January 2015 Unboxing (Ipsy vs Birchbox)

I promise this is the last change to my subscription box posts...I decided to split them up by my lower priced boxes (Ipsy vs Birchbox) then my higher priced boxes (ELF Beauty Bundle & Boxycharm) as two separate posts.  I will still do it the same way just two posts instead of one.

Just a heads up, this month was probably my least favorite ever!  It wasn't just horrible but I wasn't jumping for joy at all. Let's get into it and see what I got this month.
