Birchbox - The March boxes

[glamourdolleyes]

Has anyone gotten box 4 yet, I want to know what polish seems to be the routine on box 4.

 

[LoveJesslina]

@glamourdolleyes: I've seen a variation of nail polish colors in box 4, but 4/5 times, it's usually As Gold as it Gets.

Box #19 for me. This is my first BB. I'm not wowed so far with the descriptions. Maybe I'll love the products when they finally get here. Depending on the color the nail polish could very well be up for trade.

PERFECT!! I don't want the pink or silver glitter. Thanks! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Help. How can I figure out which box I am getting before I actually receive it? I am new at this. Thanks so much ladies.  I did figure out that you need to review your items ASAP or you lose the points, that happened to me in December ;(

@Ampym: After you log into Birchbox, click the link on the top that says "Box."

Hello All!  I'm new to the forum but have been reading since I signed up for Birchbox in January.  Wanted to post as I was someone who had signed up for the TV box and looks like I am getting box 16.  Which should be fine it has 7 items this month as opposed to my 4 last month.  But one of the items is a repeat (I though BB prided itself on you "never getting the same thing twice") and one of them is for "curly" hair. I have pretty straight hair.  I think in my BB profile I put wavy. 

Also does anyone know why when the new box is not yet posted in your account you cannot review items from the previous month?  I missed out on 20 BB because I waited to review products till I actually used them (was not terribly excited by what I got so was not in a rush to try).

Sorry for the long post and it I did this wrong!

Thanks!

I am getting 2 TV boxes this month; 2 box 4's to be exact. I would be willing to trade you some nail polish or other things that I have received from MyGlam, as I am sure I will be getting doubles of the nail polish. I really wanted to try the Miss Jessie's quick curls, if that is what you ended up getting, or any neon polish. Let me know, you can PM me if you want

Box #1 another CRAP BOX. What part of I HAVE CURLY HAIR do they not get...everything except possibly the polish is going up for trade. Hopefully I can get some oil blotters and curly hair stuff.

How does the trading work? I got the Essie As gold as it gets and would like to trade that for a different essie color or something else!

Bummer! I was really excited to get the TV box when I was seeing everyone else's, and even though I opted in, I am not getting one. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I was really looking forward to the Essie polish and either the LipSurgence or Fresh Lip Balm. 

The upside is that there are 7 (!) items in my box, #16. The pomegranate buffing beads did not sound remotely interesting to me last month, but everyone has been raving about them, so I'm kind of excited to try them out. I hope the shampoo and conditioner are as generous as the C.O. Bigelow samples I got a couple months ago, and not the little packets I have sometimes seen them send. I don't have curly hair, so I would definitely be willing to trade the Miss Jessie's Curly Meringue! I've never done any trading before, so I'll have to figure all that out!  Aaaaaand of course, there's fragrance as always, but when it's my 7th item, I find that I don't mind that much, haha. It seems like it can be treated as the "extra" here, which it always should have been!

I think I'm just going to hang onto my box. I really want to try the shampoo and conditioner. The other products I will probably try, but I may check out the trade thread, first. But thanks for the offer!

Are you willing to trade your entire box for my 2 Essie polishes? I wont know the colors until I get them but from what I have seen the color options are the pink, silver and gold. I really want box 11. 

 

[snllama]

I really wish I could have gotten box #8 or #17 this month.

I still have the TV box #4 up for trades! hint hint

BabyMafalda, 

I am getting a Teen Vogue box even though I didn't want one.  I haven't received it yet, so I don't know my colors, but I might be willing to trade my Tarte LipSurgence for your One Love Organics Skin Savior.  Any interest?  If so, I'll contact you when I get my box and we can figure out if it would work.  I have swapped with SkyLola123 and it went well.  I also swap on Makeup Alley and have great feedback.

I am getting box number seven. I see no point to water cloths. I already have plenty of nail polish, (THAT I NEVER USE) in those stupid pale colors. and I could care less about this shampoo or the 'radiance cream'. the only things I might like is the extra and i like to try perfume scents but this is the one I wanted the least.

The Kerastase is actually REALLY nice! You should give it a shot because even though I have oily/wavy hair it worked wonders on my ends!

So after all of my inquiries into what might be in my box, I've decided not to go look even though It's supposedly posted now. I hope I get mine tomorrow (usually takes two days and mine shipped Saturday.) But what is it with USPS always showing that my package was sent North to Massachusetts when I live in PA three hours South of New York where the boxes ship from? Any way you stretch that, its seems like a waste of everyone's time!!! I really hope I get box number 8 solely for the Stretch mark cream, but I didn't realize they added stretch marks as a concern on the beauty profile until the day before mine shipped, so I think I'm too late for that one. Though if you hear through the grapevine that no one wants it, I will HAPPILY trade it or buy!!! It's sad that at 20 my wants are stretchmark cream over makeup. I want it to be the opposite!!!

Thanks!!

I got box #4 and my polish was "Set in Stones" - the silver color. Love it!

 

[cjeanette]

I got boxes 10 and `18.  I am bummed I didn't end up with a TV box like I wanted, but really wanted that hair powder so I am very excited about that.  That box also comes with the Harvey Prince Ageless, which was in my Dec box.  I love it though so I am not annoyed.  I have been planning on buying it.
