If you checked out my original unboxing posts on January's subscription boxes, you'll know there was a pretty decisive winner and won't be at all surprised about how the comparison turned out. This has been an interesting month, though, and perhaps the last month that I'll actually bother to feature an Ipsy vs. Birchbox, since Birchbox is exiting the Canadian market. I am on the lookout for another subscription to replace my Birchbox one, as I've gotten a little bit spoiled getting two boxes a month, so if you have any suggestions I'd love it if you'd leave them in the comments! Now, without further adieu... let's proceed to the slaughter, shall we?

So... Last week I completely screwed up. I had every intention of including an update along with my Birchbox unboxing about last month's box - and then I completely forgot and went ahead and posted it without it. The only excuse I really have is that it was Friday and I just wanted to go home, drink coffee, and watch Forensic Files on Netflix. Ahem. I am a wild woman, no?

This prompted me to try something new on the blog. I feel like I do so many of these unboxings and then I never really mention the products again unless I use them up. Seems like a waste, doesn't it? So now I want to try something a little bit new and make posts every month updating you on what I actually thought of the products that I received in my box and decide which service wins the month. For the time being, I get Ipsy and Birchbox, though I suspect that might be changing in the future, but I will continue doing updates as long as I'm getting subscriptions! Also, I'm going to try to be better about actually using all of the products right away, since I tend to kinda sock them away.

So, without further adieu, let's update!
