Hi my honeys!! Todays blog post is going to be about my super cute Birchbox, it is only going to be a short post but I hope you enjoy it and are interested in this type of thing.
So this is my first Birchbox, I am not sure how long these have been going but I think it has been going a few months now. I ordered mine around the beginning of March, it says online that it takes 3 days to process through once ordered and 3 days to come in the post but I received mine a lot quicker than 6 days, which is really good. I obviously wouldn't have minded waiting but I was super excited to see what I was going to get!

This months box comes with a word search and if you finish it and post it on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook, you get entered into a competition for the chance to win a huge beauty prize worth £450!
Inside the box is a cute little bag with everything in, I love that you can easily use this bag for other things such as travelling or just putting it in your hand bag! Even the box is useful for jewellery etc.

You get 6 items in every box but I saw a coupon code on the website that read "get a 'BEST HAIR DAY' tangle teaser with this march box when you apply the coupon at the check out", which is a big bonus to receive something else free! I just had a look on the website and its now saying you can get a full size face mask with the code MASKTIME at the check out. Its called 'NUXE Masque Crème Fraîche® de Beauté', if anyone is interested in knowing what the mask is called.
I think its really good that you get to add something else for nothing, the box every month costs £10 and is £2.95 for postage.

In every Birchbox you get 3 full size products and 3 testers, I was super happy with the full size items I received, it was the 3 above in the pictures.
I mainly order the box for the super cute Spectrum tapered powder brush, and was panicking whether I was going to get it or not, haha! I know I can buy this separately for £7.99 but I might as well order this box to try these brushes out for less than £5 more!
- Spectrum Collections Taperered Powder Brush is used for applying setting powder, highlighter or bronzer. I haven't tried it yet but the brush is soft and feels very good quality, I've tried brushing it across my face and the tapered end is definitely good to use for any of them loose powders, I don't know what to use it for first!
- Arrow Boost Colour Enhancing Lip Balm | RRP £11
Smells gorgeous and tingles when applied to the lips, this product is cruelty-free and a vegan brand which is lovely! I've been using it a while, it is soft and comes out a shimmery pink which is nice for a glow.
- ModelCo More Brows | RRP £13
I love brow gels! It thickens, gives fuller brows and keeps them in shape especially if you have crap brows that move all the time like me haha.
This brow gel brush is really soft and gets all them gaps in-between that don't have hairs.

In the Birchbox booklets it tells you all the details of the products, I gave some information and my thoughts on the products above but I just thought id show you this to.
You can cancel this box after your first month order, but I am super excited to see what I get next month! You can get all sorts, even Benefit or The Balm make up. There is more but I am not sure what else they are using yet.
