BirchBox December 2012 Review

Well I checked my tracking this morning for my Birchbox and it said that it wouldn't be here until tomorrow but it surprised me and came today. I really had high hopes for this one since I really liked last months box but it just wasn't to be.  This is probably my least favorite box from them so far. :(  I understand that not everyone can be great but I have so many of the same products this month its going to be hard to actually try them.

The box looked really cute when it got here.

I had Box #3 for those that want to know.  Here is what I got:

• Kerastase leave-in cream which says its to help repair chemical processed and the effects of heat styling your hair. It also says its for dry to very dry hair. None of these are my hair so I probably will no be trying these and will pass them along.  This is probably the farthest off from my profile that I've had. Oh and they did send two packets but with the length and thickness of my hair I'm not sure that there is enough of it there.
• Juice Beauty CC Cream - I will admit I haven't tried any of the CC creams yet. I've gotten a couple in the different boxes recently so I should give them a try.  Hmm maybe I should start a try it Tuesday blog series and try something for a week.  Would you like to see that?
• Thymes body lotion again I'm not a huge lotion person so this will probably be passed along.  It is a decent sample size so it would fit nicely in a purse or diaper bag to take with you.
• Modelco shine ultra lip gloss.  This is the only thing in here that I kindof like right off.  I got the berry pink color and since I love lip gloss I will give this a good shot.
• My extra item this month was another lotion from Thymes. It's a one use sample foil package in the Lotus Santal.
• Also included was a coupon for $50 off at rent the runway but I don't count these coupons since you have to buy something to use them.

So if you look at my box this month I got 2 lotions and 2 different types of creams.  Nothing that I loved but I know that not all boxes are winners and I have really liked my last couple of boxes. Other boxes looked great this month and I'm hoping some of my friends get one of those. :)  If you want to join in for the fun and surprise check out Birchbox and get a box a month for $10. They also have a points system where you can review the products and get points towards discounts on full size items. I just cashed in alot of my points on some holiday presents. :)

So let me know do you subscribe to Birchbox  which box did you get and did you love it this month?
