What's in my March BirchBox

I'm finally back to blogging after some crazy work & school times!  I have a lot of reviews and hauls coming up as well as some "office makeup" looks.  But for now, here's a look at what was in my birchbox for March
  1. Fresh Sugar Rose Tinted Lip Treatment
  2. Annick Goutal Petite Cherie Perfume Sample (it smelled fruity, not floral to me)
  3. Kerastase Elixir Ultime (a hair oil)
  4. Essie Luxeffects in A Cut Above
  5. Twistband Hairtie
At $8 for the Essie polish alone, I think this box was worth the price.  I actually just got the Fresh Sugar Tinted duo from Sephora for my birthday in February, but I was psyched to get another one as I can't justify the $22 price tag (review coming soon).

The perfume sample was a bit disappointing, but expected from birchbox now.  The box was also a teen vogue promo, so there was a deal to subscribe to the mag (which I won't because I'm far from a teen).  I've actually gotten the hair ties from birchbox before, but this was a new line of spring colors.  I do like the hairties, but for the price from that company, you could buy them cheaper, even at sephora (which I have done).

Overall, I am still pleased with the service and the point system.  I have a haul/review coming up from when I recently redeemed some points!  I don't think I'll use the polish a lot because I can't really wear glitter to the office, but it's cute for a night out or next valentine's day or just a day you are feeling pink & girly.
