The first item is an Eyeko Fate Eye Stick in Old Gold. Old Gold is a metallic gold with olive undertones. Each one pairs dense, vibrant pigments with a retractable twist-up applicator. You can glide them on as a thick liner, or smudge them to create a shadow. I have never tried the Eyeko brand before, I know that their mascara is really popular in the UK. This color is ok, nothing super special. I haven't tried it on my eyes but swatched on my hand it's just ok.
The next item is Likewise Facial Moisturizer + Sun Protectant SPF 50 for Normal To Oily skin. This moisturizer with sunscreen is suppose to be great for break-out prone skin. It's fragrance free and contains zinc oxide to protect against the sun and azelaic acid that acts as a toner to balance and calm blemishes. I am excited to try out this product since I am prone to breakouts in the summer and I am always looking for a good moisturizer.
theBalm Cosmetics Staniac in Beauty Queen is the next product I received. The gel formula looks dark in the tube but delivers a sheer tint that is easily blendable onto the cheeks. Beauty Queen is a magenta-toned pink that provides a nice natural flush for most skin tones. This stain is water based, so it doesn't set quite as fast as other stains do. I have never been a fan of staining products but it will be fun to try one out.
The last product in my Birchbox is Comodynes Self Tanning Intensive Towelettes for face and body. I received two of the single-use towelettes. They promise to deliver a natural tan on the face and body that adjusts to your skin tone. The formula is paraban-free and supposed to be moisturizing as well. I haven't had a chance to try these out but every tan towel I have tried, I liked, so I hope this one will be a winner.
