Birchbox Man: Get it for your Man this Valentine's day: January 2014 Review

Thinking of getting your man a Birchbox Man Subscription for Valentine's Day? I say go for it! Birchbox Man cost $20 per month and Birchbox Women cost $10 a month, and I'm thinking that the $10 difference makes a huge difference in quality.

The quality of Birchbox Man is far superior to the women's subscriptions and I am a bit jelly that my man gets better grooming material than I do. I stole Allan's man box this month so that I could blog about it haha. See homies I got yo back! You get to see what Allan got before he even gets a peek at it. Allan could say what he wants but, I think this month's box is great for him because they include products that he really needs, and/or are super useful. Also, you can see that all of Allan's samples are at least 1.0 oz and products that come in Womens BB end up being like .05 - .25 oz and come in shitty packets.

January 2014 Birchbox Review - Thumbs Down


No Bueno Birchbox. Ok so I'm a bit disappointed with this month's selections. I was hoping for something more new and innovative than Shampoo, Conditioner and Burts Bees lotion. I have a fear of missing out so I am hesitant to cancel the subscription but, I will surely terminate my subscription if this keeps up. I am happy to support new/up and coming beauty brands, but I am not impressed that they sent me a box with with brands that we have all grown accustomed to. I have received 16 boxes so far, and hope box 17 will be better than this one.

La Soirée @ the Union Square Theatre - Best Party in NYC

Keep the children at home! While incredibly funny, La Soirée is a naughty show that straddles the line between Burlesque and Circus.

via theater mania

Allan surprised me with tickets so we caught the Friday 10 PM showing in Union Square and had a blast. I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but I ended ooh-ing, ahhh-ing and laughing the entire show. From juggling to hula hooping, it has a circus like aspect to it, but each act is full of charisma and humor making the show more dynamic than the usual circus-like freak show spectacle. The burlesque aspect shines through via the costumes and more so when two english gentlemen performers strip down to their underwear after their acrobatic set. The show is also interactive, where some acts were fulfilled with the help of audience members even if audience participation meant being drenched with water by the sexy half naked man performing his acrobatic set in a tub.The hardest thing about capturing this experience for you all, is that they wouldn't allow photos. Luckily, La Soirée has their own instagram so I am going to use their social media platforms to share my experience with you! I am not going to describe each pictures and ruin each act, but you all get the gist. Go see the show! Average show runs around $96.95 for a general seat ticket. General seating is first come first serve, so be early for prime seating. Posh table seating give you and your partner a private table seating and although they are behind general seating, the height is elevated so the view is still pretty great and the tickets are around $137.95. It's a great date spot so plan your next with La Soirée
