Birchbox often allows those who order $35 or more to add a Mystery Sample Pack for free. This is fun because you get a little something extra and it is a surprise.
If you do not reach the $35 minimum order then you can buy this add on for $10 but don’t do it. I don’t care how much wine you have had… I don’t care if you are high off of a chocolate bar. Don’t do it. Just do this as a fun perk because it is never as good as the $10 value of say, a sample box.
Packs come in both Ladies and Mens
Keims – Peppermint & Macadamia Shampoo: I actually have tried this shampoo out and dig it. It doesn’t have any bad stuff in it so to speak and didn’t dry out my VERY thin and VERY damaged hair. So this is something that will sneak its way into my travel bag.
This is a pretty large shampoo sample that leaves me wondering why I couldn’t try the conditioner too? But ya know, this is a mystery deal and not made for me especially.
Hard to believe the world doesn’t actually revolve around me, but I am pretty sure I would be a lot more important if it did…
Jasmine Seven – Fresh Feet Wipes: I am happy that I got four whole wipes! That is a haul in my book. Many people will wonder why I am so excited about having fresh feet wipes. I mean yeah, you are probably thinking I have gross feet and you are TOTALLY right but also because I wear flip flops a lot in my off time. There are times where I have walked around and felt I REALLY REALLLLLY wished I had something to clean then up a bit and keep the gross off. This will come in so dare I say it… handy?
These are also good for both your hands and feet so don’t let your toes tease your fingers to make them feel left out!
Verdict: I am really happy with this mystery gift but still would be sad faced if I paid $10 for it. I think they should stop charging for it and just automatically tack it to orders like a sample type of deal. I think it sets the expectations way too high. Though from time to time they do blow my mind. This is a fair one for me personally because I can use the items.

Yay! A decent mystery sample pack!
Right?!? I was happy!
I totally need those feet wipes for baby. He has smelly feet already!! Way to go mystery sample pack!
Ha! I sent you some in the box I shipped yesterday!!!
Poor guy! My niece has had horrendous BO since she was a little baby and her parents have used deodorant on her off and on. She wanted to put on a sweater a couple weeks ago and it took me a bit to convince her to put on a tanktop… I didn’t want to tell her that she already stank, but dang, kid! Perhaps I need to get her mommy some of those deodorant wipes???
Also, I’d be jazzed for foot wipes! After gardening my feet are usually grodie. [sp?]
A friend of mine’s daughter has the same issue with BO!
I literally have never smelled such a child. I have heard of these poor children… what on earth can a parent do?
I feel so bad for your niece! I can only assume she will grow out of it. I have smelled people who have insanely good natural smells. Like where they have their own perfume. I smell meh I am sure. My twin smells so good. But she is way too clean I think. I don’t think she would survive the End of Days because she has no immunity. Anyway, I just honestly wonder if there is some sort of cure for such a thing?
Very sweet mystery pack!!! I thought those foot wipes were weird but they are very useful!
I can get all the gross downtown rubbish off my scampers!!!
I didn’t even know feet wipes were a thing! Great bonus gifts, but I totally agree with you that they would not live up to my expectation of $10.
Yes the feet wipes are a step up from baby wipes lol! Totally not worth $10 but the closest thing I have seen for awhile Subista gets the best mystery packs!!!
I will put some aside for you as well!
Ahhh thanks but you can give it to the wee one with the stinky feet as long as those clean baby feet get kissed 😉
