BirchBox Fresh Start Special Edition Box

I had a coupon code plus $20 in Birchbox points, so I ordered the Birchbox Fresh Start box and it came in the mail today! This box was $40, but with the coupon code and Birchbox points, I paid $18.

The goodies:

-Bombas Ankle Socks: I always love a new pair of socks, and these are pink! Yay!!

-Fig + Yarrow Healing Salve: This is a balm that contains organic herbs and botanical essences. My dry, cracked cuticles are calling out for this.

-Ilia Lip Gloss: This is made from coconut oil and shea butter to add both luminosity and moisture to lips.

-Juice Beauty Green Apple Age Defy Hand Cream: While this is an anti-aging hand cream, and I don't necessarily need those type of ingredients yet, I love Juice Beauty and can't wait to try this out.

-Kor Water Aura Water Bottle: This is a 16oz BPA-free water bottle. I love collecting new water bottles, and this is also pink. Love it!

-Mullein & Sparrow Pink Himalayan Bath Salts: These are organic bath salts that you add to your water to help soothe sore muscles and joints. I think I will pass these along to my mom since she takes baths far more often than I do.

-Vapour Organic Beauty Aura Multi-Use Blush: This blush is made from organic and mineral ingredients. I have plenty of blushes for now, so I'll be trading this on eDivv.

-Yarok Feed Your Ends: This is a leave-in conditioner spray full of vitamins and minerals. We go through plenty of leave-in conditioner in my house, so this is great!

My thoughts: This is the second limited-edition box I've bought from Birchbox, and it was totally worth it. Even if I hadn't used point and a coupon code, I would have been happy with this purchase. I can't wait to use all of the products, and I especially love that many of them are pink!

Birchbox: Limited Edition-Home Sweet Homespun: November 2014

While I don't subscribe to Birchbox on a monthly basis, I couldn't resist a limited-edition Birchbox. They recently released 2 limited edition boxes, and this one was the least expensive of the two. I initially wanted this one as I spotted several products that I leither oved or knew would make great gifts. I paid $40 for this limited edition box. It shipped quickly, and I received it within one week of ordering it.

This box came inside of a nice box within an outer shipping box.I'm keeping this box to use during the holiday season.

My first look inside of the box:

The products:

-Momofuku Milk Bar Cornflake-Chocolate-Chip-Marshmallow Cookie Mix

-Soak Handmaid Luxury Hand Creme

-Makerskit Hanging Photo Clips Complete Project Kit

-Meri Meri The Little Garden Treat Kit

-Askinosie Chocolate Single Origin sipping Chocolate

-Cowshed Lippy Cow Natural Lip Blam

-Richer Poorer Socks

-Illume Mini Tin Soy Candle

This box is probably the most ON POINT box that I've received in a long time. Only the lip balm is going to end up on eDivv, and that's only because I've received enough lip balm in boxes lately to last me for 3 years. I've already worn the Richer Poorer socks and they were so cute and warm. I love them. I'm excited to make the photo clips projects; I'm always looking for an activity to get my creative juices flowing. I've seen quite a few Illume candles in boxes lately. They are super nice candles, but I don't burn candles. I haven't decided whether or not to gift or trade this one.  All of the other products are going to end up being super for gifting. Way to go, Birchbox. This limited edition box was worth every penny!!
