Everything in my January box!

Oribe Supershine Moisturizing Cream ($5.20) This leave-in moisturizer makes your hair smooth and shiny without weighing it down. The lightweight formula works well even if you’re a wash-and-go type of person, and despite being made for extra-long hair (mine’s chin length) it worked well. It smells good too, like all Oribe products. I love having a little Oribe luxury in my box!

Air Repair Complexion Boosting Moisturizer ($2.76) This hydrating facial moisturizer is perfect for travelers and for anyone who suffers from the dry weather. The formula is packed with antioxidants and humectants that revitalizes your skin, allowing you to have a radiant complexion despite the jet lag.

Stila Cosmetics Huge Extreme Lash Mascara ($10.45) Just one coat of this mascara gives your lashes additional length and volume. It’s perfect to use when you want to achieve a bold look, thanks to the dark pigmented ink like formula. The best thing about it? No clumps!

The brush is uniquely designed to make sure it has enough product to coat each eyelash strand evenly.

Love Of Color Ultra-Gloss Lip Pencil In Purple Reign ($10) It’s an upgraded version of the classic lip gloss! This lip pencil boasts of a high-shine finish and a moisturizing effect. It glides smoothly, so it’s easy to apply. I like that it doesn’t feel sticky and heavy, and the purple color is surprisingly flattering too!

Doucce Cosmetics Freematic Eyeshadow Single In Veronica ($10) Lastly, I received a highly pigmented eyeshadow with a nice shimmer.

Veronica is a peachy color, and it is easily blendable.

All the single eyeshadows from this brand have a magnetic bottom, so you can easily mix and match colors in their customizable palette. They make it easy to replace shades or try a new one without having to buy a whole palette.

Here are the swatches! On top is the eyeshadow and below it is the lip gloss pencil.

My January Birchbox is pretty awesome. I can see myself using the items from this box! I like the no-clump mascara and the idea behind the magnetic single eyeshadow is just awesome. Also, I’ve tried using the Oribe leave-in conditioner before and it worked well for me so I’m glad to see it in this box. The total retail value is about $38.41 – a really good value for a beauty box that only costs $10 a month!
