I know I already reviewed Birchbox previously, but this month’s box was so pretty and full of goodies!
* Supergoop! Daily Correct CC Cream spf 40 sample
* Acure Organics Lip Lush in Birthday Suit. This is a full size sample, ya’ll!
* Davines Ol All In One Milk (It’s for your hair) plus a sample of their shampoo and conditioner. I haven’t tried it yet, but it smells pretty good.
* Juliette Has A Gun perfume sample. The scent is called Anyway. It smells divine! Described as a “carefree blend of green lime essence, neroli, jasmine, and ambroxan. I don’t know what that last ingredient is supposed to smell like, but I know I like it.
* Vasanti BrightenUp! Enzymatic Face Rejuvenator. Another full size sample! Two in one box!

Below I have an extremely affordable option: Walmart’s Beauty Subscription comes out quarterly, so you’ll get one for each season. The last one I got before the one pictured below was disappointing. Not much in it. I got mostly packets of stuff and hairbands, and I have short hair, so that was pointless.
This months’ was definitely worth more than $5! A full size whitening toothpaste and a full size Neutrogena lipstick crayon, plus other goodies that I will use. With the Walmart subscription there is no customizing. You don’t fill out a profile or anything, so you get what you get. If you like getting surprises in the mail, you can’t go wrong with this one for $5!
