Birchbox: January 2011

Happy New Year!

We’re all for resolutions, as long as they’re ones we can keep. Instead of swearing off cupcakes, we’re focusing on overall wellness, beginning with our beauty routine. It’s time to go back to the fundamentals so that we can start 2011 feeling fresh and energized.

This Birchbox is designed to be your ‘Reset’ button. From now on, don’t settle for ho-hum anything, beginning with your hair. We have a gorgeous Jasmine hair serum that will give you smooth n’ sleek tresses — no blow drying required. For a recharged complexion, try our latest obsession, one-time-use masks that give you the look of a facial in under fifteen minutes. There’s more, including an intense salve for your hands (they need love too!) and a game-changing skin product. And, because we’re all about wellness inside and out, we’ve thrown in a beautiful tea that tastes indulgent and is loaded with antioxidants.

Online there is plenty of content to help you kick off your new routine, from interviews with wellness gurus to tips on getting the most out of your face wash. Read star nutritionist Oz Garcia’s list of beautifying superfoods before your next grocery run, and watch makeup artist Nam Vo demo a snow bunny chic winter beauty look. And, if you’re feeling extra-adventurous, we even have a special Beauty Dare for you: try going makeup-free.

Here’s to a new year of exciting things,

Hayley, Katia, and the Birchbox team
