Birchbox February 2014 (SPOILERS)

[Dawn Horton]

I am excited to try new perfume and can't get enough samples!  So send them my way, I would be happy to trade away all my bb and cc creams, nail polishes, and spray hair conditioners for them!

 

[amidea]

not really feb-specific, but i ordered the US weekly box early so i ended up getting a january box, but it never arrived, so i emailed birchbox and they're sending me a replacement january box (which should come right around the same time as feb...)  the person who emailed me said the box might be different than what's on my page and i should let them know when i receive it so that i can review the items for points.  i'm sure this has happened to others before, but do you still review what's in the box that never came?  i already reviewed one product (i already have it) but am wondering if i'm allowed to review the others and just say "i haven't tried it" and get the points anyway...

I'm sure you could but I'd let them know if it were me, I assume you can't get those in the future now to avoid dupes Unless you are glad you'll never get those items lol

I know this has been explained, but I am still having trouble finding how to see the list of possible boxes. Can anyone help? I just joined BB at the end of January with the UsWeekly code. I would love to see this list. 


I don't know if there is a way to do it with the BB app b/c I don't have an iphone and the app isn't available on android yet, but to do it online you go to: http://www.birchbox.com/shop/birchbox-1/February-2014/February-2014-bb1 << That link will take you to box #1. All you have to do is replace the 1 after "bb" with whatever number box you want to see. I think it's up to 61 boxes this month.. P.S. Next month you can do the same thing but put March in place of February in the url /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Oh and P.P.S the boxes aren't "fully loaded" until the 10th so you may only see a few products for each box, but there will be more on there in a couple days.

What! THAT'S AMAZING!! Congratulations! (I wanted to use an awesome emoji here but my work computer blocks them... So imagine the purple dancing elephant doing a happy dance for you right here!) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Ditto... I currently have -10. Ugh. Where is spring?

I'm in the same boat. Both accounts. 😞 But no playing in the snow for me. It's -2 degrees here ......brrrrr.

Ugh!! I could not survive where you ladies live!! I shut down around 12 degrees. Negative makes me want to cry, but I'd fear the tears would freeze!

My friend is from Punxsutawney and he invited me to Groundhogs Day a few years back. Definitely an interesting event. Several people made the trek from places states away just to propose on stage!!! Not my idea of a good place for someone to pop the question but it surely would make an interesting story.

I've always kind of wanted to go! Ha ha. Wonder if anyone proposed every day for a couple days a la the movie Groundhog Day. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I've noticed before when they've told people to review the wing box to get the points. If you're concerned I'd ask the CS rep if that cancels out the chance to get any of the products in that box.

That's actually our standard advice in this situation!  Get all of the points you can as soon as you can.  These things may show up in a later box for you, and then you won't be able to review them at that point -- but they may never come back around again, so you won't have the chance to get the review points again.

TWO Nail polish options this month plus a Zoya in Ipsy! I will take all the polishes please! Highly doubtful I know, I know. But my no buy/low buy the past two months is getting to me and I'm sole relying on my subscriptions to make up for it. haha

thanks for all the advice!  i think i will review - why not?  it's a bummer if it never comes or if this precludes me from getting these in later boxes bc i actually really liked the box i was supposed to get, but what can you do /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

My dream box would have the CR Eyeliner, Beauty Protector Oil, Caudalie Makeup Remover, maybe Harvey Prince? And something else!

And I'm with you all- the next six weeks of winter can just go as quickly as they'd like.  I do not want them around anymore!

Congrats girl!!  That's the leopard one?  The Jouer eyeliner is my absolute favorite- I have it in Fox and I've been wearing it every day since I got it! (Sorry, Inglot eyeliner, I'll get back to you I swear, after my love wears off a bit)

has anyone received the dry conditioner!? I really really want that. I love hair products, but BB gives me too many shampoo/conditioners and not any of the other stuff. 

Yes in Jan box and I love the dry conditioner. My hair is long and very thick and it really makes it shiny and managable

I went and looked at my account today and under my purchase history, its only showing january. Is that what I'm supposed to see right now? January was my first box and i received it last week.

Nevermind. I just got my shipping notice for february.
