Hello, my friends! Today I’m going to write my first Birchbox review, if you don’t know what Birchbox is let me explain, Birchbox is an online monthly subscription service that sends its subscribers a box of four to five selected samples of makeup, or other beauty related products. This is their web page Birchbox, so every month Birchbox lets subscribers pick between a curated box or a single sample choice and be surprised by the rest of the items. This review is for the Sample Choice, $10 a month.
So each box comes with a card that has a brief of the month’s theme. The December’s theme is Shine On! it’s all about “brilliant and festive products plus treats for on-the-go touch ups”
The flip card shows every product detailed. And this box included a sheet of gift tags!
This month’s box also bring a cute small pocket mirror.
IPKN Flash Cream Radiant Primer/ Full -size, $28.
This nourishing SPF 15 primer creates a smooth, luminous canvas for makeup. The first thing I notice about this product when I tested was the shine that gives to your skin, and the smoothness that gives your face. I applied it on my face and then I massage it with my fingertips.
LOC One & Done Shadow Stick- Rock Steady/ Full- size, $10.
This is a creaseless, waterproof shadow stick, this is the first shadow stick that I tried and I think that it fits perfectly for me I really liked it the color stands out very pretty. I applied it from the inner corner to the outer corner lid, and then gently smudge it along the way.
This is how it looks on, I’m just wearing the eye shadow stick.
Organic Pharmacy Double Rose Rejuvenating Face Cream/ Full- size, $88.
This is face cream that promotes cell regeneration, soothes any skin type, (So it’s for every skin type!), reduces broken capillaries and makes skin radiant. The first thing you notice when you open the product it’s the smell of roses it smells fantastic, I haven’t had the time to catch any results for now just that my skin felt softer when I applied it.
And last but not least, Rene Furterer Lumicia Shampoo and Conditioner/ Shampoo full- size, $22/ Conditioner full- size, $24.
Shampoo – This shampoo uses active plant ingredients like Acerola extract to lift daily residue for a soft. glossy finish.
Conditioner- The conditioner neutralizes hard water buildup on your strands’ cuticles for a weightless finish, while it moisturizes and adds lots of shine.
These were the only two products that I really didn’t enjoy that much, the sample sizes were too small for hair samples and it didn’t let me time appreciate the results on my hair.
So this December Birchbox is valued in $172, if you love to try new products and love makeup and beauty products I really recommend this box to you, I’ m going to keep trying it out and giving you a monthly review on the boxes. Hope you enjoyed this review and thanks so much for reading.
Love,
Marina.
