Birchbox August 2013

[lexxies22]

I caved and bought two different colors of tibi bags. I was bummed that they didn't include the pink/teal pattern for sale. I also included a mystery pack. Whoo whoot! I did want to buy the Etoile nail polishes but decided not do it because the colors didnt look appealing to me. It's too similar to what I currently own. PLUS I'm getting so many indie polishes and Bondis and soon to be Julep's mystery box (not golden mystery box). I may have to go on no buy nail polish for Sept. except for Bondi 😃

YAY!  I've been waiting to buy a bottle of this nail polish for several months, but that is expensive and I didn't know if I'd like it.  I broke down and went to buy it a week or two ago, and it wasn't listed on Birchbox anymore (just the 3pc set). 

I ordered "Asscher", I can't resist the pretty sparkly white. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />   If I end up liking the formula I'll probably buy the blue color for winter.

Also ordered Benefit's Sun Beam, and a mystery pick two pack...used promo code 20OFF and 100 points, and ended up getting it all for the price of the regular polish price!

Then I saw nothing I really wanted....and became very sad lol What's a girl to do! ::slaps wrist:: Bad Cookie! Bad, bad habit!

You know, I'm so glad you said this because I find myself having that very same train of thought many times and I thought I was the only one!  You made me feel so much better. Oops...gotta go check out that website!

I never noticed until you mentioned it but I just looked and my box always ships on either the 7th or 8th of the month. The only exception being February when it shipped on the 9th. 

i'm on the west coast so i never get my box shipped this early and definitely haven't had it delivered before the 13th so i'm partly excited...but partly cautious bc the first box is never great as far as i can tell

Mine pretty much always ships on the 9 or 10. One time I got my box even BEFORE a shipping notice and before the 10, but that was a total anomaly for me!

I guess it's just a toss up then! Hoping and wishing that mine will come early this month! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I got one of my boxes today! The last thing I expected in my mailbox today.





My Lipstick came in the color Dusk til Dawn. Kind of a brownish color.

I would be very happy with that box!  I traded for the Nude lipstick last month and I want more of the nude colors.  I'm happy they are sending out other colors this month.  I received the bobby pins last month so I doubt I will be getting this box but I hope they send out the lipstick in more boxes.  That color looks gorgeous!

Bobby pins? Did you get them last month too? I wouldn't mind getting them again in different color.

That is a really great box!

Great box! This is my first month, if I get something like that I'll be pretty happy /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have a clicky truck! Tracking hasn't updated yet though.

I thought BB was telling everyone that they were out?

 

[daniellerose]

Wow I have a clicky truck already!!! I'm so surprised! My box weighs .5850 and should be here next Monday! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> anyone else with the same weight?

Maybe they're out of the full pack, but they still have sample packs?

 

[jesemiaud]

Mine's due to arrive on the 10th, but I usually get it two days earlier than the estimated del date. Box weight is .5800

Edited to add: Boxes are 404-ing for 57 variations so far!

Yep they did, and they are not back in the shop that I can see.  I dont think very many boxes didnt get them last month so maybe they just had a few left to get rid of.  Kind of weird to put it in the box when people cant buy them though.

Still no clicky trucks for me.  I dont know what to think, with all the variations last month it was completely impossible to narrow down which box I was getting and out of the ones I did narrow down I ended up getting a box I didnt think I even could, just because the box weights varied sooo much (with the same contents).  I always thought that it was really fun to try to figure it out but I'm thinking BB really wants us to be surprised.
