NOW CLOSED

Birchbox are looking for 120 Mumsnetters to test out their monthly beauty box delivery service. Each tester will receive 3 Birchbox boxes each containing 5 make-up, skincare, hair, and body products.

Here’s what Birchbox has to say: "Meet Birchbox – the UK’s No. 1 Beauty Box! Receive 5 beauty treats every month tailored to your skin, hair and style using your unique beauty profile.

Ready for a new way to find beauty that works for you? You’re in luck! We’d like to treat you to a Birchbox discovery bundle – a chance to try new beauty products and find new must-haves.

As part of your bundle you’ll receive a September Birchbox (containing a Benefit Box O’ Powder!) along with two mystery boxes from 2018. Each one contains 5 beauty treats with a mix of make-up, skincare, hair and body products inside.

All you need to do? Have fun experimenting with your new beauty products – then let us know what you think of your Birchbox experience.”

Selected testers will be sent their 3 Birchbox boxes at the same time and after trying out the beauty products will be required to leave their feedback on the Birchbox service on a thread on Mumsnet and by filling in a short survey.

Everyone who leaves their feedback as required will be entered into a prize draw to win a £300 voucher of their choice (from a list).

If you’re interested in taking part, please sign up here.

Thanks and good luck!

Have heard so much about this from various FB groups, would be lovely to give it a try.

IloveJudgeJudy · 29/10/2018 15:58

I would also be very interested in trying this. DD has a couple of different beauty boxes so it would be interesting to compare

i would love to try this,

LikeARockhopper · 29/10/2018 16:47

Done - been considering this but wasn't sure about it. It'd be great to try and I need a little cheering up right now.

Srathore · 29/10/2018 17:44

When do we find out if we've been chosen?

YouBetterWOooOooOoo · 03/11/2018 16:48

Ah, just found the MNHQ post, guess I wasn't in this time then Sad

spofs · 03/11/2018 17:03

When/ how will we find out if we have been chosen? 

billyalex · 05/11/2018 10:12

Yay!!!! Very excited! I’ve just had an email :-)

Fillybuster · 05/11/2018 23:58

Thank you MNHQ! Very much looking forward to this 😀

IggyAce · 09/11/2018 09:51

Well I received 3 boxes but had no email from mumsnet to confirm I’d been chosen, it was a lovely surprise. Can someone send me the link for where I need to leave feedback please.

Ubercornsdiscoball · 09/11/2018 11:08

I’ve not had my boxes yet but the email said you get 2 weeks to test them and then they’ll send a link for feedback

flintfoxy · 09/11/2018 11:34

I've had the e mail but no boxes

tableandchairz · 09/11/2018 13:41

Wooo boxes arrived just there 😀

Megansmumsie · 09/11/2018 13:54

Yay! Thank you for choosing me. I've never done a Mumsnet product test before. The boxes arrived this afternoon but I haven't had an email yet so will look out for it.

CinnamonTwist · 09/11/2018 14:43

I've just received the boxes in the post but had no email, so can't access the survey. Really glad to have been chosen, I've been having a rough time recently and they're a lovely pick me up to receive, thank you Smile

lilstar · 09/11/2018 16:28

What a lovely surprise I got after a tough day yesterday. My 3 boxes arrived (never got an email to say I'd been selected). First time I'll have done a product test. So looking forward to trying these products (and relaxing a bit at the same time).

littleme96 · 09/11/2018 16:38

Thank you for my boxes which arrived today. Am really looking forward to trying everything!

BrieAndChilli · 09/11/2018 17:56

Boxes arrived today, but I had missed the email sent so it was a nice intriguing surprise!! DD has already nabbed the boxes to make dolls drawers!!!!

HeyMacWey · 09/11/2018 18:12

Ooh I just got a box Shock
This has made my week!
Especially as I didn't receive an email Confused what a lovely surprise!

Thank you!

inashizzle · 09/11/2018 18:55

I didn't get an email to say I was selected, so I have a fresh hope Grin.

SeaGlassHunter · 09/11/2018 21:12

Boxes arrived today - excited to start trying things out!

lilstar · 10/11/2018 01:04

Have already started trying a couple of products. Already found a favourite. Email re where to leave feedback would be fab...or do we just leave it here? #newbietotesting

MyNameIsJane · 10/11/2018 09:44

I missed the email so it was a nice surprise yesterday. I searched my inbox and the email says this:

After you have tested out your beauty products for 2 weeks we will send you an email with a link to a feedback thread and feedback survey. We'd like you to answer questions on what you thought of the Birchbox service and products.

HeyMacWey · 10/11/2018 11:32

Just found my email in my junk mail.
