For the third month in a row, Birchbox featured a soft pink theme. It’s more of a spring look than summer but it’s still inviting. I was tickled pink when I lifted the lid. (Hey. I had to say it.)

I I decided to review the May and June Ipsy bags together. Ipsy is a monthly subscription service. For ten dollars a month, Ipsy sends five items and a makeup bag. The theme for May was Destination Chic. The makeup bag features statues and symbols from around the world. I have to say this is one…
