It is the end of an era for me and Birchbox. This was the very first beauty box I subscribed to back in the summer of 2012, and I’ve been receiving my monthly surprises ever since. Four years of samples, lots of amazing discoveries and new favorites, but it’s time for me to finally pull the plug on the one subscription I never thought I would cancel. My decision came from the recent changes to Birchbox points system. The product review points gave me an incentive to feel more positive about the samples, even the ones that didn’t work well for me. With that bonus now gone, I was finally able to hit that “Unsubscribe” button and I don’t regret it one bit. View Post
