January 2014 Birchbox Review

In January I made a post showing you all what I got in my Birchbox. I always like going back towards the end of the month (before I get the next month's box) and let you know what I thought. 

There were 5 items in this month's Birchbox: 

1. Nourishing Body Cream by 100% Pure - I received three .067 Fl oz packages. The packing was nice only in the fact I used one package each time and didn't have to worry about closing it up. The full-size is 8 oz for $15 dollars. For perspective that is the same size as Bath and Body works Triple Body Moisture Cream. I might end up getting the full size when I finish some lotions I already own. Being 100% vegan and natural it is worth the few dollars more. There are many different kinds, I think I would try Green Apple. I received Pink Grapefruit, it smelled good, I just like the Green Apple smell better. 

2. Protect & Detangle by Beauty Protector - The next product was one I was super excited about, my hair get so tangled so I thought this would be a great product. Unfortunately, it would not spray out and so I had to dumb it in my hair to use. I use two products already to detangle and give moisture to my hair. I like those two so much better then Protect and Detangle. I received 1 oz and the full size is $21.95 and 8 oz. I have other products  that I love so much more so I will not be purchasing this! 


3. Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser by Liz Earle- I received 1 fl oz the full-size is only 3.3 fl oz and $21.50. I really liked this product, I don't know if I would pay that much for it though. I think I will probably try some other face washes. I liked how the muslin cloth felt like it was exfoliating my skin! I am really glad I got this in my birchbox! 

4. Kitten Heels by Ruby Wing- I love getting nail polish in my birchbox! This color was such a fun color, I have a post on this to see the color better!  

5. Assorted Teas by Ahmad Tea London- This was a fun surprise! I have recently fell in love with tea so it was fun to try these. I received three different flavors, two black teas (Peach & Passion Fruit and English Tea No. 1) and one green tea (Jasmine Romance). 
  I liked the Peach & Passion Fruit as well as the Jasmine Romance. I wasn't a fan of the English Tea No. 1 it was too bitter for me. I might have to order these teas you get 40 bags for $7.
 Thank you reading! I hope you enjoyed ! I totaled up what this would have cost based on what I got in my Birchbox and the total was over $15 dollars. Birchbox is a a flat $10 rate and no shipping, so if you have an extra ten dollars each month you should try it! I love getting a new box each month and the surprise of what's inside!
