Pretty Polished: November Birchbox

Time for another Birchbox post!

Here's what's in my November Birchbox:

1. Joie Folle de Joie eau de parfum has citrus and a light woodsy floral, with hints of cognac. Its middle notes are jasmine and Damascenia rose. Finally, base notes are spicy woods and rich leather. This perfume smells wonderful and has great staying power!
2. Chella Highlighter Pencil this highlighting pencil comes in a really nice shade called Ivory Lace for lighter skin tones, and one called Latte for medium skin tones. I love multitasking products, especially highlighters, so I can't wait to use this and see how it works!
3. WEI Golden Root Purifying Mud Mask looks very interesting. It is a clarifying, purifying mud mask made from Chinese clay and golden root, both of which have been historically used to create smooth, beautiful, glowing skin with small pores. It comes in single-use containers, and is a bit pricey at $42 for 8 pods. I'm saving this for something special!
4. BeeKind Body Lotion is amazing! I have only used it a couple of times, but already I really like how quickly it absorbs and the delicious lemon verbena scent. It is free of many harsh chemicals and instead uses natural hydrators. Plus, the proceeds from the BeeKind line by Gilchrist and Soames goes to researching honey bees!
5. WEI Pomegranate Buffing Beads seem pretty cool. These are also single-use packets, which you mix with your cleanser to create a wonderful exfoliator and natural antiseptic.
6. Mighty Leaf Tea this package came with 3 tea bags- Vanilla Bean, Green Tea Tropical, and Organic African Nectar. I'm a big fan of tea, so I'm really excited to try these out!
