Birchbox: Beauty In A Box

Hey there lovebugs! 

Have you ever heard of Birchbox

It is a subscription that includes makeup, skincare, bath and body, haircare, fragrance and more, all based on the preferences you’ve set in your Beauty Profile. 

But are a few free samples actually worth $10 a month?

We’re about to find out cause I decided to give it a try. 

Just like any monthly subscription I had to fill out their questionnaire and I have to admit the idea of getting a little surprise each month was fun. I’ve had experienced it with Ipsy before and absolutely loved it!

Now back to our topic. 

I received my very first Birchbox along with a free box that contained samples as well. Not bad at all. 

Here’s what I’ve got: 

  • Real Chemistry Luminous 3-Min Peel 1.7oz value $48.00

  • Amika Un.Done Volume and Matte Texture Spray 5.3oz value $25.00

  • Dr. Lipp Miracle Balm 15ml value $16.50

  • Smashbox Cosmetics Photo Finish Radiance Primer 1oz value $39.00

  • Marcelle Ultimate Volume Nano Mascara 0.25oz value $15.00

Plus these freebies:  

  • Nelson J. Beverly Hills Forever Smooth Creme 

  • CoastalScents Blush and Bronzee Palette Sample

  • Liquid Blendercleanser Sample 

  • Balance Me Congested Skin Serum 

  • Wilma Schumann Skin Care Hydrating Collagen Eye Pads (1 Pair)  

  • Birchbox Eyelash Curler

Which sample was my favorite?

I couldn’t resist to fall in love with the Smashbox radiance primer. This product came in my September Ipsy glam bag and I had to try it out. It just gives you an instant magic-hour glow.

Ps: Makeup always looks better and lasts longer with primer. 

It is not a secret that Birchbox seems to lean more toward hair and skincare products, with a bit of makeup thrown in. So if you want to build your collection with a wide variety of products each month, you may want to subscribe. 

Xx, ♥️ Happy blogging & lots of love
