August 2012 Birchbox - My Box

Its time for my August Birchbox!!  I know, I am one of the last people to receive the Birchbox each month.  I actually received my box on the 17th but I have been super busy with family visiting, Dr. appointments and all that fun stuff.

So anyway, HERES MY BIRCHBOX!!!!!!!!

1- Apothederm™, Stretch Mark Cream
This peptide-packed lotion fades stretch marks within weeks.


Ugh, Really???  I get Birchbox for FUN products, stretch mark creams are far from fun.  I only have a few stretch marks and they are on my boobs.  I once went to my plastic surgeon and asked him if he has anything to help with stretch marks, he told me that there is no such thing and if anyone comes up with that product that they will be bajillionaires.  So Im pretty skeptical about this product, but like all products I receive, I will try it out and do an amazing review :)

 Sample Size 0.7 oz $11.04
Full Size 5.7 oz $89.95

2- Jouer, Moisturizing Lip Gloss
A gorgeous gloss that conquers dryness and ho-hum style in a single, shimmery swoop.


I have really loved all Jouer products that I have tried so far.  I actually just asked them for a few samples from their website and they sent me some.  I am constantly putting on lip gloss, I love it!  I am super excited to try this out!  I received Birchbox Pink

Sample Size 0.06 fl oz. $5.71
Full Size 0.21 fl oz $20



3- Juicy Couture, Viva la Juicy La Fleur
This modern scent is a feminine blend of wild berries, mandarin, and water lily.



I think this smells really yummy!!  My husband actually put some on my wrist and said that he loves it! I love that the sample is a spray, those little tops are always so hard to get off of the little ones.  I think that it smells a lot like Bath & Body Works, Be Enchanted™ line.  Actually, it smells just like it.
I love the full size bottle, it is so cute!!


Sample Size .05 fl oz $1.40
Full Size 2.5 oz $70





4- SHU UEMURA Art of Hair, Full Shimmer Illuminating Shampoo
Made with musk rose oil, this luxe shampoo keeps color-treated hair shiny and vibrant.

Sample Size 15ml $2.40
Full Size 300ml $48

5- SHU UEMURA Art of Hair, Full Shimmer Illuminating Treatment
This rose-scented treatment replenishes color-treated strands.

I have loved all the SHU UEMURA products that I have tried so I am excited to try these out.  I do wish that it came with a conditioner but I guess a treatment is close to a conditioner, right?  I will definitely be trying these out and letting you all know what I think!  It says to use in place of a conditioner for thick hair and as a mask for fine hair.

Sample Size 15ml $5.10
Full Size 200ml $68

BIRCHBOX FINDS:
Schick, HYDRO Silk
I needed a new razor THANKS :)
It also included coupons on the back $4 off any Schick HYDRO Silk Refill and $.55 off any Skintimate Shave gel

Full Size $9.99


BOX TOTAL: $35.64

Overall Thoughts:
Its a pretty good box.  Gives me some new products to try!  I don't think that I would have bought anything in this box besides the Jouer Lip Gloss but I don't think I would have picked this color, so its fun to try new things!  I can't wait to review all these for everyone!!!

If you don't subscribe to Birchbox, you can here for only $10 a month!


I have an amazing giveaway coming soon so stay tuned.......

XOXO Tiffany

  1. Well that's cool! I've never heard of Birch Box before! Although I'm kind of crazy when it comes to "collecting" things I may or may not use. :) But trying out new products for a good price is worth it I suppose! I'm your newest follower! Thanks for stopping by!

    1. Its fun to try out products that you normally wouldn't have tried. I think this month is the probably the worst month that they have had since I have been with them, but I was one of the lucky ones and got a better box. Its not bad to try out for only $10. Usually the boxes are worth a lot more!
      Thanks for stopping by!

    1. Veronica, I emailed them and asked about the tinted moisturizer. The samples I had received in my box weren't the right color for me. They sent me two small samples of the tinted moisturizer, both a different color and then a moisturizing lip conditioner. I just emailed their customer service and they were sent to me a few days later.

      Thanks for stopping by!

    1. Laura, Have you tried Glossybox? They are a lot like Birchbox and they deliver to the UK. I think that the price is around $10. I don't get the US Glossybox because they have had some issues here with billing and delivery time but the boxes look amazing!!! There is also feelunique.com, latestinbeauty.com, boudoirprive.co.uk

      I hope some of those work out for you!!
