I'm dying to try this product too! I've been checking once or twice a week to see if they've gotten it in the store but nope! Let's keep our fingers crossed!
Birchbox June 2014 - Spoilers!

I received my June BB yesterday. A bummer was the Coola 30 spf sunscreen sample, I had received that exact sample from Ipsy a year ago or so. A somewhat bummer was also that I didn't receive any makeup, but I guess that's alright.
Otherwise, everything else was pretty good, I also received:
Gilchrist and Soames body lotion
Joie Parfum
Number 4 shampoo and bonus conditioner
Vasanti BrightenUp
On BB website, it keeps saying my first box is shipping soon. My first box was last month.

Hmmmm... I wonder how long it takes to pack up/ship each box #. My first box was packed up and shipping updated/originated on Friday at 7 pm. My second box originated last night (Saturday), also at 7 pm. Just wondering if (possibly) since it took a whole day in between the shipping origination, if they will be different boxes, or dupes.
Or if I should just stop trying to torture myself by figuring out an entire supply chain that I have little to no information on.... nah. MUST OBSESS. :wacko2:

I've been playing with the contents of my box a bit more since I posted this ^^. I didn't realize the Coola was a BB cream, I thought it was just the sunscreen for face, so I was mistaken that it's the same product that Ipsy sent out.
Regardless, it may as well have been just a sunscreen because the tint didn't accomplish anything. I also couldn't wait to wash it off, it felt suffocating for some reason, and I usually can tolerate sunscreens fairly well. Yeah, so, I doubt I'll ever use this product again.
I did wash it off with Vasanti, not expecting much from that product either because my go-to exfoliating product ATM is ExfoliKate but I was really quite impressed with this product. Glad I have a large sample to see if these good results are consistent, and if they are, I'll be purchasing it.
I also really like the Joie perfume, it reminds me of Flora by Gucci in Glorious Mandarin that I love so very much, except less strong and less sweet and peppery. I'm testing the staying power of it now, I'd be surprised if it can last as long as Gucci's, though, I can smell that perfume on me the next day. Also my husband really like the Joie too.

My box started in TN and is now in IN. I live in AL. Common sense would say TN to AL but what do I know? My dream box would be
Revealed 2 palette sample
Liz Earle kit
Lacqa Lip Purple
Nail polish
Surprise

I got this exact box on my 2nd account yesterday. I have never gotten a box this early. It's not a terribly exciting box, but probably not the worst I've received.
Edited to add: I have gotten everything else before, except this month I got #4 Hydrating and last month it was #4 Volumizing.

I just bought some of this from Sephora and I LOVE it! It absorbs quickly, does not leave a greasy/oily feeling on the skin and does not smell like most sunscreens smell. I highly recommend it if you hate regular sunscreen like I do! :sunshine:

I've had boxes ship out at almost the same time and be completely different, and boxes sent a day apart that were the same.

Wow, I have three clicky trucks and two "prepared" boxes! This is unheard of. I usually get shipping *on* the 10th and then still have a couple of days before it registers anywhere.

I have 2 boxes traveling together that shipped out around the 4th and are already in Nevada! I got dupe boxes on these same two accounts last month but I'm not sure that's the case this month. None of the boxes that have shown up in IG or here would be completely new on both accounts (I've seen one box with Vasanti which I've gotten on both these accounts, I've already gotten the Cynthia Rowley in silver on my main account and the Liz Earle on my 2nd account). I'm guessing unless there is a box that hasn't shown up on social media yet that my main account box is the one with the Liz Earle and my second account box is the one with the Cynthia Rowley in silver.
Guess we'll find out Tuesday!
ETA: Wow, there are a few more variations than I remember seeing on IG now! Still haven't seen a box that would be entirely new for both my 1st and 2nd accounts yet though

My box came early (that's two months in a row so far!) and it was another 70 point box. :smilehappyyes:
I'm not sure what the box number is, but it had;
Cynthia Rowley silver eyeliner (it's so pretty!)
Dr. Hauschka Lemongrass Vitalising body wash
LAQA & Co. Lip pencil in Menatour (so not my color, it will be going on my swap board)
nyakio Kenyan Coffee Face Polish, Body Scrub, and Hydrating Face Oil
Perlier Shea Almond Body Cream
Other than the purple LAQA, I'm pretty happy with it!

Ohh thanks! I've never really paid attention to GET mainly cause I don't want to get ducked in lol
like @meganola said
/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> way worth the $16 I needed to add on to the $44 mermaid box, can't wait to see what the floral ones look like!haha kinda wish I hadn't looked either, was trying REALLLY hard to skip the mermaid box.....but the mirror and polishes were so pretty....and well tempt me with skullcandy and I was done for
I got the eyeliner but I bought it from benefit in an early preview. I can do a great wing in less than 30 seconds now and it doesn't budge all day nor does it transfer onto the top of my eye or crease. It is a thicker formula though. Overall, I definitely love it. Love it more than my HG Marc Jacobs eyeliner.
