Subscriber Survey: What’s Your Favorite Birchbox Discovery?

My absolute favorite discovery is Dr. Lipp Miracle Balm. Other favorites are anything from the brand Coola and BioRepublic sheet masks.

Multiple Oribe hair products, Laura Gellar Blush in Tropic Hues, Evologie spot treatment, Caudalie moisturizing sorbet and there Beauty Elixir. Vasanti Brighten Up. I could definitely keep going since Birchbox was my first subscription box and I’m still with them 4 years later.

my favorite birchbox discovery was ipsy.

I was with Birchbox for three years and discovered some amazing things! They were my first sub ever! Some of my amazing finds would have to be:

ModelCo Party Proof Lipstick
DDF Wrinkle Resist Plus Pore Minimizer Moisturizing Serum
Tocca anything!
Chella Highlighter Pencil
Living Proof 5-in-1 Styling Treatment

I was only with Birchbox for a year or so, and canceled before the point system was discontinued only because I was on product overload, but I did find a few favorites that I keep coming back to…

Amika Dry Shampoo
Kopari Coconut oil
Dr Brandt Microdermabrasion Exfoliant
Marcelle eyeliner

I actually cancelled and resubscribed to BB because of this topic. I cancelled because I was often underwhelmed and very makeup-focused at the time. (I still love makeup but I have room in my heart for other beauty products too now). But with all the mascaras we get in these sub boxes, for me, the standout was Lord & Berry Back to Black. I really loved that and I got it from Birchbox, back when you could pay an extra $20 and they would add 2 full size makeup or nail polish products each month. I cancelled when they took that away because those were the reasons I loved BB. I decided to give them another shot because I discovered my go-to mascara from them and I hope they send me other new loves. I would still be willing to up my montly cost to $30/month if they brought back that upgrade to 2 full size color cosmetics items.

What a fun survey! I have found some neat products through bb that’s for sure!!

To start with- here are some that made me purchase the product/brand after:
Paula’s Choice exfol
Laura Gellar baked blush grapefruit
Stila liquid lipstick

And some other faves:
Bb cream!! Have only had to buy a fullsize once in over a year! Marcelle golden glow, dr brandt, supergoop and more
Facial sunscreen
Super goop lip sunscreen
Beauty protector detangler and oil
Toni and guy sea salt spray
Benefit gimme brow- will have to buy more soon
Janie’s got a gun perfume wipe
Face wipe cleansers
Mirecellar cleansing water- lasts forever!!!

I am so well stocked now. I hardly ever have to buy beauty products and I love changing up my look with all the variety. I buy when i find something i love or when i want to splurge. I organize all mine with my bb boxes– one for cleansers, one for mascaras, one for hair products ect

-Avene’s thermal water spray (my 1 true love!)
-Sunday Riley’s Good Genes
-Air Repair moisturizer (for winter)
-Marcelle Vitamin C gel moisturizer (for summer)
-Comptoir Sud Pacifique Vanille Abricot perfume
-Dr. Jart sheet masks
-Debra Lippman nail polishes
-Make Up Forever Smoky Lash Mascara

Origins GenZing eye cream (but that’s cheating, it was a sample from a Sephora purchase)
Dr. Brandt pores no more cleanser
Dr Brandt Microdermabrasionabrasion Exfoliant
And finally: Dr Lipp Miracle Balm but I can get a theee pack travel sized lansinoh from the target new mothers aisle.

Air Repair Complexion Boosting Moisturizer is my all time favorite it just works so well for my skin making it feel instantly hydrated!

BB introduced me to Oribe and I love it!!!
I’ve been able to try many brands thru my subs. I know everyone is different but I don’t understand the hype with many of the high end skin care brands.

As much as I’m annoyed with BB lately… I have discovered some great things over the last 5 years!
Kerastase hair oil
Dr. Lipp Nipple balm-such a great lip balm!
Not Soap, Radio shower gel- my boyfriend can’t live without it!
Beauty Protector leave-in
Peripera mascara
Amika dry shampoo

And those are just what I can think of in the 30 seconds I’m sitting here! 🙂

My absolute favorite Birchbox discovery is without a doubt, PARLOR by Jeff Chastain: Leave In Conditioning Spray. It has become a must have product I use everyday. Can’t go without it.

Liz Earl superskin moisturizer with neroli oil, Air Repair, and Supergoop CC cream.

I have few winners thanks to Birchbox.

HAVVN Night Cream – great for my rosacea, on 3rd bottle.
Miss Jessie’s® Original Super Sweetback Treatment
Argan oil – great for my cuticles!!
Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream – 2nd bottle

Bioderma
Hustle Butter

Tata Harper resurfacing mask
Obliphica hair serum for fine hair
Stila stay all day
Vasanti microdermabrasion

Wow! Ive been getting boxes for almost 5 years, thats a lot of discoveries. These are my favorites

Ellovi butter – love a good all in one
Hustle butter – again love a good all in one
Davines the brand is amazing
Amika Deep conditioner can’t live with out
Price Harvey Hello

I have been disappointed lately but If I think back Ive really discovered a lot of great stuff and Ill stick with them…

Before I canceled after they dropped the review for points(still sucks, but seems like no one talks about this), I found a few great finds!

The pbj lip crayon is one of my fave lippies, as well as BB’s

The water bottle that was in a LE box(my fave one ever) , it was also in the Rachael Zoe box – forgot name but glass silicone covered
(Not tech beauty but hydration helps beauty, right?)

Cc cream that I used for my terrible dark under eye(it looks like I never sleep O_o )
And probably some others I can’t think of atm, it was a really great discover box while they made it worthwhile with points! (Just switched to Ipsy and like their points! – seems silly to ever remove hem, and subscribers go with!)

*please excuse any sleepy typos 😉

Beauty protector products – smells amazing and the conditioner always left my hair soft.

Amika dry shampoo – mainly because I love the smell and it works well enough

Liz Earle hot cloth cleanser – I like other cleansers better, but this was is still one of my faves.

Laura Geller baked blush, Glamglow dualcleanse and Chella eyebrow pencil

And my favorite find from this box wasn’t even a beauty product – the This Works sleep spray. It has worked wonders for me (yes, it does give you weird dreams or maybe just causes you to remember your weird dreams, I definitely noticed that) but I have since bought 2 full-size bottles with another on the way.

Ooh, several discoveries:

Beauty Protector Protect & Detangle
Sud Pacifique Vanille Abricot perfume
Juliette Has a Gun Anyway perfume
Stila All Day Liquid Lipstick
Dry shampoos in general
Amika products
Tocca hand creams
Number 4 Fluoro5 Elixir Restore & Repair Oil
…and more!

I only had Birchbox for 6 months but I really did discover some good products at first. My absolute favorite discovery is the Davines OI All in One Milk. But I also fell in love with the Beauty Protector Protect and Detangle (the smell! ❤) and the Skin Food Black Sugar Mask. Also, I had heard of the Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray before Birchbox but I had never tried it because of the cost but I was able to buy it at a pretty hefty discount in one of their sales. So it really doesn’t count as a discovery but I probably wouldn’t have tried it otherwise. And now it’s my holy grail hair styling product.

Benefit gimme brow. But now I want to try the Roller Lash based on everyone’s comments.

And I am now convinced I just try Liz’s two favorites! Does that nail polish remover do a good job at taking off polish??

I desperately need a good acetone- free product, my nails and cuticles are so dry. I guess a base coat might help too.

Where do I begin?
OLO gardenia body serum
Smith and cult nail polish
English laundry spray
Kopari body scrub
Oribe dry shampoo
Tata Harper moisturizer

LE boxs have been the best for sure

My favorites (that I can think of right now) are:
– EXO nail polish remover
– Davines Love Shampoo & Conditioner
– Klorane Mango Shampoo (this was a GWP, but I think it still counts 🙂 )
– MD Solar Science Eye Emulsion
I know there are still many new favorite discoveries to be had, as I was subbed to BB for over one year and there are still a ton of samples (most mentioned in earlier comments) that I still haven’t gotten around to trying yet!

I love English Laundry Eau de Parfum Signature for Her. It’s my go-to fragrance! I use TONI&GUY Casual Sea Salt Texturising Spray all the time now. I also love the brands Pixi and Derma E. There are so many more good finds from BirchBox, but these are my favorites. <3 🙂
