Woah that's a lot of us- maybe one of us will get it earlier.  Mine's in NY now.. I'm trying to figure out how it takes 5 business days to get from NY to Chicago.

I have this same box too. I wish it would come earlier! I leave tomorrow for vacation for 12 days!

Overall I'm not exactly enthused by this box although I will probably use the Ann Taylor codes.  

Jasmine Seven (peppermint) Fresh Feet Wipes - 2

Juice Beauty Oil-Free Moisturizer - 15ml
ModelCo Party Proof Lipstick - Disco Fever
Supergoop! Advanced SPF 37 Anti-Aging Eye Cream - 2 ml
 
Lifestyle Extra:
Showstoppers Designer Fashion Tape - 2 black strips
 
 



Speaking of Ann Taylor - anyone going to the Boston even on 8/15?

There's a Boston event?! I would make the trip for that...

Edit:  Whoops, I did not get the invite email because I live 2 hours away.  But I do like to visit and I will RSVP!

I'm sorry, does that say complimentary Birchboxes?  I live about an hour away from Boston and really want to go now.  Too bad it's from 6 to 8pm.  I have a dress rehearsal that night and can't miss it.  *epic pout*  I hope Birchbox does more events in Boston.  I usually only go there for Handel and Haydn Society concerts.

That's so funny, because all over, there are quite a few of us who have been getting oranges and corals all over the place (from all the various subs), saying "OKAY ENOUGH, can I please have some pinks or purples?" /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

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!


I get all the reds. Which would be fine if they didn't all look almost identical. When I do get pinks or corals, they are the wrong pinks and corals for my skintone. You just can't win! lol

I still don't have tracking or a clicky truck on my main account. I have this unreasonable fear of being forgotten when they take this long to ship mine.

[tasertag]

My box arrived! and it's already been posted by someone else I believe 

Dr. Jart BB Cream - love BB cream and I heard great things about Dr. Jart

It's a 10 - also really excited to try
Jasmine Seven Fresh Feet Wipes - yes I was one of the few who was hoping for this in the box
Model Co Party Proof Lipstick in Kitty - YESSSS!! I traded for Get Naked last month and I really wanted this shade too. My set is now complete /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
Tan Towels - UGH. the only bust in the box.
 
All in all, pretty happy with my box.

Right over here. Well, I do have tracking on one box (0.74 lb), but I have two boxes.

No tracking here either. It's so hard for me not to get impatient when I see other people getting their boxes and I don't even have a tracking number. I need to remember, they don't have to give me anything until the 10th. Wait for the tenth. 10 10 10 10 10

Yup...was thinking the same thing elizabethrose... Chicago here also /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Got my box .52 ship weight

Spoiler

Juice Beauty moisturizer, good sample size Whish pit wipe Curl Keeper Whish exfoliating body wash-yay! And the Coastal Scents shadow quad that busted and is responsible for the black dust on everything... I'm good with 2 outta 5, the moisturizer and body wash. I reaaaaaally wanted the bb cream and the lippie.

Same here! I almost always get my shipping info on the 9 or 10. It gets so frustrating when everyone else has their boxes already, though I have to remind myself not to get too impatient until the 10. This month I'm just really not optimistic about my box shipping before 11:59pm tomorrow night. With the box pages not updating on the 10 last month, the general non-answers from CS on codes, box pages, etc, I just have this feeling that my box won't really ship until Monday! Does not help I am an impatient person.

Me too! Especially because I've had a lot of issues (i.e. not just the last two months) with my boxes updating online by the 10th, for a few months last year they would update for days and days. Stupid rapid response technology, it's made me the most impatient person in the world. I NEED IT AND I NEED IT NOOOOOW.

glad I'm not the only one! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> In June I got the box whose page randomly wouldn't load until a few days after the 10. C'mon, BB, I just want to know!!
