Birchbox November Opening!

This is only my third ever Birchbox but last month I was a little bit disappointed with some of the things I got and was already in debate about cancelling my subscription but I decided that I wanted to give it another chance and wait until I saw what I received in my November box! Well when I received this box I loved the design, it's so pretty! Unfortunately what I received inside my box did sadly not reflect the beautiful outside, it wasn't all terrible I just sadly didn't like most of what I received!Below is what I received:

LOC- One and Done Shadow Stick in shade 'On Point'- This is a Birchbox exclusive and it's one of the only things I really loved in this box, I knew that I was receiving this because we got to pick the colour we wanted! It's a new makeup line that has been created by Tati Westbrook and I really like the shade I picked, I wanted something that was nice and easy to blend, an easy every day shade to wear which is why On Point is perfect!

My Daughter Fragrances 'Joyful'- This is the first fragrance sample I received from Birchbox, I can be really picky about fragrances and scents of things and I'm sure i'm not the only one! I don't actually mind the scent of this, you can really smell the lime blossom and I think it has a very citrussy minty scent, I don't know why I think it has a hint of mint because it has orange flower, rose, jasmine and sandle wood all packed in there.

Paula's Choice- Skin Perfecting 8% AHA Gel Exfoliant-  Well that has a long name! This skin perfecting gel is supposed create even, radiant skin tone and stimulate collagen production. I am very picky with my face skincare, my face just seems to be so sensitive to change and so therefore to prevent breakouts and stop my skin flaring up I tend to stick to my regular face care so i'm not sure how I feel about this, it also had absolutely no scent what so ever!

Salon Gioje- Keratin Protein Mask- Firstly this has a really strong manly smell, like a strong after shave for a man! For the second time in the Birchboxes I have received that I have been sent a sample that has packaging that is not clear that it is a HAIR MASK, even after smelling it and checking it out until the minute I was writing this and checking the product list they give you I noticed 'Repairs your locks' WHY IS IT NEVER CLEAR?! I probably would have ended up putting this on my face...

Temple Spa- La La Lagoon Aromatic Bath & Shower Gel- This is really minty, it contains mint, peppermint and basil, you cant really smell the basil its mostly just mint with herbal hints. This is supposed to be great at soothing stress as well as giving you soft skin!
