Birchbox November 2012

[heather4602]

I am really excited about this months boxes! But two of minr are the same so hopefully I can swap it! My other two boxes for my mom and mom-in-law are great also! It works out good for me because they get the skincare stuff out that I don't want and I get the rest! But I really wanted the Etoile polish and did not get it any of the box even though nail polish is my splurge item on three of the four boxes! But they are still great boxes! I am so glad bb came back with better stuff. Hopefully the sizes will be better and I will be excited about BB again! I'll put my box I want to trade in a spolier box and let me know if anyone wants to trade boxes, I would love the Etoile polish  but would trade for other boxes also! I hope everyone is excited as I am about their boxes!

That is quite an impressive lot of Lush products - the next time you move, remember to tell the real estate agent that a 'big tub' is a must!  
I have an equal sized stash at his place. I usually only like baths in the winter months, because where I grew up it was cold showers for me during the summer, hot baths and I would have had a heat stroke

yea i live in a new campus owned apartment building, it's my last year so I didn't want to deal with the hassle of finding an apartment around campus, its absurd here. I love our apartment its has a huge lofted living room and my bedroom windows faces this every night: Gorgeous sunsets over San Francisco /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 



can't complain. if the building we want to live in has an availability for a 3br in April then I know that our next place will have a huge tub, like gigantic /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I am the craigslist clairvoyant and have managed to find all our friends housing and office spaces, so I have this unit on our short list for next year. (us in master plus two other guys in each of the smaller rooms)

Gorgeous view!  The apartment that my boyfriend and I rent has a large tub...and that was definitely a selling point for me.  Boyfriend didn't realize how great it was until I drew up a bath just for him.

Oh, whoops! Thanks for letting me know.

Just checked my box...not a single thing in there that I'm excited to try. I'm getting: Oscar Blandi Pronto texture and volume spray (my hair is curly and needs more texture and volume like I need a foot disease), Miracle Skin Transformer Vanish Instant Imperfection Corrector (I'm 24 and don't have fine lines or discoloration yet; the only imperfections in my skin are the occasional blemish and I don't think it will do anything for that), Chuao Chocolatier Assorted ChocoPod (so sick of getting food in my BEAUTY box - and if I get the bacon one I am going to be SO ticked since I'm a veggie and can't even eat it then), Atelier Cologne Rose Anonyme Petite Cologne Absolue (I love rose, but I already have two rose perfumes that I adore and don't really need another), and Stila All Over Shimmer Liquid Luminizer (I just bought a highlighter/luminizer from Benefit). Thanks for nothing, Birchbox. Did you even READ my beauty profile? Definitely thinking of switching to Look Bag or Ipsy. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Working on the November list now. The pages went live around midnight but I went to bed.

GUYS! I have box octuplets or some crazy amount of people I match like that! 

Also, I don't think there's anything I'm allergic to in this box! Oh happy day!!!! 

I'm excited for this stuff. I needed a luminizer! YAY Birchbox.

It could be worse:  You could be getting TWO of these.  Yeah.  That would be me.

I'm getting box 9!



I'm psyched about trying the full size mascara, hair powder (I've been wanting to try it since it first popped up in BB), the OLO body serum (loved the way it sounded in the BB spoiler video), and the lip butter!
It looks like BB really stepped up this month. I signed my mom up for a gift subscription with my points this week, so I hope the welcome boxes for November are just as awesome as the regular ones.

. My box weighs .4970 and here are the contents:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Annick Goutal Petite Cherie vial-I know people have gotten this before and I was curious. OK, a little flouncy for my tastes. Masqueology Advanced 7D Solution-a really big plastic hypodermic with vit. D anti-aging cream. Might be good to use for administering meds to animals when it's empty. Impressive looking, anyway .20 oz. stila all over shimmer liquid luminizer-I'm not crazy about this type of product, I have enough shine. Nice size sample with a brush .05 oz Oscar Blandi Pronto Texture and Volume Spray- Seems like I've been getting Blandi something in most of my boxes lately. Good purse-size 1 0z. Beauty Extras: Masqueology Cleanse-face wash foil .03 oz. and Masqueology Serum Actif-anti-inflammatory mushroom and licorice extracts .03 oz. Not bad, could be worse, no food but no makeup either  

I got the same box, only my box weight was .5050! That's a big difference!

There is a store locator on the Chuao website.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Anyone interested in the Mox or Model co mascara? I'm getting two of each. I was looking for the Kiehl's creme de corps, bath bombs, and/or Jouer perfume.

Let me know! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

What color of Stila did everyone get?  Curious whether they sent everyone the same, or different.  I noticed in the shop that the try-me set has pink, but the full-size is Kitten instead.  Are either dupes of Highbeam, or are they pretty different?  (I have the full-size Stila luminizer #3, which claims to be a gold but is kinda a light peachy skin-tone.  REALLY pretty.  Caught it for $10 on a Hautelook sale one day.)

I think someone may have mentioned this, but the trio is cheaper on Sephora! Only $10, instead of $20, which is why I bought one set and don't mind not getting it in my BB lol.

They changed that a month or two ago.  Feedback is now on the "Write a review" link.  I poked around on it this morning, and it looks like if you get the old Feedback-style popup box, you are leaving feedback for your box contents, and you will get feedback points for it.  If you see "Write a customer review," it's not a box feedback review, and you don't get points for it.

wow the naked princess lip shine is totally sold out now. i wanting to get it now that i had a bunch of points saved up :[ didn't realize that many people wanted the $26 lip gloss!

I wouldn't recommend The Look Bag simply due to the fact that they don't work with beauty companies directly and buy from a 3rd party vendor. I would say if you're going to drop Birchbox then go with Sample Society or Ipsy.
