Birchbox November 2012

[MarieS]

My box is on it's way but it weighs .6880.  Anyone seen this one yet?  I'm liking the ones already received but I know that's not mine.

me too. it's mean to have a tracking number in my account summary when there's no real tracking info.

I'm not wowed by anything. I've received most of the items (except the hair powder) already. Thankfully already received that cologne sample so *hopefully* that means I'm off the hook. I thought it smelled like Drakkar Noir (he's still stuck in the 70s), which my dad wears, but he was not so happy when I gave it to him and said that. My boyfriend hated the smell. The only thing I don't want is mascara. I have it coming out of my ears from all my sample boxes.

I've had my tracking for a few days now but it isn't updating at all, I'm disappointed. So far all the boxes I've seen seem to be a step in the right direction, hope mine is worth the wait!

Yippeee! Mine finally updated!! I should be getting mine on November 14. Anyone else have a 0.6870 shipping weight that has received theirs? As much as I love Birchbox and getting my little present to myself every month, I don't know if my heart can take this anticipation every month. I really, really suck at surprises.

I think I've checked the website 20 times in the last 2 days waiting for my shipping info to update.

Those of you who received your boxes, I take it you also received a shipment notice? I haven't received so much as an email, and I'm in NY too!

My box came!  I got the lulu organics hair powder, ModelCo mascara, mox lip butter, one love organics serum (glad tehy put this in a little plastic baggy because it was greasy so I think it's been leaking a bit), and the john varvatos cologne.

I'm super happy with my box contents!  I will use everything except the cologne, but it smells great too!

Oh, my shipping weight was .4542.  I think this is the first time in months I've gotten my box before I knew the contents.  It was a fun surprise!!

I got tthe ModelCo Mascara, Jouer Fragrance Cornucopia, Lulu Organics Hair Powder, étoile Diamond Dust Polish in Frosted Berryy, and....a frickin Cranberry SoyJoy bar.

It's not a punishment box by any means (the mascara alone is full size and wortth 24 dollars) but it just isn't that great for me, personally. I use mascara, but it's not a favorite item of mine. I have fairly long lashes and don't really notice a difference when I use different mascaras. A 5 dollar one works as well as a 30 dollar one for me, so while I appreciate getting a ffull size item in my box, I would have sacrificed the mascara for aa smaller sample of something I would love.

The Jouer perfume is the cutest thing ever. It's a teeny tiny rollerball. It smells like an actual flower, which is great, just nott for me.

The dry shampoo is ok. I'll probably try it. I've used dry shampoos with less than optimal results (and scents! Why do they make them smell so bad/strong?) Hopefully I'll love this one, I've heard good things.

The nail polish is a really pretty berry color with very fine, subtle sparkle. It is a little darker than I usually go for, but as far as nail polishes go (I'm not a huge nail polish person) it's a good pick for me.

Then there's the SoyJoy bar. Grrr. I have been wanting to try the Chuao chocolate FOREVER. ESPECIALLY the Honeycomb kind. I found a code to order from their website and could get a sample pack for 2 bucks, but shipping is THIRTEEN dollars. No way. Birchbox has a sampler on their site, but it's in the old Chuao packaging and I'm afraid they're been sitting in a Birchbox warehouse forever aand won't taste so great. Hopefully. They'll put up new stuff since they're in boxes this month. Meanwhile, if anybody doesn't want their chocolate (ha! Longshot, I know.) I'll take it off your hands!

Sorry ffor the super lonng post and the lack of pictures! I can't post them from my phone. Hope you all love your boxes!

Have you looked for Chuao at Walmart? I have seen it at our local Walmart before! The Honeycomb one just might be my favorite.

I feel like all the boxes I've seen so far have the dry shampoo powder in them, which means I won't be getting these ones! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Waiting to see what the other ones look like! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
 

 

[diana16]

Every time someone says their tracking # updated I go back to the website to check mine but its NOTHING! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> its okay though but i wish i knew what i was getting

 

[bluemustang]

On Instagram I saw someone got the Mascara and a nail polish! That is big for Birchbox

 

[kawaiisquawks]

My box is already in Coppell so there may be a chance I'll get it by tomorrow or Monday! It looks like it'll be delivered at least 1 day early of the projected date. Can't wait!

I saw a youtube vid from someone who got the mascara and nail polish in their box.  They both looked full sized!
