In the recent past I subscribed to Birchbox for several months but I canceled my subscription. I was not impressed with what I was receiving and did not think the box was worth $10.00 a month.
Since starting and writing reviews for my blog I decided to give Birchbox another chance by signing up one last time.
Price: $10.00 per month
What is Birchbox?: It is a monthly subscription box that sends several samples and randomly (rarely) includes full size items. The women’s subscription includes everything from skincare to makeup, as well as fun non-beauty extras. The men’s subscription delivers top-tier grooming products in addition to lifestyle accessories ranging from hip socks to tech accessories.

The box and packaging are cute and I love the inside of the lid.
2 Harney and Sons Tea Sachets

I was sent the Pomegranate Oolang and the Caribe flavored single silken sachet.
The Pomegranate is made with Ti Quan Yin Oolong and infused with pomegranate.
The Caribe is a fusion of green and black teas which is infused with guava, coconut and strawberry accented with marigolds and cornflowers.
I LOVE TEA and I can not wait to try these!! Both teas smells amazing! YUM!
Marcelle New Age 8 in 1 Power Serum
Retail Price: $34.00
Website: http://www.birchbox.com/shop/marcelle-power-serum
I have not really used any face serums so I am quite curious about this product. I like that you can use it daily and it appears to be suitable for use in the morning. It helps smooth, fill and reduce lines and wrinkles. The serum helps firm, lift, and strengthen, while working to boost radiance and improve the texture of your complexion. It is Paraben and Fragrance FREE!
Pixi Shea Butter Lip Balm in Pixi Pink
Retail Price: $8.00
Website: http://www.pixibeauty.com
This one of the BEST EVER smelling lip balms that I have used. It not only smells good but fully hydrates your lips with an amazing pop of color. Love this and can't wait to try more PIXI products!
Coola Environmental Repair Plus Radical Recovery After Sun Lotion
Retail Price: $32.00
Website: http://www.coolasuncare.com/environmental-repair-plus/Radical-Recovery-After-Sun-Lotion
I have fairly pale skin so I am always looking for sun lotions I can stick in my purse or beach bag! I love that this is a after sun lotion rather than just a sunscreen! Another great fact about this company is they are CRUELTY FREE!! Can't wait to try it out!
This after sun lotion has agave, aloe Vera, lavender oil, rosemary extract and sunflower oil. It is meant to repair, renew and moisturize your skin. It smells fantastic and does not feel greasy at all!
Nexxus Color Assure Pre-Wash Primer, Shampoo and Conditioner
Retail Prices:
- Color Assure Pre-Wash Primer $18.99
- Color Assure Shampoo $11.29
- Color Assure Conditoner $16.49
Website: http://m.nexxus.com
These small size samples would be great for travel. I have not used Nexxus products before but I have wanted to. I am constantly dying my hair ( I am aware that's not good but what can you do when your hair is dyed red). I love it's a complete system and sulfate free! Smells wonderful as well!
Birchbox Diamond Snap Tray
I love the colors of the tray but honestly it's not what I was expecting and not something I will really use.
This was a free gift for signing up again.
Overall you get a lot of tiny one use samples and maybe one full size item. I do not believe I will be continuing my subscription because I still feel it's not worth the $10.00 per month compared to IPSY who gives deluxe and full size items for $10.00 per month.
Sorry Birchbox but our love affair has come to an end!!
