April Birch Box Review
Here's what was in my box:
Befine Skincare Sampler: 2 large packets of Rosemary Pomegranite Rice Mousturizer with SPF 15; and 3 large packs of Exfoliating Cleanser with brown sugar almonds and oats
Zoya nail polish from the True Spring collection :Bevin. It's a teal/gray. Very pretty.
LULU organics: lavender and clary sage hair powder. (doubt I'll use this)
Taylor Swift's perfume :Wonderstruck -smells alright, not my style normally.
And Yes To Blueberries : brightening facial towelettes. They are ok. I like the Olay brand better.
Im overall happy with my box. I'll use pretty much everything in the box, even if it is not my all time favorite products, they are all still good, and I like trying new things, which is the reason I get birch box to begin with!
What did you get in your box?
Re: April Birch Box Review
I got Dropps Laundry Detergent (cool idea, we'll see how it works.)
amika Nourishing hair mask (has argon oil, will use tonight probably)
Taylor's Wonderstruck perfume (it's just ok I guess...)
Zoya nail polish in Lotus (LOVE this, sparkly purple-gray)
and Juice Beauty oil free moisturizer. (meh...)
I got some argon oil hair serum last time. I like it. And I'm in love with the perfume from last month as well.
This is my first month trying out the Birch Box. I got Atelier cologne in orange sanguine scent; the scent is ok. I'm not a huge citrus fan, but it's alright. I also got the Befine skincare sampler, I haven't tried that out yet but it looks nice. Then I got Olle Biologique essential oils. It says it can go anywhere, I'm not sure I get this or if I'll use this or not. I also got Revolution Organics freedom glow beauty balm. Never heard of that, but I'll try it out. Then there's also 2 bags of Parisian green tea.
I'll take it but I hope I get better stuff next time. Maybe I need to change my profile, I would've liked the nail polish!

I got this box too, and am reasonably happy with it. I haven't tried the detergent yet, but didn't mind receiving it (two more loads I don't have to pay for) though it's an odd "bonus" item for a beauty subscription service. I tried the Amika hair mask yesterday and really like it. I may actually buy a full-sized container of this since I have quite a few points saved up. The nail polish is nice, though it's more grape and less grey on the nails. No opinion about the moisturizer yet.

I real liked this one! I got Pangea Organics Lip Balm, Pangea Organics Facial Scrub, Pangea Organics Eye Cream, Benta Berry G-1 Exfoliating Facial Cleanser, Wonderstruck sample and Weleda Pomegranate Firming Day Cream. I love the lip balm! I am slight obsessed with chapstick and this one has a great scent and is super moisturizing.
Has anyone bought a subscription as a gift? I want to get my friend a few for her birthday but do you still fill out the questionnaire? She has sensitive skin so I want to make sure I can specify that.
I got this stuff as well. I'm super happy. The Revolution beauty balm retails for $36 ALONE. Hard to be mad about that! I tried it today and I really like it. We'll see if it makes me break out or anything.
I got the exact same box! I'm wearing Bevin today, it's really beautiful. I would have loved that BB cream, though! I'm pretty happy with my box.
Today only birchbox is having 17% off its shop, code BBTAXDAY.
