Birchbox is my other monthly $10 beauty box. It doesn’t come with a cool bag, but includes about the same number of products. I consider Birchbox and Ipsy to be pretty comparable, and each month I go back and forth about which I liked better.

Here’s what Birchbox sent me for August:

• Cailyn Gel Eyeliner
• Whish Deodorant Swipe
• Whish Exfoliating Body Wash
• Miss Jessie’s Super Sweetback and Rapid Recovery Treatment

I will use all of these! I have wavy hair that I’m always trying to coax into lasting curliness, and these samples will allow me to try the Miss Jessie’s products without investing in a large, expensive tub.
