I would loooooove a full size of They're Real! But I just have soooo many mascara samples that I can't justify spending the money on one! I even traded away the full sized Mally Mascara that I got in my Sept BB since I just didn't want to deal with it.

Actually, I have Ipsy to thank for my recent influx... I got a Pixi mascara in my August bag, an Elizabeth Mott (she also makes the Lash Cards) mascara in my Sept bag, and I just hosted an Ipsy + Benefit LashBash so I now have a huge tube of They're Real!   I have so many from various subs and GWP's that I'm going to be passing them out like candy at Christmas!  Uncle Bob might not like his, but you can't please everyone, right?  :roflmao:

I just took a look at the line on BB and I would love the luminizer!  This will be my second month for Birchbox.  I loved September and can't wait to see what October has in store!

OT - I'm having a great day! 1. I got an invite for a Birchblogger breakfast with Alison Raffaele (founder of an eco-friendly cosmetics line that will be sampled in the October Birchbox). The breakfast will be at the Birchbox office and a makeup gift will be given to us, including her Reality Base Foundation. 2. I was given a verbal job offer at a magnet hospital in NYC. 3. I had some fun mail (Nars and MAC giveaway prizes). :icon_cheers:

I'd like to sample a concealer. I got one (mineralogie maybe?) at the beginning of last year when I first stared subscribing but that's it! We got a new puppy a few weeks ago and I could use something to cover up the resulting circles under my eyes!

or a mascara!  If I get one more mascara, I will flip out!

Yes all of this! But I will gladly take color liners, blush, lipstick and any other pretty makeup item they want to send.

Congrats on the job offer and being picked for the Birchblogger breakfast!

 
I finally got around to trying out the Davines spray, and I tried spraying it on my hands then applying to the hair as suggested. It seemed fine and I didn't have any problems with it being particularly drying, but it's not exactly a groundbreaking product for me either.

Love the light waves! I have hair envy. My stick straight hair takes a lot of effort to be not stick straight.

So pretty! I have hair envy too because my hair has natural tight spiral curls. I'd LOVE for my hair to look like this some times!

I got invited too, but I live too far away so I had to pass :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> :( I hope you have fun!!

Did anyone else get the email for annual subscriptions for $99? I am a little sad cause I *just* got an annual subscription about a week ago.

I usually get their emails, but I haven't seen that one yet.  Can you share the details?  I am thinking about upgrading to annual, but I was waiting for the best opportunity deal/bonus/points-wise.

Please share that--I would like to upgrade to an annual subscription and I just received a bonus at work.

It is YEARLY99 and it is $99 for an annual and you get 99bb points. It expires Oct 6th. I didn't get the email personally either, but I know a couple of people who got the email. I think thats a pretty good deal $8.25 per box, plus the bb points, so its closer to $3 a box

I didn't get the email, I wonder if anyone can use the code?  So tempting!  I might use it even though I shouldn't.

oh not bad! FYI they'll probably run the "upgrade to yearly and get double points" promo again as well near christmas, so that $110 for $22 in points upfront and then $60 in points over the year, which makes it closer to $2.30 a box. But then you have to buy stuff from their shop and are probably going to end up spending more money as well as a result...
