Birchbox moms are our biggest fans—they do everything from sending cookies to the office to snapping pics of their proud un-boxing moments. They also happen to be a very beauty-obsessed bunch (maybe it’s guilt by association). In honor of Mother’s Day, we polled our moms and asked them to name the Birchbox products on their wish list. Take a peek, and don’t forget to pick up a gift for your own mom while there’s still time: order by noon tomorrow, and select Next Day Air delivery!

Rock climbing at Brooklyn Boulder is loads of fun for many reasons, not the least of which is the spectacular people watching: wiry athletes swinging from hand-holds like monkeys, hipster couples on first dates, and too-cute kids who look like they are part-monkey. It’s also the ultimate place for team building because, as one of my editors pointed out, ‘You’re literally holding each others’ lives in your hands.’ Beat that, trust falls.

Is it just us, or is it impossible to get out of bed these days? More likely than not, it’s because the weather here has been rainy and chilly—and staying curled up under the covers seems like a much better option than stomping through puddles. But if you must venture outside, you might as well do it in style: think eye-catching umbrellas, bright yellow rain coats, and patent leather pieces.
And once you pick out your outfit, here’s how to combat rainy day hair.
When Danielle came on board, it was a dream come true for our email marketing team (which was a lonely team of one before her arrival). Since starting, she’s been wowing us with her eye for detail and her strong work ethic.

Fun fact: I broke my right elbow when I was eight, and ever since I can’t think about elbows or watch someone else scratch and pull at the extra skin around their elbow without getting nauseous.

It’s a well-established fact that Birchbox staffers are beauty addicts. There’s only so long you can work in an office with endless samples of nail polish, mascara, and lipsticks before every new color and item is something you swear you can’t live without. But we’re cutting through all the fat and finding out what the absolute essentials really are. We asked three staffers to tell us the items that they truly can’t leave the house without, and here are the must-have beauty products that they listed:

Glimmering gold accessories are a quick way to give us a touch of sophistication and add a little luxe to our more basic styles. Not to mention, shimmery gold makeup is one of the hottest new spring trends that we can’t get enough of. (Hint: Keep an eye out for a little glittery gold in some of our May boxes).

When it comes to getting the hair color you want, the key is being as specific as possible. Don’t just tell your stylist that you want highlights—explain the kind of look you’re going for (high-contrast and edgy, natural and beachy etc.) and bring plenty of picture examples.
