I am really happy BB placed the body serum in a little ziploc baggie, because it definitely leaked all over the inside of the baggie. However, since it was closed, it didn't get all over anything else. Yayyy! Also, I don't know if everyone getting box 9 will have the same fragrances, but mine was Chamomile. The Mox was the pom/fig, but I haven't seen anyone get a different flavor. I'm assuming the pom/fig will be the selected flavor for everyone who receives this, since it is exclusive to BB.

 
I got box 3 and 9 waiting on them but checked my site.  I think I will be closing one account it has been disapointing and not really worth it.

 
Would someone who gets a bath bomb mind comparing it to a Lush bath bomb that they've tried? Debating whether or not to get the one in the Birchbox store, or wait until my next trip to Lush to pick one up.

 
I couldn't help it and had to see what box I'll be getting:

 I -think- it's box 12 but can't be sure.  Getting:

-Masqueology eye mask

-Masqueology 7D moisture cream

-Masqueology Masque Cleanse

-Stila all over shimmer liquid luminizer

-One Love Organics body serum

-MCMC Fragrance Phoenix Eau de Parfum.

My shipping info updated though I haven't gotten an email yet, and my box weighs .7450, which is heavier than any other box, yet the picture of my box shows a bunch of packets/single use items, so a bit confusing.  Either there's a TON of packets in there, the picture's misleading, or they're being generous and giving me a ton of tissue paper this month.
 
i really really really wish birchbox would start PAYING ATTENTION to the profiles!!!!

someone with curly hair does not need volumizing/texturizing spray!!!!

and im getting it in BOTH accounts....... so those are definately up for trade willing to trade for almost anything so if anyone wonts it PM me

edited... one has been spoken for... still looking for another to trade!!

That's strange. Your box weight is actually close to mine, which is 0.7489, and I'm getting box 5 since both the Oscar Blandi and cupcake are probably on the heavier side.

How do you apply the fibers when they are separate? Do they just stick to wet mascara, or do they have their own medium to bind them?
They stick to wet mascara :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> So it's best to do one eye at a time to make sure your mascara doesn't dry out. Apply 1 layer of mascara, dab some fibers on, apply another layer of mascara.
 
If anyone sees a 20% code (20foryou or something), can you let me know?  I have some things I really want to buy but don't really want to pay full price for, and I know I don't have an anniversary code coming my way.

I have the exact same box, and my box only weighs .4something, Odd. 
 
GAH! So my account has switched over to November but still no tracking number for me

 I'm glad BB has really really seemed to step it up this month, except for the mens cologne, broken eyeliners and spilled body oils. 

 
Mine!

By the list and spoilers Zadi put out, it looks like box 2? The masquelogy items are only in a few boxes..
 
Sifter jars:  I get all of my stuff like this from Pilot Vials or Sunburst Bottle, depending on exactly what and how many I'm looking for!  It can take a little digging around (sifters are with the jars on the PV site, but they're under Accessories > Funnels and Fitments on the SB site, for example), and they don't both have *exactly* the same things, but there are a lot of containers on here that would address quite a few issues we have with samples, like mini atomizers (at PV but not SB) for all of those perfume samples that aren't in sprayers.  I advise against all plastic bottles except the Natural Plastic bottles on the SB site for lotion, by the way.  The pretty colored and clear bottles just aren't as flexible, so they're harder to squeeze and get the last bit of lotion out.

I'm getting this box too (box 2) and my weight is .615 - that IS odd, lol. 
 
My Oct box is still up on my second account and my tracking number is still blank....I had tracking for 4 days until yesterday and then boom the number just vanished....odd....I want to know!

 
Did anyone else with a cupcake get their boxes yet? ): What condition was your cupcake in?

mine came crushed. It's still mostly in one piece and usable but not exactly giftable, which is what I had been planning on doing with it... I just feel bad asking for another one when it's in fact usable... just not regiftable. : I guess I'm just trying to see what other people's cupcakes are like and if this was just an anomaly

 i would definitely complain so  they should package them better.

 
I have 2 subscriptions and both are still showing the October box.   I'm starting to get a little mad, since it seems that a lot of people already have thier boxes and I can't even see what I'm getting.  I understand that some boxes are shipping late due to the big storm, and I'm ok with that.  I just want my boxes to update on the Birchbox website.  I'm beginning to wonder if they forgot me!

My cupcake was in perfect condition. Looked good enough to eat.

HOWEVER I took a bath dropped it in when it was 2/3 full and nothing happened. No bubbles, color water change, no different scent in the air, no skin softer than usual. It dissolved into absolutely nothing. What a dud and I am so glad I did not add this to my shopping cart when the holiday store opened up.
