Last week, I talked about how I won a makeup collection from Jouer via Birchbox (original post here). I loved the Blushing Beauty collection that I tried, but they also have another collection called the Little Black Dress. It contains two eyeshadows (pink champagne and licorice), mineral powder blush and moisturizing lip gloss-- a $68 value! Such a great palette- chic and timeless! That said, Birchbox is letting me give away a Little Black Dress by Jouer collection! Enter using the Read More
Beauty Box 5 {Review}
I just finished my Birchbox subscription and decided not to renew again. I will admit- I did find some fantastic brands that I use in my current makeup routine (i.e. Dr. Jardt BB Cream and 12 Benefits Hair Treatment) as a result of using Birchbox, but I decided to pass on a renewal this time around to see what else was out there. Another similar subscription service is Beauty Box 5. Like Birchbox, it is a subscription-based, beauty sampling program that delivers a box filled with 5 cosmetic Read More

We have finally hit the end of the week! It's been super busy at work, followed by another SUPER busy week next week leading to the kickoff of our next latest & greatest campaign on 6/21.

I’m a box lady. A Birchbox and Barkbox lady that is.
There are subscriptions for everything from beer-fruit-wine of the month boxes to monthly magazine subscriptions. The subscriptions I'm currently loving are the monthly boxes.

A little while back, I subscribed to Birchbox for myself and Barkbox for Izzy. It's so fun to get a little something in the mail each month, and Izzy and I LOVE Read More
