Birchbox April 2014 - SPOILERS

[meaganola]

I got 69 on the quiz!  And now I have a story to go post in the Midsummer swap thread!

Okay I haven't been on the forums in a few days, but did anyone else get 100 points deducted because of an "upload error" ?  It is on my account that I used to code that was accidentally giving people 200 points.  This is very unlike birchbox, who in the past has just corrected the problem and honored glitch.

Yup a bunch of us did. You'll see the convo here and on the Points thread. I sent an email and got it back. But, right now there's tons of issues in flipping points to GCs and using GC/point combos in an order

I tried the Supergoop CC cream from this month's box, and I really liked it!  I wasn't that excited to receive it in my box because BB/CC creams don't usually wow me, but this one seems to work perfectly for me.  I think I'll pick up a full size when I run out of my current stash.

I personally haven't had any issues. Knock on wood. But I did go ahead and canceled my second account. My first box is a yearly. I'm just not having good feelings about birchbox with all that has been going on. I hope they get everything straightened out and I'll resub.

Super late on everything around here, but my box this month came late, but was okay. I like the nyako scrubs and oil, but I'd have rather gotten a deluxe sample of one of their products than three tiny samples of different ones. No biggie, though.  I like the silver liner, and I got the blue Color Club and it's a super cute color. The kind bar was good.

Has anyone tried the Keims shampoo? I hate trying shampoos without coordinating conditioners, but I'm curious if this one is worth it!

I had 100 pts deducted from my 2nd account even though I only got 100 points from the code. I sent a really pleasent FB message to BB and they appologized and gave them back.

It has macadamia, so I'm not going to try it. Plus, it smells weird--like citrus, not peppermint. The only shampoo that ever gave me scalp pimples and horrible itching was Organix Macadamia, so I'm not trying anything else with it any time soon.

I got the Keims last month. It's fine, nothing special. The smell is just blah, which is better than the stench of the no. 4. It worked well. I wouldn't buy it, but having the sample is fine.

I loved the Keims it makes my hair super shiny. I traded for another and bought it. I gave gotten compliments on both the smell and shine. I don't use conditioner with it just hair oil on my tips. I find conditioner was making my tips too soft and fluffy not good with a bob.

I really love the Keims shampoo and its scent. I'm seriously considering buying the full size and the body wash because I like the scent so much.

Agreed. I finally tried my Keims sample when I went out of town this weekend, and its one of the few shampoos that birchbox has given me that has made my hair feel NICE. the rest of them all make my hair super oily. The smell is soooo nice and different! And I also love how it's VERY affordable compared to most of their other shampoos. That is definitely one I would buy.

I think another reason why its a good shampoo for me is because I don't care that there isn't a matching conditioner, I don't use conditioner. Just BP spray post showering.

I didn't like the keims shampoo at all. I have thick hair and it left my hair tangled. I did not care for the scent either.

 

[kawaiiwoofs]

I have 3 samples of that Keims shampoo! I wanna use it but I'm scared to disrupt the peace that is currently a pimple-free scalp ...

I agree. I absolutely love the scent as well. And the price doesn't make me want to cry either, which is a plus.

My hair at least still looks good the day after washing it with Keims, which is more than I can say for the no. 4. My hair was so greasy and gross after using it and the mask.

 

[katyrn]

This is funny. I didn't enjoy the Keims for myself... it made my hair tangled and really did nothing for it. However, I used it to bathe my dog this weekend and it was so wonderful!! It made her smell very good and I would use it again on her. Makes me wish that I had another sample!!
