Hi friends! I am pleased to bring you our January Birchbox review! We had a choice between a few different boxes this month and I chose this Tone It Up + Birchbox collaboration box because I just LOVE those Tone It Up girls. When I was working on losing weight a few years ago, I […] Read more…

Glossybox: January 2015
The January Glossybox came about a week or so ago and I am just now getting around to writing about it, so my apologies. Glossybox has the prettiest packaging of any of the boxes I receive and I totally hoard these boxes. I have also started hoarding that crinkle paper that comes in boxes to […] Read more…
Birchbox Limited Edition Homesweet Homespun: Guest Blogger!
Last month, I was staring at the Birchbox Limited Edition Homesweet Homespun box ($40) and wanted it so badly. However, I was trying to be in the spirit of giving, so I decided to cash in some of my Birchbox points and gave it to my friend Jessica in hopes she would want to write a guest […] Read more…
Julep Maven: January 2015
Julep Maven is another box that both Jill and I pay for and enjoy each month so it’s time for another joint review! For those of you new to Julep Maven, for $25 a month you receive a box of a few nail polishes or beauty products. When you first join Maven, you take a […] Read more…
Allure Sample Society: January 2015
Hi friends! I received my January Allure Sample Society box and I am pretty pleased this month! Similar to other beauty subscription boxes, for $15 a month you receive 5-6 deluxe samples of beauty products. You also receive Allure’s “mini-mag” which is essentially a product card on steroids and the best one I’ve ever seen. After […] Read more…
Glossybox: December 2014
Hi, friends! Sorry for the lateness of the December 2014 Glossybox review but, you know. Holidays and whatnot. I’m still not totally sold on Glossybox but holy hell do they know how to package a box. Look at how cute this thing is! I mean, seriously. I love opening Glossybox packages. But will the contents […] Read more…
Walmart Beauty box: Winter 2014
I am loving the trend of the big superstores sending out seasonal Beauty Boxes. Unlike Target’s box, Walmart’s box is an actual subscription. For $5, they will send you a quarterly box of drugstore makeup/body/hair products. Can anyone say “Bargain?” There are a few different variations of this box but I am thrilled with the one I […] Read more…
Boxycharm: December 2014
Oh, Boxycharm. There is always something with Boxycharm that makes everything way more complicated than it needs to be. After I got married and my name changed, I methodically went through all my subscriptions and updated my credit card information on file with each so there would be no billing issues. Once I had updated […] Read more…
Birchbox: December 2014
It’s December Birchbox time! Birchbox is The Queen of subscription boxes as it was one of the first to take the market by storm. For $10/month you get a pretty box of fun makeup and skincare samples that are tailored to you by a quiz you take when you sign up. It was my only box for years […] Read more…
Ipsy: December 2014
My December Ipsy bag came today! For $10/month, ipsy sends a makeup bag with 5-6 samples, some high end, and some drugstore. They also usually have a very confusing theme that does not make sense seasonally or with the products they include, but hey, I guess they somewhat try. The card they include to tell […] Read more…
