Beauty in a Box!

I finally got my invite!  After signing up and waiting about a month, I am now officially a member of Birchbox, a monthly beauty subscription service that delivers a box of high-end beauty products and samples every month (for a flat $10 fee) right to your doorstep!  Categories include everything from makeup, haircare and skincare to fragrance and fun, non-beauty extras.  There is even a Birchbox service for men for the Metrosexual in your life.

Birchbox is the brainchild of Harvard Business School grads Katia Beauchamp and Hayley Barna.  Between the combination of the void of on-line websites selling higher end products (generally a touchy-feely sale vs. visual) and Hayley's best friend being a beauty editor, Birchbox was born.  The site is very user-friendly and features an on-line store where you can buy full sizes of your favorite products.  You can also give a Birchbox subscription as a gift to the Fashionista you know.

I am excited to receive my introductory Birchbox kit in the upcoming few weeks and will post pictures and product reviews here!  Take a peek online at:  www.birchbox.com
