Birchbox April 2014 - SPOILERS

[Meggpi]

Well the thing I was most excited for this month was getting a duplicate sample of the Camille Beckman (so I could get compensated), only to realize I received hand therapy last and this is body butter. I've got the little box envy demon on my shoulder, lol. Love to try the brow gel though!

first month, that's kind of sad. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Definitely check out the swap thread, if you haven't already! I'm sure there will be other people doing full box swaps

My account still hasn't updated, I've never had that happen on the tenth. I did order the birchbox plus water bottle, could that be why? Anyone else on here order it?

So I literally wept when I saw my box. This is my second punishment box in a row and one of the products doesn't even remotely match my profile and another is for a brand that I reviewed HATING last month. Sumita eyeliner - whatever. it'll probably not be plum Paula's choice anti-aging hydrator - meh. Miss Jessie's Transitioner's Magic - this is a product for ladies with relaxed hair transitioning back to their natural curly hair. WTF, birchbox?! Gilchrist & Soames body gel - I completely slammed the shampoo and conditioner last month. So pissed this is in my box. Birchbox will be hearing from me this month. I never complain to them but this box is 50% wtf.

Pretty sure I got a punishment box....All I wanted was n eyeliner! So disappointed

 

[disconik]

I think it's frustrating when I see a lot of you with multiple boxes getting dupes of something I just want one of and the fact that I have pms that is setting me off but I seriously can't stop crying. I guess my work and life stress is getting to me too. Ugh. Sorry about venting.

Box 26 . . . not sure how excited I am. Anyone now how big the nyakio samples are?

Ack! Neither one of my accounts got the Balm. Again! I'll never get to try these apples!!!

 

[lorizav]

I was so excited about getting the davines until I looked at the box pics and they're packets, not the nice size bottle they sent last time. Awwww and I still didn't get the balm blush on either account. Maybe next month

I may be excited about it, depending! I really hate foil/card samples.

I'm getting Box 17 - and I'm pretty happy with it! I didn't get the CR eyeliner email so I'm curious which color I'll receive. I like the No. 4 products I've tried before, so hopefully these will be nice too!!

Of course, I'm currently at 149 points, so I need to wait another month to order something so I'll get that 1 extra point for $20...argh!


If you are on the month-to-month sub, you can always cancel and then restart the sub immediately--it is a quick way to get ten points.

The 10th of the month has become one of my favorite days of the month.  I even have it as a recurring event on my agenda - Birchbox Reveal Day! - like it's some big monthly holiday - ha!

Lol!  It would be my luck that I would get charged twice for April!

...what about upgrading to the yearly Subscription?  Would that kick in the 110 points?

 

[vogliadivintage]

I got box 18 and 22

Excited about the polish. Curious about the brow gel. Will probably trade the Davines and Shea Terra since I already have a big bottle of it along with the pure black soap powder form. Shower gel? Hmm... The other things are nice probably. They're just not the Balm!! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Is there a trade thread yet?
