For my birthday, Aaron gave me a subscription to Birchbox. Every month I get a box with beauty products, like perfume, eye cream, lotion, lip gloss, you name it. They are just samples but a great way to try out new products for just $10.00 a month. If you are really impressed with the product you can buy a full sized version of the product through Birchbox for a discounted price with free shipping. Here is my review for my August Birchbox (only the second one I've gotten because June and July got lost when we moved, no worries they just credited our account)

| This is what comes in my mailbox each month. I first heard about this product from a blog called The Small Things Blog. Fantastic place and the Kate (the girl who writes it) lives in Raleigh, NC |
 |
| Hand Soap - still waiting to try it out. |
 |
| New Perfume - it is very flowery smelling. The last box I got had perfume in it too. I liked it so much I went and bought a full size bottle. Great way to try new things. |

A new razor. Who can go wrong with this?
|
 |
Cleanser - haven't used it yet on my face but it smells really good and felt good on my hands.
|
 |
Saving the best for last. NEW MASCARA. I'm always looking for a way to make my eyelashes fuller, longer, not clumpy, and easy to remove. This is all of that. It glides on very smoothly and comes off with soap and water. However after running, sweating, and rubbing my eyes (because a bug flew in it while I was running) there were no smudge marks and signs of it rubbing off.

I was so excited to get this in the mail. It is like Christmas every month! The great thing about this item is that not everyone gets the same thing. It all depends on your personal profile. Check them out by clicking
Birchbox.
