Battle of the Boxes September 2013

Now that you have seen what I have received in my Birchbox and Ipsy Glambag for the month of September... who do you think deserves to win the battle? You might think that this is such an easy question to answer, but I assure you... it is tough! Check out the stats below!

Birchbox September 2013

Ipsy September 2013

Let's break it down now! *sang with attitude*

Here are some statistics that I kept track of for this month

 

If I had to go through each category and pick a winner, I suppose that I could, but I would not say that this necessarily dictates a clear winner! Each subscription service has it's own pros and cons.

Birchbox pros and cons: I love full-size nail color samples and facial peels, but I hate foil packets... especially when I will not use them at all!

Ipsy pros and cons: I love the creamy eye liner and volumizing mascara, but John Frieda is not a high end brand to me when it comes to hair care products.

Things that play into both of their favors for this month:

I received shampoo and conditioner from both Birchbox and Ipsy. Birchbox sent me more products that work for hair, skin and nails. Ipsy sent me more cosmetics.

I think this is one major reason it is difficult to claim a clear winner. Both of my subscription services seem to balance out so well for me! Maybe I was just lucky, maybe not. 

What do you think? Is there a clear winner in your eyes? How different were your subscriptions this month? Leave a comment below!
