Each month, I get a birthday present. Not because I actually have a birthday every month (um, because no one has a birthday every month!), but because my Birchbox shipment comes and it feels like it’s my birthday.
What is a Birchbox, you ask? It’s a monthly treasure of 6 or 7 high-end samples shipped to you door for only $10/month. Birchbox describes their product as this on their website:
“Birchbox is the best way to discover new grooming, beauty and lifestyle products. Sample top products from high-end brands, get expert advice, buy new favorites and earn points with every purchase.”
My Birchbox this month included the following samples:
- SHU UEMURA Art of Hair Full Shimmer Illuminating Shampoo
- SHU UEMURA Art of Hair Full Shimmer Illuminating Treatment
- Juicy Couture Viva la Juicy La Fleur
- Jouer Moisturizing Lip Gloss
- Apothederm™ Stretch Mark Cream
- Schick Hydro Silk Razor
For August, Birchbox also teamed up with Pencils of Promise to raise money to build a school in Guatemala. For the month of August,15% of proceeds from sales in the Birchbox Shop go to Pencils of Promise.
I love my monthly Birchbox. I’ve received samples of products that I would never buy on my own, but they were so good I have purchased some full-sized products from the Birchbox Shop. Each person’s Birchbox may vary a little based on the information you complete in your profile once your account is set up. My box is customized for my hair and skin type.
