Birchbox November 2012

[classybroad]

Hi all I got my box today. I was excited because it was really heavy. My only disappointment was instead of chocolate for the lifestyle extra I got soyjoy.

Anyway I already posted a review on my blog, link in the signature. Here is a spoiler photo.

It was .752 and the only thing that would have made it greater would have been chocolate!

Great box! I really want the texturizing spray hopefully I get it.

I clean my tub religiously just to take baths so I am really excited for the cupcake bath bomb. I am going to run out tomorrow and pick up an OK mag or people to read while I soak.

Got my box today, my weight was approx. .750 lbs. and I got

The Cupcake bath bomb thingy

ModelCo Mascara

Oscar Blandi Deluxe size texturizing spray

Cladrea Hand Soap (2 paper packets samples)

SoyJoy Bar

The pillowy envelope for gifting

Coupon for $15 off  custom-made shoes website

Stella Cadente Miss Me Parfum spray sample
Overall I am happy. Prolly won't use the mascara and the bath bomb, but I love the hand soap, although I probably won't buy fancy hand soap. Excited to try the hairspray and perfume! Soyjoy is going to the boys. I am eyeing a few things from the shop, too bad most of the stuff I love have been out of stock forever! I've saved up so much points to get a few things for virtually free!

Looks like we are box twins. Funny how the lifestyle extra we are going to give away to the men lol.

yay! thank you! and i was also wondering if anyone who has a po box could tell me if its going to go in the actual po box? or do i go up to the lady and ask for it?

It would depend on how big your PO Box is.  Mine is a smaller one, and I have to go to the counter to ask for it (they put a card in my box to let me know its been delivered).  My sister has a large box, and hers goes right into her PO Box.  It just depends if the box will fit into the PO Box or not.

That's a good box! I only hope mine is close to this

You got a great box! I'd love to get the mascara. I always get tons of nail polish from birchbox that I don't want. Do you have a trade thread? if not I actually go to school in coppell so If you ever want to meet up and trade that would be cool with me!

I really want the lash extend! My lashes are super short and straight and been wanting to try those. Also the cupcake bath bomb sounds nice! But I don't have a tub, how sad /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

My birchbox was shipped already! Maybe it will be up by tomorrow on the site. Does anyone know if the monthly box pictures are posted somewhere? The ones by Zadidoll

Ahhhhhhh!  I have no self control.  I'm "enjoying" the evening with my friggin period so I just used my Birchbox points to order those bath cupcakes and the chocolate samples. 

 

[classybroad]

I REALLY want to order the chocolate but I already bought from birchbox this week and did not select that because I was hoping for it in my box. Does anyone know of a store that sells them?

And I wonder how many samples you get in the monthly box. I am so jealous of whoever gets.

 

[astokes]

I'm excited for this month. I hope to see more spoilers soon so I can narrow down what my box contents will be!

Hoping for the cupcake. : D

 

[Joelle Johnson]

are welcome boxes different from the monthly boxes?

 

[ashleyanner]

Looking through the pictures, the boxes don't look too bad...so much better than last month.  And...trying not to jinx myself here (it's probably too late for that), but there are a few things in some boxes I hope to avoid...like the cranberry soyjoy bar, another twistband!, and once again...BB's house special...Color Club.

It seems like I've seen them at Whole Foods.  If they don't have that specific brand, they will definitely have similar bars (Vosges and Theo are the two brands I can recall off the top of my head)!  At the stores in my area, sometimes they're with the rest of the candy, and sometimes they're over by the cheese, of all places.

I went though all of the images I could find on the cloudfront site, and I noticed that every box had stila, Modelco (mascara or lipgloss), or both.  So I'm going to play pick-your-box now.  It looks like this month's standard formula is one makeup item, one body/hair item, one face/nail item, one fragrance item, and one lifestyle item, so based on those preview pictures, I would pick:

• Modelco lip gloss
• the blue etoile nail polish (I will always go for a blue nail polish whenever that's an option!)
• one love organics body serum
• jouer roll-on perfume oil (if I have to have a fragrance, I'll always pick the oil because I can't wear alcohol-based stuff)
• chuao chocolate 

And this pretty much guarantees I will never get any of these things!
