It seems like not that long ago the January Birchbox Unboxing was here. It’s a new month which means it’s time for the February Birchbox unboxing. Of course, for those who don’t know Birchbox costs $10/month and you get 4-5 beauty samples each moth.
Make sure to watch the February Birchbox Unboxing video above. If you can’t see the above video click here
Marcelle Eye Makeup Remover
The first item in my February Birchbox was a bottle of Marcelle Eye Makeup Remover. I actually chose this as my Sample Selection this month as I love testing makeup removers. This one is supposed to be gentle enough to be great for people with sensitive eyes and contact wearers but still strong enough to remove even tough eye makeup!

Eyeko Skinny Eyeliner
The second item in my February Birchbox was a FULL-SIZE Eyeko Skinny Eyeliner. I actually received a mini of this in a previous Glossybox and wasn’t to thrilled with the formulation. While I know a lot of people love Eyeko products, for me, they tend to not work that well.

Amika Nourishing Hair Mask
The third item in my February Birchbox was an Amika Nourishing Hair Mask. While I don’t know what a “Sea Bucklethorn Berry” is, the Amika Nourishing Hair Mask still has a great scent. I can’t wait to give it a try and see how it compares to the current hair mask that I’m using.

Coola Matte Tint
The fourth item in my February Birchbox was a Coola Matte Tint. Coola seems to be a brand that is popular not only with subscription boxes but with their subscribers as well. Unfortunately, I’m not one of those fans. I’ve gotten several Coola samples over the years and again these products just don’t work for me.

Harvey Prince Sincerely Perfume
The last item in my February Birchbox was a Harvey Prince Sincerely perfume sample. Birchbox tends to give a lot of perfume samples, they do offer a “light” option where you can limit it to just six perfume samples a year and that is what I do (Note: Choosing the curated boxes does not count towards your selection). I actually really enjoyed the scent of the Harvey Prince Sincerely sample, it’s kind of a musky floral scent.

TOTAL | $28.49 |
My February Birchbox cost me $10 and I received $28.49 worth of products! My favorite item from this month’s box is the Marcelle Eye Makeup Remover, as I selected it specifically from the Sample Selection options. My least favorite item would have to be the Coola Matte Tint, just because it’s not a favorite brand of mine. While the retail value of the February Birchbox was a bit larger than normal, the personal value for me just wasn’t there this month.
Robin (Masshole Mommy) says
There was a lot of great stuff in there this month. I would love to try that mask!
Melissa says
You got some great goodies! I want to try that sunscreen.
Stacie @ Divine Lifestyle says

Wow! Looks like you got some good loot in this months box! I’ve been thinking about signing up too!

I love that you get little samples in the Birchbox! It’s a great way to try nice products without dropping loads of money.

I would love to try the eyeliner! I haven’t tried a birchbox before but am thinking about it!
aimee fauci says
Love they send out perfume samples. Great to know if it’s worth buying the big bottle.
Liz Mays says
I agree. It’s definitely nice to be able to try many different scents before investing in one. The birchbox sounds awesome.
Pam says
That makeup remover sounds like one I need to try. I have to have the ones that will work with sensitive eyes.
Liz Mays says
What an awesome bunch of items. They really treated you this month!
kendall says
I love these boxes because they help you try items you wouldn’t have otherwise – looks like you got to try some fun stuff!
Jeanine says
Sounds like a great box this month! Would love to try the Nourishing mask. That looks fabulous!

Birchbox is one of the only subscription boxes I haven’t tried. How are you liking it so far?

This is so awesome, I’d love to have a box like this every month!

I would love to have a subscription to Birchbox. Those are such great finds!
Debbie Denny says
I just love boxes. Looks like some fantastic products.
Raijean says
I miss my Birchbox subscription, I used to get some goodies every month.
Susan Moseley says
This is a nice monthly box. I would enjoy getting all the products, and at a great price. It’s like getting Christmas each month. I would enjoy the eye liner very much.
Ora Lee Gurr says
Wow, what a great haul in the February Birchbox! The perfume sounds delightful.

This birch box looks awesome this month! I personally dont think these boxes are worth it, but I’m glad you like it!

I love subscription boxes. I haven’t tried this one yet though! It looks great!

I’ve never tried Birchbox but these look like fun and interesting products to try!
Krystal says
I canceled my subscription to all my sample boxes, but this is a great haul. I do like that hair mask.
Jacqueline says
My cousin actually got a subscription for Hanukkah, so I’ve been seeing all the stuff she posts on FB when the box comes in each month. I really like that they’re samples from companies that aren’t the normal Almay/Revlon stuff. It;s definitely worth the $10 🙂
lisa says
This sounds like a really neat box to get every month. I’d like to try the eyeliner.
HilLesha says
I have heard so much good about about the Amika products, but haven’t tried them out personally. I also love how they included liquid eyeliner (my favorite!). I’ll have to check this company out for sure.
Kori Tomelden says
What a great selection of products. I really love that eye makeup remover as well. I’ll have to check that out.
Christie says
That’s an amazing box of products and great savings! I’d love to try that eye makeup remover
Digna D. says
These samples boxes are great. The only problem I have, is how I just don’t use makeup other than a BB cream and a little mascara. But if I did, I would love to try all these new products.
Rosey says
I like the perfume. I also like how skinny the tube of liquid eyeliner is in there!
CourtneyLynne says
looks like you got a pretty good box! That hair mask sounds great
Chrystal @ YUM eating says
Aww I love the birdy on your shoulder. The box is awesome. I love reusing the boxes for stuff. They make great organization containers. I’d love to know what group you belong to for trading. I have a TON from subscription boxes I will never use and it’s all collecting in my bottom desk drawer.
Notorious Spinks says
I like the new fad of boxes. I do the Walmart and Julep boxes. I did Glossy box but their customer service is a bit rude so I left. Thanks for the reveal.
Felicia says
I keep telling myself that I’m going to sign up for this. i really need to make the leap.
Carin Kilby Clark says
I love the box fad – it’s so convenient and perfect for someone like me who loves to try new things but doesn’t have time to search and find the latest items. Thanks for sharing.
Beth says
Thanks for all these awesome products! They’re all new to me so I’ll have to check them out.
Eliz Frank says
You got yourself a nice stash of cosmetics there. The base price and the retail price shows what a good deal you got. Awesome! 🙂
Camesha says
So much cool stuff! I miss Birchbox. You’re making me want to sign up again. Great products.
Terry C says
I am not too familiar with these products, but it seems very cool to give away samples. I am thinking that one of my sisters may find these items useful. I will share this with them. Thank you for sharing.
Aisha Kristine Chong says
The hair mask seems like something I would so love to make use of. Awesome products you have here.
Amanda says
What a great box of goodies! I’d love the face mask because my skin is such a mess right now!
Carolyn Bunch says
We got different items mostly, except the Marcelle eye makeup remover but I love Birchbox! They have given me the chance to try brands I normally wouldn’t and the points system is great!
Cherri Megasko says
Ooh … looks like a lot of great stuff! I’ve always wanted to be someone to regularly wear eye liner, but I just can’t make myself do it. I love the way it looks, but it’s just too much hassle for me I guess.
Danielle says
One day I plan to try out a few subscription boxes. I’ve heard mixed opinions about birch box but as a beauty product newbie I’d love to be introduced to new products.
Candy O. says
I’ve never ordered the Birch Box. I might have to order March or aPRIL.
Myrabev says
These beauty sub boxes are usually a hit or miss for me that’s why currently I am holding them off until i run out of my current products. I hope to hear more about the eye makeup remover.
