Birchbox - The March boxes

[Tulipp]

So I was one of those girls that was opted in for the Teen Vogue box, and I even was e-mailed saying that I was on the list to get one.
However, I got my shipping e-mail confirmation and no where in it does it say Teen Vogue, only to find out in the other thread that it was all .5, when mine was in the .7 range. 
I spoke to the representative Paulina, asking her what happened? She told me that because they had a high volume of people that signed up for the Teen Vogue box, they only
had a limited quantity available, so I think they went off by who had signed up for the boxes first, or did some sort of lottery to figure out how they would distribute the boxes. 

I'm not bitter, I don't mind getting either or. I was just wondering why I wasn't able to get the Teen Vogue Box. 

My March Birchbox weighs - 0.7530
I saw what other people were getting, and i'm pretty excited to see mine. This month's box looks great!

So live chatted with Sonia and she confirmed that I have a TV box on one of my accts, no comment on the other one.  Still no shipping notices for either account though (whining now...)

It's so exciting to see everyone get their boxes!!

I did get my glambag notice though.  So something's heading my way soon! Glambag better be a WOW or it's time to say ciao!

Just got my Birchbox today! I like most everything in it. I will more than likely be putting my nail polish and blotting sheets up for trade, since I don't care for oranges with my skin tone and I already have a lot of blotting papers that I haven't used yet. So if anyone is interested, let me know! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Yes it is. I have never tried it before, but it smells pretty good.

I got my shipping notice on Wednesday, and it had a projected delivery date of March 9th. However, to my disappointment, it wasn't in the mailbox today.

  Hopefully it will come tomorrow.

I'm getting a TV box, which I'm very excited about. All four of the TV box variations have TWO full-sized MAKEUP items (the Essie nail polish and either the Tarte Lip Tint or the Fresh tinted lip balm)! Yes, please!

For anyone who opted in for the TV box and is now regretting it due to regular box envy, keep in mind that there was no guarantee that you would have gotten any of the items that you're coveting. How many times have each of us been disappointed because we didn't get the box we wanted? That's what I was going to tell myself if the TV box turned out to be a dud, so hopefully it will help some of you feel better.

I am interested, I will have 2 Essie's and I will let one go for the blotting papers. Are you interested?

Bummer!  My I got my email on Wednesday and mine is supposed to be here today as well.  I had a feeling I probably wouldn't get it today.  Still waiting and watching for the postman.

Birchbox recycles items in later months, so maybe those of us who got the TV box this month might get some of the products in the regular boxes in the upcoming months? Just a thought...

[LoveJesslina]

I'm hoping your right. I am really quite taken with this month's regular Birchbox.

Also, can someone post a link for the trade thread?

Signed up for the Teen Vogue box, but no tracking number yet for ANY box, while others actually began receiving their boxes yesterday. I also noticed that someone who also opted-in for a TV box got a regular one, despite Birchbox's own comment on Facebook that anyone who opted-in would get the Teen Vogue box. This is my last-chance box, and it's not looking good at this point.

Ooops double post.

 

[Stemarber]

Check out my TV Birchbox! It's exactly the one I wanted /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />



Annick Goutal - Smells okay...probably won't purchase. But happy to have in my bag.
Essie Luxeffects - I got it in Set in Stone. While I wanted the yellow/gold looking one, I'm not one to complain /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
Shiseido Blotting Sheets - Can't wait to try them. Blotting sheets are always good to have.

Tarte LipSurgence in Amused - I already own 5 of these and I love them! Might see if I can exchange the color in Sephora.

Twistband - Got this before in BB and loveddd it. Bought 2 packs from the BB store and use mine everyday. Only have it in black, so this will be a nice change.

ModCloth Promo Code- Nice extra, but I don't know if I'll use it.

Overall, very pleased!

How can we tell which box we are getting?  Is there a way to tell from the tracking number?

 

[Stemarber]

Thanks /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> It was 0.5180 lbs.
