Birchbox June 2014 - Spoilers!

[casey anne]

I'm actually getting that in my box this month!

Awesome! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it!

Umm...anyone else having major issues with the Birchbox website?

I went to review my items and on the first item it said that my profile didn't match or something.  Then it wouldn't accept my password, so I reset it.  And now my box contents and my box history doesn't match...

ETA: So I logged out, and then back in and that seemed to fix it.  Weird.

I was interested in the Pinch Clutch, but I heard the night mare getting boxes after the Kate Spade add on and didn't want to delay my box anymore than it already is. 

they sell them at nordstrom, jcrew, sephora,... and a lot of other places too!

Received box 26 https://www.birchbox.com/shop/birchbox-1/june-2014/june-2014-bb26

Love the items in it!!  It's a nice mix of products.  I already tried the nyakio body scrub (I like it, but it's too thick in the foil to squeeze out.  I scraped it out into a pot) and the nyakio face oil (I love this.  It reminds me of the marula oil I received in an earlier BB).

I got that nyakio trio last month and LOVED the face oil! Smells like sandalwood to me. My sample is maybe half gone... I never thought I'd use a face oil. Too bad it's $50.

FYI in case anyone was curious. I was able to review my items from my canceled account on my tablet for points but not from my computer. I'm glad I was able to because it was a 7 item box!

How do you review items? I can't seem to find it on my app on the iPhone. I can only read reviews. :/

I can't do it via the app either. I just go to birchbox.com on my phone and it works fine though.

I just signed up for Birchbox on June 5th. It says my box is still being processed. I know others have been receiving their boxes, any idea on how long it takes for a new subscriber to get their first box if signed up before the 10th? I really, really want to see what's in my first box, it's my first ever beauty sub box /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I apologize in advance if this can be found in the FAQs section, I didn't see it when I first looked.

Thanks!

You should have received an email confirmation when you ordered that will have a date of when yours should ship by. Usually it's around the 15th or 20th if you signed up in the same month. You should also be able to see what's in your box that same day.

I ordered on the 10th, and I have a shipping date of June 21st. This is probably a really stupid question -- where do I go to see what's in the box?

arrrrgh, the suspense of my account which i had to update the card on is killing me. last night the app updated and has the closed june box, but i can't "open" it, and it says "will ship by the 10th" (im sure this is just the standard loading page) but arrrgh.

I just re-subbed on a whim after being MIA for the last seven months. Can anyone tell me, if you re-sub, is your first month back sort of like a welcome box? I mean one that isn't supposedly "tailored" to your profile. I know they don't really match them, but in my pretend world, I like to think that they do. I am wondering if I just got whatever they had left in the warehouse, or if I need to completely revamp my profile in hopes I get something even remotely related to my interests.

I received my box today along with my extras.  I chose the Mott 50 scarf and the Whish CC Body Cream extras.  It all shipped in one box this time, which was good!

I tried the CC body cream on my left hand and I'm really impressed!  It has a light coconut fragrance that dissipates quickly, absorbs well and doesn't feel greasy, and leaves a really nice bronze-y shimmer on your skin.  I could definitely see using this on my arms, shoulders and legs this summer.  My only complaint is I wish it contained SPF. 

As far as my Birchbox, I got box 42 and it's just meh for me.  https://www.birchbox.com/shop/birchbox-1/june-2014/june-2014-bb42 

I'm curious about the Nyakio products and I love the packaging, but I really don't need any more Coola or body lotions or shower gels or black eyeliners.  I am happy to have 7 products to review, though!

I picked up a minimergency kit at sephora. i had kind of been wanting one for a while so i grabbed one while i was supposed to only be exchanging my anastasia dip brow for one with a lid that works.

its the silver stud muffin one, not quite as cute as the mermaid'y one. but still pretty.

I'm not sure if it is the same price now as before... but HSN had that face oil for sale cheaper than BB.  Birchbox was having issues last month with "getting the product in the warehouse" and was supposedly being taken off their shop page until further notice.  Is it available in the shop now? 

The oil is fantastic, I love it too.  I like how it hydrates and sinks in, without getting my pillow case all greasy or giving me breakouts.  The full size bottle does last a long time though, so the money spent goes a long way.  Doesn't help forking over all that at once, but at least it goes far.

i bought it last month with points. i remember waiting a while to pop back in there but it was worth the wait. it's my holy grail skin oil.

My kate spade necklace is on the move!!   They actually shipped it out - WOOT!

Can someone post the link to the trade forum? I want more Paulas Choice moisturizer!
