Free Beauty Blender + Cleanser with Birchbox Subscription!

Anyone still not received their Beauty Blender? It’s been 12 business days since I got the email stating it’d be 10 business days, and still nothing for me. I can’t figure out how to email them from the website either. Any tips? Thanks!

Has anyone gotten their beauty blender yet?

I got an e-mail saying that my beautyblender was shipping separately, which, if you read my long comment a few posts down, is confusing the heck out of me! I just sent them an e-mail about this. I also got my box and wasn’t expecting a beautyblender with it so I wasn’t disappointed about that like others were, but the box itself was great! I’ve been subscribed for a year and a half now, and though I got some repeat brands, miraculously no repeat products! Along with an extra product that wasn’t listed on my card and one that I’ve wanted to try for so long that I was just going to buy the full size because I’d given up on Birchbox ever sending it to me. I was planning to cancel this second account, but I think I’ll keep it through June because of the giveaway they’re doing 🙂

Did anyone else receive their boxes and the Beauty Blender wasn’t inside, despite the promo being on your e-mail receipt? I contacted them, but just wondering if it happened to anyone else.

I came here to see if I were the only one missing their blender this morning, I am glad I am not, and that they are shipping them separately. I am happy with the box though, everything in it I will use. I did receive a couple of duplicate items, but they were of things I would have wanted to break down and buy, so this way I will have a little longer for that to be the case.

I received a response back from Bb –

Hi,

Thanks so much for subscribing to Birchbox!

Your free beautyblender® sponge and cleanser gift will be shipping separately from your May box. You will be receiving it within the next 10 business days. We apologize for any inconvenience!

As always, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us with questions or concerns at info.birchbox.com. We’re happy to help.

Thank you,
Team Birchbox

Add me to the list of those who didn’t receive their beautyblender. It’s so irritating! The code showed up as applied at checkout, as well as in my confirmation email. I really hope they honor this for us.
I have had a Birchbox account for over three years, and have considered opening a second account many times but have never pulled the trigger until this promo. I was planning on keeping the second account, but I definitely won’t if they refuse to honor the promo for those of us who signed up while the code was still working.

I’m also missing the beauty blender in my box today, after using this promotion! I emailed customer service to see what’s up… anyone have a response from them yet?

When I didn’t receive my beauty blender/cleaner in my box today this was the first place I went to read if others received theirs or not? I love this site! I did email their customer service regarding it. It was such a great deal I had to sign up. – disappointed I didn’t receive it with my box.

I am so disappointed!!! I resubscribed with code BLEND, it showed code was applied. Today got my box and no Beauty Blender! !! And my box is exact copy of the box I have got on my main account. If they don’t send Beauty blender I feel like I just lost $10.

The most bizarrely awesome thing just happened with me and Birchbox’s Customer Service. I had signed up with this beautyblender promo and on a whim, added the beta 2 full sized product upgrade just to try it out. Then I found out what the 2 products were going to be (a single eyeshadow and a lipstick) and was disappointed, so I e-mailed to cancel the upgrade. Instead of refunding me the $20 upgrade, they canceled the entire subscription, refunded me, and told me I could resubscribe at my own convenience. By then, of course, the beautyblender promo was gone. So I e-mailed them and said thanks for the help, but if I knew they’d cancel the entire subscription, I’d have kept the upgrade since I thought the free beautyblender would be worth it. beautyblender + a couple of superfluous products I could just give to a friend > no beautyblender. They responded and said they’d send me the beautyblender to honor the promo I had originally signed up for. I thought this was great, said thanks, rated their customer service as awesome as they’ve always been, and moved on. Today I received a package from Birchbox that looked a smidge too big to only contain one of those small plastic tubes with a beautyblender and a little cleanser solid as was advertised in the promo. Inside was, get this, a “Double Blender Sponge & Cleanser Kit”: two beautyblenders and a 5 fl oz bottle of the cleanser. What?!?! This kit, a $58 value, is not sold in the Birchbox shop, but I found it online at Sephora (and beauty.com and dermstore) for $40 and Amazon for $35. Was this just a huge mistake of clicking the wrong item to send to me, or did they just think “hey, let’s make a customer’s day and send her this kit”? I’m honestly leaning toward the latter scenario since this kit is old stock (given that they don’t sell it in the store anymore), but the sponges are sealed and the cleanser looks totally fine. This is so amazing. Birchbox is amazing. They even threw in a package of 3 Mighty Leaf teas! I keep thinking that it might be a mistake after all and I’m glancing at the kit and feeling super guilty about keeping it. I’m feeling compelled to e-mail Birchbox and ask what’s up with this package just for peace of mind!

I just tried to do a new sub with this promo code and one other I found through Ibotta and neither worked 🙁

Muahaha, us folks north of the border (Canada) got them in our boxes last month and I know a lot of Americans were jelly. Glad you guys are finally getting them, too!

Looks like they ran out – I tried to sign up for a 2nd box and the promo is no longer valid 🙁

Thanks! I signed up for my second account with your referral link ~ love how you keep us informed!

I have a shipment date of May 22nd. That seems a bit off, compared to my previous Birchbox account (beginning of the month). Do you think it’s because it’s a new subscription?

I’ll likely want to cancel after I receive the Beauty Blender ~ I assume it’s safe to do so once I get my first shipment notice?

Thanks, Liz! <3

I don’t recall being charged tax when I signed up for a three month or 12 month sub. Now I’m doing a monthly and it’s including/charging tax. Does that seem correct?

Thanks!

Great…I now have a second subscription to Birchbox…I mean *ahem* I bought one for my mom….yeah…totally…

Hi,
I just signed up with birchbox a few weeks ago. I’m just reading now that if you entered a promo code you would receive a beauty blender.
I didn’t even see it when I joined! I’m new to this. Would birchbox automatically send it since it’s good until May 15?
Any info would be great!, thanks!

What kind of foundation is good to use with these? Thanks y’all.

Thanks Liz. Now I created my 3rd account with them. I’m out of control.

How do I add a new subscription without another email address? I tried using the code on a gift subscription but it said it wasn’t valid.

I have been wanting to try a beauty blender for awhile now, thanks so much for sharing. I now have 5 accounts, ones upgraded and another one has a Birchbox man as well! I’m now officially obsessed with Birchbox, I’ve been a member since 2012!

I caved last month and purchased a 3 month gift subscription for both myself and my DIL, well this month I just added a monthly subscription to the account I had gifted the 3 months to just to get the beauty blender so I will assume that for the next 2 months I will be getting 3 boxes. Nope, I do not have an addiction.

And I just re-activated my birchbox subscription…

Just made another account to take advantage of this deal. GWPs are officially my kryptonite when it comes to signing up for boxes! I decided to try the upgraded full size add-ons, too. My package will contain: a beauty blender with cleanser, the regular 5 samples, and two full-size items all for $30, and then I added the $6 Miss Jessie’s Detangling comb so that I could include the free Mystery Sample pack for another 2 samples! What an incredible deal for a little under $40! Question: Will all of this come with the May box? I forget when the cut-off is.
