My Morning Routine ~July 2016 Birchbox~

Is this my last month of Birchbox?? You'll have to keep reading for that, but I feel like I lucked out this month. There were quite a few unhappy people on Reddit, so I'm glad I'm not one of them.

Which is odd because I typically just throw the cleansers I get from BB in a box of stuff I use for the gym or travel, I mean I didn't even use the Acure cleanser yet, sorry Acure.
