Is the tarte lip tint a twist up or do you have to sharpen it?

Hey, y'all! New to the forums and so excited!

I LOVED my box - I think I got box one, though I'm not sure how you know entirely? I got the set in stones essie polish, which I adore. I promptly added it to the essie polish I was already wearing for a nice accent nail. I also got the lip tint in joy. I wasn't very pleased with this at first - orange? - but it looks MUCH better on and gives my lips a nice peachy tint. I already have blotting papers from e.l.f., so the addition I got in my box wasn't too exciting, and I don't think the twist ties will work in my hair.

I also got the french perfume, but how do you spray it/open it? I push down on it and nothing happens. What am I missing here?

I LOVE the perfume it's wonderful. And the lipsurgence is a twist up.

If you got the french perfume..then you just pull the top off.

Can someone give me a link to the list of boxes?

 

[amberlamps]

It's on page 1 of the Birchbox March thread

I got the same box but, my hair tie is sky blue and my lip color is amused like a sheer hot pink.

 

[Auntboo]

I am a little disappointed with the matte pink Tarte - I thinki would have preferred the sheer now that I have tried it. It is just a little heavier of a look than I normally go for, although adding a touch of gloss on top helps. By it does seem to be nicely moisturizing and the mint is nice and light and refreshing.

I got the LipSurgence in Lucky, but it was broken off completely at the base. I have emailed Birchbox, but I dunno what they'll be able to do for me, since that sub is already cancelled, so points wouldn't do me any good unless they apply them to my other account.

 

[yousoldtheworld]

Yeah, mine was damaged as well (all smashed up in the cap) and they just emailed me back - they can't replace the product because they don't have any more, but they gave me 100 points to make up for it.  I hope they can fix it for you somehow despite your cancelled account...

I just got confirmation from Birchbox that I had opted in on both my accounts but they did not have enough and gave priority to older subscribers.  Since my main account has only been open since Dec I want to buy that but I feel that there are people on this board who were newer and got boxes?  I opted in the moment I got the e-mails.

I was debating keeping my 2nd account but this made my decision to cancel it.  I won't cancel my main account since I am still happy overall with their products and service but this did rub me the wrong way.

I was projecteted to receive my box on the 9th but received it today instead and I am thrilled! I was hoping for the silver nail polish and that's exactly what I got. It's so gorgeous I can't wait to go home and give myself a little mani! The twirl perfume smells nice and I even like my yellow twist tie which I can wear when I go to zumba. From this tv box, to my free vichy box last month, and my jessie curl and 7 item box that should come later this week, Birchbox has really impressed me! I don't think any other subscription service at the moment can really be compared to BB. I'm going to save up and try to sign up for the annual subscription.

thats probably what they will do for me too then.. bummer!!

I bought the tarte LipSurgence 5 pack collection over the holidays, so I was afraid I would be getting a duplicate in my Birchbox. Luckily, all of the shades I got in the holiday collection are different from the shades available from Birchbox. Phew /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

The account I got my teen vogue box on was brand new. I wonder if they gave preference to people who used the special link/waiting list. Seems weird though. They've also put the nail in the coffin on me keeping a second account with some things they've done lately.

hopefully they do that for me too, but no reply yet. I was able to put the tarte in the fridge and it helped to 're-glue' some of the broken pieces together. So id be okay with 100 BB points.
 

 

[yanelib27]

lol I would be ok with a coupon for a free tarte. They 'dont have anymore', REALLY? Then why are they selling some on their website??
