a little bit of info from Starbucks.

Our constant travels around the world take us in search of small-lot, one-of-a-kind coffees that are distinctive enough to earn our Starbucks Reserve® label. Of these rare coffees, we’ve created an even more exclusive selection not found in Starbucks cafés, but through this new monthly subscription.
With a Starbucks Reserve® Roastery Subscription, we will roast a new, exceptional coffee on the second Sunday of each month at our Starbucks Reserve® Roastery and Tasting Room in Seattle. The coffee will be on its way to you the very next day.
Once purchased:
  1. Coffees roast on the second Sunday of the month.
  2. You will receive an email same day sharing details of the exquisite coffee on its way.
  3. Each month, you will receive one 8.8oz bag of whole bean coffee that will ship the following day and arrive to you within 5-8 business days.
  4. You will continue to receive coffees monthly until you cancel this subscription.
So we Finally received our coffee. My husband received the email saying our coffee was on the way. Yeah it took over a week to get here. So that kind of bugged me. Our coffee this month is Rwanda. I sure hope I'm telling you the correct information (Yeah I know Folgers and Maxwell house, that's about as far as I go)....It wasn't a bad coffee. I thought it had a little bit of a bitter taste. My husband enjoyed it.
