Okay, I know many of you recieve multiple birchbox subscriptions. Is there a way to ensure you don't receive multiple of the same box?

Thanks

There's no way to ensure it, just try to make your beauty profiles as different from each other as possible while still keeping things true to you.
Exactly.....my two profiles are different, and I still received the same box this month (first time it's happened since I got the second account in July).

 
I just received Box 3 (4 days early!) and the Stila lumizer shade I received was the bronze shade.

PS: If anyone wants to trade Stila shades I'd do it in a heartbeat!

I need to stop editing this post but I just wanted to say that the perfume in this box (Rose Anonyme) is amazing. I'm so happy with my box this month

Just received box 3. Love the luminizer, I got pink shimmer. Should work well on me. The chocolate cover potato chips are amazing! I'm excited to try the Oscar Blandi, my hair is pretty long do I don't usually have much volume. Anyone try it yet and have any tips?

 
I wear my hair with a side part and I lifted my hair up near the part and sprayed the Oscar Blandi stuff there and also ran my fingers through my hair and sprayed the front section of my hair near my bangs but not on my bangs just under them sort of to give them a lift...it worked really well!

 
I finally got a tracking number (which isn't active and I am sure will take a few days lol) but still have the dreaded goop box showing. Update already!

 
Should I email Birchbox? It's the 15th i've gotten NO email.. NO tracking.. NO updates on my box and it seems like everyone else knows what they're getting or already got their box.

 
I'm new to MUT but I've been getting Birchbox for a while now. I finally received my box today (box 3), and I'm feeling so-so about it. I like the luminizer, chocolate, and texturing spray. I haven't tried the transformer yet, so jury is out on that one. I hate the rose fragrance- HATE! But to be fair I'm not a fan of rose usually so it may be lovely for other people. ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I haven't figured out how to post a photo from my iPad yet, but the transformer is pretty small- maybe as tall as my finger. But it's not a foil packet and I should be able to get some decent uses out of it. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'm pretty sure they said they will be shipping thru the end of the week...the storm and all that :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I just checked and got a tracking number, but the goop box is still showing up. I'm not going to worry about it anymore, now that I know it's coming to me for sure. And yes I wish I didn't have to wait so long for mine to come but oh well

Dude.  I hate waiting.  I live a 5 hour drive from where they ship from so it kills me that it takes over a week to get here.

My box weight is promising -

  0.7270
 
Anyone else have trouble with their anniversary code not working? Mine keeps saying the code is not valid.

Also, still haven't received a tracking number for my box.

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is that you can't combine the code with the plus-two pack or any other promotion.

Are you trying to combine it with the Plus 2 pack? Because I know they don't allow you to do that, but if not then I'm not sure!

hmmm, that doesn't really seem like fair compensation.  I wonder if it would be effective to call again and explain that you are not satisfied with the original offer of 100 pts.  Did you let customer service know about the box weight? Seems to me that it would be more fair to receive 200pts but....maybe BB doesn't feel the same way.....I wonder if you are able to escalate the concern to a supervisor or something?
While I completely understand why she's upset (I would be too with a missing item) I must agree that 100 points is a very fair compensation. The entire box cost $10 so the fact that they gave her that back, when only one item was messed up is great. You're not supposed to receive back the items actual value. It would be the same difference if you purchased, let's say a clothing item for $20 even though it's worth is $50 and you had to return it, should they compensate you $50 because that's what it's worth or what you actually paid for it which is $20? Or if you purchased something online with a few coupons and it got lost in the mail, they would only reimburse you what you paid, not what it's worth.

Nope. I haven't tried to purchase a two pack or any other kind or promotion or code. The only thing in my cart is the Shea Terra Black Soap
