Yesterday was a CRAZY subscription box day around here and one of the many boxes I received was Birchbox! I have been loving my Birchboxes lately so I was totally looking forward to digging into this one.
I am still loving the new redesigned Birchbox boxes! And that new logo is growing on me. I wasn’t in love at first, but I am liking it more and more every time I see it.
Birchbox still does the box in the box method, which I would feel badly about if I didn’t recycle. I still actually feel badly about it, but what can I do? The inner boxes do make nice gift boxes.
Now you know I peeked at my Birchbox before it arrived, but it was so long ago that I kind of forgot what was going to be inside. I knew I was excited about it!
The July Birchbox was is decided to helping you take controls of any situation and to make the most of every minute – on the clock or off duty. And much like with the mens July Birchbox, the characters of SUITS were the inspiration for a few of this month’s picks! Here’s what my July Birchbox (I got box #3)(*) included:
~DDF Acne Control Treatment ($12.83): Mine skin has been quite nice lately (thanks to eating clean no doubt), but I know this will be needed during those special times if you know what I mean! For some reason I used to think that acne went away when you were older? So not the case. I’ve loved everything I’ve received from DDF, so this is a total score for me.
~Benefit Cosmetics It’s Potent! Eye Cream ($6.40): I love Benefit and I am still in search of a fabulous eye cream to solve all of my problems ;). I love that Birchbox sends Benefit and I have my fingers crossed I will get more down the road.
~Number 4 Super Comb Prep & Protect ($4): This leave-in conditioner safeguards color and also protects against UV rays. I realized that I never do anything to protect my color when I am out in the sun. Next time I dye my hair I am going to see if the color will last long using this spray. I’d start now but that might not be much of an experiment since I’m already mid-dye.
~theBlam cosmetics InStain Long-Wearing Powder Staining Blush (Swiss Dot) ($4.40): Although I have this already, I was totally hoping for another! I love this blush and it really does last all day. I’d recommend this in a second!
~Birchbox Bobby Pins ($1.67): I don’t wear bobby pins (like ever), but these are really cute and I think I might use these to pin back my bangs when they are driving me super crazy around the house. Since headbands have been giving me a headache, these could be a option!
All totaled my July Birchbox had a value of $29.30. Including the points I get for reviewing the products (which is equal to $5) and the points I got for purchasing the box (**) (which is equal to $1), the box had a real total of $35.30. I thought last month was the the best Birchbox I’d never gotten, but this one might be better???
