Birchbox Review + Coupon Code – January 2018

Disclosure: If you make a purchase through the links posted below, I may receive a small compensation. Read the full disclosure.

Birchbox offers 4-6 (sometimes more) hand-picked beauty and lifestyle samples, delivered to your door each month. I have been subscribing to Birchbox for over five years now and would say they are one of the most (maybe the most) well-known subscription boxes out there. They are certainly one of the longest lasting boxes.

Birchbox ships via USPS and all boxes generally ship by the 10th of the month.

This review is on the regular January 2018 Birchbox.  The January 2018 Curated Birchbox was also available in the shop.

My January 2018 Birchbox included the following items:

~ARROW BOOST Color Enhancing Lip Balm – Berry Busy (full-size) ($14): The formula of this balm adjusts to your lips’ pH to create a hue just for you.  It’s vegan, paraben-free, cruelty-free, and gluten-free. It’s very moisturizing and gives me just a little bit of color.

~Clark’s Botanicals Age Defying Radiance Cream ($35?):  I couldn’t find a size on this package (it looks to be about 0.5oz), but the full-size (1.7oz) is $119, so this a pretty pricey sample.  This is paraben-free, sulfate-free, packed with Vitamin C and is designed to brighten skin and even out tone.  The sample isn’t big enough to see a difference, but my skin certainly felt smoother after trying it.

~H2O+ Beauty Rapids Soothing Probiotic Bubble Mask (30mL) ($6): This was so fun to use!  You can feel the mask fizzing on your face, but in a neat way – not in a harsh burning way.  My skin felt amazing after I used it and I already want to pick up more of these.

~The Beauty Crop Espresso Yourself Eyeshadow Palette ($5.22): This trio includes three beautiful, neutral shades.  The pigmentation was solid, and this little palette will be nice for traveling or to toss in your bag quick touch-ups.

~Verb Hydrating Mask ($1.56): This smells fantastic, but I couldn’t see much (any) difference in my hair.  It felt (and looked) like it does after I use just my normal conditioner.

~Swatches:

All totaled I came up with a value of $61.78 for my January 2018 Birchbox.  That’s an outstanding value for Birchbox, and I am thrilled with this box!
