I got that same Perks e-mail! This is quite exciting... with free shipping always, I'm much more likely to keep my subscription for the points! I'm now happy I did so much shopping in the BB shop this year!

Agreed! I can always get down with new perks.

I currently have over 500 points, but I've only been subscribed 3 months, so maybe you have to be subscribed for a certain length of time.

Possibly. Or they're rolling out the email in waves.

Here's the link for it.

Oh here's one portion that might explain why some haven't qualified

I see that the birchbox shop sells some it cosmetics. Do you think its likely that they'll sell their matte eyeshadow palette anytime soon?

Hrgh. Confusion? I got it on an acct I've been subscribing and canceling the subscription for, and basically only had 3 active months of boxes since 2013. I shouldn't complain... @_@ Birchbox... sure knows how to win us over XD

I still have likek 6 months of Sephora Flash left, but Sephora's perks haven't been interesting me that much so maybe I'll switch to BB as the primary shop.

Oh cool, the link tells me how many points I have earned to date. I was kind of wondering about that. And I always get emails about 4 hours after they are posted here.

I think it must be waves. I got it on one of my accounts but not the other one yet.

Okay I just re-calculated and my example isn't good: I didn't start my second account until later in the year so I only accumulated 411 in 2013. So I guess I won't get it on that account. Not sure... but it's pretty easy to accumulate 500 pts/year so I'm assuming anyone who does reviews would get it?

Hmm.. I haven't had any 'sorry' points added. Maybe I'll get one soon. I'm on a no-buy, so that free shipping isn't going to help me right this second. lol.

Same boat as you. But as soon as I get a nice stash of points going, I want to get the BP oil and some other goodies. So hopefully sometime around June I'll be doing a big haul!

I love my BP oil, I'm allowed to replace it if I run out, but I've been trying to just trade for lots of samples /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm trying to save all of my BB points until Christmas and have a big splurge. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

After seeing the green inika liner swatched a bunch of places, I had to get one and while I was at it, I grabbed the plum Sumita one to try out something other than my usual black or brown. I liked both but the purple Sumita is soooo nice. It goes on so well and is a great color. I hope the April box has the lime green.
And by the way, this is my first post. I subscribed in February and stumbled upon this site looking for some info on BB and now I have 4 different subscription boxes. So thanks for opening my eyes to subscription boxes.

I just got the Inika in a swap. I swatched it last night and am so excited to use to today! It looks so pretty.

You ladies have definitely given me eyeliner courage (well, really makeup courage). Before I became a subscription addiction in October, I was a creature of habit and had been faithful to Almay's dark gray liner. (I may have been using it since high school). Changing beauty product brands just really stressed me out.

Now I have silver (Physician's Formula), blue (Chella), purple (Butter London), green (Inika) and black (Eyeko) – and I'm loving each one and even playing around with liquid liners.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
