Birchbox February 2014 (SPOILERS)

[Kelly Silva]

Oh good I don't really need another thing to spend my money on, and the LE box doesn't interest me one bit!

 

[tacehtpuekam]

Ah, I think I might buy one. It only comes to $13.50 with my 25% off & I'll actually use all of those things. 

That's so cheap I might not even use points!

 

[wadedl]

Ugh! So disappointed! I really wanted an LE box but nothing interests me.

 

[PrincessDi]

This is my first post so I am not sure if this is where I post but I have been getting Birchbox for over a year and a half and I feel like they are not as good as they used to be. I have been thinking about canceling for the past few months but haven't because I was thinking maybe they would go back to being good! but after a broken bottle of oil, another coola product in the winter and a card with a finger print sample of shadow I think it might be time to face the fact that the boxes are not as good as before and it doesn't look liked get will be good again any time soon, it is time to cancel.

I'd already been playing cart tetris ... I wanted to spend some points, and use my 9 month code.  The box came at a perfect time, and I will use pretty much everything in it /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[gypsiemagic]

I never get emails anymore /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

. I was ok with the cools when I saw it was a BB cream on the packaging, I was like sure, why not. Yeah, it's hardly tinted and then disappears. It's like a silky primer/moisturizer that makes my face melty by the end of the day. Super bizarre. I'll save it for when we go camping this summer, maybe, but it was a let down. I don't like the mascara either.. I've tried it before and tried it again.. No likey.

My thoughts exactly!

And it's $18. Thanks for posting this! This one is definitely not for me. I prefer Birchbox's promotion of products I cannot find down the street at CVS or Walgreens. That's what makes them unique. I don't mind the drugstore extras once in a while in my monthly boxes. But not a whole box of drugstore items. If I wanted that I would buy a Total Beauty or Allure box.

Yeah, this box is disappointing for me. Not a single item I am interested in trying. I'm sure it will sell out quickly because the value is there, especially with a discount code.

 

[Meggpi]

I'll hop on the 'not for me' train.  I do use drugstore products, but I am pretty selective.  With all the 'oil' (silicone) Birchbox sends the last thing I need is an entire huge bottle of silicone.

 

[yousoldtheworld]

I'm a little tempted, but my stash tells me I don't need these things, even at such a cheap price. I don't mind drugstore products sometimes, and when they did the CEW boxes, the mass market was a million times better than the high end box! If the hair oil (which I have way too much of) was replaced with something else, I'd probably jump at this!

 

[katiecoll]

I'm debating getting this box. With my 20% off 3 month code it's a decent deal, even if I only use 3/4th of the box. I probably wouldn't use the Rimmel lip gloss or the CG shine shadow. I really want the John Frieda and the Biore though.... It's in my cart... still thinking. I wonder how fast this will sell out.

 

[LindseyJ]

I ordered the special edition box, but im not really sure why, lol. The only thing that wont get used will be the hair oil though. and I dont need any more mascara, but I'll put it up with my other unopened ones from subs.  I don't mind drugstore products at all. The only stores I have in my town are walmart and walgreens so if I can try something out of these subs and go right down the street to buy it if i like it, then that works for me! Everything else has to be ordered online and i have to pay shipping. I just hate paying shipping, haha. Im still news to birchbox, so can anyone tell me how often they do limited edition boxes?

 

[hrhvittoria]

Finally got around to reviewing my January box items >.> hello, $10 worth of points 8D

 

[kawaiisofoxy]

Le sigh.  Not for me.  My stash just doesn't need any more stuff!  Hopefully they come out with a box of lifestyle and home stuff soon.  I'd be ALL OVER THAT.

That's what I'm waiting for too! I know they are a beauty box company but I get way too much from my regular boxes to buy this LE too. It would have to be some really special beauty products like the La Prairie Glossybox for me to order.

 

[Amby6912]

Man, I was hoping the LE box would be better. Normally LE means a great box. Like with the Glossybox Holiday LE... I love the heck out of my drugstore brands but I was hoping the LE would be some nice, high end stuff. Sorta disappointed it isn't.Oh well, looks like I'm gonna stick with Birchbox for awhile so there will be another one and maybe I'll have more points when that happens! Quick question, whats with all these month anniversary codes? What months do you get them at? Just curious!

 

[hrhvittoria]

How often does BB do LE boxes? Is it an every month thing, or...?
