Just like last month, I have two BB boxes up for review. Luckily for me I got two different ones again. This month BB teamed up with Glamour Magazine to bring us the "5 Senses" boxes. If you want more in depth info, go to my first July BB post here. :) Let's get into Box 2!

In my July box:
*Ada Cosmetics Bronzer in Bronze Golden
*Gloss Moderne High-Gloss Masque
*Harvey Prince Hello
*Stila Lip Glaze in Camera
*Lärabar Über bar in Bananas Foster
*Birchbox Exclusive Earbuds

This box only contained 6 items with 2 of those being Lifestyle Extras. Not bad but also nothing too exciting. Let's go into what box 2 contained.

I recently started using bronzer on my face. I didn't really get what the point was since I am already brown/tan but little did I know that it makes a HUGE difference when I wear it. Not only dimension wise but it just gives me a glow. I have two fave bronzer brands right now: Pixi and Physicians Formula. So adding the Ada Cosmetics Bronzer in Bronze Golden to my makeup family was exciting. This is in loose powder, which turned me off a bit. I usually shy away from loose powder eye shadow because they intimidate me and so did this bronzer. Well, long story short, this will not be a part of my makeup arsenal. It is too shimmery for my liking. It looks a lot like an eyeshadow but does not look good as an eyeshadow. I will pass on this.

For my Gloss Moderne High-Gloss Masque review, please take a look at my BB Box 1 review here.

I am in loooove with Harvey Prince Hello. I got another HP scent in my BB Box 1 and I loved that one also. Hello makes me feel extremely happy and pretty. I can really smell the citrus notes but just subtly. I smell the sweet flowers the most with a hint of vanilla. It really is a nice fragrance and I will be purchasing the full size.

I adore Stila. I have been using Stila since Jr. High and it is still a staple in my makeup brand rotation. I am also a lip gloss junkie! But unforch I am not a Stila lip gloss fan. I received a Stila Lip Glaze in Camera from the It's Go Time Glaze Trio collection and I already knew I wouldn't like it. All my prior Stila glazes were thick, goopy and not a good look. I also am not a fan of this color. Its an extra glittery, gold red color that just is not for me. I'm sure a lot of girls would like this but this was a dud for me.

For my Lärabar Über bar and Birchbox Exclusive Earbuds reviews, go to my BB Box 1 post here.

Not the best box but also not the worst. I cannot wait to get my August boxes!

I give this box 2 out of 5 stars.
