You can at least earn points, I would think you can use them too.
they said in their facebook page that you can also use your birchbox points at their physical store.

i remember the old pop up shops would have full size items and other really, really worth while goodies (no mentions of foils there). so i would *hope* it would be the same -- otherwise, whats the point? I can't seem to find it and don't remember which social media platform they posted this on but i'm 90% sure they said you can earn and SPEND points there. hopefully someone else can back this up!

You can both earn and spend points there. Just be aware the earned points take a few hours to show up (at first I thought they didn't give me the points), while the taking of your points is automatic.
That is one thing about the foundation serum I love so much, it easily matches. But only if you don't put too much on, lol. The first few times I used it I got a little heavy handed in some areas, and when I saw myself in different lighting I had dark smudges. But it sheers out if you put the right amount. I think you're right--that the key is how to use them properly!

I want the concealer too! I tried that in the store this week and I was also quite impressed with it. It's hard for me to tell if it's the right color on my hand though and I hate returning things so I didn't buy it yet.That is one thing about the foundation serum I love so much, it easily matches.

I went to Sephora yesterday and got a sample of the bronzer. It blended well, but the color was a little off, however, I was putting it on with my finger with day old makeup. I think if I put the serum on fresh and then the bronzer with a brush it'll be quite nice. I hope they have it in stock either on line or in my usual store next weekend so I can pick some up. The bronzer must be quite popular for store samples, it was empty, she had to pull another one out that was also half gone about.
I also tried out the no concealer-concealer in store yesterday. At first I didn't really think it covered much. But after a few minutes of it settling on my skin, and looking in a lighted mirror, it looked good. I picked that up, and put a real application on when I got home, and it was great! I really really like the concealer! It is creamy, but not too dry or moist, doesn't cake up on me, doesn't settle into fine lines. It also stays put and doesn't sweat off during a workout (I tested it for myself later last night, lol), and the color is nice. It is the number 2 for light/medium skin. I don't know if there are/will be other shades? I was surprised how well it blended in with my skin tone. I get dark bluish under eyes, and have a yellower skin tone. I normally use Benefit's fake up in medium or RMS Beauty un-cover up in 22. I think this no-concealer stuff would work well for many skin tones as long as you are in the fair-light/medium range (for this particular #2 shade). It is a lot lighter in color than the serum.
Also tried and didn't like the no lipstick-lipstick though. It looked weird and muddy on me.
On another note, I like how my usual store (at the Americana in Glendale) is starting to recognize me more as a rouge member. The last few times I've been in to test stuff out, the lady who usually works the skin care world has offered to get me however many samples I wanted her to make, instead of the usual 3. This never happened before I mentioned being a rouge member, lol. And there is one guy who works the register, who has the memory of an elephant... even remembers the first item I returned with him! He's SO freaking nice and fun, very personable and caring. If he had a red carpet to physically roll out for me, I bet he would.
Has anybody else who is a rouge member noticed anything new/better/interesting (or worse?) as far as in-store treatment lately? ((or not a rouge member...just curious about customer service aspect))
You have to have the original packing slip, unfortunately or it counts as a return w/out receipt if you take it back to the store. I think you can actually do quite a few without getting flagged- I returned a YSL glossy stain and the computer system was acting weird, so even though she scanned it only once/didn't enter in a number of products at any point, the register ran it up as if I was trying to return 34 glossy stains without a receipt ($1,261 worth of lipgloss). All it did was come up with a warning that said I couldn't make any more returns without receipts for 90 days. (obviously they fixed this before I left lol).
The lipstick was just the wrong color for me. Too muddy mauve color, made me look old and sick. I like the concept of it, but I think Fresh balms are better, and have more color options that'd give the same effect the no lipstick-lipstick in theory.
Interesting. Wonder if it's a discount or if it's a points promo? Isn't 4x points usually in august? Unfortunately that's like 3 days before I leave for vacation so money will be tightLooks like there is going to be another VIB Rouge private shopping event coming up on August 3rd. Guessing it will be similar to the one they had back on March 30th. It's not clear yet if there will be a discount or a goodie bag or what, but the private shopping and brand reps seem to be a definite.
