That's Birchbox Baby!

Hey Everyone,


Today reviews are this month's Birchbox. Now the Birchbox is a box that comes every month for $10.00. Inside the box has samples from make up, hair care, skin care, and health. This month box comes with Archipelago a Pomegranate Body Soap, Clark's Botanicals a Smoothing Marine Cream, Juicy Couture a Fragrance, Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner, and Larabar a Mini Bar.



  

This is the box it comes in. Now it gets shipped every month on the 10th and it comes about for me at least in 3 days. It comes with a list of products card and it always in a pretty pink wrap. 



Archipelago Pomegranate Body Soap is a laced with pomegranate extracts and  smells real nice. It doesn't do much else for me other then smell nice. I've used it a few time but not very big on it. A nice soup but not one I would buy. Full size price is $12.50. Sorry to say I would prefer Dove then this. 
Clark's Botanicals Smoothing Marine Cream has Glycolic Acid to make dull skin feel smoother and fresh. I have tried this for a week and an half  and it was a there there for me. I have combo skin which is half oily and half dry, so for a little while it made my face feel a little smooth but it wasn't like OMG it was great kind of thing. As for pricing, for a full size its $115.00 so yeah I wouldn't be buying this.
Stila is a high name makeup brand and a very good one. The one I got was  a Navy Blue and let me tell you this one stopped my heart. I put it on and it stays on all day. It goes on smooth, it's creamy, and it's such a Beau-ti-ful color. I just put this on by itself and the color made the brown in my eyes pop. If you are tried of the same old black then this is the color for you and for a full size $20.00 I think I may buy this. 
I just put it on my hand and it would not come off. I love it !

Juicy Couture is a also a High name brand. The sample I got was the self named Juicy Couture. The smell is a floral  sexy smell, don't know how else to explain it. It makes me think of a rosy kind of smell and very strong too. I tried it a few times and had people tell me I smell really good. I'm loving this. For full size is about $69.00 - $89.00. This maybe a good buy for me. 
Larabar is a mini healthy bar. It has no artificial filler and the ingredients include: dried fruits, nuts, and other wholesome ingredients that are good for you. The one I got was chocolate chip brownie and let me say I was in love with it. It did not taste bad at all and tasted just like brownies. If you are trying to have a better eating habits I would say this would be a great snack before lunch and/or dinner.  Now no price was included however you can find it at your local Target, Walmart, and other super market stores.  I believe prices run from $7.00 to $9.00. I do plan on buying more of this.

So this is my review for this week, for more information on the products listed head on over to www.birchbox.com. You can subscribe for the monthly or yearly package and if that doesn't fit you can just pay the products without signing up. I do however say for 5 products samples, free shipping, and for $10.00 its a good bargain.

So thanks everyone for dropping by and supporting. Leave a comment if you have any question or if you just want to say hi.

Thanks until then...
