Not hugely impressed with Birchbox this month, always find shower / body lotion samples a bit boring. Still good value at 50% off though.

I'm disappointed with LF box.... Only samples, not even one full size product.

Anyone else not received their My Little Box yet? Got sent an email on the 2nd saying it had been dispatched but nothing turned up yet...

What happened with birchbox and the idea of sending flatter boxes? Does anyone receive them? Or they found out that it doesn't really work? The last two months I received the normal one. The birthday box is not really great...

I got both my YBD and Birchbox.. YBD wins, hands down!, my BB is not great again, with 1 sample I can't use due to my rosacea

Which sample did you get that you can't use? I too have rosacea and was hoping for the Paula's exfoliator as it specifically mentions being good for rosacea suffers in one of the articles BB published... I didn't get it though so I am waiting to see the reviews online before perhaps buying it.

They only stuck with that for one month. I saw alot of complaints about it not being put through the letterbox and the delivery person ringing the bell so perhaps that is why they stopped with the idea. The September box is a little smaller than usual though and they say that they are sticking to this slightly smaller size to prevent breakages during transit. Supposedly it doesn't affect sample sizes though.

Use Code BDAYWIN2237 At Checkout

That code doesn't work for me. In fact, none of the ones I generated do. I sent an email to Birchbox about it and they asked me to purchase at full price and then reimbursed me 20% of my order cost to match the voucher. Pleased that it worked but I would have liked to spend those reimbursed points on the initial order to get the 20% discount.

Has anyone had any luck using a Birchbox Bonanza code for multiple orders?

It was the Paula's choice! I have made my rosacea so much worse with glycolic acid so I was wary of using it.. I got my LF box and wasn't impressed with it... it wasn't very exciting, 3 hair products and no makeup!

I received my rose and jade box today and I am so upset... My rose "box" was actually an envelope containing two of the items already included in my jade box!!! seriously??? I understand that they want to get rid of stock but I think it is disrespectful to have the exact same items in both boxes... not even a variation in colour!

My rose box:
bellapierre envy
eyeko mascara

my jade box:
bellapierre envy
eyeko mascara
fakebake sport
ciate nail varnish in coral
cowshed body lotion
