Birchbox February 2014

Hey everyone, my Birchbox was first to arrive as usual this month!
 

 

This month's theme is Step And Repeat!

 

 

February Birchbox

 

Ruby Wing Color Changing Nail Polish (Kitten Heels)

Deluxe Size (0.25 fl oz)-$5.00 Value!

 

This was my favorite item in the box! I was super excited to get this because I've never tried Ruby Wing or a color changing nail polish before. The polish is formulated with SolarActive Technology, causing the color to transition when exposed to UV rays outdoors. The concept is so cool and kind of reminds me of mood rings!

 

 

Beauty Protector Protect & Oil

Sample Size (Unknown)-Unknown Value

I love that they used a glass bottle instead of plastic-it makes this sample so much more luxurious! And it smells wonderful-I can't wait to try it out! However, this sample didn't include any measurements on the bottle, so I inquired the information from Birchbox. I have yet to receive a response, so the size and value of this sample remains unknown for the time being. As soon as I find out I'll update the information.

 

Juicy Couture Couture La La Malibu

Sample Size (0.05 fl oz)-$1.44 Value!

 

I am a huge Juicy Couture fanatic, so I was psyched to receive this sample! I saw it advertised in one of my magazines and have since wanted to try it! I really like it and may even prefer it to the original Couture La La!!

 

 

Dr. Brandt Pores No More Pore Refiner

Deluxe Size (0.25 fl oz)-$11.25 Value!

I don't really have an issue with large pores, but I'm down with a product that can keep skin matte. I also like the packaging and feel it's a decent sample size. However I'm disappointed because according to the Cosmetics Cop this product contains skin cell–damaging lavender oil!

 

Lifestyle Extra: 32 Oral Care Effervescent Breath Crystals with IsoVoxy

Sample Size (2 Packets)-$1.33 Value!

I'm intrigued with this lifestyle extra since I've never used a product like this before. It's an interesting alternative to Chocolate or Tea and it's nice that they included two different flavors!
 

Total Paid: $10.00
Total Value: $19.02!
(Not including Beauty Protector Sample)

 Overall, I thought this was a pretty good box. I'll get use out of 4 of the 5 items and most of them are brands I've never tried before.

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)!
