What color was your Mally eyeliner?  Mine was sailor.  Looks nice, but I already have one in that color!


Mine was Sailor too. I'm on the fence about keeping it.

Yes it affects You if you cancel. I cancelled one month and joined right back and I had to pull teeth to get that keychain.

I'm just going to forget about the anniversary gift. I feel like I'll just end up disappointed if I keep thinking about it.

I was going to save my points until next month but then they sent me a 16 month anniversary code which is pretty random. They really know how to get me to spend!

I got that email too. If they REALLY wanted me to spend my points they would have included a 30% discount code.

I received a different box than what my account shows. I wrote birchbox and told them so I can review for points. I am still waiting for a reply. Anyways I know this has happened to other gals on MUT and I was wondering how birchbox usually handles it?

that happened to me a year ago and they gave me 100 points for the wrong box but never sent the correct box out. however they let me keep the wrong box which was a punishment box. the correct box was an awesome box and i would've preferred that box over the points.

The box I got is ok but i preferred the one shown on my account. I guess I'll wait and see

So birchbox finally got back to me about the completely wrong box they sent me- I got a generic excuse of "it was a glitch when we were loading the product list to your account"- and they "fixed" it by just changing the account picture to match the punishment box I got.  No offer of points or sending the correct box.  Hell, if I'm going to get stuck w/ a completely wrong box- at least give me some extra points to make up for it. Uggghhhhh!! BB! gggrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

Milwaukee! Holla

I think there needs to be a mid-west support group. Milwaukee is a great place but it isn't a high profile city. Many Chicago peeps have weekend places here for a get away from the city.

I also got a box completely different from the one shown that I was suppose to get. Tiffany (Customer Service) said they will send out the correct box if they can. If not they will compensate me. I think that means some points would then be credited to me?

Hey all!  

Any suggestions on what to purchase full sized on Birchbox?  
I have a coupon code I want to use and was wondering what everyone's favorites were as of late.

Thanks!

Well not knowing exactly what you are looking for, I will share some of my favorite purchases from BB.....the Balm- MaryLou Luminizer, the Balm- Put a Lid on it (eyelid primer), beauty protector spray, skin soy body whip in poppy fragrance(awesome body lotion it's $27 but the literally give u a huge tub of this amazingness!), Caudile divine oil (this stuff is great and it's only $9 for the small one so its perfect for getting over that $35 mark), eyeko skinny liner, Amika curly hair creme ( my HG hair product), Benefit Hoola bronzing powder, and Fresh lotus face cream. Wow. I went through all my purchases and these were just my favorites. Me thinks I need rehab! Happy shopping!!!

Adding to this...Depending on what you use/like: beauty blenders and Benefit's "They're Real" mascara, plus the microderma mitt, Orofluido, Juice Beauty green apple mask. These are all items I'd have a hard time purchasing with cash but a much easier time purchasing with points and greatly improve my make up routine. Birchbox also has nifty stuff in their home and food and lifestyle sections if you are experiencing beauty product overload like I sometimes do.

People save up for a clarisonic. Since I have one, I'm planning on splurging on a full size of folle de joie.

Suki foaming sugar scrub is a must. Mirenesse glossy kiss in romantic kiss is a great nude lippie. These are just a couple ideas.
