Birchbox July 2014 - Spoilers!

[casey anne]

Does anyone know how the Women's Health refund is going to work if you have multiple subscriptions?

I'd imagine you'd get multiple checks. I sent in for 2 refunds - in separate envelopes.

You'll get a refund for each account, just don't forget your order confirmation number for each so they can verify you're a subscriber and credit you accordingly.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have seen this asked before, but I'm not sure if anyone answered. If I already prepaid for August with a points code, what would happen if I did it again? Would it prepay for September? Thanks. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It depends on if there's an option to cancel your subscription when you go to your account. I think I canceled and resubbed and prepaid for June at the beginning of May and then it wasn't an option to do it again until the end of the month. Anytime you cancel and pay on an account that is currently subscribed, it will go towards the next month you haven't paid for though.

Ahhhh, my third (impulse) box updated and I love it! Only one non-dupe item (PosieTint, yay!), but the dupes are pretty amazing -- Real Chemistry peel, Skyn eye gels, Naobay lotion, and BP mask. Best box ever!

I signed up for a second sub and will be receiving this box too! Can't wait to get it. I didn't fill out a profile and wondering if that might be a way to get new products for awhile.

Received my Ruffian Rosary today! It's so pretty and already on my nails. :wub:

Hopefully, Ambrosia shows up soon.

Man, I want this box so bad, but I'm pretty sure if I subbed now, I'd wait a week only to get a different box. I'd probably trade the Real Chemistry since I've already gotten 3, but I'd LOVE to try the BP masks, Skyn eye gels, posietint, and Naobay lotion... none of which I got between 5 boxes.

Got one of my replacement ruffian polishes today, still waiting on the other one.  I had to email CS about both of them to find out what was going on/get tracking numbers. 

 

[Bikerchic]

I tried the BP mask last night.  It didn't work for me at all!  My hair felt drier and it took me forever to comb the nasty tangles out.  Sad face! 

 

[Kelly Silva]

Just tried the Ruffian nail polish remover sheet, and it calls it perfumed, and I think that's the best way to describe it. I'll admit, I was sniffing it while taking off my polish to see if I could pin down what it smelled like! It's not a bad smell, just different. Also the sheet is black, so if you're taking off a staining color, like red, it's hard to tell what parts of the sheet you've used already. But, it took off my polish well, and it's a big enough sheet to only have to use one per mani. I liked it! I may have to look into getting more with some points.

Same here. I'm hoping there's no problem with it, because I have 3 of 'em coming back to me.

 

[anbdobbs22]

I emailed CS today looking for info on where my Ambrosia Ruffian was, as I was one of those who didnt get it in their box.

Hi Abbigail,

Thanks so much for writing in and I'm so sorry for any further trouble!

Your replacement Supergoop! sample was deemed delivered on 7/19. Have you received it? You can find that tracking here: 9274892700464636699883 via USPS.com.

In addition, we encountered an error that prevented some subscribers' selections from saving, and I'm so sorry that this affected your box! I have issued 100 points to your account, which covers $10 of the $11 cost of the full sized polish.

Again, I apologize for any trouble! Please let me know if you have other questions or concerns. For further assistance, you can also give us a call at 877-487-7272 (M-F 9a-9p EST) and we'd be happy to help.

Have a great day!

So I'm assuming with the way she said it that I shouldn't even expect the sample and to take the points and just buy my own. Which is fine, and I appreciate the points but I was promised a sample when the selection email went out, didn't get it, was promised a replacement, didn't get it and it's just kinda lack luster to email back and forth about something that was their idea to offer.

ETA: her response to me asking if I should still be expecting a sample or not

HI Abbigail,

Thanks so much for your response!

To confirm, we were unable to ship that out to you, but I hope that you can use those points toward the full size! I'm so sorry again for the trouble there.

We are working around the clock to ensure that this issue does not recur for August sample choice, and we appreciate your understanding! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help!

XO,

The same thing happened to me. I didn't love any of the items and selected Rosary. When I saw the email the next day about the problem I didn't go back to make a selection in time and didn't really mind but I did get Ambrosia. I swiped it and it's not me. Send me your address and I'll send you mine.

Sorry it happened to you too, but so glad you're not a fan of Ambrosia lol. Thanks so much! I messaged you. If Rosary somehow ends up at my door, its all yours.

Le sigh.  After dealing with the whole pick-your-sample fiasco, I emailed Birchbox because I realized I never did receive my Rosary polish that was promised last month after they forgot to give me a polish box.  Then I got home, and it was in my mailbox.  And DO NOT LIKE that color!  Oh, well.  Whatever.  I also got my Glamour Doll Eyes Paper Runway and Relentless blush sample jars, so today's mail wasn't a complete wash. 

(That blush is definitely something to be tried initially on a day I'm staying at home all day, although I do see that it's eye safe, too, so it might end up being used only as eyeshadow.  I'm not sure I have the skintone to pull off orangey blush!)

July was my first month back to subs after a year and a half break.  Since last time I did the sub box thang I just got inundated with samples that I never used, I promised myself I would make a point of keeping to a reasonable number of samples, and using - or at least giving a good try to - everything I get.

My BirchBox was the dumb gummy vitamins, No 4 Super Comb, silver eyeliner, Hello lotion, and Dr. Jart CC cream.  Split the vitamins 1-1 with hubby the day after I got the box, finished up the lotion and the cc cream today, am half-way through the No 4, and used the eyeliner twice.  (Surprised how much I like the eyeliner!)

Month one at least, I'm getting my money's worth on this one!  And actually "my money" on this box was -$15.  I used a 100 point sub code, reviewed all 5 items, and sent in for the rebate on the magazine.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I got the Ruffian nail polish in Ambrosia today that was promised from the July pick. I was surprised since I just kind of gave up on it but it was nice that it came. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[Yunalesca]

I got my ambrosia in the mail today, too. It's so gorgeous!! Very much a more muted color than what came in the mermaid box, but gorgeous like all ruffians have been. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have 2 birchbox accounts and I like to read Women's Health magazine. if I turn in both of my cards do you think I"ll get  two years worth of subscription or 2 magazines every month for a year? :wacko:

it would be 2 magazines every month for a year and not 2 years because each account is separate and its a "one year offer" per account.
