Birchbox September 2014 Fresh Paint

Details/information of the products in my box, including the missing items that Birchbox is sending me. If you didn't read about the items I was missing in this months Birchbox go back and read my previous post.

Birchbox is also sending me October's box for free because of the mess up, I'm very grateful for the great customer service and love how Birchbox treat their customers!

<3 Thank you again Joey and Sarah at Birchbox for your help! <3

Davines Oi Oil Beautifying Potion

Full size: $ 41.00 4 oz.

Sample Size: 50 ml/ 1.69 fl. oz.

Description: Lightweight, antioxidant-rich serum that tames frizz, ups shine, and prevents breakage.

I love this product and will be using this, I love the Davines products and have received Davines products in past boxes from Birchbox. I highly recommend Davines!

Dr. Jart+ BB Black Label Detox

Full Size: $ 36.00 1.5 oz

Sample Size: 5 ml/ 0.2 fl. oz.

Sample Size: 30 ml/1 fl. oz. + one muslin cloth

Smells amazing, like eucalyptus can't wait to use this and love the packaging.

Pixi Shea Butter Lip Balm in Honey Nectar

Full Size: $8.00 each

This has to be my favorite product in September's box. Hydrates and a little bit of color, very pretty.

The last three products are what I'm missing from September's box that Birchbox is sending me:

Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream

Full Size: $ 16.00 1.25 oz

This moisturizer seems to be a dual purpose cream, interested to try it when it gets here.

Davines Oi/ Conditioner

Full Size: $ 32.00 8.45 oz

Birchbox September 2014 Anniversary Box and missing products.

Birchbox Anniversary Box.

The theme for September 2014 Birchbox is Fresh Paint and for their fourth Anniversary Birchbox is giving us subscribers a beautifully designed box. I love the design and the box personally! There are three different box designs you could receive.

I have to admit I can't help myself and as soon as Birchbox updates their website I look at what I'm going to be getting each month. For September we got to choose a sample and I was getting seven products for September. The sizes of the products are also an ample amount, some people were complaining about the size of the samples and that they were tiny foil packets. Birchbox is really stepping up and working on making customers happy.

My box:

As soon as I opened my box I noticed there was products missing, I only had four items in my box, I looked at the card and realized I was missing three items. This hasn't happened to me before, I had to contact Birchbox in the past and I love the customer service.

I spoke to Joey and she was apologetic, very helpful and is sending me the missing items that weren't in my box. In my opinion Birchbox has the best customer service and points system out of all the beauty boxes that I subscribe to. The missing products were: Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream, Davines Shampoo and Davines Conditioner.

What did you think of September's Art Walk Collection? What polishes did you choose?

I love the lip crayon, very nice color and very smooth not dry at all. I would love to have all four or at least the Cardinal Red and Almond Nude. I have to say my favorite polish this month is Ana and Karmen.
