Does the Stella Cadente perfume smell like baby powder to anyone else? I spritzed some on the back of my hand and I find it really gross lol
Yes! I don't like it at all. But I agree, it was packaged very nicely.

and can i just say

that ish works amazing!

i kinda wish I would have gotten a sample so I can take it travelling espescialyy since we are flying to New York on friday for a birthday party which always requires me to park a lot more product than if we were going not for a party... hmm... has anybody seen the small size for sale anywhere? 
I could have sworn Ulta sold a travel size? I could be mistaken, though. I know they have some of the Oscar Blandi products in travel sizes, at least!

 
Still waiting for my page and tracking to update.. Go away, October!! Seems like a lot of box 3s are being mentioned, I wonder if it will be that?

 
Received my shipping email and my box is showing up but as usual like every other month the tracking information isn't up.. Not sure why but always seems the tracking numbers attached to my account are invalid. Doesn't really bother me though, especially in months like these when I'm not really looking forward to the box

I have a tracking number that still has not updated on one box yet and my other account still shows oct. Box! Is this going on with anyone else?

 
Still no update on my page or tracking number. Birchbox is starting to annoy me. Last month they "forgot" to enter my tracking number into the system so I never got an update.

 
Ditto, my box still shows my crappy October Goop one, no tracking number listed, and no email.

 
My October box is still showing too. I called on Monday and they weren't able to tell me what box I'm getting. I was just told to wait it out and that they are sorry.

 
Still no update and no tracking and no email for me either! argghhh!! I emailed them on the 10th and have not gotten a reply back either. 

 
I am receiving box #30. My shipping information has not updated yet either. I have also not received the email. The picture finally loaded, so that's a good sign. I am sure they are still working on getting them shipped out. The email from earlier in the month stated that some boxes would be shipping as late as the 15th! So I am not worried yet..just anxious :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Still no shipping email.....still no tracking updates in my account....its like they're teasing me at this point- "Hey, here's what you're going to get....but we're going to make you wait a while to get it.  Sorries!"

But I did get my "other holiday I should be celebrating" email with my discount for being a subscriber for nine months.  So I got that going for me....which is nice.

 
Does anyone know if you can use the 20% code for gift subscriptions? December will be my 6th month and I'm considering getting my sister a gift sub. I'm trying to decide between the 3 and 6 month and if the 20% off works on the gift subs I'll def go with the 6 month!

Does anyone know if they are sending out the different varieties/scents of the One Love Organics Aromatic Body Serum or will everyone get the lavendar scent?
I got the Neroli scent (blossom of the bitter orange tree). I am so thrilled b/c I LOVE citrus scents. I was worried I'd get the lavender - which I am not a huge fan of. I feel like BB hit it out of the park with my box this month between the One Love Neroli and the MCMC Phoenix scent (which also contains neroli).

LOL....I totally wrote that in my blog post early today.  It does have a powdery smell.  I didn't care for it at all but I thought the packaging was super cute :eek: /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />)


It is a VERY strong powdery scent.  It is also a "scrubber" meaning that it is very long lasting.  You can scrub that stuff off with soap and water, and a bit of the scent will remain.  It is too powdery for my taste, but the packaging was great.  I also like that it wasn't a fruity-floral.  I'm willing to try new stuff, but OMG, if I see another celebrity fruity-floral I might scream.
 
I called customer service today and they let me know that I'm getting box 18. Still no tracking number and my bb page is still stuck on october....has anyone received box 18?
