Birchbox | December 2012

I signed up for Birchbox for the second time in November. I canceled before because I needed to save money plus there was a glitch or something in their billing system and I was being charged twice every month. Every month I would call or email them and explain what was happening and they would refund the extra charge. They were always really nice about it but it became a hassle every month. Well, I decided to give them another try. I never received my November box due to Hurricane Sandy (which is completely understandable I am not complaining) which they were super nice and gave me a $10 credit to their online shop since my account was still charged for a box. The December box included the following items:

• Juicy Couture - Juicy Couture fragrance
• theBalm cosmetics Hot Mama Shadow & Blush All-in-One
• Chuao Chocolatier ChocoPod Maple Bacon flavor
• Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Repair CC Cream
• Nick Chavez Beverly Hills Advanced Volume Shampoo with Expansion Technology 

I would have never thought to give them a second chance if they did not have such great customer service. 

Birchbox

Yesterday I received my first Birchbox. If you don’t already know, Birchbox is a beauty sample subscription. You get one box a month and it has 4-5 samples each time. The samples are a “deluxe” size. You pay $10 a month. You do not get to choose your samples so it is a surprise each time. I can’t remember whose blog I saw it on but I decided to try it for myself. I like it so far. (No one paid me to say this. These are my own opinions.)



They wrap everything up so it’s like you are getting a present! I love presents!

When I got home from work today I did 75 crunches and the Tone It Up Saved By the Bell Workout.My legs felt the burn!

For dinner I made a bowl of oatmeal and loaded it with pumpkin, peanut butter and pumpkin spice. It was delish! A year ago you couldn’t get me to eat any type of oatmeal unless it had dinosaurs or gummy bears in it…



This weekend I am going to Mobile! I can’t wait! There is something about Mobile that I just love.
