This month Birchbox released their own cosmetic line (Love of Color, or LOC for short) and each box contained either a lipstick or eye shadow stick. I chose the berry lipstick shade.
I'm not a huge fan of perfume surprises, but this one isn't too bad, just a little strong for me.
The Balm Frat Boy blush is a beautiful color, the hair serum is good, and not to heavily scented, and lastly the body wash I've yet to use but has a very masculine scent in the bottle.
While I love the formula of this lipstick I expected the shade to be far darker than it is on me. Still a pretty color, just not what I pictured.
Have you received your box(es) yet? Are we box twins?
Have a great day!

MOTW/ OOTW 7
I've been in a blah mood lately, and my skin is breaking out like crazy, so I only wore makeup once this week (today, top left pic).
Have a great day!

Life Update (October)
The first and second Saturdays in October we spent at my sisters new house, it's coming together nicely.
My hubby had his 36th B-Day on the 6th!
Sunday the 11th we went to Heritage Days in a neighboring town, not what we thought it was going to be. They should have called it quilt & craft show.
On Wednesday the 14th we discovered the tub drain was leaking, and Mom's bed was SOAKING wet. We had to let that dry out and Chris was able to fix it on Sunday.
During this time I switched the Summer clothes out to fall/winter, hubby had his computer/game design class, we went to one haunted attraction, and we did the final inspection at Mom's house.
On the 23rd Mom took a vacation day and I went with her to get all her utilities turned on, at 4pm she had her closing and we were out of there by 4:45pm.
Saturday she moved, and it only took the one day!
On Halloween we had our party, which was a lot of work for so few people to actually come. (When you RSVP you should show up, or at least text or call saying you can't~ I don't even need a reason just some common courtesy.) We haven't decided if we will host next year or not, even though Halloween is Hubbys favorite. We did actually get a few (3) trick-or-treaters, and are thinking about doing a Trunk or Treat next year instead.
Our only plans for November are Thanksgiving & Black Friday shopping! (It's something Chris and I do every year.)
Have a great day!

Most of these clothes you've seen before with a few exceptions, and I'm pretty sure all the makeup has been linked previously.
If you have any questions about a product, or anything else leave them in the comments below and I will answer ASAP.
