(SPOILERS) July Birchbox partners with Glamour Magazine

[meaganola]

Heh, I very carefully worked on the order that I placed today until it was an exact increment of $10.  It was a little tricky because I also had a 25% discount on my main account to use, so I actually had to order in increments of 300 points because 300 points translated to $40.  600 points got me:

• RGB Polish in Dew
• Spornette Luxury Cushion hair brush (I'm sadly excited about this:  I haven't owned a real hairbrush since, like, the Clinton administration, when I chopped my hair super short and just kept it that way because it's easy to deal with.  Now I'm too lazy/cheap to get a haircut, so I need a hairbrush)
• Pangea Organics lip balm in Pyrenees Lavender with Cardamom
• colorescience SPF 30 mineral sun protection loose powder

And I still have 655 points left over!  I'm also close to 200 points on my other subs, so I'm waiting until next month once I get those last 10 or 20 points and find out what the August free shipping items are going to be.

That is really quick!  I think I'm going to have to cave and order some for myself.

Just a heads up... I saw a full size GLOSS Moderne's High-Gloss Masque at TJ MAXX yesterday for $16! If you like it, it might be worth checking out!

I got my 6 month promo code and had $30 dollars in points. I bought the Stila Pallete and paid $4.66. I am very picky with eyeshadows I hope I love it!

Which one did you buy?

OOOH, what'd you get!?! I love the leave in conditioner we got last month. I bought a full size and am almost out after one month of use. I'm obsessed.

The Number 4 stuff? I'm also obsessed. I love using it with a sea salt spray because it allows me to keep my curls but get rid of the frizz.

 

[Auntboo]

wow just one week? I ordered mine yesterday I think (maybe the day before) and I'm excited that it'll come way sooner than I expected. How big are the samples, can u post a picture?

Here is a link (I am on my iPad and can't resize them to fit here): http://imgur.com/a/gDi68 The photo is a bit fuzzy - sorry! - but that is a quarter for scale.

That is a decent size. I did notice when I ordered that they are twice the size of the Live In Love sample from this month! And that scent was a disappointment anyway. I also noticed that people are asking crazy money for single vials on EBay. You ladies are so unbelievably helpful!! Enabling but truly helpful. Thanks for sharing info!

This is what I love about Birchbox. I had the tea mints missing from my box. Even though it was just a lifestyle extra, they are going to send out another to me and even apologized for the delayed response. Their customer service is fantastic, so glad to be a part of their wonderful subscription service. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Is anybody else absolutely in love with the Harvey Prince Eau Flirt or Hello samples from this month?  I got one in each box and I'm now trying to track down the cheapest way to buy them!

Yes! I am loving the Hello too, I just bought some with my points and 3 month discount yesterday. Smells soooo good!

Today I got a reply with an apology for taking so long to write back. The writer said that not everyone got Glamour boxes this monh. I'm more ticked that they said I was getting it than anything else. Did anyone else get a July Birchbox that's NOT a Glamour box?

That;s crappy cause I remember when they were promoting it I thought they said everyone who was a birchbox sub would get Glamour.

I know I'm totally obsessed with the Number 4 leave in too! I ordered that from my 2nd account. From my main account I ordered the Num. 4 hydrating shampoo and conditioner. 

I have samples of the clarifying shampoo and reconstructing masque and those are totally awesome too! I have to thank BB for introducing me to this line. I'm starting to like it better than Kerastase. Kerastase loses effectiveness over time and I think the chemicals dry hair over time. I actually get allergies in the shower with chemical ladened hair products too. This stuff is natural stuff that works unlike some natural hair products out there. LOVE IT!!!

I got a July box, too, for my second box. It was okay because it gave me a bunch to trade for other things I want, but I was definitely hoping for a Glamour box.

Let us know if you like it.  I own the "In the Garden" palette and I really like the colors. The shadows seem to be nicely pigmented.

I'm too curious, I had to order it too. I know NaunNegotiable was saying she figured it was lost so I hope she finally received it.
