Birchbox August 2016 box

Birchbox is a beauty sample subscription box with at least 5 new items to test out each month. Birchbox is $10 a month and formerly featured an extensive points/review system that they have removed in favor of 50 points total ($5 in the shop). You can find more about the Birchbox review program changes here.

Autumn may be just around the corner, but who says summer has to end? We filled this box with beauty treats to help you carry that breezy, summery feeling into fall (think: coconut oil-infused cleansing wipes and a weightless, long-lasting lipstick). And since there’s nothing like uncooperative hair to suck up time that could be spent in the sun, we’ve included two of our favorite helpers to ensure great hair days, no matter the season.

Every month you can select between a sample choice to get a box tailored to your profile, or a pre-curated box. This is the curated Endless Summer Box! Current subscribers can buy this exact box for $10.

The information card gives brief details on each item. You can visit Birchbox.com/MyBox to easily see the details of your box, which I recommend because sometimes they have videos on the item product pages which I find useful.

Birchbox August 2016 review

I love that Birchbox realizes that summer is still going on. Sometimes I’m all YES FALL Y’ALL but mostly I’m still enjoying the last weeks summer! (As a mom with school age kids it ends in exactly 20 days.)

Acure Coconut + Argan Oil Cleansing Towelettes ($2.80) These will actually help remove makeup thanks to the coconut and argan oil, but most importantly you can freshen up after a hot August day!

BONUS: Hum Nutrition Raw Beauty Green Superfood Powder ($39 full size) I do love a good superfood mix! This reminds me of ALOHA’s Good Greens a lot. If you want to try out HUM’s other vitamins you can use this deal, although Birchbox has a GWP deal on the Raw Beauty too!

  • HUM Nutrition: Take the beauty quiz and get $10 off. Stack the coupon with my referral code 1BA66A0F0 for a total of $20 off your first order. Save an additional 25% by buying 3 supplements. Use coupon code HUM10.

Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Patina ($12) Great shade and definitely long-lasting color. It doesn’t stay creamy on your lips forever but it definitely leaves a great stain – and in the same shade (important!).

Marcelle BB Cream Golden Glow ($4.20) I loved the texture on this product, which gives a subtle golden glow without looking overly bronzed or anything crazy. It uses light-reflecting pigments to hide complexion imperfections too!

Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Oil ($2.24) If you’ve been around for a few years, you might know that my hair is typically fine and limp, but it’s been frizzy like crazy this summer! I don’t mind the volume but looking all crazy has got to stop! This works great without weighing my hair down and I’m seeing how long that lasts and whether or not I might spring for a full bottle next summer if I experience the same weirdness! Bonus – it goes with the shampoo & conditioner from last month’s box.

Beauty Protector Protect and Detangle (1 oz? $2.94?) Aw Birchbox, you shouldn’t have! This was in my very first box! It smells great and with many mops to detangle, always a winner here! I guess it’s needed for when the frizz-guard wears off and you fail to brush your hair anyways. Or is it just me?

I think this was a great box for $10 (and for August!), and it had a value of about $24. I’m still missing the Birchbox points system – but I’m not missing filling out those surveys, that’s for sure!
