Although there have been a million beauty subscription services launched in the last few years, most fall by the wayside as they simply don't offer anything worth subscribing to. However, Birchbox were the original and still remain a great service that provides a bit more than just a box full of beauty samples through your letterbox. Birchbox prides themselves on providing customers with a handpicked selection of products that suit their skin type, complexion and likes, as well as lots of little bonus treats and experiences. Not only that, but all the products you receive in your box can be purchased via their website - with free shipping for the month of their inclusion. This is a service I can really get behind, especially as they're bringing us lots of exciting things... Including this month's collaboration with handbag queen Lulu Guinness. This March Lulu has handpicked her products of choice, of which include household names and undiscovered secrets. Not only that, but there are lots of extra suprises in the box that are hard to resist...

The box is beautifully wrapped and stays true to Lulu's identity, especially as her Spring 2014 collection is inspired by sweeties; many of her new season bags look like humbugs and liquorice alsorts, so it's no suprise she's chosen a stripey box and even included a stick of rock. I don't want to ruin the surprise too much if you're planning on ordering one of these, but the box contains a little book of Life Lessons written by Lulu Guinness, as well as a voucher to pop along and have your brows sorted at Benefit and even £20.00 off any Lulu Guinness purchase until the end of the month.
The box itself includes Benefit's Stay Don't Stray eye primer, Dr Brandt's Pore No More pore refiner, Aroma Works body oil, Molton Brown hand cream and English Laundry No7 perfume. It's great to see a real combination of products and a variety of textures, encouraging us all to push our beauty boundaries and try something we wouldn't normally have thought of. All these products are 'classics' and I can see why Lulu chose them - they help to get your skin looking tip top, as well as adding a hint of classic fragrance to your look.
If you want to nab one of these beauty boxes, then you better be quick as you can only get your hands on them until the end of March. As a special treat, enter the code BBXBloggers at the checkout to get this box for only £5.00 - yep, just a FIVER! There's even a money back guarantee, so if you're not happy with a box you can get a refund within 14 days. It's hard to find a reason why not to give it a go, especially as they've packed it so nicely...
Are you a fan of beauty boxes or Lulu Guinness? What do you think of this collaboration?
