I'm getting:

- Evologie Stay Clear Cleanser

- Color Club Gala Gems Nail Polish

- Davines Milk (Always wanted to try Davines)

- English Laundry for Her (Had it in an ipsy bag, but the whole thing leaked in transit. boo. But now I get to smell it. And I think the sample is BIG)

- Revealed 2 Palette (Was drooling over UD N3 for the longest time until Revealed 2 was released last week. Was going to order, but hoped that BB would sample it first so I could test it out. YAY!)

Pretty satisfied with this month's box. I wish there were more products, but I always get 5-product boxes.

 
Here's my box (48):

Nothing special, but I'm getting the Laqa so I'm happy.

 
I'm pretty sure that all of the items aren't showing up yet.  I saw a 4 item box when I looked at their web site in my iPad's browser and my laptop browser, but when i checked the box contents in the iPhone app, there was a fifth item.

My fifth item was the Miss Jessie's Multicultural Curls, and that doesn't even appear in their shop yet.

 
Okay, so glitch is over and my contents are up. Five item box, but last month I got a seven item, so I can't complain.

LAQA Lip Lube (the name of this makes me cringe/giggle) Pencil - Already got in purple in another box, so hoping for another color

Gilchrist & Soames Body Lotion - meh

English Laundry Signature for her - Been fairly perfume free so I can't complain if I get it once in a while

Caudalie Serum - Excited to try this.

Dr. Hauschka Body Wash - Curious to meh about this (if that makes sense to anyone but me! )

Still no necklace on the promo btw.

3 Boxes for me this month (whoops, couldn't pass up the $5 deal):

1. Box #34
Coastal Scents Revealed 2 - Of course I just got the full sized palette yesterday

LAQA & Co. - Received the coral last month. Crossing my fingers for any other color!

Egyptian Magic Skin Cream - Super excited to try this!

Vasanti - Sampled in the past; good to get a spare.

Harvey Prince Hello - Whatevs. This particular scent is not for me.

2. Box #Not sure yet as Multicultural Curls is not loaded into the shop

Miss Jessie's Multicultural Curls - I use Miss Jessie's products on my hair so I'm excited to try something new

Liz Earle - Pumped to have a back up!

Egyptian Magic Skin Cream

Cynthia Rowley Lip Stain - Looks like I'm getting the more neutral shade.

Antica Farmacista Bath & Shower Wash - Whatevs.

3. Box #22

Evologie Stay Clear Cleanser

Cynthia Rowley Eyeliner - Hoping for black. Received the silver already.

Color Club Gala Gem's - Ugh. Not for me, but have received the green one already.

Davines Ol/All in One Milk - Excited to try

English Laundry Perfume

Davines Shampoo

Davines conditioner

All in all, I can't complain.

 
I'm getting box 25:

Egyptian Magic

Cynthia Rowley Creamy Lip Stain

Antica Farmacista Bath & Shower Wash

Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish

Miss Jessie's Multicultural Curls

I like this box.  I've been curious about the Egyptian Magic, so I'm glad I got that.  I love shower gels, so that's cool.   I'm always happy to try any curl enhancer, and I haven't settled on a HG face wash, so the Liz Earle is good.

The only thing I'm 'meh' about is the lip stain.  I've yet to find a stain that I liked, they always make my lips look and feel dried out.

 
ok both my boxes are 4 item boxes, and both my boxes are different anyone else have this bad luck?

Box twins! I hope that means this box has the pink laqa! I don't really want the purple one and would probably try to trade it for another color.  I totally understand the curious to meh lol I just hope its a bottle because it is seriously hard to open foils in the shower once they get all slippery :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Ugh my box contents will not load. The same thing happened last month and it was super late shipping so I hope this is not a repeat!

Could still be the purple because I received it on another subscription that I have since cancelled. Really hoping for another color, but if I get purple again I have a friend who will likely appreciate it. 

And YES I agree totally! I don't mind foils (don't love them, but whatever) but I really don't like foil shower samples! I almost always end up not using them because it is just not happening with wet hands and I never remember to open them prior to entering the shower, that would be too easy! LOL

Hmm...I mean one of my boxes has 4 items, but it's already shipped - so doesn't that mean that they know what's inside???

 
Okay-- so both my boxes finally loaded up all the way! Both are 7 items which is GREAT except they are nearly identical boxes... Shucks :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Also, I just realized the shampoo sample I got (and will be getting again) is curl enhancing shampoo. I have (very) straight hair, as indicated in my profile. Hmmm.

ETA: it just dawned on me that yesterday, after using the curl shampoo, I thought to myself that my hair seemed wavier than usual considering I hadn't put any product in it. Maybe that stuff works even on straight hair?? I'm always trying but ultimately failing to achieve that wavy beach look, so if this is the case I'm pumped!

box 21...  seems like 2 foil packs, but hey, 7 items to review... 

Harvey Prince Hello - haven't gotten perfume in ages, so I won't complain too much...
LAQA & Co. Sheer Lip Lube Pencil 
Davines OI / All in One Milk - I absolutely HATED the smell of the OI shampoo & conditioner, so not so excited for this, but whatever
Davines Love Curl Enhancing Shampoo - cool - wanted to try the Love line...
The Aloe Source Vitamin C Antioxidant Crème 
Davines Love Smoothing Conditioner - ditto above, however, why do they send so much more shampoo than conditioner?  I use at least 2x as much conditioner as I do shampoo!

ETA: box twin with above!

I'm getting box 24, which is a whooping seven items. I feel like they just handed me $7. They must know I am saving up for that Atelier cologne.



Egyptian Magic Skin Cream 4oz I've heard good things, and read bad reviews. It will be good to try.
Cynthia Rowley Beauty Eyeliner It looks like we are getting the black, I'll give it to my mom, because she will appreciate it.
English Laundry Signature for Her – 3.4 oz. I thought I had already sampled this, but that was the No. 7. I will try this.
Nexxus® Color Assure™ Pre-Wash Primer SLS shampoo and conditioner set? I'll pass
Nexxus® Color Assure™ Vibrancy Retention Shampoo pass
Nexxus® Color Assure™ Vibrancy Retention Conditioner pass
Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish™ Hot Cloth Cleanser Starter Kit I've heard good things.
 
:) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> There's nothing I was super excited about, in this box, but seventy points is nothing to sniff at. Plus that eyeliner is a great thing to get in a BB, even if I already have too much eyeliner. I appreciate the effort on this one.


 
Lmao, went from June box, then it reverted to May and now it says my first box is shipping soon and this is like my 5th month with BB. FIX MY BOX BB. Please. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
