    Have you gotten a box yet? Is it decent sized stuff? DO you think it's worth it?

    I just got my box. I will link you a photo. I thought it was fun getting stuff that I normally wouldnt buy. You fill out a online survey and they send you things that would work for your skin, etc.

    Here is what came in my Birch Box.

    On the size: you get a xlarge trial size. More than enough to try it out. My friend Kate (The Small Things Blog) got a totally different box than I did & she got a beauty blender (I want one!!) & I know she has gotten MAC before, and a bunch of cool stuff I can't pronounce.

    Did you have to put your name on the wait list? How long did it take?
    I'm a total sucker for this stuff.

    It took about a week or so after I got on the waiting list> The boxes ship around the 15th or so - you have plenty of time to snag one!

    I love that its a flat $10 - no extra shipping. And the box that it comes in? I love it too! Its a great box for reusing.

    Just make sure you do your profile when you get in. I forgot so I got a more generic box.

    See, I think I am going to love it as well. Ive only gotten one box, but I have seen what others are getting & love it! I really like getting a suprise each month - and Ive decided that on months where I dont like what I get, I will give it to my nieces to play/experiment with.

    Definately check it out! Its not a super huge package (i.e. my SC order!) but it is a nice little pick-me-up midmont. And for cheap, no less!

    Yep... I've been getting a birchbox for several months now. Some months are great and some months feel like a letdown. I also get the following:
    • myglam - similar - started by a youtuber I believe - you can see what you get beforehand
    • ecoemi - organic - each month is a mix of beauty/food/household
    • julep - nail polish
    • blissmobox - organic - gives you options to choose - beauty, food, household, etc.

    I'm actually thinking of cancelling my birchbox since I get so many others. And glossybox is coming to the us, although it still hasn't launched yet, but I'll probably sign up for that as soon as it opens.
