All that survived is the foot wipes and the tan towel.  Everything else is crushed... 

HOLY SMOKES!

I'll probably give it a shot if I get Besso. I really want anything but the orangey one XD

I have a tendency to lick my lips a lot (regarddless of they're dry or not) so the texture drove me insane argh

Try not to lick your lips! Saliva contains digestive enzymes that will chap your lips.

Is there a way to tell what color of a product we will get from the website. I'm hoping I'm not getting red lipstick. I have blonde hair and I'm fair skinned.

red lipstick can look really hot on fair skinned blondes!!

Jbird, That's awful, I see some #4 hair stuff though, probably salvageable.

 

[jkfinl]

Maybe if I was 20, haha

Two words:  Marilyn Monroe.

No clicky truck/shipping email OR box updates online! Pretty sure BB forgot I'm a subscriber.

Legit just checked my bank account to confirm I was charged. BB you've got my $10, where's my box?

well also it wears away at my lipstick. I really can't help it. There's no "no bite" polish equivalent that's for lips. :

The red stuff was the lipstick and the tan stuff is the BB cream.  The No 4 is totally gone because it's a liquid and the bottom of the bottle was smashed.  I did stick my fingers in the BB cream tube and the lipstick tube, just to try them out and see how they look with my skin tone. 

 

[jkfinl]

HOLY SMOKES! 

I'm sure you are disappointed, sorry.

 

[emvee]

HOLY SMOKES! 

😞 How disappointing.

Oh no! I'm so sorry! A moment of silence for the pretties

I hope CS doesn't give you a hard time and you get replacements soon!

Birchbox should totally replace it, right?

Thanks everyone -- yeah I'm bummed but I know Birchbox will make it right.  If I hadn't received my other account on Friday I would probably be more upset.  Not going to let it ruin my day! 

 

[Linnake]

Box 57 on my second account. Not bad! My main sub hasn't updated yet.

 

[flynt]

Dang, that is the worst looking box I've seen.  I'm not sure how that sort of damage can be done other then it being run over.  Hopefully you get your replacement soon.

I really have a bad habit of licking my lips when they dry out because I hate the dry feeling. I always try to keep Chapstick handy in that little anniversary keychain from bb.
