June Birchbox Review

Image
After waiting what seemed like forever, my June Birchbox finally arrived.  Although, I had already peeked when my items were revealed on the 10th of the month, I still always get excited to receive it!   If you aren't familiar with Birchbox, it's a monthly beauty subscription box where you received 4-6 sample items based on the profile information you fill out when you sign up.  It's only $10 a month and if you sign up now, you can use the code SUBSCRIBENOW50 to receive 50 points when you sign up ($5 to spend in the Birchbox shop).  So if you haven't done it already, please use my referral link to sign up!

May 2015 Birchbox Review

Image
I'll go ahead and admit I became a horrible blogger (my last post was in October....).  However, in my defense, I've had A LOT going on the last several months.  Let's just say that graduating law school, taking the bar, finding a job, finding a place to live, and basically all of my income going straight to student loans has been quite the adjustment.  I'll spare you all from the details and get to the real point of the first of many more posts to come as I get back into my regular blogging routine! Apparently, it's been a year since I subscribed to Birchbox !  I didn't even realize it until I received the Anniversary Key Chain from them.  So I thought, what better way to revive my blog than to write about my second May Birchbox ! This month, there was the option for a curated box by Emily Schuman of Cupcakes and Cashmere .  However, I didn't opt for the curated box because I like to have somewhat of a surprise :)  The May Box is supposed ...
