How often does birchbox put out new boxes?

After I get my January box, I'll be up to 300 points again...so I've decided that if the VA box is still available, I'm going to get it. I've been waffling about it forever and can't bring myself to splurge that much at Christmastime for myself, but with 300 points and a code...that I might be able to bring myself to do.

for people that got the VA box, can you tell me what the shipping address looks like? Also, is there something inside the box that would mention who gifted it? i gave it to someone and haven't heard from them. it was delivered and signed.

ladies.......i have purchased 3 LE boxes. Lustworthy items for myself...and I ended up splitting a bunch of stuff for gifts. It was totally worth it in that sense. I'm even contemplating buying another one! THey have a 20% off code, which brings it down to $78. Well worth it, in my book.

I'm contemplating whether or not to get a second Homespun box or not. I used or will use everything in my first one but I also realize a lot of the stuff in it I can recreate rather easily on my own (cookie mix, photo clips... plastic cookie bag).
I gave the Home Sweet Homespun box to my sister for Christmas and she LOVED it! She asked me if I picked the items just for her because she said she felt like the box was made JUST for her. She was VERY excited about the cookie mix. Apparently momofuku is owned by a famous chef that she's in love with, she was just gushing about how much she likes him and wants to eat at all his restaurants, so she's super excited to make the cookies. I am so glad to hear that she loved the box so much!
Anyone else super disappointed in the MAKE palette in the LE box? I love the colors but they don't go on very smoothly and they crease like crazy, even using a good primer. I have normal eyelids- not dry nor oily- and really don't have much issues with eyeshadows creasing on me even without a primer so I was suprised at this. It is too bad too because I do love the colors.
I am also so far not blown away by the Terry balm. I am glad I didn't plop down the chunk of change for the full size. I have so many balms that work just as well, if not better although I do like the scent. The scent smells just like rosehip seed oil.

i love that balm and i think that it will be my new hg balm. i didn't try the make palette yet. i've been under the weather lately, so i didn't get a chance to play with it other than swatching the colors.

I am finally getting around to baking the cornflake chocolate chip marshamllow cookies from the home sweet homespun box...the dough is chilling currently but if the cookies taste as good as the dough does, I'm excited!
YES, the blue is particularly bad with creasing and hard to apply/blend. I thought it was just me!
/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />Okay I was just looking at the Good genes last night and thinking I should get around to try it. It has a few different ways you can use it. How are you using it? As a mask? As a serum? Glad to hear it is so nice. I haven't even looked at the regular size price yet.

Also loving the Tata Harper cheek tint. Perfect shade for me.
I'm really liking that, too. I ran out of my other cream blush right after the VA box arrived, so I picked up the Tata Harper. That will last me a long time, and it's a good color for me.

I was thinking about splurging on the VA box after I got this month's points, but I have decided not to...I just don't need most of it. I wish they'd come out with another tempting box!
(Tempted to get another homespun box because these cookies are amazing).

Okay I tried it last night and was THRILLED it wasn't irritating to my sensitive skin. I think that is why I hadn't tried it yet. So far so good!
I like the tata harper cheek tint too. I hope they come out with an even lighter pink, more like a baby pink, and then it would be perfect for me. They had a contest asking people which color they'd like to see and I think it was between a baby pink and more of a mauve-y color. Not sure which they decided. I wonder if Birchbox is actually going to sell the cheek tint??
