May 2013 Birchbox with Pics - Beauty Diaries

My Birchbox arrived yesterday!!  This is the soonest (9th of the month) that it's gotten to me as well as the fastest (came 4 days sooner than ETA).  Thank you Birchbox!  Here is my box:

Love that I have 5 items to review; makes it easier to get to my next $10 reward.  Upon first look, great size samples.

Info card and Pilot Pantone pen, which is one of the possible lifestyle extras this month.

Vitivia: contains 6 capsules for skincare
Lip Fusion Infatuation: .09g in La Lip Jolie
Cotz Face: SPF 40, blends into natural skintone 3.0g
Beauty Protector: no size (1oz?), Detangles, protects, leave-in conditioner, all-in-one, and 100% vegan

 The beauty Protector is the only thing I've tried so far.  IT has great reviews and is great for all hair types.  While I love the smell and how soft it made my hair feel, I don't know if it's worth the $21 it retails for, but hey!  That is what birchbox points are for.
