WHAT IS BIRCHBOX?

Birchbox is an AWESOME gift that you receive in the mail each month for only $10 (includes shipping). These amazing boxes come
packaged in a pretty pink box filled with goodies wrapped in pink tissue paper and hand tied with ribbon. The box includes 4-5 high end
beauty products that can be purchased in full size through their website. Each box includes a card with a description of the products.
Once you receive your box and have reviewed the products, you simply log into your account and it already gives you direct access to your personalized items as well as other great products. When you sign up, you fill out a profile that ensures that you are receiving products
that cater to your specific needs. Even better, when you purchase products through the site, you earn points that are good for discounts
on later purchases. In my first Birchbox I received a full sized blush retailed at $29,50 among other great samples. I must say, I think
they just found their newest advocate for the company! :)


THE POINT SYSTEM
You can earn points for the following:
10 points = each product you review from your box (4-6 per month usually)
1 point = each dollar you spend on the website
50 points = each referral you make to the company
In essence, if you refer one friend a month and complete your reviews, it is as though your box is free!

February's Box

Hey guys!  I am so excited, I just received my February Birchbox!  For the first time EVER it has come as a total surprise to me.  I always know what will be in my box beforehand because I cannot help but peek at my profile.  I must say I am a bit disappointed that I did not get the Beauty Blender or the Dermalogica, but I did get a couple of things I wanted (and a couple I didn't).  Anyway, here goes:

Total value of my box: $18.26

  

HERE IS THE PACKAGING OF MY BOX


 

 

SHU UEMURA
Essence Absolue Nourishing Protective Oil
Value: $1.36




EYE ROCK
Designer Liner (4 pair)

* I changed my mind about wanting these when I saw how big they were.  I am a little disappointed.  Hopefully someone trades with me!


JUICE BEAUTY
Blemish Clearing Serum
Value $2.47


  

KIEHL'S
Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution

*Please note at time of blog the link is not working :(


I would write reviews on each of these products, but I only intend to keep the powdered mouthrinse, and I am saving those for vacation this summer :)  Any traders out there????

Not Exactly Thrilled with the Contents of Your Box?

That's ok!  I found an awesome forum where people trade products that they don't want for something they do.  I have done this twice and LOVE it!  I ended up with another Blinc mascara that I adore and (my favorite) another Stila Smudgestick to try in a different shade.  You can also trade non Birchbox products as well.

Check out the forum here.
