Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel Sensitive-I've been wanting to try this.

Whish Coconut Milk Correcting Gel-Not something that I'm real excited about, but I'll give it a try.

Whish Hair Inhibiting Deodorant Swipes-Again, not real excited, but if I'm going to get one of the wipes, I'd rather have this one than the foot wipes or tanning towels!

ModelCo Party Proof Lipstick Trio-I was so sad I didn't get this last month, so happy I'm getting it now. Anyone gotten this box know what color you get?

Miss Jessie's® Original Rapid Recovery Treatment

Miss Jessie's® Original Super Sweetback Treatment-I'm always on the hunt for a good deep conditioner, so glad I get to try two of Miss Jessie's! 

Great box!  I was actually interested in trying the Whish swipes.

Thanks! Looks like I might have to ration it a bit. I love stuff like this and would ideally love to use this before I got to a wedding next month, but I also want to make sure it doesn't freak my skin out! Last weekend I got a Lancome sample at Sephora. Can't remember the product name, but it was an eye product and Lancome recommended using it above and below your eyes. After two days of use my eyelids were on FIRE! So painful. Itching, flaking, and generally aching. omg. Terrible. They've finally just stopped itching and aching.

My boxes just updated and I'm getting 2 of these boxes.  I'm happy with this box (I just wish it wasn't dupes)   I wonder what color the lipstick is.  I was really hoping for Kitty so if I can't trade one of these for it I think I'll just buy the neutral from the shop.  I already have Naked from a trade but I really want to try both Kitty and Dusk til Dawn.

If anyone get this box can they post what color lippie they get? 

Sorry about the dupes.

I'm happy with this box, too -- was worth waiting until the very last minute to get shipping details and my box updates! Fingers crossed the lipstick is in a color I can use. I got the Mirenesse Glossy Kiss in that orange-y color the first month they sampled it, and I looked like a clown. But I was happy to give it to my sister, who did not look like a clown in it!

https://www.birchbox.com/shop/birchbox-1/august-2013/august-2013-bb22

Love the variety! A little makeup, a little skin care, some desperately needed hair hydration - this box might be trouble for me!  

Happy birchboxing ladies - may your clicky trucks bring you everything you desire /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Welcome!

I keep waiting for BB to come to Germany.

Here's my box for August! I'm excited that I'm getting two makeup items, but slightly uninterested in the eyeliner since it's not the Mally. Oh well, excited to get it!

   ​

 ​

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

Oh no sorry to see that! Hopefully they will send you a replacement.

Me too. Contact bb about your missing packet.

 

[Lanai12]

Yes! This is my box so hopefully I get Kitty. That's the shade I've wanted to try since I saw them last month. If this works for me I'll get the set /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Now if my tracking would just update...

I got this box too and the lippie color is Kitty. The only thing I'm not excited about are the Miss Jessie's samples. I don't have the patience for these types of products

I am getting your box #1 on one account. I already got the lipstick in Dusk Til Dawn on my other account (too dark and brown for my taste). I am soooooo hoping this one will be Kitty. If so, I'll keep Kitty and maybe try to trade for Peony. I'm more of a pink kind of girl than a brown kind of girl.

I also went and tried this for all the samples that they had, it looks like TRYFLIRT and TRYAGELESS are the only ones that will work.
Also, I looked at an old MUT thread and some people said that shipping was $3.50, but the cheapest shipping available to me (Standard, 3-6 days) was $6.50. Any ideas? Am I just far from their shipping center?

Looks like the price went up, I think it's $6.50 for everyone.

I got Ageless  (it was listed as Ageless on my BB page but I received Hello) Hello in 2011 and liked it a lot so I'm glad to see they're bringing this brand back. I have it checked on my profile to get more perfume. I only have one more Juicy to sample before I've received them all and hope they don't come out with a new scent anytime soon.


I was so happy when they added that option in our profiles to limit our perfume samples, because I was getting them every month, and none were anything I wanted to try (everything by Juicy, Nicole Richie, Aerie), so I was getting really annoyed. The boxes with perfume in the past few months have looked really good, though, so I reversed my profile to that of a perfume addict. Hopefully they'll have some interesting things coming up that do not have the name Juicy attached to it.

Ah, I know how you feel! I'm only disappointed though because this is showing up on my second account and I got this exact same box on my first account, my first time getting dupes! At least the Mally is a great product and is easily tradeable!

Anyone else notice that there is no option to write a review for the Stila Stay All Day liquid lipstick?  No review = no points.

Same thing happened to me! I changed my profile to restrict perfumes, then started liking the ones they sent out! I changed my profile back 2 months ago, but I've yet to get a perfume in my box! Maybe soon I'll get Atelier or Harvey prince... Or, you know... juicy.

My box page finally updated I'm getting box 63 https://www.birchbox.com/shop/birchbox-1/august-2013/august-2013-bb63 Very disappointed /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Never really expected to see coastal scents in Birchbox.
