Is anyone going to the San Fran/Palo Alto event tonight? I'm sure this has already been discussed, but forgive me for not wanting to dig through all 77 pages

I'll be there tonight with my cousin =)

Yay!! I can't wait! I thought for sure people would RSVP thinking it would be in San Fran then reading the small print and seeing Palo Alto and getting turned off/irritated.  I guess San Fran is more of a headline-worthy city than Palo Alto.

I'll be there with my boyfriend... who will probably be the only male there. Hahaha, the elephant in the room!

Yay! I really thought it would be me and a bunch of 14 year olds. Nothing wrong with 14 year olds...but, ya know... nothing like having a drink with some ladies after work!

p.s. for those of you going to the event in Palo Alto, afterwards head over to Nordstrom for the Thursday night free jazz concert!

that's exactly what I did hahaha. i may have screamed out a "noooooo" at seeing palo alto, at best thats considered peninsula area 

i'm not driving the hour out but I want to hear back about how it was 

...and yes I know that is nothing for some people, but here in the bay area it's generally considered far to travel more than 30 miles haha

Well, at least I'm not alone in "not getting it" lol.  I'm still trying to decide if I want to buy the neutrals set.  I need another neutral lipstick like I need another hole in my head, but..that kitty and dusk til dawn look so pretty.  What to do...what to do...

Same here. I got in peony last month. It does transfer like crazy, and with mine one has to be extra careful during application, otherwise it looks messy, and one can clean it up only with micellar water (or similar), which, of cause, also takes care of the foundation.

I have tried powdering it (through the tissue), then it sets, but the color looks a bit strange. May be that will work for yours.

The "trick with the finger" helps to avoid it transferring to the teeth.

All the MUT-ers should have a secret signal so you all can recognize each other!  I wish I lived close enough to attend one of the events!

Me too! I hate being so far away.

LOL I love this! Hmmmmmm......I guess yelling out: "MUT MUT MUT!" won't work right? Go cliche and wear a flower? We need MUT pins like a sorority!

I shall be the tallest person at the Houston event, if that helps at all

I finally got a clicky truck!  I can't track it yet, because it hasn't updated, but progress has been!

[SIZE=medium]Help me out, ladies! How can I tweak my profile so that I get some fabulous lipsticks in my BB like most of you seem to get? I have yet to get a lip product and I can’t figure out why. In fact, I have been really disappointed with most of my Birchboxes- I seem to get all of the punishment boxes, for some reason. I really wanted the June box with the Davines shampoo and lipstick, but instead I got the one with the horrid tiny 29 Skincare Sampler. I never seem to get full size products or even the deluxe sized samples month after month. What am I doing wrong?? I should probably cancel and just stick with Ipsy, but I have hope that one day I will get a decent box too![/SIZE]

[SIZE=medium]For instance, I got Box 35 this month ([/SIZE][SIZE=medium]https://www.birchbox.com/shop/birchbox-1/august-2013/august-2013-bb35[/SIZE][SIZE=medium]). The Benefit foundation was straight up orange on my skin, my Coastal Scents quad came smashed, and I can’t drink caffeinated tea. I’m a sad tater. [/SIZE]
