I decided to order a Birchbox for the first time! I was tempted because there is currently an offer for new customers, using the code "BENEFITX2" at checkout, you receive a free Benefit liner and mascara mini duo! I love getting extra bits with my orders, so I went for it! (this offer may not be running anymore)
If you want to use this offer, you can also use my referral link Birchbox and we will both get 50 points (worth £5) to use in the online shop.
The items were sent separately. Actually, I received the Benefit duo in the morning and the Birchbox in the afternoon! I was so excited!
The items were inside a padded envelope and I received also a small card welcoming me to Birchbox (see picture above).

Benefit they're Real! mascara
I didn't get the last Birchbox but I think some subscribers received this mascara.
Benefit they're Real mascara sample 3.0g (black colour)
price: £6.88 (full size product 8.5g RPR £19.50)
The mascara is reaaaaally good, I am really happy that I received it. My lashes do look longer, darker, denser. The size is perfect for travelling, the sample size is also good and I will definitely take it with me on my holidays! However, I think the price is a bit high. My Maybelline Colossal Go Extreme! Volum' costs only £7-8 (as much as this sample!) and gives similar results.

Benefit they're Real! push up liner
The liner is such a cute sample! And I loved the fact that it was individually packed and sealed!
Benefit they're Real! push up liner sample 0.10g
price: £1.32 (full size product 1.4g RPR £18.50)
The sample is actually small, although it may last longer than I think. The product is all in the flexible left part of the tube and you have to push it towards the tip with your fingers. The full size product has a different and easier mechanism to use, you just have to turn the bottom of the tube. I may complain about the packaging, but this push up liner is already one of my favourite eye liners! The colour is really black, the tip is soft and easy to draw precise lines, and it doesn't smudge! I left the line on my hand for 30 minutes and I thought that I would just rub it with some water and will come off. No! I had to use my make-up remover to get rid of it! And once again, this product will go in my travel bag!
Overall I am very pleased with my extra gift! The Benefit mini duo is worth £8.20!!!! I will definitely use these products and the value is great!
There is a list of the available Birchbox offers here.
Soon I will review also the July Birchbox!
