Butttt......let's be honest. I'll probably be refreshing the page 100 times on the 10th like I've done the last two months

And the 10th is a Saturday this month... I'm betting that means we'll be waiting. OR we could get amazing lucky and they'll update them right on time and rainbows and unicorns will shoot out my butt! 

I'm pretty sure they update most on the 10th regardless of the day of the week. I know they posted on the 10th in March ( a Sunday) and the 10th in November (a Saturday). The only time I've had a box updated late is if my box shipped late /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Pin Instagram there seems to be a couple of boxes with an eyeshadow quad that says "the perfect smoky eye" ! I can't tell what brand though.

Right...I think last month has been the only month in a while (or ever?) where they updated after the 10th.

I remember getting tracking last month on a Sunday night around 9pm, so hopefully it doesn't matter.  I would like to see my box page update just in time for my birthday

but only if they're good boxes haha!  I wouldnt be surprised if the tech employees at Birchbox arent allowed to take off the 9th or 10th each month, even if it falls on a weekend.

For me it was last month and the month before. A lot of people didn't update until the 11th in June, either. I figured maybe it was a new trend so I was afraid to get hopeful this month....

*fingers crossed for an early update or a quick shipment*

My box is scheduled to be delivered on Aug 12th but I hope I get it on the 10th.  Box weight is .4950

It looks like there were a lot of others with that same weight.  I got box #3 last month.  Anyone else get box #3 last month and have a ship weight of .4950 this month?  I hope I don't get the foot wipes.  I already got them in a Klutch box earlier this month and I haven't used them yet.

Mine has a clicky truck and weighs only 0.4300 and should be here on Monday. I haven't seen anyone with such a light box. So curious!

Box twins! I hope we get something fabulous! No shipment in my second account.

 

[Moonittude]

Yep, it says August 10th but it typically arrives a day or two before the expected time, so it should be in my hands soon!

Yay!

I have the same weight as you both, box triplets! I got the bobby pins and lipstick last month so I won't get those again.  Did you all get those items last month as well? 

I got the bobby pins and lipstick last month too. I hope we get a good box this month, but I'm so worried about the light weight. I REALLY don't want the foot wipes. This waiting a whole week is killing me.

I got box 3 last month, and this month my weight is .495.  I want the foot wipes though, so I'm busy hoping I get them, lol.  I really hope I get a lipstick too.  I want to buy a set, but cannot bring myself to buy them without trying first since my lips are so picky these days.

New spoiler up on Facebook! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Another product that will be in the August boxes is:

KMS California Freeshape Hot Flex Spray

 

From the Facebook post: "While this hair product can't prevent all styling tool fails (like the one where you forget your curling iron isn't a microphone), it does offer some pretty serious damage control when it comes to protecting your strands from heat"

 

Product info on the Birchbox site: http://www.birchbox.com/shop/kms-california-freeshape-hot-flex-spray/


Seems pretty similar to the Beauty Protector spray, and the No. 4 Prep and Protect from last month (which I adored)... It will be interesting to see how this one compares!

We may disagree about the foot wipes but I agree with you about the lipstick. I actually had a set in my cart last month and decided to remove it in an attempt to curb my spending. If we get the lipstick I won't mind the foot wipes as much. Fingers crossed

I would actually like to get this. I'm all about this kind of product, but I've been to cheap to buy any.

Clicky Truck AND shipping email!....but not updated...well shucks lol

 

[abreeskye]

Ahhhh!  Clicky truck for me too.  And an email.  It says it will be delivered the 12th, but I seem to get it earlier.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the end of the week!  I'd like to try that hair product as well!

Looks like we are box twins I got the same weight for my second account!

 yay! 

 

[queenofperil]

Maybe I don't have my shipping info yet because they're giving me a super awesome birthday Birchbox and it's got to be delayed a bit. >_>

 

[astrick1]

Got my shipping info unusually early this month. I have a no weight of .3940 to be delivered on the 12th. Seems like a light box to me.

maybe i can say the same thing and that's why i have no tracking? i feel like having a july 31st birthday kind of counts since i wasn't even thinking about my birthday at the beginning of the month LOL.
