Men's December Birchbox Review

@meischase Scratch 'N' Stef+Birchbox is for women and real (metro) men. Stef, the wonderful person that she is, gifted it to me for my thirtieth birthday. Bless her heart. Here are the contents of the men's December Birchbox, thoughts and review included, of course:
Men, if you use or know what an alternator is (not the one in a car), chances are your boyfriend bought it for you. I hate hairspray, but this one surprised me. The hold wasn't too stiff (pun intended). It lasts all day, and the tiny sample bottle is cute.

This is not a perfume. It's cologne. And it's a damn good one, but it's not worth $70-85. I'm cheap and already married.

Full disclosure, I don't use face scrub. This product is plant-based. Kudos for that. However, the instructions use the word, "dollop." It smells nice, though. 

The winner of the Men's December Birchbox. Italian-imported shaving cream with eucalyptus and menthol. It leaves your face tingling. I generally go three or four days between shaves but found myself shaving daily.

This is a nice, stylish apron with useful pockets, but seriously, who's gonna pay $34 for an apron? Not me.

This little guy was quite the bonus. With a hint of rum and bourbon, this candle had us feeling like we were having dinner in a 50s jazz club. Enter Sammy Davis Jr.
