Cara Box {April}

This post is about a week late (whoops) but I finally have a minute to sit down and write it.

I got my Cara Box this month from Laura over at My Life South of the Mason Dixon and loved her sweet gifts. This past months theme was going green and man was it a genius idea. My hubby and I have been doing clean eating for about a month and so this came at the perfect time.

Laura sent a reusable fruit/veggie bag which is wonderful - I go weekly to the farmers market so this will be perfect to carry my healthy items in.

She also sent "green" notebooks to use - I always carry a notepad in my purse and I was about to go get a new one (again, perfect timing!)

I received a cilantro growing kit and Zinnia seeds for my backyard garden.

I got really excited over the J.R. Watkins all natural hand soap. I have had this soap at a friends house once and loved it and wanted it since then - and now I finally have it! Its fresh smelling and leaves my hands super soft. 

Thanks again Laura for my adorable April Cara Box!!!

April Birchbox

I have to admit, I was eager for my April Birchbox. I have been in desperate need of something fun in the mail to cheer me up. 

This month did not disappoint! 

This month's theme was tiny tweaks, big results! There was a card that came along about tiny tweaks - weekly face masks, night eye cream, 5 minutes in the sunshine - all can make a difference in how you look and feel. Sounds good to me!

The first item was the Atelier Orange Sanguine Cologne. It has a fresh tropical scent with blood orange, jasmine and geranium. I think this is my favorite scent that I have been sent yet from Birchbox. 

The next item was the Mirenesse glossy kiss lipstick. Its a thicker lip pencil that can be used on both lips and cheek. I love the color and can't wait to wear it out!

There was the Ojon total hair therapy that combats dullness and frizz - two things I need a lot of help with for my hair! 

I am blessed with fair and youthful skin so anti-aging cream typically doesn't do much for me, but I did like the Supergoop! anit-aging eye cream. It protects against the sun with its oat peptide complex to help firm the skin. 

The Last items were the Kusmi Tea Paris wellness essentials. I love tea so any kind makes me a happy girl. I  tried the Detox one this morning and LOVED its flavor. I will definitely be ordering some more of this stuff!

There was also a special bonus included this month for a subscription to Women's Health for $9.99. 

Happy Wednesday:)
