Teen Vogue + Birchbox

[kellyrd]

The entire top of my Tarte lip balm fell off onto the ground when I opened mine.  It was too smushed to save.

So excited! I received box #2 with the colors that I wanted!  I received the Essie "Set in Stones".. silver glitter... and the Tarte in "Peaceful".. peach color... so glad since I'm not a bright lips kinda person.. I was very nervous about receiving the bright pink.  My hair tie was yellow, which was ok.... my 10 year old wants to steal it from me anyway.  Since I knew which box I was receving except for the colors, I was even "generous" enough to let my 10 & 14 yr old daughters open up my BB and MYGlam while I was at work... and on the phone with them... lol...

I'm getting Box 8 and wanted a Teen Vogue box instead-anyone interested, please PM me. thanks

 

[TeeWhy4]

I want my box 

 It has been in NY, then to NJ, then to MA, then back to NJ and I live in Arkansas! TV BB, please show up and turn this crappy week around!

I just put on the twistband, and I only need to wrap it twice to  get a good hold! I think I like these, though I am unsure I can justify buying them. Maybe I'll get another one next month.

I got a Tarte lipsurgence with a 500 pt perk at Sephora recently. I compared that with the one I got from BB and it's different. The Sephora one is shorter, but the cap is bigger. I'm surprised my BB one didn't come smushed or melted since I live in AZ.

From my two broken samples I got 100 points for one box and 100 points for the second box I got.

Sucks that the 200 points are not on one account so I could buy the product on their store.

they havent responded to my email yet, but honestly thats the least they could do. It sucks that you had a problem with both of yours though /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I was actually hoping I had problems with my tarte so I could get the points haha . But it came just fine! And it's in Amused, which i'm really glad about, though I haven't tried it yet.

The essie nail polish (in silver) is a fail for me...I hate glitter and I gave it a shot on one nail, but it's REALLY not my style. If anyone wants this and the blotting papers let me know and we can make a trade.

I got the twist-tie in Red which is awesome, I love Red with my hair color (black). If it works well i'll probably buy some more.

I just live chatted with a lady on bb because I couldn't review the 12 pack of twistbands..

then after I already submitted it I realized I reviewed it already & not the other. HA.

or not, I already reviewed this one. Is anyone else able to review both?

 

[CaliMel]

I got my box today! It's box 4. I ended up getting the color Lucky for my Tarte product, and the silver glitter polish. After looking at them in the store today at Target though, I like the look of the silver or the pink ones. I wish I had gotten the color Joy or Peaceful for the Tarte product instead though. The pink is pretty, but I'm more into coral than pinks. So I might go to the trade thread and put that up. Mine wasn't damaged as far as I can tell. The end was a little smushed looking, but just barely. But the cap came off no problem and the product wasn't melted or anything like that. 

But I'm really happy with this box!

maybe it'll be up when they're back in stock. I guess I didn't review that one then because I only got 50 pts for this month and it should be 60.

on another note, lucky looks like crap on my lips. I need to exfoliate them apparently.

 

[HelloLeilani]

One of my Tarte products was smashed beyond use! Emailed BB. 

I even took my time and was extremely careful opening the product, making sure to not touch the bottom. Oh and I got TWO gold Essies. ugggh. Time to figure out what to do with one of them. Guess that's the gamble I took by getting two.

 

[SmokeyEye22]

My Lip Surge came just fine, I got the peachy one in Joy. I have 300 pts on my balance so I just ordered another from them for free, the purplish one in Amused! I hope it doesn't come with any defects or smushed! Let me know what BB does for you ladies.

How were yours defective? My daughter got her box and passed it to me so I could do my video on it and I couldn't get the stupid top off at ALL. Eventually I got the bottom off to get to the lip tint. I've emailed Paulina and hopefully she can replace it or give my daughter at least 240 in BB pts (which would equal $20 dollars plus 40 pts).

I am the same as playedinloops. The account that I received my TV on was brand new, the first box was TV ):

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.

So checking in and out of the TV Boxes forum. Just got mine today. I actually didn't get a pink Tarte? Did anyone else know about "Peaceful" was given out too?

I received my Teen Vogue Birchbox today. I think it's great! I received the Tarte LipSurgence in Amused (fuschia), Essie nail polish in As Gold As It Gets, Kerastase Elixir Ultime deluxe sample, Kate Spade perfume sample vial in Twirl, a Twistband hair tie in golden yellow, and a coupon code for ModCloth.com. I would prefer colors other than gold, but I still like them.
