Birchbox sent me this cool leather key chain for being subscribed for a year. : D


Yay for May! Gossip Girl Birchbox is here. There were 4 different themes related to GG this month. Mine was Chic Sunday Brunch.
Here’s what’s inside:
Total value: $32.13
Not bad for only $10/month!
Jouer sent me a bunch of samples to try! They have amazing customer service. I’m already planning on buying a few of these products. The mini lip glosses are adorable. I have a full-size of the Lip Enhancer and I haven’t had chapped lips since I started using it. Thanks to Birchbox for introducing me to a great brand.
Beauty boxes seem to be popping up everywhere nowadays. For good reason too, I’m guessing! You pay $10 a month to get samples of beauty products that you’d probably never think to try unless it came packaged this way! Birchbox is one of the more popular ones, or at least the one you hear talked about the most through the beauty community. I’ve always been skeptical about signing up because you’d hear wishy washy things about the quality of the things that came in your box. Birchbox seems to be picking things up though and I’ve heard only positive things!I’ve been torn with getting a subscription just because I sort of spent a fortune at IMATS and was wondering if $10 was really worth spending. Today I got an e-mail from Birchbox announcing their May Birchbox which is going to be Gossip Girl themed. I remember hearing how much of a success the Teen Vogue Birchbox was and knew that if I were ever going to try out a box would have to be now!I’ve been really into Gossip Girl as of late (it’s on Netflix instant and I cannot stop watching it!) so this box almost seems like a sign that it’s time to subscribe to a beauty box!I’m not sure if the one I’ll be getting will be the Gossip Girl box though because my signing up was sort of strange. I e-mailed the customer service team and will hopefully hear back from them soon! Regardless I’m really looking forward to receiving my first Birchbox!Are any of you guys subscribed to a beauty box? Which ones are you faves? Are you looking forward to this Gossip Girl box as much as I am? :)
I get Birchbox. The value of my boxes has always been over $10. : )
Everyone subscribed to Birchbox will get a Gossip Girl box. The boxes will be varied though.
I’ve gotten full-size products in almost every box so far. If you want to see what others have received the forums at makeuptalk.com are great. Just search “Birchbox.”
Hope this helps!
So I finally received the email to join #birchbox … Just wondering if it’s #worth it …. Anyone subscribe to it? (Taken with instagram)
I do! I love it. It’s great if you actually want to try new products. Next months box is Gossip Girl themed. The forums on makeuptalk.com are good if you want to see what others have received in their boxes. (Just search for Birchbox) Hope this helps you! : )
