I want that Stila mascara, but I want the Power Pose box, too. Hmm... I may need to reactivate my second account but I don't want to receive the customer favorites box or another September box. I wish there was a way around.

If you are just doing this to get one of the curated boxes, you can just buy them for $10 as a subscriber. They are usually available for purchase the day to pick your sample choice goes out. I have done this several times. (It says $15 but turns into $10 in your cart). It also ships super fast, like a usual order. You also get points (you can also use points to buy)!

Wait, what? I want both boxes but don't want a 2nd sub. I can just buy the 2nd when I PYS?

yup!  just do a search for it (sometimes they even have a little clicky on the pick your sample that directs you to it)- if you search on the Birchbox site "customer favorites" which is the Sept currated box, that comes up right now to buy a la carte. Once Sept boxes are over, they should come up.

I'm going to get the stila and I'm going to buy the power pose box :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm in love with the box art this month for standard subs plus I really want to try that stila mascara even though I have enough mascara to last me a couple years...

When you subscribe now you will receive the customer favorites box as your September box and you will be able to do sample choice for October.

Aww man...I re-activated a third sub now to give me more choices next month and I was oping to get a regular Sept. box.  Wasn't thinking we'd get the CF box.  I already bought it.  Oh well. On the bright side BBJETBLUE100 worked so I guess that makes it worthwhile! 

It sounds crazy and possibly a little obsessive but I'm hoping to get the Roller Lash, They're Real and Stila on each of the my three subs and buy both curated boxes additionally.  I love sample sized mascaras, and have always wanted to try They're Real. The Stila looks promising too.  I currently use Roller Lash and I LOVE it - provides a lot of length and curl.  I got the W3ll People one in a previous box and did not like it.  It is a very thin light formula and just did not provide me with any length or volume.  

Seems like these curated boxes will be in very high demand.  I hope they are indeed available for purchase.  I remember the Nicole Richie one sold out super quick and I expect these will too!

 
I was a little disappointed in my box last month, so I'm really excited for this month. I'm def going for the Power Pose box! It looks great. I've been wanting to try a good eye cream.

I have the same plan for my 3 subs. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I haven't tried the Stila, but I already have They're Real and Roller Lash (side note: they're real layered over roller lash is awesome!) and like both so I never mind stocking up on the deluxe/travel sizes . 

 
I just sorted through the two big totes full of samples that I have horded.  In there were 23 mascaras.  You would think that would spur me to not order three boxes from Birchbox next month knowing that I have all that mascara and that each box will have another one in it.  You would THINK that would have me skip a month.  But, alas, I admit that I have a problem and tiny samples of makeup sing their siren songs to me. I must have more of them.

And once you open a mascara you only have a few months to use it before you are supposed to toss it. That's why I never mind getting more of them. Meanwhile you can use shadow and blush until you clean the pan so multiples are kind of a waste.

 
I reserved the ban.do planner several days ago as a Birchbox Plus item, but never received a confirmation email, and now I see that it's sold out. Does that mean I won't be getting it, or is it typical to not get a confirmation?

I would email them to double check, I usually receive a confirmation email a few days after reserving add ons.

 
I reserved the brush set and didn't get a confirmation email, at least not yet. Hopefully it still went through.

Last month I reserved two Plus items and it took several days before I got an email confirmation, so you guys should be good!
