Unboxing ~ Birchbox ~ June 2017 | Oribe, Smashbox, Mellow, Wilma Schumann...
One of the nice things about Birchbox is that everyone gets something
different in their box. I liked what I got this month, but next month I’ll be
getting the curated box, so it may be a bit more interesting.
Here’s what was in the June box:
Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer
Mellow Liquid Lip Paint in Tehran
Wilma Schumann Hydrating Collagen Eye Pads
Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation
My subscriptions:
Sephora Play box
Allure Beauty Box

Unboxing ~ Birchbox ~ April 2017 || very little editing, so what you see is what you get
Welcome back to my channel. I’m finally home from my trip to Florida. This video was recorded just before I left and was produced and published on my last day there. So, I resubscribed to Birchbox, partly because they were offering a free Smashbox mini palette. Since publishing this video, I see there are quite a few other people who resubscribed for the same reason – LOL. I’m not sure how long I will stay with them. This was one of my first subscriptions and I have always enjoyed them, and I discovered quite a few products while subscribing. I guess we’ll wait and see what’s in store in the next box.
Here are the products in my April box:
Malin + Goetz Grapefruit Face
Cleanser – deluxe sample size: 0.5 oz
Davines Love Smoothing Shampoo – travel size : 2.5 oz
Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Cream – deluxe sample size: 0.17 oz
Number 4 Jour d'automne Sugar Texturizing Spray – travel size: 1 oz
The Beauty Crop #GRLPWR Liquid Lipstick – ?full size
Bonus sample packet - Davines LOVE Smoothing Conditioner - For Coarse
or Frizzy Hair

Double unboxing ~ Birchbox ~ very impressed
Welcome back to my channel. I went for a subscribe deal where you and
get one box free with Birchbox and they have just about won me over… almost. I
still have way too much stuff – that and money are the only things that are
holding me back on this one. There were both very nice boxes and I was really
impressed.
Here what was in these two boxes – they are in a running list below:
Supergoop CC Cream – 3 ml – oh no, this is labeled as medium dark, so
I’ll be using it to tint moisturizer

Beauty boxes I subscribe to:
Lip Monthly – only have January & February left, then will cancel
GoodBeing Box – I have this one through February, then might cancel
BeautyFix – $24.95 + tax, this is the box that made the cut and I'll be subscribing to this long-term
Allure Beauty Box - I keep this on hold and reactivate when I see something cool in the spoilers

Unboxing ~ my LAST Birchbox ~ December 2015
Welcome back to my channel as I unbox my last, yes my last Birchbox.
This is the December box. I didn’t unsubscribe because I don’t like the box (I’ve
been a long-time subscriber); I unsubscribed because I was getting too many
boxes and am now happily down to 3 boxes. I will definitely miss Birchbox… but
I’ll still shop in the Birchbox shop.

Beauty boxes I subscribe to - I unsubscribed from a several which leaves me with the three I decided to keep - plus Julep, which will be cancelled after the January box:
Boxycharm - my favorite box
Kloverbox - eco friendly and cruelty free, a bit expensive
Julep - too expensive for the sizes of nail polish you get - may unsubscribe next month

Mini Haul ~ Bio-Oil, Smashbox, John Frieda, Skinn ~ Birchbox, HauteLook, Sam's
Welcome to my channel. Here is a haul from Sam’s Club (like COSCO),
HauteLook, and Birchbox shop. I have a few other things due to come in. The
Bio-Oil was a life saver when my skin was dried out and actually felt sore. I
still use the Murad cleanser that caused it, but am a little more careful with
its use and always follow it up with my alcohol free Thayer’s witch hazel toner
and a light application of Bio-Oil. Let’s just say, the Murad cleanser is a bit
of a super deep clean face wash, which is sometimes really good to use.
*Everything purchased was research and found to be cruelty free.
Bio-Oil is no longer cruelty free because they just started selling in China - crap - this will be hard to give up, but now that they aren't cruelty free, when this is used up it will not be repurchased.

Unboxing ~ Birchbox & Beauty Blender ~ October 2015 ~ Acure, Amika, Dr. Jart+, EXO Supply, W3LL People
Welcome to my channel. I happily resubscribed to Bichbox and was really pleased to get the October box (I expected to wait until November). Anyway, I’m really pleased to say that 4 out of the 5 products in my box are cruelty free. I have placed captions throughout the video regarding cruelty free status. Thanks for watching!

Unboxing ~ Birchbox July 2015 (maybe my last) & Current Inc. cards, stickers, and organizer
This is a combo unboxing video – neither was long enough to stand
alone, so I did both at once. I had a lot of technical difficulties, clearly. I
start with my unboxing of some beautiful stationery supplies from Current Inc.
Most of the stickers will go in my planner.
Then I unboxed my Birchbox for July 2015. This may be my last box. It’s
a great subscription box if you want to try some new things without the
commitment of buying a full size product, but that is also its downfall. Some
samples are extremely small, most are deluxe sample sizes. I have been a
Birchbox subscriber for over a year and have all the samples I need. Plus, I
now get 6 subscription boxes, so something has got to go.
Here’s what was in this box:
Juara Radiance Enzyme Scrub ~ 0.27 ounces
Oribe Apres Beach Wave and Shine Spray ~ 1 ounce
Supergoop Anti-Aging City Sunscreen SPF 30 (my favorite sample) ~ 10 ml
Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick ~ 0.05 ounces
theBalm Balm Desert Bronzer/Blush ~ 8 g/net weight 0.08 ounces ~ about
the size of an eye shadow

Unboxing ~ Special Edition Birchbox ~ Beauty Solutions March 2015 #Birchbox
This box is not the regular Birchbox – it was a choice offered as a substitution for the regular monthly box. At no extra cost to me, I was able to choose this Beauty Solutions box, a box loaded with tried and true products. I jumped on it when I saw the Laura Geller blush on the monthly picks video that Birchbox puts out well in advance of choice day (the one day you can choose an alternate product or box).

Here’s what was in my box:
- Dear Clark Volumizing Hair Tonic – full size (6 oz) = $26, sample size 1 oz
- Derma E evenly radiant Brightening Day Crème SPF 15 – full size (2 oz) = $27.95, sample size 0.5 oz
- Laura Geller Beauty Baked Blush-n-Brighten – full size (.32 oz) = $27.50, sample size 0.06 oz
- Supergoop Advanced SPF 37 Anti-Aging Eye Cream – full size (0.5 oz/15 ml) = $45, sample size 2 ml – not enough to really test the product out
