Birchbox is a beauty sampling company that sends their customers 4-5 deluxe samples from Lancome to NARS in the mail every month for $10\/month. It&#8217;s perfect for those beauty junkie&#8217;s like me who love to try new products. I&#8217;ve always been a product lover, and with my experience in the beauty industry, I&#8217;ve learned a thing or two about ingredients, trends and packaging.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The brand is super girly, with their pink logo and &#8220;girlfriend to girlfriend&#8221; brand personality. The monthly box comes with a card that details the products as well as a note from the team. You also don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s in the box, so it gives you that element of surprise and anticipation. They have their own company blog which just added a girl named Ingrid, a vlogger (youtube video blogger) who talks about her box every month.<\/p>\n<p>I love the whole package. You can rack points depending on how much you spend on full size products that lead to discounts freebie&#8217;s in the future. The more this company grows, the more it will become an ecommerce site with sampling being the goodie bag.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d strongly recommend giving Birchbox a shot. For $10\/month it&#8217;s not going to break the bank, and it gives you that experience of trying new products and being the trendsetter in your own beauty world.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m a sucker for a good marketing story, a new fragrance or a new undiscovered ingredient, so I&#8217;m perfect for this kind of thing. I&#8217;ve attached some pictures of my Birchbox for the month of December.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Can&#8217;t wait until next month!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.birchbox.com\/\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.birchbox.com\/\">http:\/\/www.birchbox.com\/<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.birchbox.com\/\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.birchbox.com\/\">http:\/\/blog.birchbox.com\/<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.birchbox.com\/post\/13829824360\/meet-our-new-contributing-editor-miss-glamorazzi\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.birchbox.com\/post\/13829824360\/meet-our-new-contributing-editor-miss-glamorazzi\">http:\/\/blog.birchbox.com\/post\/13829824360\/meet-our-new-contributing-editor-miss-glamorazzi<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BIRCHBOX!\u00a0 I wish I would&#8217;ve come up with this idea myself, but I&#8217;m glad somebody did.
