The day has finally come. I got my first Birchbox. As soon as I saw my tracking info this morning and knew this little gem was in town, and would be delivered today I was stoked! Once I had that box in my hands I gathered my supplies; A knife and a camera. I cut my box open and dun dun dunnnnnn......I had received the wrong march Birchbox. The horror! You see, last month I was given a choice via an email from Birchbox between a Teen Vogue March box or a regular one. I opted for the Teen Vogue one and once I saw the blog posts start popping up about the Teen Vogue edition I knew I had made the right decision. Just a few of the goodies were: a full size Essie "luxe" nail polish, a full size Tarte lipsurgence lip tint and a twistband hair tie. :( I did contact Birchbox and hopefully I will get the box I realllyyyy want. I will update about that when I hear back from them. Anyways, once the initial shock wore off I was able to enjoy and appreciate my first box after all. So what did I get? Here we go....
Color Club Nail Lacquer in: Age of Aquarius
Harvey Prince: Yogini perfume sampler
Juice Beauty: Organic Blemish Clearing Cleanser
Lulu Organics: Lavender + Clary Sage Hair Powder
Stila: Smoky Eye Card
Tea Forte: Skin-Smart Teas
The nail polish is super cute and green, my favorite color! It's a retro 60's looking green. I already have it on.
The perfume sample is nice but honestly not really my style, but hey i'll keep it in my purse or car in case I am ever in the need of some smell good.
I really love the cleanser, I took my make up off with it just a few minutes ago and my face feels really clean and soft. I might actually buy that product in a full size.
The hair powder seems really cool. It's just like a dry shampoo and I think I will keep that one for emergencies too!
The Smoky Eye card is a one time use type thing and I actually have colors very similar to whats on the card, I do love Stila products though.
On to the teas, I got three in a pack and they come in "Cherry Marzipan" "Honey Yuzu" and " Cucumber Mint" They claim to repair and beautify your skin from the inside out. I just had the cherry one and me likey!
So to answer the question: Yay or Nay?
I definitely say a big fat YAY.
I think it's a great concept and what beauty loving girl would not love a pink box filled with goodies dropped off every month? Sign up and join in the fun! $10 a month get's you a box like above, every month.
I would like to take the last few lines of this blog post and dedicate them to my iPad. Time and time again I risk it's life by using it in the bathtub, like how I just used it to edit this blog while sitting in the tub. I love you iPad!
