Build Your Own Birchbox August 2014
Remember, how I said that I won’t be getting another BYOB? Well, my willpower was seriously tested this month. Someone mentioned to me that this month’s BYOB selection includes Ruffian nail polish, and I just had to find out more.

Ruffian had me seriously tempted. If it was offered in more exiting color I probably would’ve cave and broke my vow of not buying unnecessary stuff for the time being. Don’t get me wrong I love understated and office appropriate nail colors, but Naked, just wasn’t as flattering for my skin tone as I hoped. It turned be peachy nude, not natural nude I expected, and I’m not sure how I feel about that. There rest of the selection was not very exiting to me. For the most part it included Items I already sampled and didn’t love enough to get a dupe, or samples I’m not really interested in at the moment. Just like the previous month, I wanted several things in skin care category and not much else (aside from unflattering Ruffian of course).
So, I’m still on the fence about August selection. However, I still have a couple of weeks to decide.
What do you thing about August BYOB? Would you get it? Which samples would you pick?
