April 2012 Birchbox, Sample Society


Anyone else do Birchbox? This is what i got in this months box. A willa foaming cleanser, Kahina argan oil and facial lotion, Wonderstruck by Taylor Swift and a full-size alima lip balm!  Ive only tried the alima, its a nice natural tinted lip balm. I just wanted to write a small blurb about Birchbox this time, next months box I will do the whole review/picture thing :)


If you havent heard about Birchbox and want to check it out, its always cool with me if you use my referral link :) https://www.birchbox.com?raf=zq2q2 
So basically you get 4-5 samples each month (many are deluxe size, once in awhile even full-size!) for $10 bucks a month, shipping is free. I pay for this myself, i am not promoting the company or anything. I think its really fun, for me because (if you resist the urge to preview your samples on the website before they come) you get a monthly surprise in your mailbox and get to try out new goodies! There are several other companies that have similiar type services, but the only one i am familiar with/use is this one. 


I have however just signed up for Sample Society which is associated with Allure and part of the beautybar.com website. I wont get my first box until June though, so we'll see how i like that one! Sample Society is $15 dollars a month, but you get a free year subscription to Allure magazine which I had wanted anyway so that sold the box for me!


Cheers!

BzzAgent.com



I am a BzzAgent, and if you dont know what that means, BzzAgent is a website where companies go when they want to spread the word about their products or services. You get invited to campaigns based on your profile and survey responses, and then you give your honest opinion about the product/service and also "bzz" about your experiences to family, friends, even strangers! Whomever you feel spreading the word to. Sometimes its just a digital campaign about something like a charity, or if its a product you could receive full size products, samples to give out, coupons, etc. Its great and ive been a member for years :) You dont have to promote the product, just give your honest opinion. Its free to sign up, the website address is: www.bzzagent.comI will be doing future posts about the BzzKits i get from BzzAgent, so i just wanted to introduce it to you if you havent heard of it :)
