My December Birchbox finally arrived! This is my second box and I’m not as thrilled with it as I was with my first one. Here’s why….
First of all, it came later than the last one, which I can understand since it’s the holiday season, but I hope it doesn’t come this late from now on. I read that there were some issues this month that affected people getting their box on time but I wasn’t notified about any problems. Another thing I wasn’t crazy about was that one of the products (hair oil) had leaked all over everything else. At least it smells really good.
One final thing was that I wasn’t crazy about receiving an energy booster. I would’ve liked another beauty product instead.
Here are the contents of my box:
What’s in my December Birchbox
2. AHAVA Mineral Body Lotion
Full size – 8.5 oz. $24
This body lotion smells light and fresh and the sample size is pretty generous at 1.3 fl oz. I’ll be able to use it for awhile.
These are strips of double-sided tape that you use to make sure parts of your outfit stay in place. I’m not sure that I’ll actually need this but I like having these kinds of things on hand.
This came as a mini lip gloss sample in a shade made for Birchbox. It looks bright pink but when I tried it on I was able to apply a thin coat so that it looked more natural. It doesn’t feel too sticky either.
I definitely was not excited to receive this. It’s just not something I’m interested in trying but Mark said he would try it so I’ll have to see what he thinks.
Obviously I’m not in love with everything I got this month but that’s just the nature of these subsricption services. The point is to try new products to see if you like them. I still like Birchbox a lot and will continue my subsription.
Have you subscribed to any of the beauty sample subscription services? Are there any you want to try?
