January Birchbox


This month I got my first BirchBox!!! How excited am I?! Very!


Do you not know what Birchbox is?
It's like a subscription to a magazine, except you get a box full of amazing, high end beauty products every month!!

This month's theme was Best Year Ever.


The first thing opened was Number 4 clarifying shampoo. This is something I have been needing for some time. I usually don't like to use clarifying shampoo often because it strips the nutrients my hair needs, but the Number 4 is gentle enough for everyday use and has a low-suds formula that removes buildup without stripping my hair of its essentials oils. And my hair smells ah-mazing too. 


 I opened Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy perfume. Its fragrance is a mixture between wild berries with mandarin and a floral scent.


Next was 100% Pure Nourishing Body Cream.
It smelled amazing and made my dried out skin feel silky smooth and moist. I love the fact that its 100% natural and vegan. :)


My favorite item came next. The ModelCo SHINE ultra lip gloss. This Australian brand gloss has just a hint of color that makes my lips shine. I love the built in mirror too for easy on the go application. 


Lastly, I pulled out the Caudalie Vinexpert Radiance Day Cream with SPF 15. I live in the South where the sun is always shinning and I need a good moisturizer with SPF. It has a patented grape-derived compound to reverse skin damage. Umm, yes please!



I am officially in love with Birchbox! Check them out to get your own :)

    1. Lisa, I loved it! It was smaller than I thought, but I seriously have enjoyed everything in it - the shampoo I am going to order in a bigger version because its incredible. I love the lipgloss too - its not sticky and smells amazing - and adds just a hint of color on top of my lipstick. I say go for it - it was so fun to get in the mail.

  3. Color me intrigued since they have a Men's section. I'll give it a try. Be nice to try a few things out and get a surprise in the mail every so often. It said something about referral bonuses, so I'll throw one your way if it gives me the option.

  5. Oh that looks like such a fun box!! Adam and I have just a few payments left on some student loans and once we are done paying them off I am singing up! I figure I'll have extra money to spend then :)
