Drugstore Haul // January 2013 Birchbox

Last Friday I went on a little drugstore adventure trying to find the Wet N Wild Fergie Collection. I failed, but in the meantime I got a few other really great products. 

Revlon Colorstay Whipped Foundation: Up until now I have been a complete high end only foundation snob. For whatever reason I was researching some drugstore foundations. I watched a lot of positive reviews and demo's of the colorstay whipped so I picked it up - full review to come soon.
 

I happened to watch a D/S haul video before I left to go shopping and the video featured these Maybelline Colorsensational Vivid lipsticks. I was also in search for the Maybelline Whispers, but the display I found was whipped out. I purchased 895 On Fire Red and 870 Shocking Coral. 

Finally, I picked up a bronzer. I'm not much of a bronzer girl but I heard that the Revlon Colorstay Whipped can pull a little grey, but that it's easily fixed with powder and bronzer. I purchased Physicians Formula's Glow-Boosting Season-to-Season Bronzer. I got this particular one because it was the lightest one. There is shimmer in it but it is not overpowering. 



When I returned home from the drugstore, my first Birchbox for 2013 was in the mail.
It came with:
2 100% pure body creams
the eyeko skinny felt tip liquid liner
Ojon argon oil
an Arie Shimmer perfume
and Embryolisse Laire-Creme Concentrate

 
I love that 2 of these products (the Laite-Creme and the Eyeko liner) are items I would not normally be able to purchase in the US.

Do you subscribe to any beauty boxes? Which ones?
