2nd May 2016 Birchbox Review

By Elisabeth @onecutedoc

I have two Birchbox accounts. I have signed up on two different emails. I love Birchbox! It is one of the oldest subscription boxes out there. The boxes are so cute and they come with awesome brands. I have discovered many favorite brands through this service. Every month they allow you to pick one of your samples or opt for the guest editor / featured box. This is the review of the regular Birchbox!

Cost: $10.00/month

Ships: To US, France, Canada, Spain, and the United Kingdom


FIRST IMPRESSION:

The box print is not bad! I couldn’t wait to dig in and see what all I received this month.


REVIEW OF ITEMS:

Amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo 

This is a sample size! I have tried this dry shampoo before and really like it. It’s not my ultimate favorite but it’s pretty good. I really love the scent and the gorgeous packaging.


Cargo Blush and Bronzer Duo

This is a nice size sample. I have a few of these already so I will be giving this one away. It is a pretty nice duo, but I hate the packaging. It is so hard to get your brush in each side.


MDSolarSciences Mineral Moisture Defense SPF for Body 

This is a small sample! This little sample will not cover my whole body. However, I will try it.


Real Chemistry Luminous 3-Minute Peel for Body

This is a sample size. I love the Real Chemistry peel for face and I am really excited to try the body peel. I can’t wait to test it!


Vita Liberata Fabulous Self Tanning Gradual Lotion 

This is a nice size sample. I love gradual self-tanners and I am excited to try this one. I have heard a lot of positive about Vita Liberata. I can’t wait to test this product.


OVERALL IMPRESSION:

I really loved this Birchbox!  It was such a great box.  I will use everything in this box. Birchbox is an awesome subscription at only $10/month. There were 5 products to review so that is essentially $5 to spend in the Birchbox shop. I love that Birchbox has an amazing point system. For every sample you review, you earn 10 points. Once you reach 100 points, you can redeem them for $10 to spend in the Birchbox shop. Therefore, this box was really only $5 if I review every product. I will continue subscribing to Birchbox. What did you receive in your Birchbox? What do you think of this month’s box? Let me know in the comments below!
