birchbox samples

How many samples do they send out each month and what is the quality like? Can you give an example of what's been sent to you?

In your experience, is it worth it?

Thanks!

Re: birchbox samples

I found it to be hit or miss. Some months, the samples were a very generous size of products I really liked. Other months, the sizes were measly and stuff I wasn't interested in. I got a tube of cleavage cream one month. I don't remember how many were in each box.

Overall, though, I did think it was pretty good for the money. I quit because I was getting samples faster than I was using them (I'm a product hoarder ) but I may join again.

ETA- found my first box review on here. I complained about the hand sanitizer, but I recall that I used it and really like it. LINK

I get full size Stilla cosmetic; so far I've received a eye liner, mascara, and my new favorite lip gloss. BB creams, Purfume samples, facial moisturizers, and nail polishes.

I really haven't been disappointed yet. It is what it is for $10 a month!

Re: birchbox samples

For $10, it sounds totally worth it if you're receiving deluxe samples of some pretty awesome cosmetics like you said. I have read reviews and seen complaints on their fb page that some people receive some great stuff, while others just receive foil packets and perfume samples (stuff they can get free at any makeup or perfume counter)... or hair ties and luna bars The points system seems fun.

Any other reviews would be great, thanks!

Re: birchbox samples

There's a bunch of videos on YouTube showing the products- this month seemed to be more of a miss but I've seen people get way more than $10 worth of stuff out of it. I think the overall idea is to expose you to new things though
