Beauty goodies galore!

As moms, we’re always busy taking care of everyone else. As Katie wrote previously, we put our families first and ourselves last.

To that, I invoke Donna from Parks and Recreation: “Girl, you gotta treat yo’ self!”

That’s why I subscribe to Birchbox. There are a lot of options for box-of-the-month subscription services and I admit I did little-to-no research on choosing Birchbox. I hate to say the reason why I picked it is because Gwyneth told me to, but that’s pretty much it. It’s not very often I get a taste of the goop lifestyle so I’ll take what I can get for $10/month.

What do you get for said $10/month? A box full of beauty samples! Birchbox carefully curates and selects a cadre of beauty products based on your user profile. I’ve gotten everything from full-sized nail polishes to little purse-sized packets of sunscreen. Because of Birchbox, I discovered the perfect day moisturizer for me and tried a body wash that reminded me of my great-uncle’s house. I even found myself trying out different perfumes instead of my normal go-to scent.

After you try everything out, you can purchase full-sized products from Birchbox’s extensive online shop. The best part? Write reviews on products – good or bad – and earn points to spend. They add up pretty quickly!

Birchbox even has a subscription service for men, if your man happens to be into grooming. And their blog is packed with grooming tips, recipes and great beauty advice. After reading this article about makeup and glasses, I totally changed the way I do my eyes every day.

You deserve a little treat for yourself every month. Birchbox is just a little way to give a gift to YOU.

Birchbox costs $10 a month or $110 a year. You can also gift subscriptions in 3-month, 6-month or 12-month packages. Birchbox did not pay for this post; Worth It Wednesday posts are independent of sponsorship.
