Birchbox April 2014

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a good Easter! Sorry I haven't updated in a few weeks, but I just started the Esthetics course at the Continental School of Beauty! I have a lot going on between school and work, but I'm going to try to at least put up my subscription box reviews for you all.
 Per usual, Birchbox came in first!!

April Birchbox

 

This month's theme is Rainy Days!

 

Birchbox gave us some tips for a rainy day!

 

Tip 37: Treat yourself to a facial, or give yourself an at-home-version, complete with steaming, exfoliation, mask, and serum.

 

 

You can pick up all 52 tips in the Birchbox Shop!

 

 

Birchbox came out with a new VIP Program called Birchbox Aces!

 

You can visit Birchbox.com/ace for more details.

 

 

Anastasia Beverly Clear Brow Gel

Deluxe Size (0.085 fl oz)-$6.68 Value!

It's been a while since I've used a brow gel, but I'm happy to try one by Anastasia! I may pair this with one of my eye brow pencils since I use wax when using brow powder.

 

Supergoop! Daily Corect CC Cream

Sample size (3 ml)-$ 2.03 Value!

I prefer the Coola Tinted Matte SPF 30 for Face I got last month to this product. I don't dislike this cc cream, but I wouldn't go out and buy it. The Coola product felt much nicer on the skin.

 

Color Club Gala's Gems Collection (Breakfast At....)

Deluxe Size (0.25 fl oz)-$3.25 Value!

This is a Birchbox Exclusive! Some Birchbox subscribers received another color from the collection-Gold Struck, Aquamarine Azulino, or Heirloom Pearls. I am most excited about this product because I am obsessed with nail polish and can never have enough! I am so happy to receive this shade from the collection because I absolutely love the color!!
 

Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 8% AHA Gel Exfoliant

Deluxe Size (1 fl oz)-$7.27 Value!

I was happy to receive this in my box because I love and trust Paula's Choice products. I've been using the Hydralight System, so I was excited to get another skincare product to try. While I prefer the feeling of  lotions to gels, this is an excellent product and good sample size.

 

Lifestyle Extra: Kind Healthy Grain Bars

Deluxe Size (1.2 oz)-$0.79 Value!

I enjoyed this healthy snack and would like to try other flavors. It was nice to be able to easily read the ingredients list and know what I'm putting in my body.

Cost: $10.00
Value: $20.02!

This was another great box from Birchbox! I was happy to receive some great products from a few of my favorite brands!

Birchbox: November 2013

Hey guys! My computer is still not fixed yet, so I'm a little late posting about my Birchbox. Hopefully, I'll have my computer back up and running soon, so I can post more regularly. But I'm excited to finally get to share with you what I received in this month's box! 

 

This month's theme is More Good!!

 

 

Ghirardelli Chocolate Bar (Toffee Crunch)

Full Size (3.32 oz)-Value $3.95!
 

This was their lifestyle extra, and one of my fav products in the box! I love Ghirardelli chocolate, so this was a nice treat! Now I can't wait to try other flavors!

 

Derma E Soothing Collection with Pycnogenol 67

Sample Size (0.36 oz)-Value $3.90
 

The much dreaded foil packets!! I wasn't thrilled to receive this, but I can always use it for travel purposes.

 

Mox Botanicals Bath Milk

Sample Size (0.35 oz)-Value $1.68

 

It was a nice change to see something like this in my box since I love taking baths. I tried this out first as the tea bag method, then later opened up the bag to empty out the contents in my bathwater. I wasn't impressed with this product, so I think I'll stick to my bubble bath and bath salt.

 

Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy Noir

Sample Size (0.05 fl oz)-Value $1.32

 

I was so excited to see this in my box! I was just telling my sister recently how I wanted to try this scent since I just purchased purse sprays of most of the other Juicy fragrances from work. I absolutely love Juicy Couture and would love to try more of their stuff!!
 

 

Chella Highlighter Pencil

Full Size-Value $18.00!
 

I am familiar with this brand since I received an eyebrow pencil from them in my Ipsy bag not too long ago. I really liked the brow pencil and wanted to try out other products from them. Some people received this in a previous Ipsy bag, but I had yet to get the chance to try it until now. So far am loving it-it glides on easily and highlights wonderfully! It's a great new addition to my eyebrow routine.

 

Color Club Cocktail Hour (Dark 'N Stormy)

Deluxe Size (0.25 fl oz)-Value $4.00!
 

I was happy to receive this in my box since I've always seen Color Club around, but have never tried it. I love dark polishes and this gunmetal was no exception-it's perfect for the holidays!

 

Total Paid: $10.00
Total Value: $32.85

I liked this Birchbox enough, but it doesn't compare to my Ipsy bag this month (Ipsy post to follow)!
