Like all Limited Edition Birchbox boxes, this one has some beautiful packaging! (That crinkle packing paper got black dust on everything, though!)

This box comes with a card detailing each item included.
Michael Todd Concentrated C Antioxidant Moisturizing Serum – FULL SIZE! Value $37
(Good to know for swaps – sealed in plastic)
I like this brand! This serum is made with 70% organic ingredients, and I found the formula to be very lightweight and moisturizing. (There’s one review on the Birchbox site, and the reviewer isn’t a fan of the scent, so I went into testing this product thinking it would smell weird. The scent is fine to me – but I could see how some might not like it).
Ciaté Nail Polish in Paparazzi – FULL SIZE! Value $15
This is a deep red wine creme shade. (Also, I’m just a sucker for Ciate nail polish bottles. Whoever had the idea to put a bow on it is a genius!)
NER:D Skincare Repair Master Mask – 1 mask Value $18.70
This brand is new to me! This mask is designed to improve elasticity and firmness. I’m all about that – but this mask takes 30 minutes (or longer if you like), so I haven’t gotten a chance to try it yet.
Caudalie Divine Oil – 15 ml Value $7.35
I’ve sampled this before, and I think it is a great multi-purpose oil. Good for skin, cuticles, hair, etc! (Plus this is one of those brands that just always feels luxe to me).
Smith & Cult The Shining Lip Lacquer in Life in Photographs – FULL SIZE! Value $22
(Good to know for swaps – sealed with sticker)
(Boxes will either include this shade, or the Hi-Speed Sonnet shade). I love the packaging design of the Smith & Cult nail polish, so I was pretty excited to add this lip gloss to my collection when I saw it was in this box!
This lip gloss really doesn’t add any color (I gave up on my attempts to swatch it and the eye shadow below), but it gives an amazing amount of shine without any stickiness.
Jouer Powder Eyeshadow in Praline – FULL SIZE! Value $22
(Subscribers will receive one of several shades).
Unfortunately for me, this shade doesn’t show up on my skin at all. I love the satiny finish of these Jouer eyeshadows though. I may try to swap for some of the other colors.
Cargo TexasLash Mascara – FULL SIZE! Value $20
I haven’t gotten a chance to try this yet, but I have sampled Cargo’s TexasLiner, and I liked it, so I’m hopeful!
Stephanie Johnson Tinseltown Gunmetal Medium Flat Pouch – Value $30?
(This pouch came with an outer protective plastic bag).
I’m estimating on the value since I can’t find this exact pouch for sale online. It’s a really well-made pouch, and the material has some thickness to it. Here it is with my iPhone 6+ to give you a sense of how big it is:
And the lining should be easy to wipe clean in case of any makeup spills:
Lastly, I wanted to include the bonus mystery sample pack I received with this order:
For all orders totaling $35 before coupons are applied, you can add a free sample pack to your order.
No.4 Blow Dry Lotion – 1 oz Value $6.40
W3LL People Expressionist Mascara – (travel size?) Value $8?
I love both these brands so I lucked out on mystery samples in this order!
Verdict: This box has a value of about $172. (Keep in mind that I may be off with my Stephanie Johnson pouch estimate). I think that’s great for a box that only cost me $38.40 after coupon! I’ll use everything besides the eyeshadow, so I’m happy with the items too.
What do you think of the Limited Edition Everyday Glamour Birchbox?
Written by Liz Cadman
I love this box. I was originally disappointed to get the lighter lip gloss, but I have found it looks great over stains, including the red one that came in January’s Korean birchbox. The only product I am still on the fence about is the Jouer eyeshadow, which I got in the Praline shade pictured above. I appreciate the other tips, but I am just not sure I would use this shade for the purposes noted. I had thought about trying it as an under cheekbone contour powder but I am not sure if its dark enough to show up.
I was trying to not get this box, but gave in after seeing your review. Overall I’m really pleased. I got the same color lipgloss and while I would have preferred the other shade, I do actually like the shine it adds so it’s a good one to keep in my purse.
Id love it if Birchbox would come up with an option to choose your shades in these LE boxes – even if it was just two box options, like one with the darker shades and one with the lighter ones.
Although I was planning to put the light lip gloss in my regift pile, but didn’t because the sticker seal was dirty thanks to the dusty packaging and the dented design of the gloss cap. But I’m glad I tried it as I like the formula so I guess it worked out okay. 🙂
Love love love the Caudalie Divine Oil – I got it as a sample in a Sephora order and actually purchased the full size. It’s wonderful as a night time moisturizer and it smells fantastic.
Liz, thank you for the coupon. Leap is the only one I have not used and can use. I have been waiting for your review before I order cos I am dying to try the cult lip gloss but want to see the color first. I got the set for $8.40 plus points.
$8.40! That’s an amazing deal! I love Birchbox points + coupons + limited edition boxes!
I received my box today and I LOVE it. I love the nail polish. It is a great color!
I got my box today and love it! And the best part is someone made a mistake and put 2 lipglosses (one of each) in my box! Great surprise!
OMG LIZ I love your phone case!! Is it from Case of the month? I need one : )
This one is from Society6: https://society6.com/product/galaxy-e8u_iphone-case#9=376&52=377
I have a similar one that I got at Best Buy – I love it! http://www.bestbuy.com/site/speck-case-for-apple-iphone-5-and-5s-purple-pink/6044028.p?id=1219182330487&skuId=6044028
I can’t wait to get mine. Thanks for the coupon code. With the code and my Birchbox points I got it for free!
Eyeshadows that match your skin tone are really good to use along the edges of your color shadow to help blend it out, especially if you’re doing a smoky look. It makes a subtle but visible difference!
This looks like a really good box; I’m sorry I passed on it. Your review makes it look so much better than BB’s preview, haha.
Thanks for the tip on the eyeshadow!
I am obsessed with the Caudaline oil but I don’t see where they’re getting that $197 value. Also, I too am tired of the Marcelle eyeliners that don’t look flattering on anyone.
I so want this box but I’m afraid I’ll get horrible lipgloss and eyeshadow colors I can’t use just like in the Allure box.?
I get horrible colors in the Allure box, too. But I got the same pink gloss Liz got in this LE, and my eyeshadow was different but definitely usable (for me), a warm but light brown. Looks a bit darker than the one Liz shows up above.
If that eyeshadow is your skin color, it’d make a great setting shadow over any eye primer. Or for adding a touch of skin tone back to the middle lids for brightening effects.
No joke, for every single Birchbox shop order I get with a sample pack, one of the two items in the sample pack is a Marcele eyeliner. Every time. I have like 15 of those things now.
*Marcelle
It’s the same for me and most of them are bright turquiose:(
I’m getting a little more color variation. The one yesterday I got was dark (although I do have the turquoise, as well). I am not sure what actual color it is because my living room is not well lit.
Me too! I have 5-6 blue Marcelle eyeliners now… all of them in the same shade :-/
I wasn’t sure if the smith & cult is damaged or not since the packaging looks bent. Mine came today and looked like that too so maybe that’s normal…
That’s part of the design of their products.
If you’re referring to the top not being perfectly round, although I haven’t received the lipstick, the nail polish is the same way so I’d assume it’s just the way it is.
Its the design. I love it!
Wow, that came fast! This looks much better in your review than it sounded to me when introduced.
Mine arrived today!!!! I love the pouch! The serum was a big size, but it smells strong, not bad but if anybody is sensitive to scents they may not enjoy it. I love LE boxes!!!! My regular box came today too, so the mail was extra fun and treaty!!!!!
Oooh this is a really nice box! These BB LEs are addicting!
Anxiously awaiting mine.
I can’t wait to get mine! Got it free after points and a $10 coupon! Happy birthday, Me!
