Fabulous Find Friday: Birchbox

Ok, ladies, if you love make up or any professional products, I'm about to rock your world!  Birchbox is one of my favorite little secrets!  Let me explain what it is...  Two Harvard grads realized that women (and now men) would probably buy professional products more often if they were able to "try before they buy"... Kind of like a test drive.  So, they built this company, Birchbox, that will send you a box full of deluxe size professional products for $10 a month, and you usually get 5-6 samples and sometimes bonuses.  Does that seem like a lot of money to you?  Well, think about, the times you have gone into Ulta or Sephora.  They always have samples close to the register of professional products.  How many of those samples are $5 or $10 each?!  Two months ago, I received a Stila liquid eye liner... I'm still using it today.  MOST of the samples are not 1-time uses.  Also, I haven't bought perfume in months.  My regular perfume ran out shortly before my first Birchbox, but I've been using the samples I've been receiving ever since.  It's a really great!!  I received my, I think, 4th box yesterday.  Check out everything that was inside (and please click on the picture!)!!

Yes, those are earbuds...
they were a bonus this month!

Now, let me get to the really cool part.  Birchbox really and truly wants your feedback on these products.  To make you more likely to give feedback, they will give 10 points for every item you give feedback.  10 points.... great, right?  YES!!  100 points = $10 that you can spend in their online store!!  Basically, they're paying you to provide feedback!  I haven't given feedback on the new items yet, but currently, I have 280 points.  When I get to 300 points, that's $30 towards a purchase!  Think about it... If their is a product you really love, you could get it FREE!!  

Anywho, that's my product pitch of the day.  If you decide to check out Birchbox, please follow the links I've strategically placed throughout this blog post.  For every person you refer, you get points!  So, please!  Help me get more points! :)

Oh, really important!!  When you go to sign up, it will only ask for your email address right now.  You've missed the Box for July; however, before their next box is available, they will send you an email and allow you to sign up and get your info!  YOU CAN CANCEL AT ANY TIME (but you won't).  ;)

Let me know if you have any questions!
