BirchBox February 2016 & Coupon


I've been getting BirchBox for a few months now. It's small, but I like it. I'm not a beauty guru, so it's perfect for me to try new items. Their samples are a good sixe, and the range spans from skincare to haircare to makeup. The box is only $10 a month. Even cheaper if you use a coupon or order a year's worth upfront. You can't really go wrong with BirchBox.

Each month on the 25th, subscription customers have the option to customize their next box. You can choose from a couple different samples & the rest a surprise, or you can choose the curated box. This month when I went to chose everything said "sold out" so my box was a mystery.

BirchBox always comes with an info card that explains a bit about the items & the price should you wish to purchase the full-size after trying the sample.

This February box contains 5 items:
  • Color Club Mini Polish
  • Corioliss Argan Conditioning mask
  • Hey Honey Take it Off Exfoliating Honey Peel
  • Naobay HydraPlus Cream
  • POP Beauty Matte Velvet Lipstick
Let me start off my review by saying I'm reviewing the subscription box from an honest, normal consumer's opinion. I'm not reviewing the individual products in the box. I review the box so that you can decide if this is something you'd like to subscribe to. As for the products, if a product stands out, good or bad, I will make a separate review for that product/brand.

The first product is a mini nail polish. The color is "That's my Jam" from Color Club. The polish is vegan, 100% cruelty free, and made in the USA.

It's a deep red lacquer. I'm not a fan of reds, but it looks nice. I'll try it as an undercoat to silver foil. I do like mini bottles vs regular size, so that's cool.

Don't forget, you can go onto the BirchBox website after you've tried the products and review them. You earn points for each review & they add up quick!

The next items are an Argan Conditioning Mask from Corioliss. This is a hair mask. Also Hey Honey Take it Off Exfoliating Honey Peel off Mask.

The tube of Corioliss is 15ml. There are no parabans, no salts, and no sls. It contains argan oil, fatty acids, vitamin E, and tea tree oil to add softness & shine.

The peel off mask is supposed to brighten skin & promote a clear complexion with alpha hydroxy acids. The tube is 10ml and for all skin types. It says you leave this on for 15 minutes before peeling off.

Next is the POP Beauty Matte Velvet lipstick.... or as they say, Lipstix. The color is Cozy Crimson and full-size. As you see it's a deep red. I wont use this and will give it away to someone who will, so I didn't swatch it.

It's a high pigment formula that hydrates lips as well as tints. It's enriched with Vitamin E, paraban free, and not tested on animals.

The last item is Naobay's HydraPlus Cream.

This is a natural & organic product. Well, it's 99.47% natural, and 19.39% organic.

It's just over 1oz, so it's a good sized sample. It contains sage, olive oil, aloe, marshmallow & chamomile extracts. It lists itself as a facial moisturizer.

BirchBox also included an info card on Dew the Hoola bronzer, and a coupon code for a free gift with any $35 purchase from BirchBox.

BirchBox is a nice, inexpensive beauty box that allows you to try beauty products before spending vast amounts of money of full-size products. Many of their items are vegan, natural, and organic.

If you buy one Beauty box subscription, I'd seriously consider this one.
