Birchbox X Meghan Markle

Summer is the perfect time for adventure, be that to far out places or to a weekend cottage trip with friends. At the end of the day though adveture really is a "state of mind" and Birchbox along with Meghan Markle of the TIG have captured that in this month's box.

I was excited when I heard that Meghan had collaborated with Birchbox. For those of you who are not familliar with Meghan Markle, she is one of the leading women on Bravo's Suits one of the most entertaining legal shows on tv. Meghan plays paralegal/Columbia law student Rachel Zane who has captured the heart of Mike Ross. Aside form her work as an actress on Suits, Meghan runs her highly successful lifestyle website The TIG.

The TIG is a hub for those with a discerning palate, a hunger for food, travel, fashion and beauty. It only made sense for Meghan to curate an adventire themed Birchbox, “I have long loved Birchbox, so to have a dedicated box of summertime beauty favs inspired by my lifestyle website, The TIG, is beyond exciting,” said Meghan. “I have beauty travel tips down to a science, and am thrilled to share my essentials with the Birchbox and TIG community. From hair care to skincare finds, this box has everything you need to be bright eyed and bushy tailed for all of your warm weather jaunts.”

When my box arrived I was excited to see what was in store for my "adventure". The beautiful box set the tone with the message of "Adventure is a state of mind", which is fitting for myself as due to my health I am unable to travel much so I take my adveture through the small escapes. Tucked away in the folds of the soft tissue paper were cards with inspiring messages to pursue life's adventures, big and small and to banish the word no. As well Meghan shared her top 3 travel tips but you'll need to get your own box to get those. I was giddy when I what the box had to offer, a wide array of luxurious beauty products in the perfect travel size that will make sure you look fresh and ready no matter how long the trip and or how little sleep you had.

In my box there was a Cynthia Rowley creamy lip stain, a long-wearing stain from the NYC based designer that offers unbeatable moisture and shine-and we all know how drying air conditioned environments can be so this was a God-sent. PARLOR by Jeff Chastain Moisturizing Sea Salt Spray for that perfect model hair that is forever on point in the warmer months. The dreamy Naobay Oxygenating Cream Moisturizer, perfect after a long flight to restore your glow with rich nourishing avocado and olive oils. Finally, a Skyn Iceland Hydro Cool Firming Eye Gels which if we are all honest with ourselves we can all use after an adventure of a night out as they get rid of those red puffy eyes and refreshes the stressed skin under the eyes. As an added bonus there was a chic hair tie form Emi Jay which is an on hand must to transform your 'do from down to up in a matter of seconds.

I was very impressed with the curated box from Birchbox with all of the luxury brands and previously unkown-to-me's that I have been introduced to I would highly recommend it for yourself or for any other beauty loving lady in your life. At only $10 for your first box(plus shipping and handling) it is a wonderful adventure awaiting in your mailbox.
