Yeah that was a fun surprise.... I always check ingredients before I use stuff, because I do have allergies, but somehow that one slipped past me...

I got box 9, and I'm pretty happy! Not over the moon, but happy enough to stay subscribed for another month
The mascara is just ok, which is a bit of a let down. Maybe it's just my tube, but it is SUPER dry and does nothing for lash volume and very little for length. Still, I'll throw it in my work bag for emergencies.
I'm kind of MEH about getting cologne for my lifestyle extra. I don't like the implication about having a man in your life, etc. BB is something I do for myself, I don't have any interest in getting stuff for my husband. That's why he has his own BB sub! Still, it's better than yet another nasty bar! Chocolate would have been nice, but I ordered the sample pack along with my cleanser to tip me over the $25 mark for free shipping.
I'm hoarding my points and waiting for my 6 month code next month. Hoping to streeeeetch those points and get myself something luxurious

I read this completely wrong! I read it as "there are 20 small tubes of lube" ... I was like what the heck, BB has gone too far lol

I decided to try the men's cologne on for myself, since I enjoyed the smell and it's kind of clean and light... and I dropped the vial on the bathroom floor, which of course shattered the vial and spilled the entire contents all over the tile.
I was very sad for about one minute. The fragrance disappeared so quickly, however, even with it being all over my hands and arms and the floor, that I felt as though it was a message: don't love this so much, because the staying power is zero. Oh, well. It did smell lovely on me, not masculine at all, fwiw.

UGH,
Just logged in and looked at my box and it's so terrible.
Soyjoy bar... I don't eat Soy. Gross.
Banana's and BoBabs. That's nice but I already got that in my Sample Society. So really? Not even a different scent?
Another perfume sample...boring. I loved the last one, but again. nothing special at all.
A mascara sample from some place I've never heard of, and the same Oscar brand of Hair Stuff that's been in 900 million different boxes already.
I feel like mine is just a weird mix of crap that they threw together because they had it on hand and it doesn't really go together at all. I'm really not thrilled with any of it.
they are good brands I just personally already have repeats of those things and don't really think they're new or exciting.

Still no tracking number or box description for me.

Come to think of it, I didn't get a tracking # via email but I do see it in my profile. I didn't get my 20% off promo code for the hubby's 6th month anniversary either. I did get my tracking for the order I placed though. Odd.

Okay, I didn't mean this literally. It was kind of a joke because of how happy a lot of people seem to be about getting chocolate.

But it also goes to prove the point that we are all different folks, with different needs--which is why some of us generally have no complaints about BB, while others (and this is NOT directed at you, btw) are almost always irritated with BB

I got chamomile and I really dont care for the scent. If anyone gets neroli and doesnt want it please pm me! I would be interested in either trading or buying it off of you because I like the neroli scent in general and Chamomille was way to herby for me. I was using the caldrea sea salt and neroli earlier and I just love that scent!

I think it's because I've been trying to be optimistic all of these months with saying "next month will be better", when I changed my profile to be more hip a few months ago the boxes have actually gotten worse. I would have loved the box with the mascara in it, once I saw that I had hope that I'd get something similar...

I somehow got box 1 and box 2, which means that I'm getting:
2x Masqueology revitalizing eye gel
2x Masqueology 7D moisture cream
2x Masqueology masque cleanse
2x MCMC fragrance phoenix eau de parfum
2x stila all over shimmer liquid
1x One Love Organics aromatic body serum and
1x Kiehl's creme de corps
Assuming the stila is a color I'll use and the perfume is wearable, I'm thrilled! I'll use every single item, and I actually didn't want to try anything else. (except for the other Masqueology products and the chocolate) I've collected loads of the brightening masks they sent out a couple months ago through the trade thread because I like them so much.
I'm not really sure how I made it out this month without getting food bars, men's perfume, mascara I'd let go bad, lip gloss I wouldn't wear or blue nail polish, but I'm definitely thankful!
