October Birchbox Review

October Birchbox Review

October's Birchbox was my first box. I snooped and saw a video for what things might be in the box and then about a week to five days before I got my box I saw what was actually in the box. I will say for my first box I will/did use everything in it.

{please ignore the bedding!}
 The box
 
The inside
 
Luna Lemon Zest Bar
{$18.75/ Pack of 18 or roughly $1.95 for 1 depending on where you get them.}
 
Illume Red Cedar Candle
{$10, full size}
  
 Kiehl's Rosa Arctica Eye Cream
{$46, full size}

 Jouer Lip Enhancer
{$14, full size}

Supergoop City Sunscreen
{$20-42, full size}

I am really thinking about getting the Supergoop Sunscreen. These samples have 4 uses in them. It leaves my face moisturized and not greasy. It's also very light for a sunscreen.

I tried the Kiehl's eye cream once but I will try this until it runs out. If it does what it says I will be buying some!

I didn't really care for the Lip Enhancer but I will still use it. Doesn't hurt that it was "free".

The Luna Bar was good but if I decide to get a box I will be trying a different flavor. 

The Illume candle wasn't my favorite when I initially burned it but I will burn it more seeing as the weather has finally gotten cold here and I love burning candles. I also really like that you can get it with an initial on the jar.

I would definitely say this box was worth the $10 I paid and I also got free points for giving feedback on the items. Along with that and referring some friends I am well on my way to my first free box!

I am looking forward to next month's box and Jen over at Ramblings of a Suburban Mom convinced me that the ipsy box was worth it so I'm signed up for that box too!

I don't know why I didn't see this before, but I am glad you liked it!!!! I'm kinda jealous you got the candle!
