Birchbox points order!

Birchbox Points Order!

I really try to save up my points but I usually find something I want to get at a time when they are offering a great free item with purchase.  This time it was a Toni & Guy set that made me spend my points.

My daughter really loves the Beauty Protector line you can get through Birchbox so I picked up this cute little set for her Birthday this week.  It is the Jet Set kit and comes with hand cream, body cleanser, shampoo and conditioner, and a leave in conditioner.  She absconded with my leave in conditioner the first time I got it in a Birchbox and has been asking me for a refill for awhile.  This set is $22.

 I have been looking at these Pinch Minimergency kits for awhile also and picked one up as well.  These are $16 and contain 17 items.  This is perfect for your purse - it is small and contains essential items.  I think this would be perfect for a bride to have on hand for the wedding and honeymoon. 

The Toni & Guy set included a bag, gloss serum, and a texturing spray.  I am crazy about this bag.  It is so pretty.  I love the size of the texturing spray and I will use all of it.  This was free with purchase of $35 using the code TONIGUYKIT and was while supplies last.  

On your 13 month anniversary, the next time you add a cart, your Birchbox key chain will be added to your cart.   I also added a Mystery sample kit to my cart.  I received the Stainiac from the Balm and SeaRx Anti Wrinkling serum.  I have been given both of these before but I will use them.  I purchased almost $70 worth of product for $30 and got a free gift.

Points System

I love Birchbox point system - you earn points to buy products in their online store.  You can review products, buy products, sign up friends, and buy subscription boxes to earn points.   100 points equals $10.  

I redeemed my points for a few fun items.  Beauty Protector has a nice little gift set I am getting for my daughter for her birthday.  She loves this brand. 

I also love Pinch Minimergency Kit.  It includes 17 items for emergencies from band aids to hairspray.  

Birchbox also has a free add on Mystery Sample pack for two samples if your purchase is over $35.   This can be added on without using a coupon code - which is terrific as you can only use on coupon code per transaction.

Toni & Guy has a gift set right now that can be included with your purchase if you spend $35 or more.  TONIGUYKIT is the code you enter in the coupon code.  This is only while supplies last.  

The total value for this was $63.95 and I paid $28.95. 

Glossy Box December 2014

What's in 

the box?

Glossybox for December finally arrived right before the holidays.  This subscription ships for $21 a month and includes shipping.  This box is the prettiest one I have seen from Glossybox. 

I loved that the tissue paper matched the box and was tied up with a red bow.

First Look:

Toni & Guy Leave In Conditioner -  ($9.19)  I love leave in conditioners - I use them every time I shower so this is perfect for me.  It is a nice size tube too, so it will last for a few uses.  I will be buying this again. 

Rituals Miracle Scrub Ultra Softening Hand Scrub -   ($17)  This is very nice hand scrub and smells very pretty.  It does make your hands feel softer too.  I was happy to see this in my box because I would probably never buy this myself.

BellaPierre Cosmetics Mineral Lipstick in Burlesque -  ($19.99)  I do not know if this is the shade I would have picked out, but it is very pretty.  My favorite cosmetic items are lipsticks and lip glosses, so anytime I have one in a box, I am thrilled.  

Nuxe Masque Creme Fraiche de Beaute - ($32) This is a face mask to moisturize and is hypoallergenic.  I am very excited to try this one.  I would not buy this because of the price so it was fun to get it in the box this month.

Ciate Mini Paint Pot in turquoise - (full size $10, my size $8)  I love the color blue.  And I really like the Ciate nail polishes.  Perfect pick for me and loved getting it in a holiday box.

This box had a great value this month, in total it would have been $93.99 had I purchased it separately.  I have put this box on hold, but I will have to watch the spoilers because the box has gotten better since the last time I subscribed.  I do wish it had more makeup than skin and hair care products.
