Birchbox August 2013

[DorotaD]

Hooray! Thank you! ETA: Hmm, weird...almost no perfume this month! I wonder if that's because of the profile change (adding the "less than 6 samples of perfume per year" check box) or because it's summer? Could also be because they have been working less with perfume companies. Also, PLEASE NO TEA. Why would they send tea in August??

I don't see anything wrong with them sending tea in August. Don't a lot of people drink coffee every morning? Some of us prefer tea instead /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> or maybe just me lol

I will gladly take anyone's unwanted tea :-D

Don't forget ice tea, a summertime beverage!! It's a staple in my home year round.

Yes. Not a fan of coffee.

There's one brand of tea that I'm hoping to not get, but that's just because the little international foods shop by my apartment sells it. I've been drinking it for a few years now. I like Birchbox for the new brands!

I used the last tea bags I got to dry out my shoes after getting caught in the rain. Worked great! LOL

You said u had a lipstick from last months and another one for this month. I didn't get lipstick last month. I hope no tan towels too. If I get the wipes, I'll use it on my toddler.


I got the lipstick last month in a trade. It didn't come in either of my boxes.

If you see a box variation that has less than 5 products listed, it means that it is incomplete.  The products won't appear on the box pages until they are in the shop.  No one is getting a box with only 2 or 3 items unless the packer makes a mistake.

Ha ha , yes!!!

YES, I love that idea /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 Guess I'll just have to wait this one out. If the shipping is faster this month I guess I won't be able to complain too much, I just want my Birchbox before I leave on vacation and it's usually so slow to get to me.

No clicky truck for me, either /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Your new pic is super cute! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Maybe I am the only one but I would love to try the feet wipes.  And I love that Dr. Jart BB cream so I would love to get another same of it!   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I hope I get atleast one of them in my box.

Nope, not just you. I love tea! Currently sipping on some Yoko Tea Organic Ginger Peach tea right now. I'm allergic to coffee, so tea is my drug of choice.

I used one of the foot wipes this morning. I thought it was really nice and refreshing! I originally opened it up to use on my 14 year old. Her feet are sore from being in band camp all week and this morning she didn't want to get out of bed because her feet hurt so bad. I told her they would help. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> She believed me and got up, lol. Anyway, I used them on my feet right after her and I still feel the tingly coolness. 

I may actually try to make a DIY version of these out of baby wipes and peppermint oil.

My box is at my PO Box yay! I'm getting my hair done and I want to tell her wait let me go get my mail lol! This is my first surprise box since my first one when I didn't realize they showed the products on my page lol!

I got the party proof nude color last month, though, happily. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Hahaha that's hilarious!  I'm alright with all the pinks- I would never buy pinks on my own, I'm more of a reds or a nude gloss person.  I've gotten a few corals that are more on the pinky side- but I'm just about to go out and buy an orange lip butter!  Between all my subs, I think I have enough hot pink everything to last a lifetime!

 

[LisaLeah]

I don't know why but I find the feet wipes HILARIOUS!

It's such a blatant marketing idea.

Any wipe would do the trick if you are into wiping your feet!

 

[elizabethrose]

Finally got an estimated shipping date and a weight- .5300, which I feel is pretty high?  I wonder what's in there.. won't find out until next Wednesday though.
