No clicky truck on either account. I'm not to impressed with any thing I've seen so far. I might try to be surprised this month.

 
Mine has already shipped but I still have last months contents in my box section  :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> It never updates untill the 10th or later which has to be my biggest problem with them right now lol the anticipation kills! 

 
I feel ya, sister.  The Vasanti is the only thing in that box I can work any enthusiasm for, but the rest, meh.

Well, I think I was just too excited with the early shipping and the surprise of it all.  

Here's my crushing disappointment of a box (sorry, I haven't figured out spoilers yet):

Coola tinted Matte spf 30 for face 

Gilchrist & Soames London collection body lotion 

Joie Folle de Joie blah, blah, whatever parfum - smells ok

Number 4 hair shampoo & a foil of the conditioner - not even sure if I'll be able to review the conditioner for points because it's not listed on the card

Vasanti Cosmetics brighten up - might use

Now I understand the term "punishment box" only too well.   I would gladly have taken a box of melted chocolate over this crap.
For what it's worth the Vasanti is absolutely amazing, and it's a HG exfoliator for lots of people. Definitely try it out!

 
No clicky truck for me yet.  I got my box in the mail before the 10th last month, so that was fun to open it before I'd read any spoilers.  Maybe I will be able to hold off this month and enjoy the surprise again!  I'm liking most of the items I've seen so far.  Fingers crossed for the LAQA lip lube!!

 
This ended up being a truly spoiler-free month for me. I never received a shipping email, so imagine my surprise when my Birchbox was waiting for me as I headed out for work! I hope others are as lucky.

I received:

Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish 1 oz kit

Egyptian Magic 0.25 oz

Antica Farmacista shower gel

Cynthia Rowley Creamy Lip Stain in Sugar

Miss Jessie's Multicultural Curls

Oddly, the box itself was very heavy.  The Cleanse & Polish kit comes in a pretty, blue cardboard box, and both the shower gel and Egyptian Magic are plastic containers, so I guess the three combined made it feel like there was one really heavy item inside.  This was just an all-around unusual box! (In a good way!)

Edited to add: Sorry, I don't know how to hide the box contents with the spoilers thingy yet. :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I just got this box today as well...first I was excited because I have never gotten a box this early, but then I opened it :/ I'll use the Vasanti, and I like Folle de Joie, but that's it, and it's not like I'm super excited about those. I refuse to even test expensive shampoos and conditioners because I'm afraid I'll like them too much and I have too much hair and too little money to afford them! And I am never excited about Coola or Gilchris & Soames.

 I think because the thread is named "spoilers" that you don't have to hide them in a spoiler tag... right? lol At least that's how I have been treating it. Unless my pictures end up SUPER big, then I will hide those!

Yup, that's the official rule and pretty much the entire reason the word "spoilers" is in the thread name!  This is true of any thread on the board, so if you're trying to go spoiler-free, avoid any thread with that word in the title.  There's a problem with people who go in certain threads (*cough*PopSugar*cough*) that are clearly labeled with "Spoilers" and get mad because people are posting unhidden spoilers, but THE THREAD NAME IS YOUR WARNING TO STAY OUT.  Ahem.  It's one of my pet peeves.

That is a fabulous box! At first I wasn't impressed with the Liz Earle cleanser, but I grew to love it. I use it in the shower as a face wash. And totally jealous of the Egyptian Magic!

 
My first box was the May box. I subbed very late in May, Birchbox has the date as May 23, and it came at the end of the month. Every item in my box is also in the June box list.

Does this mean I'll get dupes in June?

(I only have one subscription to BB.)

Oh, and they have my first box ( which I received in May) as status- Processing.

Is this normal for BB? My Modern Mermaid box says "Shipped... not " Processing". 

Ditto the full sized fragrance I bought from the shop. " Shipped", and received.

I would LOVE this box!!! I get really strange things from BB, it seems. Leftovers, recycled items, or maybe items for the next month's box too, judging from the June list. It's impossible!!

There are dozens of different boxes and products sent every month.  You should never receive a product twice on the sam subscription.  If you do, email CS and let them know.  They will typically give you 100 points.

As for order status, active subscriptions will always say "Processing" because it in an ongoing open order.

@@kawaiimeows I think these two questions (especially the second one) might be worth adding to the FAQ.

TYSVM Meaganola. I was really worried about getting the same black eyeliner again ( my least favorite makeup item ever). 

I also couldn't figure out the " Processing" thing.. I thought maybe they lost my card number or something on their end.
