Birchbox Pop Up Shop London Review and Photos

Birchbox UK

If you're familiar with Birchbox* then you'll know it's one of the UK's most popular monthly beauty subscription boxes. It's also a great way to discover and test out a number of sample sized products and beauty tools before you decide whether you want to invest in a particular full sized product.

Last month Birchbox opened their first pop up store where you can fully experience the thrill of building your own Birchbox Beauty Box. I decided to pop into the shop and create my own, so here are my thoughts...

If you order your box online, you will receive 5 beauty products/beauty tools that are tailored to you each month. The box can be purchased monthly, 6 monthly or yearly and with the monthly subscription there's the option to cancel at any time.

The Pop Up Shop is located at 43 Carnaby Street, London and is open until the 31st March 2018. Here you can build your own box and let me tell you there is a whole host of amazing brands and goodies to pick from!

In the shop, you can choose from Two Make-Up Items, Two Skincare or Body Products and One Hair Product. You can also decide whether you want to build one box for £15, a second for £12 and a third for £10. If you want to build a fourth, fifth or sixth box, then the price is £10 from the third box onwards.

Whatever you decide to choose from, the products are ticked off on an informative product guide for you to take home, then everything is boxed up, tied with ribbon and bagged in the most beautiful bag for you to take away there and then.

All of the sample sized product can also be purchased in full size and can be found on the Birchbox Website here*. There is also a selection of full-sized Beauty Products available at the shop also.

Overall I certainly enjoyed the experience of building my own box and I definitely recommend giving this a go if you're in London as it's a great idea if you just love testing out new products but you don't want to commit to the full size, or even if you travel a lot as all the products are travel-friendly too. This would even make a great gift for someone who loves beauty!

I award the Birchbox Pop Up Shop a 4.8 out of 5
