BIRCHBOX X HABITAT

15.3.15

On Thursday I attended BirchBox X Habitat's Event in London where they launch BirchBox's Collaboration with Habitat and showcasing this months Habitat X BirchBox as well as Habitiat's beautiful new Beauty Storage Collection featuring unique Beauty Storage Boxes and Cases to stunning New Dressing Table designs, #BringingBacktheDressingTable.



The Event was held at Habitat's stunning Kings Road, London store in Chelsea, where we were led by an adorable trail of BirchBox's to the Event location.


BirchBox aren't only collaborating with Habitat but with Benefit Cosmetics too!
Allowing you throughout March to select which of 3 Benefit Mascara's you want to sample in your BirchBox!

Choose from; They're Real, BADgal or the New Roller Lash.


The event was delightful.
Champagne flowing, the tastiest canapés I've ever had with some truly wonderful people to meet.
With 22 people attending with Beauty Bloggers, Lifestyle Bloggers and passionate BirchBox & Habitat employees, a truly wonderful set up with some lovely and inspiring people.


The event consisted of a meet and greet session initially for us all to chat and share tips and ideas with one another, also allowing us to mooch around the gorgeous new Habitat Beauty Storage and Dressing Table Collections as well as through BirchBox's amazing March Box and products. 


Followed by a stunning 3 course meals with amazing appetisers from pesto tomatoes, beetroot tart, couscous, chicken breast and chocolate tart for desert. 

An absolutely gorgeous set up,  and wonderful setting to meet such like minded people.




I was a huge fan of the amazing basil pesto pastry canapĂ©s, which were just to die for. 


Not to mention the stunning dressing tables in 3 times less designs from Habitat





The event was bar far the best I've attended yet and it was so nice and refreshing to meet new Bloggers too!

The lovely Millie from She Hearts the High Street, Natalie from The Fash Feed, Teri from The Lovely Drawer, June from Nostalgiecat and many, many others. 

We we're lucky enough to be gifted with a Habitat X BirchBox March Box with all 3 Benefit Marascara to try (which I'll review for you further on in the post, sharing my favourite!), as well as this stunning Storage Box from Habitat's New Beauty Storage Collection which is just perfect!




With a removable stacking top section with four sectioned quarters for you to separate your beauty products, tools or accessories. Revealing a bottom section for all your essentials to keep them neat and tidy in a gorgeous grey and orange box to brighten up any room. 

I now feel like I need the whole Habitat Beauty Storage Collection for my beauty products.




As for the Benefit Mascaras...

Well, I've sene that the New Roller Lash is being talked about everywhere so I was really keen to try it with high expectations, and heres what I thought. 


My favourite of the 3 has to be BADgal Lash.
With its thick, volumising brush you expect clumpy lashes however I find it the perfect mascara.

Thickening, Volumising, Lengthening and Defining!

It's definitely my choice for the No. 1 Benefit Mascara.


In second place has to be They're Real from Benefit.

With a really interesting brush with defining bristles and a good end of brush gadget of what I can only describe and precise bristles perfect for those tricky corner lashes, and getting the perfect bottom lash mascara look.

I actually love using this mascara over my BAGgal Benefit Mascara to get that perfect defined and separated look


Lastly, unfortunately I just didn't get the Roller Lash hype, and wasn't blown away..

I didn't find it any different to using a basic, drugstore mascara and didn't really see any benefits at all.
It's a pretty bottle and I love the packaging however, I don't think it works for me and my lashes.


Practical and pretty containers to keep you favourite beauty and pampering products that aren't anything like the unattractive perspex uglyness you'd possibly be swayed towards, and fabulous value for money as well as a great selection of designs too.

 I'm a huge fan of BirchBox's service, I love that they introduce you to products you wouldn't have tried or selected yourself and that they introduce you to new loves from fragrances, beauty and skincare.

My favourite thing about BirchBox is how easy and simple it is and delivered to your door monthly, it's really something to look forward to and get excited about!
