Have you heard of Birchbox? To sum it up, you pay $10 per month and receive a little box delivered to your door. The box is loaded with beauty samples! You fill out a profile when you register, and they’ll send you items tailored to your needs.
I love me some beauty supplies! And to be honest, I hardly ever buy myself anything since having Lincoln. I decided I wanted to splurge a little on me!
This was my first Birchbox, so needless to say I was very excited when the little black and pink box arrived.
This month’s box was inspired by the show “Gossip Girl.” While I never seen the show, I was pretty excited!!
So, what did they pack into this little box, you ask? Here’s what was included in my Birchbox.
*Kerastase shampoo and conditioner for fine hair–I’m REALLY looking forward to trying this out. You see, prior to my thyroidectomy I used to have super thick hair that I cursed every day. Now… I have super fine hair. I hope this works some magic!
*Color Club nail polish–Get this. The shade is “Disco Nap.” LOVE. I really like this color and think it’s perfect for summer.
*Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm–It’s basically a moisturizer, sunscreen, and serum all in one. What’s not to love?
*Stila Waterproof Sparkle Liquid Eye Liner–Umm, holy heck this is a FULL SIZE eye liner that retails for $22!!! Did I mention this only cost me $10?! I hope I’m brave enough to test it out. It’s a sparkly blue color. I sorta wish it was in black, but maybe I’m just getting old. Regardless, great product, and I love Stila.
*Kerastase Cristalliste Lumiere Liquide–This stuff is pretty amazing. It’s specifically designed for longer hair. It’s a leave in treatment that adds high definition shine, and prevents split ends. To sum it up…long tousled waves. LOVE. I just wish it came in a bigger bottle because this stuff is going to go FAST.
*Birchbox Notecards–Hmm. Not gonna lie, this did nothing for me. It was one notecard and an envelope. Maybe it’s just me, but I dont’ see the “beauty” in that.
All in all, I was quite happy with my first Birchbox. Do you get Birchbox? If you do, I’d love to hear what goodies you received this month! If not, click here…you know you wanna!!
