January Birchbox
Soooo my first Birchbox arrived this week!!! Yayyy! I was so excited to start this that I also signed up for MyGlam (first bag should come in February). Crazy right? I just love all this sampling!
Included:
- C.O. Bigelow, Lavender & Peppermint Shampoo
- C.O. Bigelow, Lavender & Peppermint Conditioner
- Jouer, Moisturizing Lip Gloss in Birchbox Pink
- Juicy Couture, Viva La Juicy
- Zoya, nail polish in Kristen
- Larabar, mini bar blueberry muffin
- Birchbox logo magnet
I had a chance to experiment with all these products on Tuesday night. I made it mini pampering session. First I tried the lip gloss, naturally, because I just love Jouer products. I was a little down about it’s small size but the pink color is so vivid it’s not something I would end up wearing everyday anyway. The C.O. Bigelow shampoo and conditioner is sooo nice and smells sooo heavenly. They were full travel sizes and doing some research online normally go for $4 a piece, pretty much pays for my box right there. Next was the Zoya nail polish, first time I have used this brand and had a great experience so far. Zoya is also a nail polish company known for being free of toxins. Last, I splashed myself with a little Viva La Juicy…mmm love.
The only thing I disliked about my box was the Larabar. Sorry but it just wasn’t for me. Overall this was a great opportunity to try a variety of things that I wouldn’t normally pick up. Let the countdown begin for February’s box!

beautiful nailpolish colour!
It was super rich and thick too! I could have gotten away with one coat.
I LOVE seeing what everyone gets in their birchbox! One of these days I’m going to have to just bite the bullet and sign up for my own!
You should! I can’t wait until my MyGlam bag comes, you might want to see how that is before you sign up.
Oh wow, the lip color looks less bright on! When I first saw it, I thought it might be a little too bright for me and was hoping I wouldn’t get it, but it looks beautiful and natural on you! I might have to try it out. I have the Zoya polish in Megan, and it looks so classy on.
