Thanks you all! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I have no idea how I got so lucky, but the trend with my main account seems to be: 1 amazing month then 2 bad months. XD Now if only my boxes will update shipping...

I'm getting Box 32. I really wanted the blush, but this box looks good. I guess since it has seven items (even if they're foil samples) that means I get to do seven reviews and get points for those?

 

[nikkimouse]

one of my boxes still hasn't up dated   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Love the box that's coming to me /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Couldn't be happier....unless I get an extra box like last month! I think they finally heard that I don't use conditioner in the shower and sent me a masque and a shampoo instead. Love! I never know what to do with the matching shampoo conditioner sets.

I got this box and it was waiting for me when I got home! =) I won't be using the masque (it has silicones I can't use) and I can't use perfumes, but I'm decently happy with the rest. I'm actually super impressed with the Sumita so far. I've always had the worst luck with pencils, but after a couple of hours and no smudging. Heck, it's even sticking around in my waterline and that's like unheard of!

Yup! I just did this because I wanted to do the cancel/resubscribe thing with SFBB100, but it's not working for me now. ETA: Ooh, I just tried it on a different canceled account (I had already used it on the account I was originally trying it on), and it worked for 200 points! Now to keep an eye out for another 100-point code to re-reactivate the original secondary account...

 

[chelsealady]

Box 15 on my second account. Not to bad. Not a huge fan of the cologne but I'll try it because it is orange.

And even though I didnt like the box I got this month.  I cancelled my sub and resubbed right away using that code you suggested.  Bam.  200 points.  Now.... What to buy, what to buy /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
OMG!!!! I just reactivated my third sub and got 200 points ahhhhhhhhh. Three boxes in one month... again. XD I thought I was done with 3 box months but this sucked me right back in!

I let my debit card expire and I closed my bank account this month. But I did pre-pay for my April Birchbox in March by on my 1st account. That account got no shipping e-mail and no box page loaded. I'm wondering if it's because of not having valid payment info. on file at the moment. I am going to add a different card, once I get it, later this month.

 

[cari12]

Just reactivated my gift sub that ended yesterday and got 200 points! Back to 4 subs again. I have a serious problem. I also have a serious stash of giftcards too :-D

I have quite the gift card stash as well. So many things I want have been out of stock for so long now. I'm waiting for at least some of it to come back, plus the bonus shop to reappear before I order. It's gonna be a huge one! And my birthday is coming too. Hopefully they get this warehouse transition done soon.

I also got box 27 & box 33 today, box 27 was the aquamarine polish, 33 the breakfast at shade. Box 39 and box 2 left to go hoping for the other two shades!

May is my 21st month on my main account and I *think* that's a anniversary code month so I'm hoping the store is all back up in stock by then!

Those of you who have received the brow gel: does yours have a strong odor? I think it's just the packaging, but jeez, the odor will probably make it throw it out!

I think it has given me a headache.

I just sniffed mine quick and noticed the nasty smell and quickly closed it again. I won't open it again or try to use it while I'm still pregnant, just in case.

My gift sub arrived today. My box contents on the webite actually match the box I got. After the fiasco with the wrong box showing on both accounts in March, I was a little worried. Cynthia Rowley Beauty Eye Pencil Fekkai Technician Color Care Shampoo Color Club Gala's Gems Collection theBalm® cosmetics How ‘Bout Them Apples?™ KIND Healthy Grain Bars The eyeliner is silver. Wow. Like polished silverware. I wasn't expecting it to be so bright and shiny. I swatched it on my hand, but I haven't actually applied it to see what it's really like. After waiting 2 minutes, I rubbed the line I swatched. It came right off. Bad news. I got the Heirloom Pearls white-ish nail polish. It's opaque in 2 coats. I'm happy. The last pearlescent white polish I used needed like 7 coats to be opaque. theBalm ... I do not want to stick my finger in a lip product. Ick. The Fekkai Shampoo smells nice. I will use it. I put color-treated hair on this profile because they might be sulfate-free. Maple Pumpkin Seed? Does it taste good? I'm waiting to eat it for breakfast. I like this box.
