She then proceeded to tell me that they'd like to use it in their 3rd Anniversary video to be aired on their YouTube channel and to run in Times Square. I guess they did this last year. Some sort of video mash up or something. I'm new to all this stuff and thought that it was kinda cool but I'm a bit leary. I mean, it IS Birchbox but there's a waiver. What do you guys think? Anyone do this last year? Oh, and oddly enough, I do rave about Birchbox but it was right after Sandy and they left out a sample and I slammed them on it?! Lol.

I'd say there's a chance that they might not feature your *entire* video, but just part of it! Either way, I wouldn't worry. I think waivers are pretty standard with most agreements but just make sure you read it and that it's something YOU'RE comfortable agreeing to. I obviously have no idea what the waiver says but I'd imagine it's just a standard procedural thing.

And congrats :]

On the discussion of the mystery pack... I've been hoarding my points for the Kerastase and decided to just go ahead and order it. Well I found the promo code Comeback20 and for some reason it worked. (I've never unsubscribed.) Since I had the code I picked up a few more items to get free shipping, and the mystery pack. Also was debating ordering because I'm college girl broke right now, but was too good of a deal to pass up. Just thought I'd share. 

 (Also, sorry about the copy and paste, couldn't figure out how to screenshot.)

Nuance's lights, action camera eye trio (full size) and jouer foil samples. ...pretty disappointing. Nuance is a cheap, poor quality makeup (I didn't even know birchbox carried this) Oh, FYI my order was $95

Birchbox put out an entire Nuance box a couple of months ago.

IT'S AUGUST! OFFICIALLY!! 

I feel like I have been waiting for August for ages! (Maybe because I turn 21 in 11 days...

) But really, I feel like the summer has hit a lull, and August is the end of that lull. Bring on the August BB!!

I must not be skilled at bb hails yet. I didn't know I could use multiple codes for free stuff!

u can only add one code but some codes are automatic. you can stack one code against the automatic ones. for the tibi bag u did not need to add a code to get it for free. all u had to do was hit the purchase target, add the bag to your order and it automatically was deducted. same with free pick 2.

I actually got the Nuance box and have, much to my surprise, have used everything in the box.  The body cream is actually very good (I LOVE it) and the hair care products are good too.  I got that eye trio in my box, but in a champagne color with a black liner and a white highlighter.  While I was not impressed with the liner, the creme shadow is actually pretty good as a base- I put a primer on, then a dab of the creme shadow, and then layer a powder on top and it stays put!  Give it a shot- maybe use the creme shadow as a liner?

Ok- so I just checked the status of my BB order I placed earlier this week.  It went out and said it was going by 2 day priority mail.  It left Trenton, NJ on Tuesday the 30th...went through not one, but TWO sorting facilities in Kearny and Philadelphia on the 31st.... I check my tracking, knowing I was supposed to receive it today here in Chicago.  Guess what?  It went BACK to New Jersey- it is now in yet another sorting facility in Jersey City.  

Something tells me I am not getting my delivery today.

Just got a theBalm nude 'tude pallette for $18 (half price!), a hot mama blush for $10 (half off), and a best of haute look beauty bag for $20 (and it contains a FULL SIZE SUKI SCRUB!) --- all for $55!!!

Woman after my own heart! I bought the same except for the blush. I can't wait to have Suki back in my life (plus some other goodies to play with, for less than just buying the Suki scrub alone!). I was going to buy the Nude palette from BB last month, and I'm so glad I didn't! Got it for a steal with this sale.

 

[jannie135]

guys... i bought the balm jovi, meet matt(e), nude 'tude, frat boy blush (set me over 100 for free shipping since I was 2 bucks away) and two beauty bags. i'm going to die tomorrow from broke-i-titis if the MUFE stuff is amaze-balls. *sigh*

 

[AshJs3]

I got the bag with the Suki scrub too. I couldn't resist! I don't normally care for theBalm so I didn't look at that stuff until after I'd already ordered. I wish I would have gotten the Mary Lou-Manizer stuff too. Darn it! Maybe it will still be around for the MUFE sale tomorrow.
