goop




I received my Birchbox today! One of the many reasons I love Birchbox is that they will do these awesome specialty Birchboxes that you can chose to get instead of the regular Birchbox.



One time I received an option to either pick my regular Birchbox or a Seventeen Magazine one. The email kind of gives you an idea and description of what might come in it. I decided to opt out of that one but I still wonder what was in it...I think about certain things too much.


I always told myself I'm going to pick a specialty Birchbox when then offer came up. Well this month it did and let me tell you something-I would have picked this no matter what! This month they let you either pick your regular one or a goo Birchbox. If you don't know what goop is, well you need to check it out. goop is Gwyneth Paltrow's blog and I love it. I also just love her. I love everything about her! Her style, she loves yoga, she is so beautiful, her family is gorgeous, I love her cookbook, I love everything about her!! I loved her even more when she married Chris Martin from Coldplay as well...it just makes me like her more! I just think my husband kinda looks like him too :)



So when this was the Birchbox this month I could not wait to get it!!



Well today is the day! I received it and I'm happy with it! Like I've posted before when I write about Birchbox, I love the letter that comes with it. It kind of gives you a little description about the theme of the blog and what's in it.
**the Pictures of the birchbox here are on top of a cutting board that my talented husband made!






This month the goop box came with a BEAUTIFUL Essie nail polish in Carry On. It's this beautiful shade of this seasons hot color, one that I've blogged about already-ox blood red!! It's not as true to the name as the other color in Essie I blogged about before in "Testing out fall trends" but it's a nice, softer shade of red, a little on the purple side and I like it!! I'm painting my nails with this tomorrow!! $8



Joanna Vargas daily serum is a brightening facial serum that has vitamins A,E, and C with hyaluronic acid (super hydrating). Haven't tried this yet but I'm ready!!! $85



Marie Veronique Organics body oil. I tried this already and I am loving it!! The smell is fresh and light and I feel soft & smooth!! This body oil contains watermelon seed, vegetable squalene, and apricot kernel oils. This oil replenishes your skin and it feels amazing. $36



Sprout lip balm is made in Brooklyn, which I love!! These balms are made with organic coconut butter and feel amazing!! I was looking for a new lip balm to replace my beloved Fresh lip treatment and I think I've found it!! 4 balms for $18 (that's a deal!!)



A little bonus goodie is lemon zest Luna bar!! I love these babies and so does Gwyneth! Pack of 15 for $18.75



I'm a crazy person who loves celebs and all that garbage...I can't help it, it's my guilty pleasure! So if I can try things that they like it just makes me feel like a cool kid. So this box makes me feel like I'm a tad but closer to being as awesome as Gwyneth. Not to mention, I love beauty products and to know what celebrities' favorites are is so cool to me! They can pick anything, any brand, any product in the world, so I really love hearing what they like!!



I know that everyone gets different stuff in their Birchbox but now that I went for the goop birchbox I am real curious to hear what everyone else got! Y'all let me know what you got too!!!
