My first Birchbox!

{via}


My friend Tara {Fabulous But Evil} recently posted about Birchbox (you should really read her post BTW). I had heard about it here and there, but hadn't seen much about it. So after reading her post I decided to try it out.

You sign up, pay $10 a month and you get some samples of different beauty and health products. From what I understand they will also surprise you with full sized products on occasion. Every month that you use the service you get 10 points that can go towards a full sized purchase.



Jouer Lipgloss in Birchbox pink, I put this on and immediately asked J if I looked like a whore due to it's electric hot pink shade. He said I looked more like a slutty sorority girl. WIN FOR ME. Some Juicy Couture perfume of the same name, I am good with this, I always like to carry a sample in my purse. I am really excited about the Zoya nail polish in Kristen. It's been in the 70's here in Houston so I am craving spring colors even though it is January, so this makes me happy. Some VMV Hypoallergenics eye serum, meh, I love the Bobbi Brown stuff I have, this will probably go to mi madre.

I also got a magnent and a Larabar, I didn't care for the larabar to much, The Toddler called it yucky, but Molly the dog really seemed to like it.

I would call this a pretty good haul if I do say so myself. I am going to keep up with Birchbox, it was fun getting this stuff and I also like to get things that aren't bills.


Don't forget to sign up for the awesome book swap that Heather and I are hosting!

  2. I still don't know whether or not to jump on this. I get so many darn samples through sephora... is it really worth it? I don't know if I can justify another beauty addiction....... ahahaha

  3. I got my January box yesterday and liked most of the stuff this month. Except the lara bar, yuck. Smelled and tasted awful.
