Birchbox - The March boxes

[MissMonica]

I also use the Suave and I really like it.  The smell took a while to get used to though.  However, baby powder works really well too--I like to get the scented baby powder (lavender or cucumber melon, usually) because I don't love smelling like a newborn. 

The suave is cheap, blends really well, and gives my limp hair some good body.  The baby powder is also super cheap, and probably works a little better to absorb oil, but doesn't add as much volume to my hair.  Be careful with the baby powder though if you touch your hair a lot (I do). The powder tends to stick to your hands and then leave white marks on clothes (especailly black pants).

Birchbox already said that there will be a few different TV Birchboxes going out, just like their normal Birchboxes!

They said yesterday that if you dont have the Teen Vogue verbage in your email, you are not getting a TV box. But this months items are all great, so I wouldnt worry!

My box weighs .5390 but I did not get the teen vogue message on my shipping notice?  Hmm....a mystery.  I guess I will be very suprised when it arrives.

I still have not received a shipping notice on my regular account.

Well I hope I get one that has the tarte lipstain and a nail polish!  **fingers crossed**

Ugh. No shipping notice.

Right, but I presumed that they meant color because they only had 5 items up. But I guess we will all see soon!! Tomorrow for me!

My box was shipped on the 5th and is projected to be delivered on the 9th (tomorrow). This is the account that I opened just for the TV box, my regular yearly account's box hasn't shipped yet. Also, it says my TV box weighs .5800 which seems quite a bit heavier than others I have seen on here.... wonder why?!?

 

[CaliMel]

double post sorry! 

 

[CaliMel]

They put up a sneak peek on their blog. I'm excited about those products and hoping I get one in my box this month. My regular box still hasn't shipped yet, but my TV one should get here tomorrow!

Me neither.  Before they changed shippers I used to get my ship notice on the 3rd or 4th and my BB always came on the 10th. Really not liking this new system.  Luckily I have other subs to have fun with in the meantime. My BA box came today and it's really nice.  I also got my Dermstore order of my Jane Ireland sample travel kit.

Hmmm..... It seems to me like all the "new" items that read "Ship Free" underneath are the items that will be in the March boxes seeing as how all the items in the March box WILL ship free if your purchase them.  Wonder if this is true...

I bought the yellow bottle of the OB dry shampoo. I like it. I tried the Suave version first, and it gave me such a headache. I think Sephora still has a $5 OB dry shampoo if you want to try.

I have the Oscar Blondi dry shampoo and it really didn't work for me. I do have oily hair and when I'm in a hurry I use dry shampoo to clean myself up a bit. I bought the Oscar Blondi dry shampoo (the spray one, not powder) from Sephora on sale, I sprayed it and my hair was just as oily as before. Recently I got the Suave Keratin Infusion dry shampoo from Target, works really well IMO. Even though the scent is strong, I like the lemony smell.

i have the powder oscar blondi dry shampoo and don't care for it.  The scent is very strong, and contrary to some reviews, it did leave a white residue on my dark hair.

Has anyone in the midwest got their shipping notice yet? This is my first birchbox (TV) so I'm not sure when to expect the shipment email. 

 

[redfox]

Off subject but I just found this item listed under Teen Vogue on the Birchbox website.

I also used Suave dry shampoo because I won it from Allure a couple months ago. I like it and it works for my wavy hair. I use it at night so my hair will be okay in the morning. At first, the roots can feel more moist than they should be: they recommend working from the bottom up. I find it kind of intriguing that it says it moisturizers and saps all at the same time.

I'm excited about the TV box!  Mine weighs 0.5370

Also, I won their recent Zoya nail polish custom collection contest on Facebook where we voted for our favorite mood boards! They said they will send the nail polish collection month and asked if I wanted to be featured on FB with a beauty tip.

That doesn't seem TOO far off from the TV box range. Maybe you have a heavier sample in yours that, so far, other people on the boards aren't getting.

I am in Kansas City and I got a notice one one account but not the other.

 

[erinkins]

I'm in KC as well! I'm hoping they just send the new members boxes later. I always have shipping problems. No matter what I'm shipping or where from something is always messed up with it!
