Box contents:

Tarte – Rainforest of the Sea Mermaid Skin Hyaluronic H2O Serum

Seafolly – Bronte Sunglasses in Blush – Retail Value $99

Summer isn’t complete without a fun, new pair of sunnies! Subscribers were given the option of blush or blue for these sunglasses. I went with blush and am very happy with my choice!

This style is quirky and so different from the classic aviators I usually wear. However, I love them! I wore them on the 4th of July this year and received a ton of compliments. I’ll definitely be taking these cuties on my annual summer beach trip coming up next month.

POPSUGAR Must Have Summer 2019 Review - Pink Bows & Twinkle Toes

Tofino – The Mathea Towel – Retail Value $64.99

This is another item that POPSUGAR let subscribers choose the pattern of this month. I chose polka dots (my favorite) over the tribal print option.

The tassels on this beach towel are what sets it apart! How cute is that detail?! I’ll definitely be packing this towel for my annual beach trip as well!

Julep – Creme-to-Powder Eyeshadow Stick in Champagne Shimmer – Retail Value $18

If you’re a longtime reader, then you know that Julep was my first foray into subscription boxes. I subscribed for years and loved each product I received, including their eye shadow sticks. I received this eye shadow stick and a few others several years back and loved them then just like I do now.

Champagne shimmer shadows are my everyday go-to, so I’ve been getting tons of use out of this eye shadow stick over the last few weeks and will continue to do so until it’s all gone!

Brooklyn Hat Co. – Palm Fiber Safari Hat – Retail Value $55

I’m not usually a hat wearer but this hat has tempted me! I’ll be packing it for my annual beach vacation as well, so we’ll have to see how it like it after taking it for a spin on and around the beach!

If all else fails, it makes for very cute wall decor! Don’t you think?

Tarte – Rainforest of the Sea Mermaid Skin Hyaluronic H2O Serum – Retail Value $42

Another thing you’ll know if you’ve been reading for a while is that I love Tarte products! I use quite a few in my everyday beauty routine and have tried tons more over the years after receiving them in various subscription boxes.

I’ve been using this serum several times a week for the last few weeks and have not noticed a difference in my skin. My skin has not been breaking out (which is fantastic!), so I will continue to use the serum for a bit longer to see if I notice a difference.

Hint – Sunscreen and Sunstick – Retail Value $17.99 and $9.99

A summer subscription box isn’t complete without sunscreen! I’m not complaining though. This fair-skinned girl appreciates any and all sunscreen that she can get her hands on!

Hint’s pineapple scented sunscreen did not disappoint! It smells INCREDIBLE and works well too! Along with pineapple, their line also has a grapefruit scent, which intrigues me quite a bit. I hate eating grapefruit, but I love them smell!

Along with a lot of the other products above, I’ll be taking this sunscreen on my upcoming beach trip as well!

Candy Club – Lemonade Straws – Retail Value $8.50

Lemonade candy? YUM! I love sour straws, so I was extremely excited when I found these in my box. I finished the container a little bit before writing this post, which is a little sad, so I may just have to look into a candy subscription with Candy Club. How fun would that be?!

Nair – Leg Mask – Special Extra

It’s been years since I’ve used Nair instead of shaving my legs. I gave this product a try on my calves the other night and was pleasantly surprised by the outcome. After ten minutes, my calves were mostly hair free.

This leg mask works well, but I used almost the whole bottle just on my calves. I’m not sure how much larger the full-size version is, but I imagine I wouldn’t be able to get more than two or three full uses out of it.

For convenience sake, I think I’ll stick to shaving. After all, it only takes a few minutes to shave my legs as opposed to 10 minutes waiting for Nair to work.
