Birchbox April 2016 Review
Birchbox is $10.00/month and they send five sample beauty and skin care products, every month. Subscribers can now upgrade to a $30.00 box. The $30.00 box will contain 2 full size beauty or skin care products, along with the five usual products.
When you sign up, you fill out a profile, so Birchbox can customize your box to your preferences. There is a regular monthly box and they also have guest editor boxes. Birchbox releases spoilers and a full reveal of the guest editor boxes, so you will know which box to choose. I actually have two Birchbox subscriptions. This is the box for my newest account.
Here is the details about the Birchbox Point System
For every 100 points you earn, you get $10.00 to spend in the shop. There are lots of ways to earn points too!
1. Subscribe and use the code SUBSCRIBENOW50 to get 50 points ($5.00) to spend in the online store.
2. Review Your Products: You get 10 points for every sample review you complete. Each box contains 4-5 products, so that is around $5.00 in points you can earn monthly! This makes the box $5.00 a month. You can use this link to sign up.
3. Shop!: For every dollar you spend in the Birchbox Store, you earn 1 point for each dollar spent on full-size products in the Birchbox Shop.
4. Refer Your Friends: For every friend you refer to Birchbox, you will earn 50 points
Birchbox ships in a pink box.
The box design this month was a partnership with Rifle Paper Co! I know many subscribers were excited about this!
There was a welcome letter about the box and a coupon to save at Rifle Paper Co.
The back of the welcome card had the information card.
amika Touchable Hairspray $1.80 When I first saw this, I thought it was dry shampoo. I love that I received hairspray because it's always a product that is nice to have on hand. This has a nice hold and doesn't feel like it has glue on it.
Au Naturale Cosmetics Trio Set $1.00 This is a sample set of blush, eye shadow and lipstick. I love the cream lipstick and the shadow, but I don't love the blush.
Here are swatches of the samples. The shadow almost blends in my skin, so it's really hard to see.
Aquarevealâ„¢ Satin Bright Soft Water Peel for Face $8.70 You massage this into your skin, rinse and your skin will rid of impurities. I love cleansers, masks and scrubs, so this was one of my favorite items in the box.
Marcelle 3-in-1 Micellar Solution $3.50 This removes makeup and acts like a toner. It's made to also work for sensitive skin too. I was impressed with how well this works, and I will be buying more from Birchbox when this runs out.
Acure Organics Lip Lush $5.99 This gloss is full size in the color No Strings. This gloss is made with organic argan oil and echinacea stem cell.
Final Thought: This box had a total value of $20.99. I really enjoyed this box and I loved the face peel. Birchbox is one of my favorite beauty subscriptions. Subscribe and use the code SUBSCRIBENOW50 to get 50 points ($5.00) to spend in the online store.
