JULY HORROR BLOCK

Okey, so I'm a tad bit behind on my monthly boxes.  I have a few to post, but since I'm short on time I'll just do one tonight.  I have to say that my Horror Blocks are pretty much my favorite of all boxes I get.  I'm a weird little girl who's into all that's creepy and gore. I mean I cried at the end of Devil's Rejects. 
Anywho.... in this month box I got some good stuff.  Lets start with the t-shirts.  The month's shirt was American Werewolf in London.  They also threw in a bonus t-shirt to clear out some stock from their arcade and nerd blocks.  I lucked out and got one that I recognized, Donkey Kong.  People were posting a lot of shirts that I was completely clueless about.  The big item in the box is the Horror Block exclusive Titans bloody Spike figure from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I also got a Walking Dead window cling, Rue Morgue magazine and a season 1 Choose Their Kill dvd.  I guess its interactive and you get to chose how they die. Haven't watched that yet.  So not bad.  Pretty good box.
I'll probably go ahead and knock out my Julep and Rainbow Honey ones tomorrow. So if you're into nail polish keep an eye out for that.

July 2015 Rainbow Honey Bag

OK so this bag is a so-so with me.  Only because I'm not a fan of gold.  But the body spray and lip scrub, along with the green polish make up for it. 
The colors left to right are... summer tan,  calama and costa dorada.   Costa dorada is a top coat, or base coat if doing say a jelly sandwich.  There's a nice shimmer to the calama.  And of course summer tan is a chunky glitter.

The body splay is in Pomelo, a fresh citrus smelling scent.  The lip scrub is in sweet mandarin.  I've gotten lip scrubs from them before and really dig them. My lips feel so soft after. And of course I got an organic shea butter treatment.  They said it can be used anywhere on the skin or lips.
 
I've opted to receive the mini version of the bag, which the polish is comparable to the size of Julep's bottles.  There is also a reg. sized version of the products you can purchase instead.

 

July's 2015 Birchbox

Now to be honest I haven't used any of these yet.  I've just gotten back from a spur of the moment vacation and spent the whole week doing dr appointments and physical therapy on my ankle multiple times a week.  But I plan on trying them out soon.  If I don't post this now then I'll forget to.
I'm pretty happy with the products I got this month.  A nice variety of things I think.  Now we got to pick one of our products and I chose the Stila stay all day lipstick in the shade beso.  Holy shit are they not kidding.  I did a little swatch on my hand to check the color before running out the door and I basically walked around with a lipstick swatch on my hand for the rest of the day.  It even made it thru a couple hand washings.  Down side is that if you have an "oops" moment and mess up your lips, your skin is going to be stained.  Besides that, its a real nice red shade. Perfect pin up color.
I also got amika un.done texture spray, Jouer daily clarifying treatment oil,  Key West Aloe save a tan and Supergoop! daily correct CC cream SPF 35.
Jouer is the only thing that worries me.  I have super sensitive skin and oils tend to break me out. Even tho' this one says its suppose to prevent that.  I guess we'll see.  haha Next month I think I'm going to get the guest created box by Nicole Richie.  I got a sneak preview and it looked pretty good.

June 2015 Horror Block

Mailman dropped off my June Horror Block Box and I thought I'd share.  Tho' it's a little light this month, it's still pretty awesome.  The t-shirt is from the Purge.  Ghost Face figure since I guess they're doing a scream TV series? Honestly I was never impressed with the movies so I doubt I'll be watching the show.  The Aliens ice cube tray is pretty fun.  I have that in my freezer as I currently type this.  There were 2 versions of that you could of got.  Version 1 is the alien heads like I got.  Version 2 is the eggs that the face suckers come out of.  I think my cat has placed dibs on my stuffed Cthulhu.  And finally of course, the current Rue Morgue magazine.
If horror isn't your thing they also have a nerd block, comic block and arcade block as well as a Jr. girl and boy block for the little people in your life. Here's a link with more info.
