Birchbox February 2015 (Spoilers)

[H_D]

Curses birchbox, first you don't send me my ace PYS email, so I decided to not fret about it and leave it up to chance. Boy am I kicking myself now.

- 100% real mascara

- Camille Beckman body butter

- Dry Conditioner

- tea

- JC perfume

Tea and perfume in the same box :/

I have a enough black mascaras to last me years so will pass that along to my little sis. Super bummed but oh well. Ipsy for once sent me a great bag so the whole month isn't a wash

This looks like a January box.

This looks like a January box.

That's random because I got a January box already. I didn't even cancel and resub this month because there wasn't any codes out there. (Used the feb.2nd expiration box code on my husbands BB man box) hoping it's a mistake and it'll update to my actual box because if I end up getting two "January" boxes I'm gonna be bummed.
Edit: yup, just checked my past samples and it's showing my January box I already received

Review asap in case it's a mistake and changes. You might get double points for the month. It happened to me in November.

@@SophiaRae There are just no boxes in Feb that are even close to this but there was a January box with these items. I am thinking it will change or you just somehow got another January box. Seriously though, I'd take that over my Feb box any day!

I didn't pick a sample this month, and I'm so glad I didn't! I was complaining just this morning about how I need a new beautyblender, and I'm getting one in my box! SO excited. In addition:

Juice Beauty Blemish Clearing Cleanser (kind of boring, but I'll use it)

G&S Body Wash (blech)

theBalm lip gloss (yay!)

BeeKind conditioner (this could be nice or it could be terrible)

Doesn't even matter though, because BEAUTYBLENDER!

Box twins - another great month leaving it up to chance /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I picked the sea salt spray in hopes that it would prevent me from getting the other PYS options since none of them were really that exciting to me. Naturally, I end up with one of the boxes that has all three. I think I might just go back to leaving it to chance next time. No wonder they "sell out" so quickly when they send all three options out at a time. Le sigh

 

[button6004]

Im pretty excited to get the benefit mascara.  I hope I like it more than Theyre Real because that stuff was not good for me.

 

[SneakyBurrito]

I have now forgotten on which account I picked the eye makeup remover because I am getting it on both accounts for which I did not choose the RTR box.

Account 3 (gift sub to myself, expires after this month):

Juice Beauty blemish clearing cleanser (will use)

Eyeko skinny liquid eyeliner (um, I have EIGHT of these already...seriously, though not from Birchbox)

Bee Kind body lotion (will use eventually)

Marcelle eye makeup remover (will use)

Juicy Couture Hollywood Royal (I tend to like their perfumes so this is OK)

Account 2 (may let this one go in a month or two and resub to Glossybox):

Amika nourishing mask (will use)

Sumita Color Contrast eyeliner (I don't have an overabundance of these, though I do hope it's some color I don't already have, truthfully, am not thrilled with pencils in general)

Benefit ultra plus lip gloss (I have too many glosses but OK)

Juice Beauty Green Apple cleansing gel (I'm sure I've tried this before from somewhere but I don't remember what I think of it)

Marcelle eye makeup remover

Account 1:

RTR box

This happened to me last month when I did the cheat to see my box. I didn't realize it wasn't a box that month because we couldn't see all the box combos. I was pretty sure it was wrong because it didn't have my PYS and had 2 products I had gotten before. It changed on the 10th to the box I got. I wasn't able to review the products. I don't think you can review for points until the 10th and it changed before I could review. So hang in there it will change. Do you have the phone app? Mine changed first on the phone app.

I don't know exactly when you can review but my November changed after the box had shipped. I was able to review twice for points. Maybe this was just a bizarro thing that happened in November. It was one of those months where everyone's box went on a cross-country tour visiting every major league baseball stadium before being delivered.

I got this box, too! I would have preferred the beekind body wash and the sea spray for my body/hair item, but I am beyond excited for the beauty blender, so I won't complain. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

What the heck? I still don't have a clicky truck.  Of course I had one the first of January but didn't get my box until the 14th or so.  I did the makeup remover sample but no clue what else is in my box. 

 

[biancardi]

@@Hectors Friend I don't have a clicky truck either and I did the curated box...

 

[nikkiaust17]

just got tracking number today. yay! didnt get it till this morning so just keep an eye on it

*i wonder how small the balm lip glosses are for our samples. not expecting full size and i know they last a long while but that Manna Kadar was pretty tiny lol

I don't have one either on one of my accounts. It hasn't even changed over from January's info yet. I did the sea spray PYS.

I have some questions y'all might be able to help me with. This is my 1st box and my account has the February "clicky truck" showing but I'm not able to click on it because it's probably not updated but should it be by now or is it too soon? Also, I click on the "women's box" link to see what would be in my box but again, there's nothing showing yet so I am assuming it hasn't been updated just like the shipping hasn't been posted yet. However, I noticed on the link it stated in the browser "Birchbox 1" and I remember in the past people were saying that the number should indicate which box you're getting this month. Does this mean I am getting Box #1? And if so, do any of you know the contents in that box? Also, should my shipping and box contents be updated by now or is it still too soon? I figured that mine might be taking more time since this is my 1st box but does anybody know if that's normal or what? I'm still trying to figure out how Birchbox works.

All boxes should be updated and visible on your account by the 10th of the month. No, Birchbox 1 does not mean you are getting Box #1- those descriptors are two different things. All boxes should be shipped out by the 10th of the month. If by the 10th of the month you don't have a tracking number then give BB a call.  There is a FAQ on their website that can help with some of your questions too.

Thank you Buff. It's been a doozy trying to figure out Birchbox. I have subscribed to them in the past and never could figure them out then. I am giving them another chance to wow me. Here's hoping I will like it this time.

 

[TheNewMrsRivers]

Hmm...my cheat link says this:

Laura Geller Beauty GlamLASH Dramatic Volumizing Mascara

PARLOR by Jeff Chastain Misturizing Sea Salt Spray

Marcelle Gentle Eye Make-Up Remover for Sensitive Eyes

Davines MINU Shampoo

Davines MINU hair Serum

Juicy Couture - Hollywood Royal 

Isn't that all of the pick your own sample choices?

 

[Aab09540]

I have been a subscriber for over a year and just now found this website?! What?! When I use the cheat my box shows all three of the sample choices as well! I am hoping this is correct because I absolutely love my box this month! I am also getting a sample of Harvey Prince-Ageless (Love Harvey Prince!!!) and theBALM Lip Gloss! My last few boxes have been underwhelming so I'm pumped to finally (hopefully) receive an amazing box.
