Cute theme. I miss the videos with Katia & Mollie &Haylie though. Hopefully they will be back when Katia returns from maternity.

 
I miss those too. I liked to hear what they had to say about each item. I also miss the new store additions!
I miss that too!!

But overall I feel like they just got me much more excited about the products.

 
So, I just realized that the Caudalie for this month is NOT the same Caudalie for last month... which means I cannot eliminate near as many boxes... boo!! I was a little disappointed in that tiny sample!!

 
I have had eczema my entire life and I am always looking for new products to help with it so I'm really hoping for the Egyptian Magic stuff. Maybe Birchbox could actually give me something that I need haha. I've seen it in the shop before but I just can't drop $38.00 on something that I don't know is going to work. And it's more fun to spend my points on lippies and cute coffee mugs. So crossing my fingers for that sample!

Try Lush's Dream Cream. it is my skin savior. When I came back from 8 days in cancun, the combination of sun, salt and chlorine left me with horrible painful dry skin in patches all over my body. I slathered it on when I got home and it cleared up in seriously 2 days. When i was a kid the same thing happened when I came back from 2 weeks in Hawaii and it lasted for weeks and weeks, I even got meds for it and it still took forever to subside.

I've been dying to try it too. That said, if you like, buy it at costco. I've seen it there and it comes with like a big jar and a small jar for I think cheaper than one jar at birchbox.

 
I tried to read back a few pages and didn't see any...are there any codes going on right now for extra points/bonuses/discounts for subscribing? I had canceled after I got last month with the intent of resubscribing (to earn more points!) and just realized I hadn't done so yet!

I haven't seem any yet, but you might want to keep an eye on the promo thread here because people tend to put all codes in it: https://www.makeuptalk.com/f/topic/120809-birchbox-promo-codes/

 
I love this style of video.  I am in the 'hated the babby voices' camp. I used to just keep pushing the slider forward till I found another product and would skip as much of the rest as possible.
I basically don't even watch the videos anymore.  I just look at the products featured underneath the video and see what they are.  What grated on my about the videos was that whoooole thing where they, like, draaaag out words for, like, nooooooo reason, and like, say like like a million times.  Come on!  You're educated women!  Quit talking like airheaded mallrats from 1987!

 I liked Mollie's videos best because she communicated better.

 
My observation is that the "baby voice" thing is a ... thing ... among NY women of a certain age and socioeconomic class.  I find it ridiculous. I think they (including a couple of my cousins) think it's "cute."  The last couple of videos they did seemed a bit better, but I would also generally watch with the sound off, just to see the items being previewed.

ETA:  And holy early shipping Batman!  I have a clicky truck on one of my accounts too!
