LOL...Yes, that's how promo codes work on all websites! I'm VERY familiar with using discount codes. I'm just assuming I'm not allowed to use BBSPRING because I used it in February, and the system's recognizing BBAFF as the same thing. Earlier this month I'd even tried to make an order for some self-tanner on Soap.com (which is affiliated) and it told me I wasn't allowed to use those codes because I'd used my one chance already. I emailed customer service, but no response so far. I did notice in the past couple hours that there's suddenly a $5 credit on my account. I have no idea where that came from.

Hello! Long time lurker here, just wondering if those of you who used 2 codes placed your order before Sunday? I noticed Sunday that it wouldn't allow me stack the BBSPRING code with any other code. It would allow me to stack bbsocietymar with a $15 off $75 code, but I got that "one new customer code per household" nonsense message if I tried to add BBSPRING. I finally contacted customer service and they issued me a $15 credit because the BBSPRING code does not list it is a new customer code in the fine print. BBAFF probably doesnt either. I ended up getting $45 off a $75 order which was pretty amazing! I would suggest calling customer service, beauty bar has excellent customer service. Edit: BBAFF Is actually only for first time customers, But I can assure you BBSPRING does not specify.

 
I agree, they are pretty great. Anytime I have had an issue/inconvenience they OFFER a credit to my account. I dont even have to ask for it. I have gotten one for 5.00 and one for 10.00

 
I literally emailed BeautyBar five minutes ago and already got a response. Here is what I was told regarding BBSPRING:

"The promotion BBSPRING cannot be combined with any other offers or coupons. We do apologize that you can't use both codes. If you can break your order up into two orders you will be able to apply both promotions. If you have any problems with these promotions, just give us a call. We can explain the restrictions and what the coupons are for much better over the phone.

If you have any further questions, comments, suggestions, or concerns, don't hesitate to contact our Customer Care team at [email protected] or at 1-762-7123. We are here 24 hours a day 7 days a week to help with anything you may need. Thank you for shopping atBeautyBar.com!

Really?



 
Seriously?! I'm tempted to send them that screenshot and be like, "TOLD YA SO!". Its just weird that it'll work for some people, and not for others.

 
Speaking of Beautybar... just saw my bank account was charged for April already.

I say go for it.

 
The email with all the beautybar, soap.com, wag.com etc spring coupon codes states BBSPRING BeautyBar: Offer expires 4/2/2012. Offer redeemable once per customer. Not combinable with Beauty Bar new buyer discounts. I don't think BBSOCIETYMAR is a new buyer discount..it doesn't specify that anywhere...maybe it is?

I hate to argue with them, because honestly, I'm not really looking for anything in return. I just don't think its fair for some people to be able to stack coupons while others can't. I sent them the screenshot to show that, obviously, some people are able to stack that coupon. We'll see what they say :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
It's not so much as arguing with them but to find out why some people are able to stack while others can't.

 
Seems like everything about how BeautyBar runs is kind of inconsistent. I STILL haven't gotten a response to my email earlier this afternoon, in which I mentioned that dozens of MakeupTalk.com members have posted that they successfully stacked the coupons and used them more than once...unless I should assume they thought not replying and adding a $5 credit to my account would suffice and get me to place my order?

And yeah, my April Sample Society box billed today, too.

 
Ok! Here is the new reply I got. Sooooo, in other words, they don't know why some people can stack and others can't.

"Thank you for your reply.  Promotions will vary, with some being stackable and others not.  There are times when two promotions which are not supposed to be stackable, can be done, due to a glitch.  Unfortunately, there is no clear and easy way to determine which is which, other than the details of the promotion in any stated details.  The other way, of course, is when you go through checkout itself.  It will tell you then what can and cannot be used with another promotion.  If there is some conflict or confusion, we are here 24/7 by phone or email to help clarify. 

Overall, we are moving toward Rewards based promotions.  With Rewards Programs, if you order a lot, you get points which translates to savings.  That process is much cleaner, clearer and most fair.  You can expect to see this being what we offer in the near future.  Until then, if you have any additional questions or concerns, feel free to call us at 1-800-342-7377, or email us at [email protected]. We are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week."

 
I was just billed as well.

And sorry they haven't responded to you. They've been responding within 5-10 minutes of the emails I've sent them back and forth tonight. Seems odd.

All this talk of codes being stackable prompted me to go browse their site. A little looking around and trying the codes turned into this:



Obviously, I have no ability to control myself

And as you can see, I was able to stack the codes. (Both shown under "Promotion discount".)

 
I was super excited at the thought of trying this program that I stalked the site daily for openings after my hubby forgot to buy it for me to valentines day-he said he was going to just slipped his mind

 lol. I even signed up for notifications to make sure I was first in the know as soon as new subs opened. And then I dreaded the day when everyone got their first box because I was sure I would regret not getting in on this new subscription-backed by allure nonetheless! But after reading what I have on here-and seeing everyone's pics of what they got in their boxes I am glad that I didn't sign up and that my hubby didn't sign up for me! Cause I am looking for more makeup that skincare seeing as my skin is very reactive and I already know what works! Hope everything ends up being great in the future for those of you who did sign up and are still signed up! Can't wait to see what April's box will be like! Is anyone hoping for more skincare or more makeup?

 
I finally got around to trying the Ren mask last night. I like it but felt it was a little drying to my skin. I just went ahead and applied my night cream to add some moisture back to my skin. I liked the tingling sensation I felt after I applied it to my face to let me know it was working. My skin immediately felt tighter after I rinsed it off. I decide to take advantage of the promotions and purchase the full size! I applied bbsocietymar and bbspring which gave me $30 off! I ended paying $25 for a $55 item! I tried the bbaff code but that one didn't work for me. Code giftbb worked but it can't be combined with any other offers. I'm so tempted to go shopping and look around on the site for more goodies, but I'm trying to be a good girl. I can't wait to see what we get in April's box!

 
I am a little bummed that the "hints" for the April box don't indicate any makeup products.  I am overrun with skincare products.

 
I'm a little disappointed about no makeup, but as long as the truly deluxe & full sizes keep coming I'm not going to complain ;p
