Heya Aspiring Gurus!
This is potentially my dad’s last Birchbox for a while. He has a nice stash of hair products and he wants to take a month or two (or three) off to go through everything that he has. I tried to cancel and Birchbox told me that I would lose my points. I emailed them asking if I was really going to lose 28 USD worth of points. I am keeping my subscriptions, so I don’t see why. We will see what they have to say. I recently subscribed to Nature Box, because I was curious about the snack company. I should be receiving my first box next week. So, here is my makeup post for Friday.
English Laundry Cambridge Knight Eau de Parfum, ? fl oz for 1 USD?
My dad liked this scent, but wouldn’t buy it for the price. I totally agree with him. It smells nice, but really nothing special.
PARLOR by Jeff Chastain Reworkable Hold Paste, 0.5 oz for 4 USD
My dad really likes hair paste and the fact that you can use it on wet or dry hair. My dad just likes to rub some paste in his hair and call it a day. I like effortless style and I am considering getting my bf some hair paste. I love hair paste myself for grip on braids. This seems like a TON of product, though. My dad will have months of use since you only need a little bit, no matter your hair length.
PLANT Get It On Body Wash, 1 fl oz for 2.22 USD
My dad laughed at the name and is intrigued enough to give it a try. It is a one time use sample, but you can usually know with body wash. The smell isn’t amazing, but if it is very moisturizing, I would buy it for him for Father’s Day. Anyone has any Father’s Day ideas?
Declan Solid Squared, 1 ct for 30 USD
My dad told me that I could have the pocket square. I told me to put it away until he has a fancy suit worthy even to go to like my wedding. This will be sitting for a long time. This was really ill suiting for my dad.
Word. Notebooks, 3 pack for 10 USD
My dad loves this little notebooks for writing out shopping lists or things he wants to remember. They are nice little notebook that are easy to just throw in a bag and go. These will make shopping so much easier!
This month’s subscription is worth a whopping 47.22 USD, which is double the subscription cost! This is a really great value and well worth the money. I did cancel the subscription and Birchbox assured me that I will not lose my points. I will be ordering something from them soon! An early Birthday treat to me, myself, and I. It’s all about me, me, me, me, and everybody. lol If you know where that song lyric is from, high five!
With Love,
Home Sweet Phoenix Cove 
I like how birchbox man looks! overall, thinking on your past posts too. what do they mean with the points? once I canceled my prepaid year sub and they just dumped the value into points that I could spend.
It said something like “Last chance to use your points” before cancelling and I was afraid that I would lose them. Birchbox assured me that this is not the case and that I can redeem my points.
Is the points service different for each box?
No. Mine are combined since I used one account for both boxes.
Oh. Then it would be weird to have lost them. I think I have about $20 worth? There’s so much to choose from.
I know! I think I want the Jouer BB cream that comes with the Beauty Blender and two sample products. I just bough BB cream though. Maybe I’ll buy something else then… too many choices!
They even have random things like tea and stationary
Wow. I didn’t know that. lol
It’s in the women’s lifestyle section I think. Some of the teas something be good but r like $20 for only 20 bags or something. If you buy tea at Dunkin that’s not bad but compared to most other teas.
That sounds Cray Cray. A dollar a tea is sort of crazy to me.
Same. Unless it’s from Starbucks or something.
Yeah. A special occasion.
I love their tea!
