lol it's just the stream on the front page of all your subscriptions. If you hover over the thread, you should see something ilek "subscriptions: Birchbox February 2013 " And you can click the X to unsubscribe.Originally Posted by katie danielle /img/forum/go_quote.gif
That is how I go about subscribing to threads, but where is the front page stream? I don't think I'm using this website correctly or to it's full potential.
There is actually a subscribe button at the top of the thread. It's a black box with a yellow star and it says subscriptions /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />Originally Posted by Kyuu /img/forum/go_quote.gif
You know on the bottom of the page, before the reply box there is "unread posts / subscribe / search this thread / preference"? If you click the subscribe, you can set your subscription/notification options and it'll add it to your front page stream.
It's also one way to remove your subscription if you're done following a thread
I'm probably wrong, but the bottles on the right look like Manna Kadar's Illuminator bottle - they have a tall lid like that. But they're not that skinny, so probably not. Please let there be shadows! !!
They usually do it between the 2nd-5th /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />Can't wait to see what we are getting for March, when do they upload the spoiler vid?
The shop is probably close to 90 percent of Birchbox's revenue. On a side note, my TJ Maxx has Color Club box sets of 7 from like Spring 2012 for 9 bucks. I bought Blue-Ming off the Birchbox website, it's included in the set at TJ Maxx, and I could have gotten 6 other polishes on the set for only a buck more than I spent for 1.I didn't realize all the samples were given to BB for free.  12 million in funding?  I'd say it's a close call between the revenue of the sub service and their direct commerce business at this point.  I've read that half of the 200k subscribers buy full-sized items.  If that 100k is anything like me, I've definitely spent more in the shop than I have on the subscription service alone.  I imagine their goal is to keep increasing the shop, giving us incentives to spend and to ultimately make that their biggest source of revenue.  The box is like a fishing tackle to get us to buy.  I've read that since they started they've become the leading retailer of Benta Berry in the states and even one of the leading retailers of Color Club.  They charge $8 a pop for one of those polishes you could probably find elsewhere for cheaper, but you buy it in their shop because you want to reach the limit to get their promotions, and it's a low priced item. ÂI think this isn't  fair assessment. for the past 26 months the samples have been both large and small, in sort of a random way, since it really depends on the marketing budgets of the companies they partner with that month. And the subscription service is what makes up the bulk of their earnings. They have received 12 million in funding, and I believe they have somewhere upwards of 200k subscribers, at $10 a month, is 2 million a month, 24 million a year, I highly doubt the e commerce end of things makes even close to that.Â
I saw this and first thing I thought was, 'Uh oh. Oh, yes, they would.' I've never heard of St. Tropez Tanning Mousse, but if it has anything to do with fake tanning, Birchbox loves that kinda thing way too much.the blue bottles also look like the st. tropez tanning mouse. but im not sure BB would go that route.
I looooove the tanning mousse! I also have the mitt, which i think is key, your fingers don't the fake tanner darkness and it spreads easily and totally evenly. I am pretty pale so I love that I don't have to use much product to look like i have had some sun. It's very natural looking on me.I saw this and first thing I thought was, 'Uh oh.

oh wow really? im new to BB so I wasnt sure but yes the St. Tropez Line you can buy at Sephora and its pretty pricey. They have a variation of what the bottle looks like depending on what type of tanning product it is:Originally Posted by peridotcricket /img/forum/go_quote.gif

I'd sign up for Hautelook! I picked up Nude Tude for like $16 when it was on there. Whenever theBalm goes on HL, it's always 50% off and I'm pretty sure every time they have had NudeTude!Originally Posted by Brainwall /img/forum/go_quote.gif
Oh man I can't wait. I've been checking my email like there is going to be a shipping code sent.. but then I realize that it is only the 20th. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I think I've gone mad. I signed up mid-January and have only received two boxes, but have already spent over 150 bucks in the shop and I have 75 dollars of stuff in my cart at the moment and I am itching to click "checkout." I'm pretty sure I need that The Balm NUDE palette... Decisions. I think I'd be completely happy to get a second part time job just to fund my new-found makeup obsession. I can't believe I was using crappy stuff for so long. I really look forward to doing my makeup every day now. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
I think I'll wait though and see if they send eyeshadow for March. *Crossing my fingers!*
