Birchbox April 2013

[sarahmatz]

If it's the one I saw, I'm pretty sure she Kat posted products she loved from past birchboxes. (Zoya, ageless, Oscar Biandi hair thickener, eyeko, a lace twistband, and some others).

Oh darn, I was wishfully thinking the boxes would be that big this month 😔

Interesting sneak peeks this month! At first I was very

....then I thought about them and I was

I'd be super happy with the Cargo Blush, the Caudalie Divine Oil looks interesting, Youngblood Anti-shine Mattifier YES, Stri-Vectin-SD not so much, Ojon meh, and Nexxus meh.

Who knows! It's a very healthy feeling box...totally makes sense with their collaboration with Women's Health lol!

I really want the Ojon. Seems like an interesting box this month. Hopefully I don't get a dud.

 

[l0ser_dust]

I've been super satisfied with my past two months of Birchbox after a really long dry spell of blah boxes before that (been subbed almost 2 years, so duds are inevitable...) Here's to hoping my great boxes continue into this month 

 

[bluemustang]

Oooohhh, please get the strivictin.. Oh please oh please oh please... Lol

Woo, I would love the Cargo Blush, Ojon Conditioner,the No4 Non Aersol Hair Spray, Youngblood Mattifying Balm (because it looked like the sample was also full size) and the Nexxus Conditioning foam (if the Women's health beauty routine article includes all samples products, as it seems to have a lot of overlap.) 

I thought the Youngblood sample was full size at first, but I think the little packet thing to the left of it was actually the sample. I was kind of confused by that presentation, though, so I'm not sure.

It looked like the box the compact came in.

I think it's a little compact sample but the compact is made from cardboard/paper. I have a MUFE mini compact sample and it looks like the one in the video. The outer part is paper so you flip up the cardboard/paper lid and it is a plastic inside (flimsy-ish) and a little metal disk of product sits in it. I think that's the type of sample we might be getting since Youngblood products have been in boxes before and they've been sample sized so Id expect a sample size of the mattifier.

I hope I get the Youngblood Anti-Shine Mattifier since I've been wanting to try it for a while now, and the Ojon would be nice too. Don't want the Nexxus since the company just sent me the exact sample for free.

I'm feeling the exact same way!  I was the happiest I've ever been with my boxes last month.  I wonder what this month will bring...  I wouldn't mind getting anything they featured except for maybe the mattifier or Nexxus since it contains silicones.

Nothing specific I'm super excited for, but I would love the blush since I am soaked at work by animals. Water resistant is my BFF.

Just FYI guys so you dont' get your hopes up, from the spoiler video description:  

Quote: Due to production delays that occurred after this video was filmed, Cargo will not be included in the April 2013 Birchbox. We apologize for the inconvenience. We are excited to have Cargo in upcoming boxes!

Ok. I need some advice. I cancelled my BB sub late last year, and I've been contemplating resubbing lately. So I got an email today that said if I resub by the 15th I'll get April's box. Should I do it? I really miss the points system, and the samples the last couple months seem to be pretty good. How has the service been the last few months? I think my last box was November.
