Birchbox Man - May 2013 Box


May is Birchbox Man's 1st birthday so it was a great month to start subscribing! The box for the month is dedicated to being a grown-up. J was asking me repeatedly when the first box was coming so when it arrived he pretty much tore right into it so I didn't get an untouched just opening shot-boo hoo. Just by looking at it though, this box definitely was well worth the $20 price. I also like the actual box they use versus the women's box - the slide out drawer is kinda nifty.



Billy Jealousy Sake Bomb Body Moisturizer $36
A sake scented blend of coconut, Monoi de Tahiti oils, and vitamin E
This stuff smells pretty good - J used a small amount on his face (yeah i know...) and since he has sensitive skin I cringed at that thought but he had no issues

Oribe Supershine Moisturizing Cream $49
A multitasking formula that serves as a styler and leave-in conditioner
I think I am stealing this. After using the shampoo and conditioner from my April box I love Oribe!

drinkwel Multi-Vitamin Packets $40 for 90 count bottle
A daily multi-vitamin and mineral supplement for guys who like to enjoy a beer or two.
Haven't tried these out yet but will report once one of us does- however they didn't give enough pills in the packet to follow their directions for recommended usage...


Marvis Classic Mint Toothpaste $10.50
Italian imported peppermint toothpaste with an apothecary inspired design
the design of the packaging and tube is fun (yes that's the graphic designer in me speaking)

Men in Cities Cotton Woven Belt $40
One size fits all, two-tone woven cotton belt with vegan leather trim
J wears belts like this all summer long so this is a home run


Vivarati No Show Socks $10 per pair
Comfortable low-rise socks that won't peek out from warm weather footwear.
J thought these were still on the small side and slipping off his feet - although he's a bit picky when it comes to socks so I'm thinking I have 2 new pairs of socks! (sorry for fuzzy pic, don't know what happened here)


The box total came to about $70 worth of products...not bad huh!?
