It's Go Time, with Birchbox!

This month's Birchbox theme is Go Time. According to the insert card, the Birchbox team is all about taking things on this year, instead of giving them up. I'm all for that :)

Birchbox is also having weekly contests, with new prizes each week. Interested? Enter at www.birchbox.com/Sundays.

This month, I received:

1) 100% Pure Nourishing Body Cream: I received three packets in the scent Pink Grapefruit. I have yet to try it, but I love the smell of grapefruit, and I really like that this is 100% natural;

2) Beauty Protector Protect & Detangle Leave in Conditioner: I hardly use leave conditioners, but I'll give this one a try. The insert warns that the "heady scent is addictive"; and it is;

3) Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser: I'm excited to receive this.

I remember a couple of boxes back when some subscribers received this. I wanted to receive it then, but I'm glad I didn't get it until this box. I believe this item (the cleanser and the muslin cloth) previously counted as 2 items - which sucks. This time around it counted as 1 - as it should. I have sensitive skin, but I've looked up a handful of video reviews, and people seem to love it. I can't wait to try it;

4) Ruby Wing color-changing nail polish in the color Kitten Heels:

This is my first color-changing polish. The shade is supposed to go from a bright fuchsia to a rich magenta on the sun. I didn't see any color change when I had it on. Of course it was overcast for pretty much the entire week. I'll try this one again once the weather clears up a bit. However, I love the fuchsia; so I'm good even if it never changes.

Luckily I like tea, because Birchbox sent me tea once again. This month's Lifestyle Extra is a trio of assorted teas from Ahmad Tea London. I'm sure I'll drink them eventually.

This month's box also included some motivational cards. 

My favorite one being this one. 

"Buck fate. Don't sit around waiting for whatever's supposedly meant to be. Make the first move yourself to kick start momentum toward your goal."

Absolutely :)

So, what did all you other Birchboxers think of your January boxes?

My first specs of 2014

My Kid Hero specs have arrived from StunMo!

How much do I love the Time to Stunt slap bracelet that was wrapped around the glasses? A lot. It was a nice nostalgic touch and yes, I immediately slapped it around my hubby's wrist for kicks :)

Kid Hero

It's hard to lead a normal life when you are a

kid superhero. But from time to time it has its

perks. Like staying up way after your bed time, 

having fan-girls and ordering the babysitter

around. These Stunners have the ability to turn

water into soda for the right kid hero.

Collection: Hero; Level: Super

The sunglasses themselves are a totally tubular, black and pink, 80's retro style.

I'll definitely wear these this summer. They are fun enough to wear with jeans, and the pop of hot pink on the inside is a nice surprise.

So, I really like these, but what do you think? If you also have a Stunner of the Month membership, how did you like your January selection? If you would like your own Stunners, head over to www.stunnerofthemonth.com. Use promo code 'trystunner' to get a month free.
