Has anyone with box #1 even received a shipping email yet?

Seriously...check it out. I was the same, always making the 45 minute trip to a large Sephora store instead of heading to the one in town inside JCP....until about two weeks ago. Also, last time I was in, I saw my store had the Supergoop City Serum that's being sampled in this month's BB on sale for $5 for the travel tube, which retails in standalone Sephoras for $20. Not sure if all SiJCP have the same sale items, but its definitely worth a look (even if you don't buy anything and just walk away with some samples!)

I have super friendly ladies at my Sephora JCP, which is where I go. If I can't find stuff there, I buy online. I have to typically ask to sample, but they're always nice and understand the wish to test drive before buying!

I received my shipping email on Tuesday but it has not updated as of this morning!  Ugh!!

I just received my 6 month anniversary code from BB. I was wondering if you can use the 20% off as well as your points? Or can you only use one or the other? I've never purchased anything from their website before, so I'm not sure how it works. Thanks!

I got my shipping e-mail on Tuesday also.  It JUST updated within the hour, and it just left their facility in NY.  I've been checking my mail and getting a little worried my box had disappeared since it usually only takes a couple of days to get to me.  Not cool, BB.

You can always use points, but only one code per order.

Did anyone else with box 3 get their 3 mo welcome coupon and/or box yet (I know there's at least a few people who have both and are at 3 mo). I haven't gotten the box but I have the coupon... I already have things picked out I want, but I want to figure out if there's anything else I want before buying. Mreh.

On the other hand, I complained about not receiving the boscia cleansing gel in the welcome box, and apparently they're sending one! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I know most people would rather get points, but I just wanted to sample the item. Also it means I get 6 items instead of 5, though I only get points for 5, but at least I don't have to count the crappy Tili bag as one the main items anymore

Got my box yesterday, #10, while I'm on the fence about the Orofluido hair oil I do love the scent. Can anyone recommend a perfume with a similiar scent?

I was one like page 36 out of 56 two days ago and then yesterday caught up to 46 only to see that it's reached page 77 today... lol!!!! (I'm really OCD about reading things in order, especially since I don't want to keep asking questions that have been answered in previous posts).

Luckily I had to chips and guac from Chipotle to keep me company while I read lol.

I'm getting box 3 and I've had my tracking number since Friday last week and got my shipping email on Wednesday and typically my tracking never updates (sigh...).

I don't know how to feel about this box... I've never used hair powder...

What are you trying to say BB?! My hair stinks?! lol

I have dry skin/scalp so I don't know if this will help.

I signed up for ipsy for the first time and I'm surprised with their shipping. They use MI too and shipped from NC today (Thursday) and it's already in my city (so hopefully out for delivery Friday).

If you ladies start the Cali box, maybe you could call it MUTbox lolll....

And like avoid some key things:: excessive amounts of perfume, nuts, and self tanners.

MUTbox is a great idea

I would definitely be up for supporting the Cali-box or whatever name it will go by if you are willing to ship to the exotic Midwest

Also, if anyone doesn't want their Eve Lom cleanser and cloth, I would love to try it out! (swap list in signature line)

Well, I am so annoyed with BB at the moment, I am really considering it! LOL 

 

[amidea]

just got my  anniversary code as well. i wish they gave us longer than 5 days to use it or at least sent it out a little later so i could think about whether i want to buy anything from my box

I haven't gotten a shipping email for box 1 yet. I emailed them this morning inquiring where my box is. I'm pretty sure I will receive the box before they actually respond lol.

I emailed them and they said 

Thanks for writing in. It can take 3-5 business days for the tracking to load. If you still do not have any updates by Monday please do reach back out and we'll be sure to resolve this! Thanks for your patience.

Please let me know if I can assist further in the meantime!


So I guess I wait.

I think if they have small sample sizes why not just include two of them per box instead of one (still counting it as one item), they did that for the Caldrea Hand Soap samples.

THAT is a great idea! So logical!!!

Same here...as I was typing the email I was thinking the same thing!  And then I'll feel dumb because they'll be like "What are you talking about?  Your box has shipped already."
