You've spent the entire holiday season buying presents for others, so why not spoil yourself a little? Sign up for Birchbox and for $10 a month you’ll receive monthly deliveries of oversized, high-end beauty samples from brands like Benefit, Oscar Blandi, and Korres.
When you join, you’ll fill out a questionnaire with your skin tone, hair type, and beauty style and Birchbox will curate your box based on your responses. Then, for the price of a latte and scone, you'll receive a bevy of products that best flatter your features.
Find something you want more of? Visit the Birchbox Shop with full-size versions of all your samples (plus other must-have items). Sign up now and get $20 off any purchase of $75 or more in the Birchbox Shop with the code BBLOVE. Use that discount to pick up a present for someone on your list, or snag something for yourself (we won't tell).
