B’s March Birchbox Man box arrived today and let me tell you, he was super annoyed that I made him pause while opening it, so I could take pictures. He didn’t say he was annoyed, but I can tell.
Nothing different about the box this month. If I am not mistaken, next month (or maybe it’s May) is the first anniversary of Birchbox Man, so I am hoping they do something super fun!
The March Birchbox Man theme was about decisions and included items to help your make decisions and execute your plan. It appears that the plan this month is going to be drink perhaps while filling out your March Madness brackets? I think the items in the box will make for some good decision making since the majority are related to drinking. LOL. B does make his best decisions while half in the bag. I mean, that’s how he met me.
In case you care (and you probably don’t), B got box #4 this month and there were a total of 10 different box combinations. All of the bigger lifestyle items appeared to be the same.
Here’s what was inside:
~Birchbox Koozies ($4): I don’t love these, but I also never use bootle koozies (and neither does B), so that might have something to do with it? I might like them more and want to use one if it wasn’t like a fake wood design you know?
~Areaware Bottle Opener ($14): I have seen this in the Birchbox store and have hoped we would get one in a Birchbox. It turns out it’s our lucky day! I cannot wait to see this in action. It’s probably happening tonight. The magnet on the top is suppose to keep the caps from flying away and is also so you can attach it to the fridge in your man cave and never lose it. Genius.
~Birchbox Coasters ($12.50): I like these way better than the koozie, but I’ll be the first to admit, we don’t use coasters like we should. I can see B using these coasters while drinking some something he has bought from Caskers and smoking a cigar. It’s possible that this could all happen this weekend since midterms week is over!!!
~GO247 Texture Paste ($3 – totally a guess since it doesn’t have the sample size on it): I know that B is going to love trying this. His hair is so darn thick (and is out.of.control. right now since his hair girl canceled on him today) and needs some serious product to tame it. I’ve never heard of this brand before, which means totally nothing, but it could just end up being B’s new go too!
~TAUN Facial Repair Formula ($9.36): This cream is suppose to “prevent everything from crow’s feet and frown lines to dark spots and uneven skin tone—all without leaving any greasy residue” and kinda want to steal it for myself. But I won’t. I predict B asking me to buy more of this as soon as he uses this up. I better save my Birchbox points!
All totaled, this month’s Birchbox had a value of $42.86 (NOT including points for doing reviews and purchasing the box itself – which would bring the value up to $49.86), which was, as always, way more than the $20 price tag. We totally love Birchbox Man and B looks forward to receiving this box every month. I feel like the bottle opener alone made this box worth it. The rest was just the icing on the cake!

I was a bit miffed by the Koozies – and I’m obviously not the only one…
I enjoyed the coasters – however, I’m a bit worried about the BirchBox branded stuff that has been appearing – if they are quality items, it won’t bother me – but some subscription boxes start getting cheap when they put their own crap in the box.
I ordered a sample of the Taun from their website and I LOVE it. Noticed a difference after using it twice. Steal it for yourself! Now to decide if it is worth plunking down $80 on…
How do u know what box number your getting? Do they do this for women also because we just started the men’s and I have been getting the women’s for a while now and don’t know anything about what box number we have been getting.
They get their boxes so much earlier then us! Is is because they know how impatient men can be? Can you picture a man calling in “Yeah, I just got billed and wondering what day boxes are shipped???” Nope they have to make sure they get their boxes on the 1st of the month LOL
I really appreciate you doing a review on birchbox man! I’m still trying to decide on a subscription box for my hubby.
My man loves his birchbox, and I’m soooo jealous of his boxes! I want that stuff! He got the exact same yours did and was happy, but the bottle koozie and coasters were unnecessary.
Since I pay for it, I use his points to get stuff for me! Haha!
