"The September Issue" Birchbox September 2012: Box Opening!!!

It is Birchbox Box-Opening time once again folks! As you guys know, I absolutely look forward to the arrival of my monthly Birchbox!

How does Birchbox Work?
For those of you who are not familiar with the service, here is the scoop on the Birchbox monthly beauty sample subscription! Birchbox continues to be one of my very favorite beauty subscriptions!!! The samples (and the $10 price) are really great!
 
Birchbox is a monthly beauty sample subscription service. For $10 per month, you get a beautifully wrapped box full of 4-5 deluxe size (and the occasional full sized) luxury or boutique beauty products. It is a great way to discover new beauty brands and get out of a makeup/skincare/haircare rut! Plus, it feels as if you are unwrapping a little present! It is my monthly gift to myself and I just love it! I have subscribed for over a year and have just been so happy with the service and the items I have gotten in the boxes. Beyond the boxes being a great value, they are fun! I honestly have found some great new brands and some new favorite products through my Birchbox sample subscription.

Hey there readers!

Monthly/Quarterly sample box subscriptions sure seem to be the "thing" lately, or at least my thing lately! :) As ya'll know, I am a huge fan of Birchbox and New Beauty's Beauty Test Tubes. I mean, what beauty-lover doesn't love surprise boxes of beauty products delivered right to their doorstep! For me, these types of subscriptions are worth the cost just because it is a fun monthly treat! A present for yourself.
