I don't usually like the Birchbox drawer boxes but this month's design was too beautiful to refuse. The box was in a stunning white marble with rose gold details.
Plus the colour scheme went perfectly with my little #makeaflatahome feature in my bedroom!
Onto the products...
This month's selectable product was between two eyeshadows. Vanilla Frosting or Fifty Shades. Clearly inspired by the Fifty Shades of Grey franchise.
At first I used this as a full colour eye shadow but it's far too pigmented. However, this is gorgeous as a brow bone highlighter and inner corner. I will be using this all the time as I have almost finished my Naked Pallette one that I use all the time. This is so highly pigmented, I feel like it will last forever. It's shimmey, gorgeous and long lasting.
I've been a big fan of the Spectrum brushes since I was first introduced to them. They are now the only brushes I use on my eyes. They are so pretty, cheap and durable. Simply perfect!
I have terrible acne, especially at the moment while revising and stressing about exams so I was excited when I first saw this. Personally, I didn't see much difference but the product sample size was tiny and only last 3 days which was a big shame.
I don't wear mascara and I have so many samples but I've never found the one. However, when I put this on, my flatmate noticed a massive difference and said it looked really pretty. So it's a thumbs up from me!
Overall, I loved this month's products! They were all selected really well for me. I am defintely going to use them all! Plus, the eyeshadow is so pretty and pigmented. LOVE!

As most of you know, I'm a medical student at UCL and as such, I like to stay updated on new technology that is meant to help people control and manage their health.
Recently, a product called Oska Pulse has made remarkable progress in proving to reduce pain. What is it?
Oska Pulse is a wearable pain relief device intended to help individuals live an active pain-free lifestyle. It puts the power of optimized PEMF in the palm of your hand so you can enjoy a pain-free, active lifestyle and get back to the things you love most in life. It is safe, effective, small and portable. It can be used anywhere!
How does it work?
Oska Pulse mimics how the body naturally recovers. When cells are injured or have degenerated, they lose their electrical potential and are no longer able to exchange ions, causing inflammation and pain.
This device uses optimized PEMF to restore the electrical potential cells need to receive nutrients and oxygen, which stimulates cellular regeneration, relieving pain a…

I'm sure you probably won't see this but I just wanted to say thank you! Thank you for inspiring me and giving me so much more confidence in walking on the beach.
I started watching your channel back when you only had a couple of videos uploaded and I have watched every single one. I am constantly in awe of your positivity yet honesty in everyday, real life! Sometimes, YouTuber's try so hard to convey such a happy image but hide the real life downfalls of hurdles and difficulties.
Until this year, I have never ever wore a swimming costume or bikini out in public, uncovered. I always wore a cover up, a t-shirt or top over and I more so, I swam with a t-shirt. Plus I even went out of my way to change in the toilets.
I've just returned from a beautiful relaxing holiday on the island of Sal in Cape Verde. I've been walking on the beach and swimming in the pool. I've been sunbathing with actually skin on show! For once, I did it all without anything over …
