Birchbox June 2014 - Spoilers!

[mandithomas89]

I knew from checking the tracking last night that one box would be showing up at my mom's in CA today but was totally surprised when I saw that another one was delivered here today as well! I got the box everyone else seems to be getting (#29):

Coola Matte SPF

Folle de Joie

Vasanti Brighten Up

Gilchrist & Soames London Collection body lotion

Number 4 Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner

I'm happy to get the Vasanti and Folle de Joie to try the Number 4 since I have dry hair and heard good things about the last Number 4 (which I have yet to try) but I'm not loving the Gilchrist & Soames scent.

Also, I noticed that when I look at my box history, all 4 accounts show the April box that I got back when I only had one account. Interesting!

From the MUT Birchbox FAQ (https://www.makeuptalk.com/f/topic/131763-birchbox-faqs-read-here-before-asking/):

As far as figuring out what's in your box, if it's only your second box, the only surefire way is to wait until the 10th because that's not really enough of a box history to be able to discount many boxes.  I've been a subscriber for just over three years, and I'm *still* surprised every month even when I think I know exactly what they're sending.  (Exception:  They *love* to send me lip products, so I usually receive a lipstick/gloss/balm if they're sending that out, but that's more of a just-what-they-do-for-my-profile thing than anything else.)

Hi! I would LOVE to always get a lip product! Lol can you please share with me a little bit about your profile? Thank you! =]

me too! i have very full lips so i love putting products on them.  i will take lip products over hair products any day!

 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! 

Y'know, that's a really good point! I'm glad you mentioned that.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Now I won't feel bad at all blabbing about my goodies. Thank you!

I really hope that I get the multicultural curls product in my box, my daughter is mixed (black, mexican, italian, german and czech) so her curls suck products right up!

I bet your daughter has beautiful hair!!! I have wild curls, so I'm pretty excited about trying the multicultural curls sample.  It's a foil packet, but a fairly generous one.  Miss Jessie's Pillow Soft Curls works rather well for me, but that fabric softener smell that most people love gives me a headache.

It's like Birchbox knew I was mad at them for last month so to make up for it they sent me a great box and sent it early.  I got box 49 which has:

-Cynthia Rowley Silver Eyeliner

-Dr. Hauschka Lemon Body Wash

-Laqa Purple Lip Lube

-Nyakio face polish, body scrub, and face oil

-Perlier Almond Body Cream

Good balance, a lot of products I've been wanting to try, and 7 items to review!  Def one of the best boxes they've sent me.

I hope I get this box!

I just got my tracking yesterday, but my box (box #28) arrived today! I got...

- Davines Love Smoothing Shampoo, Conditioner and Ol All in One Milk – The shampoo is a very nice size and smells really good, this will definitely get used

- Folle de Joie Eau de Parfum - Smells nice, but I'm not a big perfume person

- LAQA & Co Purple Lip Lube – I got this last month in a different box, so it's going to the trade list

- Supergoop Everyday SPF – Not super exciting, but it will get used and a nice size for my purse

- Vasanti BrigthenUp! – I own this as well, but a back up never hurt

Also, do we have a trade thread up yet?

 

[kawaiisofoxy]

@@ashleylind we do!  Thanks to @@biancardi for starting it up!

I'm so behind! I didn't think about this thread being up! Anyone else get the BB Aces/Wallet/Zipper thingy? I got two of them! Hello new pencil pouch.

I got it, and that's exactly what I'm using it for!

 

[Angelalh]

I just got this box too! I really loved it.

I love the Liz Earle muslin clothes, and my travel sized one is getting kinda used. (I bought the ful size set, but I like the size of the sample one so much better). I don't care for the face wash itself, so maybe I'll trade it or give it away.

I'm excited to try the Egyptian Magic, it's a nicely packaged sample (a little jar) and I've head really good things about it.

I usually HATE to get shower gel in subscriptions because I don't really use it, but this one smells so fantastic! I'm so glad I got it.

The Cynthia Rowley stain is something I really wanted to try so I'm happy I got this.

And The Multicurtual Curls .... Very weird. I'm not sure why I received this. It's for multi-cultural, multi-textured hair ... definitely doesn't describe my hair.

Overall, a great box!

im a white girl with just frizzy curly hair it is a bit multi textured i guess, the underneath section is gorgeous hiny spiral curls, and on top dull loose curls

the multicultural curls has been a godsend... more even textured more defined, and more shiny give it a try!!!

i apply it when my hair is pretty wet and scrunch my hair with a towel

 

[quene8106]

The multicultural curls didn't work out for me and I'm multiracial =/ (black on dad's side, Irish and Cherokee on mom's side)  but the pillow soft curls and jelly soft curls gave my curls the va-va-voom look. 

I wonder if it has to deal with what type of curls one has. 

 

[queenofperil]

My account info is still on May. I don't know what the deal is. The CS agent at Birchbox said that there is a June box reserved for me, but I don't feel even remotely comforted. It looks like there are a lot of products I've already received this month, so maybe I'll distract myself by finding boxes I could possibly receive.

Everyone's boxes are on May still. They do not update until the 10th, even for those of us who received our boxes on the early end of the time frame.

I know that. The account information page updates on the first of the month. The truck updates to whatever the current month is, even if the link is not there. I still have a May truck and a May tracking information link.

Same here. I figured I'd wait till the tenth to say anything since it doesn't do me any good until then anyways.

My hair is the exact same as yours! (And so is my name - lol). I love the multicultural curls. I hope they carry it on BB because that will be where my points go. I ordered a sample from Miss Jessie's as soon as it came out. A++

 

[bonita22]

Still no clicky truck for me /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I don't think Birchbox likes me anymore. Oh Birchbox, why can't I quit you?

It does. And it has to do with your hair type. If you go to Miss Jessie's website it has exact descriptions on what works on what type hair. I used Pillow Soft curls and it was just ok but multicultural curls was awesome. I am not

Multicultural so my hair is a different texture and I think that makes a difference with Miss Jessie's products.

 

[puppymomofthree]

I want Birchbox to carry the Supergoop oil sunscreen! I want to try it so badly--they have everything else from the brand, but for people who are allergic to creams or do not like the sticky feel of sunscreen, it sounds perfect!

 

[chelsealady]

Got a clicky truck on both accounts. But no tracking available.
