March Birchbox

Oh no! It's been over a month since my last post. I have something else in the works that I hope to put up here soon, but in the mean time, here's what I received in my March Birchbox:



1. Incoco, Nail Polish Appliqué. I was super excited to get this. I've always wanted to try these nail stickers from the drug store but never wanted to spend the money on them. I'll try these out when the weather gets warmer and let you know how it goes.

2. Evologie, Intensive Blemish Serum. I'll be using this tonight, if it works it will be worth it, if not, this was a rather boring addition to my box.

3. Whish, Shave Crave Shaving Cream. I'm the type of gal that's often just used soap and skipped shaving cream all together, so I wasn't very excited about this. If I try it and it's somehow amazing I'll write back to let you know.

4. twistband, headband. I've received the hair ties before but this is large enough to be a headband. It reminds me of lacrosse in high school when we would use pre-wrap to get our hair out of our faces. It might be useful for going running one day.

The box also came with a Madewell nail file. (Click here for a coupon worth $25 off a purchase of $75 or more at Madewell.)

This month marks my tenth month getting a Birchbox. As I continue to receive a box each month the samples are smaller and fewer. I used to get 4 real beauty samples and one lifestyle sample. This month I feel like I only received three true beauty samples. But for only $10 it will take a few more disappointments before I actually stop subscribing.

I'm enticed by the GLOSSYBOX that starts at $21/per month and includes higher quality samples. We'll see how long I can resist purchasing myself more nice things.




Recently I've been buying tulips to try to coax mother nature into finally giving us some warm weather. So far it hasn't been working that well, but I'm still enjoying the flowers anyway!

Thanks for reading,
