Birchbox is a monthly subscription of beauty samples tailored to your skin, hair, and style. They recently increased the price of their box from $10/month to $15/month (current subscribers were grandfathered in at $13/month or $10/month for annual subscribers) and promise improvements to personalization, new products to choose from, more customization options for subscribers and faster shipping, among other things. April 2019 was the first month of the changes and I was anxious to get my box and see the changes for myself.

This review is on the August 2019 Birchbox. I opted to make a sample choice this month and did not opt for a curated box.
My August 2019 Birchbox included the following items:
~ModelCo LIP PLUMPER Hydra Lip Therapy (5mL) ($12.50): Love love love! This gives your lips a tingly feeling, but doesn’t have that sting to it like some lip plumpers do. It made my lips fuller and glossy.
~Living proof.® Perfect hair Day™ (PhD) 5-in-1 Styling Treatment (30mL) ($7): This pretty much does it all. It smooths, adds shine, protects against heat, safeguards your color and adds volume. Anything that helps with with both flyaways and gives my hair volume is a winner in my book.
~Juliette Has a Gun Vanilla Vibes Eau de Parfum (1.7mL) ($2.30): Juliette Has a Gun Vanilla Vibes has notes of sea salt, sandalwood, and tonka bean. It smells like a cookie and I am obsessed.
~amika Bushwick Beach No-Salt Wave Spray (30mL) ($5): So this is a “no-salt” spray. Interesting. I can’t say I love it as much as I love sea salt sprays, but it was fun to try. It smelled good, but my hair felt heavier than normal.
~[ comfort zone ] Essential Face Wash (0.50fl.oz) ($3.20): This did not wow me, but it did the job and I have no complaints about it. It didn’t dry out my skin and I am always a fan of a foaming cleanser.
~Pūrlisse Coconut Oil + Orange Blossom Silky Body Butter (1oz) ($4): Smells so good! It’s not going to be enough for my rough elbow (thanks to planking in barre class), but it’s ideal for my hands and legs.
All totaled I came up with a value of $34 for my August 2019 Birchbox. A solid box for sure!
