@Suzame123 I have the Clarisonic Mia as well! I wish I got it in the lavender color but I stuck to the plain white one to be more "grown up." haha! xx
Hey if you don't like Birchbox, you should try myglam bag. This looked like a great birchbox box this time around, however. I actually prefer short box videos...I really hate the ones that go on for nine-ten minutes.
@ValentineLissar Thanks for the rec... MyGlam is the one with Michelle Phan behind it right? Will definately check it out- I wonder if they have better products inside. And yeah, depending on what the topic is about, I prefer short 4-5 minute videos. I mean, like HOW LONG can you talk about Birchbox? People want to know the 5 things you got and X out. haha xx
@jesksa Yep yep. I can't stand when people spend 3 minutes talking about their day before they open the bag and then they try to read all the information on the card. To me, that's a waste of time. But, yeah, click on any of the myglam videos for dec or january and check out what they have. They definitely have a larger emphasis on make up (2-3 items vs. 1-2 items from birchbox). They also generally have 1 drugstore brand and the rest are higher end companies.
@ValentineLissar I might get so much hate, but I'm not a fan of Michelle Phan. :\ hah I have high hopes for Birchbox because I think they've gotten A LOT of criticism these past few months for their boxes, I'm confident they're working their butts off to get good brand partners, etc. But yeah, shorter videos are the way to go - I mean, I usually just click ahead anyways. Sorry for cheating!
@jesksa I don't know about Birchbox improving since they seem to take a holistic view of beauty which means usually something for your hair, your skin, a makeup item, and a scent. For me, I'd prefer to have more makeup items instead of an endless supply of lotions, face creams, and hair oils. By the way, it's fine if you're not a fan of Michelle. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. However, may I ask why you don't like her?
@ValentineLissar I think you're right about Birchbox actually. I think I'm more down for makeup and skincare. And regarding Michelle Phan, I don't know... there's just something about her that "rubs" me the wrong way. I mean, I totally watch her videos and am subscribe to her, but she's not my cup of tea and I don't like her overly produced videos. I'm sure I'm the only one!
We got the same exact box! Thats so funny I was excited to use checks and balances with my clarisonic too and it's awesome! Love the peacock eyeliner too! ;)
@AngieLovie08 Thanks for the feedback! Figured people were more interested in just finding out what products I received in my box so I kept it very short and sweet. I'm sure no one wants to watch a 9 minutes video. hah Happy Friday! xx
@jesksa This is my 3rd box with Birchbox and the first two was "blah"... the first was terrible lol so I'm def glad that I got a good box this month. My box number is Box #12.
@pacificamin Yeah, I didn't even bother making a Birchbox last month because I was one of the people who received it like 3 weeks late. Though, it was nice to get $10 worth of points as sorry! I'm thinking that the Birchbox team is on top of their game now... I was a little bit disappointed a few months. Though, I still HATE receiving perfume samples.
@jesksa I also got the archipelago pomegranate soap, juicy couture perfume sample, origins checks and balance face wash and the Larabar in blueberry muffin
@pacificamin So cool! Just went Sephora.com to see what color that is. It's always better getting neutrals in my opinion! :) Was the rest of your box entirely the same as mine? xx
