Birchbox Review + Coupon Code – January 2022

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


Birchbox is a monthly subscription of beauty samples tailored to your skin, hair, and style. As a Birchbox subscriber, you’ll receive a monthly box (it’s reusable and recyclable) filled with five expert-selected premium samples and easy-to-follow insider tips. If you fall in love with a sample, no worries – they sell the full size version in their shop.

Birchbox
Cost: $15/month
Ships To: United States.
Coupon Code: Subscription Box: See below.

Birchbox ships via USPS.  This box was inside an outer cardboard box.  I think that this box is (again) a leftover from a previous month.


Birchbox did have a curated box option this month and also allowed a sample choice selection.  I did not make a sample choice selection this month as none of the items really appealed to me. Based on the old boxes and nature of the samples we are receiving, I am still assuming that the new owners of Birchbox (FemTec) are trying to get rid of past inventory.  I am really hoping this doesn’t go on much longer and likely will not review my annual subscription.

My January 2022 Birchbox included the following items:

Number 4 Lumiere d’hiver Fluoro5 Elixer Restore & Repair Oil (0.5fl.oz) ($6.50):  You can apply this to damp or dry hair.  It gives you a great shine and doesn’t weigh down your hair.


Merci Handy Hand Sanitizer ($4): Is this exciting?  No.  Is it useful?  Yes, of course. I will toss it in my car and it’ll probably be gone in a few week.

ARROW Detangling Texture & Protect Spray: (30mL) ($7.20): This spray helps to easily comb through tangles, moisturize and smoothe hair, AND also provides heat protection when using hot tools.  I don’t use heat tools often, but tangles happen so this is nice to have.

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Dream Body Cream (0.68fl.oz) ($2.24): I love getting Glow Recipe in subscription boxes. It’s a whipped body cream and is smells so so good. It makes me want to put it on because it’s so good.

Oribe Gold Lust Transformative Masque: (0.5oz) ($6.60) and Oribe Run-Through Detangling Shampoo (7mL) ($1.37): The Oribe mask aims to reverse damage and rejuvenate tired and dry tresses. I used it with the shampoo and I felt like my hair was softer and smoother.

All totaled my January 2022 Birchbox had a value of approximately $28.  I liked this box, but I wasn’t excited by it.  I loved the items, but felt like it was too heavy on the hair side.

Did you get Birchbox this month?  What you’d get in your box and what’d you think?
