Check birchbox.com/aces

Some people who haven't gotten the email yet have checked the page and saw at the top of the page that they qualified.

This aces thing is confusing.  I have had the account since June 2013, have 880 points.  So i  checked my end of 2013 balance...it was 587 but not an ace?

Hopefully they will publish some more info.

THANK GOODNESS I  don't have to hunt through the "free shipping" section (which disappeared a few months ago.  I was bummed til I saw the Aces info!  No wonder!) to find *something* to add to make the order ship free! Yayz!!

Ooooh, I wonder when our "Ace Anniversaries" are.... free gift!  More Yayz!!!
There's a trick to finding it!  It's not in the dropdown menu or main page any more, but there's a link to it on the left side of certain "featured" pages, like the Bonus Shop and Birchbox Exclusives.  Or just go here:  http://www.birchbox.com/shop/featured/free-shipping

I want them to update more too! I went through all of what's up and I'm only eligible for 12 boxes and 7 products as of right now.

I think they're doing it the way Sephora is doing it. They're giving everyone who's gotten 500 pts ace service for 2013, as the unofficial qualifying year. >: And everyone else who's reached 500 last year will get it for the rest of this year (2014) and 2015. Everyone who hasn't yet but gets to 500 pts will also get it for the remainder of this year and 2015. (...?)
 
I think the only confusion is if 2014 is the qualifying year for extending it until 2016 for people who got 500 pts in 2013. I think the answer is probably no.

I am qualified for the aces program on my main account too! So excited! Free shipping on any order any time? Yes please!

No joke. I'm slightly embarrassed by the amount of times I've checked on box 46.

Yep. And I may also check box 3 to see if there's more than the BeeKind lotion now.

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" />

[@]ashleylind[/@] How does the silver Physician's Formula liner work for you? I have black, purple, green, blue, and brown. None of them will stay on my waterline.

I think I can get it to stay on for about 4ish hours. It's the shortest amount of time out of any of the brands I have, but I didn't know if it was the brand or the fact that the silver is so light.

Ah I'm off by approx 1 box for Aces haha.

 

[ScoutSays]

I will take ALL of the CB body butter they have in stock. If my box came with only that, I'd be happy. lol.

Just received my official Aces e-mail! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Okay.. now time for a nap before work. Yay night shift. *sigh*

 

[bluturtle]

I just emailed BB to see what's the difference. It doesn't seem fair that some were counted from Jan 2013, and others for only 2014. I know I will qualify in a couple of months, but still...it irks me when there appears to be a sliding scale...especially when they haven't finished updating the FAQs section yet.

I just received my Aces e-mail on my first account (I have three--all of whom should be qualified).  Hi, my name is Puppymomofthree and I have a Birchbox addiction!
