Birchbox is another $10.00 per month subscription box.  It has sample sized beauty items.  They have both men's and women's boxes.  The men's boxes are $20.00 and sometimes they make me jealous.  I really like their points system.  You receive 10 pts per review and 50 for referring friends.  100 pts is $10.00 in the Birchbox store and you can use it towards anything in their store.  Birchbox also includes a a card the describes the theme on one side and the products and the prices for the full sizes on the other.  This month's theme was a thank you to their subscribers.

I like eye creams, especially in the colder months when occasionally that area dries out and can age me.  Which is not something I'm a fan of.  I was happy to see an eye cream in my box.  This one was the 100% Pure Organic Coffee Bean Caffeine Eye Cream.  The full size is $25.00 for 1 oz.  I haven't seen that it does much for dark circles but it does moisturize well.  

I have this exact sample from a Sephora kit.  It's the Anastasia Beverly Hills Perfect Brow Pencil which is $23.00 for the full size.  It has a good firmness for brows and the colors are very natural.  It's not exactly the Brow Wiz or the pomade, but it is good for a quick brow or for a brow beginner.

I don't know if Birchbox looked at my Favorites, but the Mondale Intense Café has been in there.  I have wanted to try it for quite some time.  The $120.00 for 50 ml is a little daunting though.  This smells like coffee and vanilla and roses.  It's delicious for the autumn.  I hate that I want it, because... well, that's a pretty penny.  

There were so many things I liked in this box.  I have to give it to Birchbox.  They tied up the numbers and we're now 4 to 4.

* I bought my own Birchbox, no one thought I should try a box on someone else's dime.
