I'm late writing my review of Birchbox this month because (again), Birchbox failed to deliver my monthly beauty subscription box, then it took ages for them to actually sort it out for me. In the end, I received the box at the beginning of this month instead of last month. I only signed up for this month because I wanted to try a couple of products that I saw as advertised as being in the March box. Sadly, I only got one of the three products that I wanted to try, and I got two repeat products.
The design for March's Birchbox has wordsearches on it, and it came in a box designed as a wordsearch. I located a few words on the box, and most of the words were related to hair. Read below for the product reviews.
Indeed Labs Hydraluron moisture boosting mask: This is a sheet mask to help repair dry skin, and it promises to help complexion. I was excited to use this, but unwrapping and unfolding it was a hassle, and then it was not the right size or fit for my face. I did not feel any difference in hydration when I removed the mask.
amika mask: This hair mask helps to hydrate hair and seal split ends. I enjoyed using the product, and it smelled good and made my hair feel ultra-soft, and the smell still lingered after rinsing it out.
Arrow - BOOST Color Enhancing Balm: This item was received in all boxes in March. This lip product promises to be paraben and cruelty-free, and it's also a vegan product. It protects lips as well as adjusts to your individual pH to add colour. I was excited to try this product, and it does add a slightly darker shade to lips. This suited my skin tone perfectly.
Polaar - Polar Night Cream: This night cream is to be applied before bed to promote cell regeneration for a radiant complexion. I've never really held much faith on creams as they would need to be used over time to see if they really do make a difference.
ModelCo - More Brows: Every subscriber received this product in their March box. I have used this product as well as the brand's mascara, which I found too clumpy. I received the medium to dark brown colour. I don't tend to use brow products, so I don't think this will get a lot of use.
deep sleep pillow spray: This is another product that I have received in a previous Birchbox. Lavender scent is sprayed onto the bed linen at bedtime to aid sleep. I did not find it to work as the scent does not last long.
I will be receiving a box this month (April) because I did not cancel my subscription in time due to not having received the March box. Hopefully it will not take ages to arrive, and I hope it has better products for me. What did you think of the March Birchbox?
