San Francisco now has its very own Build-Your-Own Birchbox location, and it’s conveniently located at the Walgreens flagship in Union Square. Just like their first shop in Soho, you can build your own Birchbox of prestige beauty and wellness products. For $15, you can select 5 mini products, and you can also sign up for a subscription in-store.
The space also has an impressive selection of full size products from brands like COOLA, Sunday Riley, Smashbox, Acure, Embyrolisse, and more. Here are some of my top beauty picks available at Birchbox.
Skin Care Favorites
Makeup Favorites
Hair Care Favorites



This space is perfect for discovering new products and picking up minis for your next trip. The subscription is handy for anyone with a busy schedule and not much time on their hands; the experts at Birchbox will help select products best fit for you based on your preferences and lifestyle.
Have you shopped at Birchbox or had the subscription before? Please let me know in a comment — I’d love to check it out! Thanks for reading, and be sure to check out some of my other beauty content before you go.

Never heard of Birchbox before until now. I will have to keep a lookout for these products the next time I am in SF.
I will be in San Francisco next week and I might just have to make a pit stop! This place looks so fun!
Oh this sounds like such a fun spot!! I love being able to see products in person, I hope they open one of these in a NYC Walgreens too!! It’s like a candy store for beauty and I’m so here for it.
I never heard of Birchbox before but this sounds really awesome! This is an awesome place to make personalized gifts for the upcoming holiday season!
