Birchbox September 2013

Guess what?! It is already the middle of September... and you know what that means? BIRCHBOX!



I went to the mail to get my box and was so anxious to open it! So, I thought that I would post about it ASAP! Remember... this box only cost me $10 each month! I can already tell you that this box alone exceeds that value! So, without further adieu... here is what I got this month in my September 2013 Birchbox!


This months theme is Heritage.
As always, the first item in the box is a card that tells you what the theme is this month. On the back of the card, it lists all the items (and how to use them) that are in your box.

This months theme is "Heritage." I think that this theme works well for the fall and it is also Birchbox's 3 year anniversary... so it is doubly fitting.

The next item in my box is a coupon to use in the Birchbox Customer Favorites Shop. I get to take 30% off of anything in that particular store. Exciting!

Here is what the inside looks like! Getting excited!

My first TWO items in my box go together! They are the Beauty Protector Protect & Shampoo and the Beauty Protector Protect & Condition.They both smell really good... almost a fruity, creamy coconut, which is a nice change from my normal shampoo and conditioner.

Price Point:
Full size - $21.95 each
Sample value - $2.74 each


The next item in my box is the Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel Sensitive. I am SO excited to try out this item. It is a fruit derived facial peel and it is supposed to dissolve dead skin! How cool! It smells very sweet and its coolest feature is that it is made with certified organic ingredients.

Price Point:
Full size - $39.00
Sample value - $4.88



The item in my box I was most looking forward to, because of the Birchbox Sneak Peek Video was this Ruffian Nail Lacquer in Fox Hunt. I absolutely LOVE this color! There is something about bright, funky nail colors that get me super excited!

Price Point:
Full size - $10.00
Sample value - $10.00 (THAT'S RIGHT! We got a full-sized sample!)


This last sample in my box is a complete dud for me. Not only is it a foil packet, but it is something that I will probably never use. It is the Soak Rinse-Free Wash. Basically it can wash your clothing without rinsing it........ ??? Hmmm... I cannot say that I am excited about this at all.

Price Point:
Full size - $16.00
Sample value - $0.20


The final item in my box is another coupon for a free travel-size Caudalie Divine Oil with the purchase of any Caudalie product in the Birchbox shop. I probably will not use it... but it is cool to have in case I do!

So... final evaluation of this months Birchbox? I am sold! I think the nail lacquer alone did me in, but the shampoo and conditioner and the organic peel are going to be fun to try, too!

Final Price Point:
Amount Paid for Box - $10.00
Total Box Value - $20.56

WIN! The box definitely paid for itself this month!

  1. Hi Jennifer,
    I am such a box snob! I have received so many boxes, and have recently ended most, except Ispy. Which seems to be the best choice for me, due to the products. They seem to be more of what I would use or at least try. Some I can't even try! Although my Ipsy came messy this month, I am still happy with the shipments. I just received my last Glossy Box also, and I was happy this one was my last because it had items I'd use.

    Thanks for sharing your boxes!
