A pretty geometric holiday sweater-ish pattern is on the box.

Which is actually quite large!

Everything in this gorgeous home-focused box! While there are two body items, there are no beauty/cosmetics products, which in lots of ways makes it nicer for gifting for a great many recipients. But I totally bought this just for me!birchbox charmed life limited edition IMG_0734

I liked the packaging the mirror came in, so I took a photo!

Stephanie Johnson Folding Mirror ($25?) I have quite a few pieces from this line (Birchbox has some sort of collaboration and they are in a few limited edition Birchboxes each year). Besides the tinseltown jewelry tray, this is my favorite! It’s a beautiful color and a nice large standup mirror.  I haven’t decided if this is an office item or a go-bag item for my carryon – it’s perfect for either, but I’ll probably keep it in my office. I don’t have anything like this and I really think it’s fabulous.

Umbra Geo Ring Holder ($10) This is a classy (and inexpensive! I love Umbra!) little ring holder that you can probably slip some bracelets on as well!

Canvas Home Dauville Multiple Bud Vase in Gold ($25) The Dauville line has been in multiple boxes this past year, but I was thrilled to see this in gold instead of platinum (I love both!). The vase is glamorous and beautiful all by itself – I’m unsure if I’ll actually use it for a flower, because I love the lines and the look of it.

Tocca Crema da Mano Hand Cream – Cleopatra  ($10) This smells absolutely delicious – with a cucumber grapefruit mix.  This is a product that I go out and buy because it’s nice and light and appropriate for all the time use.

NUXE Huile Prodigieuse ($5.98) I think everyone has heard of it, but not everyone has tried it, and it’s a fantastic multi-purpose dry oil. It’s very scented, but I like this product and the scent. It has macadamia, hazelnut, borage, almond, camellia, and st. john’s wort oils. A teeny bit goes a very long way!

Isaac Jacobs Sunburst Picture Frame (exclusive for box). I knew the name sounded familiar and we have an Isaac Jacobs photo frame from a Fancy box from Ashton Kutcher 2 years ago (it’s completely different – an acrylic block!). They do the frames for Laura Ashley, and you can also (in the UK) buy a rectangular one! I’m going with about $20? It’s gorgeous and I will have to find a great photo for it!

Illume Demi Vanity Tin in Anemone scent ($10) I love the design of this candle holder, which is sort of like a cake tin. It has the signature Illume style and is pretty open or closed. Anemone is a medium-strong scent that Illume says is “like being wrapped in your lover’s shirt” and uses citrus blossoms and crisp apple blended with oak moss, oriental clove, and patchouli.  It’s a delight!

A box of matches were included. Yay! They also sell the decorated Illume matches (these ones are the freebies, but I like getting solid matches with a candle, especially in a non-candle subscription box).

This was a FAB box for just $40! Really, I can’t even believe it.  It’s one thing to get the deluxe samples and have a really high value, but a box packed full of great home items for $40 was really spectacular. My best guess on the value is $101 – Birchbox says $120, so somewhere in there. Everything was really just a great piece or item and I’m thrilled with this purchase. Now on to the new Men’s box!

I also indulged in a little something for moi – the Chuao Chocopod set, which is only $10! Can I make it last through the end of the month? Doubtful.

    Hi there! Lucky you! I keep getting the worst luck of the draw. I got the mirror too and fell in love with it actually. I ordered the LE box for my sister in law and I opened the box up to check the contents just in case the vase broke (it didn’t, thank goodness!) However, my mirror came with a huge box cut slit on the outside! I got sent a replacement, but that also had a slit. So glad to see that yours didn’t come with one too. What are the odds of this happening twice right?

    ARGH! As an ACE I completely forgot to use the code ACEHOLIDAY to get double points on this super awesome purchase!

      did you use a percent off instead?

        D’Oh! I didn’t do that either!! I was so eager to purchase, didn’t even think about applying any code. Sure could’ve used an extra 40 points =) I sent them an email, hopefully my groveling will work! (crossing my fingers!) Thanks for the wonderful recap!!

    I purchased and received the Charmed Life Box from Birchbox. I agree with Brandy. I loved everything in it. The vase had two smudges on the gold part that I could not get off (scared to try too hard) and have contacted Birchbox.

      I think that this may be the best LE box they have ever put together. I think theirs are really great when they leave out the makeup, which is funny! I hope they fix it. They are sending out the makeup bags from the other box, that was a mess!
