That's unfortunate. I love lip stains so I was interested in trying it. But I wasn't impressed with the CR eyeliner or the swatches I saw of her palettes either. I get a very "cheap" quality impression from it.
I actually really like the lip stains & eyeliners. But I have to agree on the eye shadows they're very chalky & lack pigmentation.

 
This is going to sound way out there, but I've been more interested in birchbox's lifestyle type items more so than their beauty selections lately, to me, their curation has gotten flat, boring, and predictable. I would love to see them do a lifestyle type box, like popsugar style. I'd love a box with the whish, the shawl, and some deluxe samples (and/or that Ruffian summer polish).
I agree. Their makeup selections always seem so... similar.

 
I always have fun this time of the month...ruling out potential boxes based on previous samples. (Got it, got it, got it, don't got it, got it). So far, unless they mess up, I can only get box 1, 2, 7, or 10.  

 
I feel like I'm not seeing anything new or exciting in these box variations so far. Same old same old.

 
Given Birchbox's track record for add on's, I think I'd rather spend the extra 15$ to get it from the actual brand, if I were really really wanting the shawl.  

I still don't get why the men's boxes are only 20$, and they get 20-50$ items quite frequently from what I've seen, and they don't have to pay any add on costs.  Why can't they just make a women's box for 20/25$ and have the add on item already in it.  Then people can choose to buy the bigger box, or stick with the cheaper regular box.
I would definitely spring for the bigger box.

 
I would also pay for the bigger box.  My husband gets BB Man and for his June box they sent an email asking him to pick/reserve his Lifestyle item from 3 different things.  One was a double pack of liner socks, a mystery or standard item, or a wallet, but the point was that it wasn't costing me any extra and he specifically got to choose the big ticket item in his box.  Why can't they do that for us?

 
This is O/T, but I know a lot of us were introduced to Whish products via BB! My Costco has a pack of two large Whish shaving creams + the after shave gel for $20! And a 30 pack of the Whish deodorant/inhibitor wipes for $15 :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
i wish i had a costco membership! my access is limited to when my parents visit and if we have time. I want a churro and I want those wipes!

 
1) I got my free apron GWP in the mail today.

2) They sent me two!

One for my dad & one for the boyfriend. Thanks, Birchbox! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
Me too!  I never got a shipping notice so I wrote it off.  Today I picked up my mail, and there was a birchbox.  I was all worried I'd ordered something without remembering, lol, and didn't know what it was.  Opened it up and saw it was the apron.  My husband liked it, but is sick right now so the enthusiasm is limited.  

I ended up closing my second box account for now.  I have my main account and my 3rd account (which is still waiting on a necklace!).  I'm excited for June.  Hopefully I'll get some good stuff.  I wouldn't mind some of the evologie in one of my boxes.

I closed two of my accounts out of three for this month. I feel a little bad about saying this, but I just can't justify giving them $30 in June without receiving 300 points back for signing up. But hey at least it means I'll spend a little less in June.

Every dollar counts! :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I got irritated my free necklace has yet to show up, no ace gift, and had/have a bunch of full size order issues going on.  I only left my 3rd account open to ensure it doesn't mess up getting my necklace or something.  

 
oh noes... more #4 stuff.  I seem to get that in every box when they are putting them in boxes

And the prices on the addons seem a bit redonkuous to me, especially for the pinch bag set.  Now if it was $10 or if the scarf was $15-20 I may bite.
