 Yippee - got my shipping notice for box 3.

I ended up getting my Love With Food Box and my Ipsy bag last night. 

(This months Love With Food was AWESOME btw!  If anyone is looking for a different kinda sub box - this one rocks!  They donate a meal to a child with every purchase!)

I got my first love with food box yesterday and I love it!  And it says for November and December instead of 1 meal they'll be donating 2 meals!!!!  So great

me too. It sucks.  I don't even have tracking info online anymore.  It was there a few days ago (un updated of course, but at least I knew it was there and could update at some point)

I know!! 

 I wish that they would do it randomly t/o the year too.  If you make a purchase on their website - they also use that to help donate.  I totally got two things from my box this month.  Last month I ended up getting more honey straws.

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!

yea I have a mini dry shampoo, so I know they sell little minis, I'll stop by ulta and see what they have.

I would love to know what i'm getting.. but of course my box still shows OCTOBER. Birchbox is on its last straw with me!

 

[JimmyJazz]

I got the Caldera hand soap samples from BB and from their website - the samples are great because you can get a few uses out of them. Nice soap - but I get a better deal over at Bath and Body Works.  (It's scary how many soaps I have under all of my bathroom cabinets.)

Box 3 for me too.  Is there an unusually large number of box 3s, or is it just me?  I just got my shipping notification e-mail today. 

 

[lovelywhim]

I got my 6 month anniversary code! I think I'll grab the OLO Aromatic Body Serum! I'm seriously in love with that stuff.

It seems like that doesn't it?  

I'm sure by tomorrow night a lot more people will have their shipping notices.  They did say 50% of boxes will be shipped out late (the 15th or 17th I think)

O.T. but not really: I know other places are late with mailings- I got my Comcast bill late (Got it last night in the mail - says it was due on the 7th of Nov...now they have nasty CS reps ick...ok that was OT)

 

[JimmyJazz]

I'm curious about what the hype is...does it just smell good or is it just awesome on the skin?

 

[kat46]

I received my 6 mo anniversary code today, but my box page is still showing my Oct. box... no shipping info. NADA.

 

[elviscupcake]

Any consensus on which box numbers haven't shipped yet?
 

 

[Lyndsey Marie]

hi there! im new to this group!! been getting BB for about a year now. how do you girls know what number your box is? i did log in on the 10th cause i had forgotten to review last months yet and saw my spoilers. i JUST got sent me shipment email today /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> sad but hopefully it will get here soon. ive noticed all the people i refer get thiers before mine. and the newer referrals get thiers before the older referrals. think they ship to new members first? i get mine later and later evey month.

 

[Steffi]

Yeah, box arrived today.  I got the box they said I was.  I'm even LESS pleased now that I got it.

The Masqueology 7D Moisture Cream and the Revitalizing Eye Gel are both single use packets, and this time they only sent ONE.  The moisturizer feels like there's almost nothing in it.

I was also supposed to get the cleanser, but it is not in my box.  I'll be emailing soon.

Perfume is the usual perfume vial.  No idea how it smells since I've got sinus problems and no sense of smell right now.

The body serum's a decent size at least, as is the Smashbox luminizer.  I can't use the luminizer though. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  It'll go up for trade shortly.

 

[Steffi]

Needless to say this box is as bad as August's, when I got those tanning packets and nothing of any value.

I got my box today! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It was #4

The OLO serum was in rose and it smells amazing, but it was spilled in the baggy. Did anyone else email them about this?

The ModelCo gloss will not be used at all since I already have one from IPSY and since my lips are pigmented you can't tell that I'm wearing it.

Either way I was happy with the Oscar Blandi, /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Oh and the JohnVarvatos scent smells really good!

A very small amount spilled into the bag mine came in but you couldn't tell there was any missing from the spray tube. I didn't email them about it. If you're missing a lot then you should contact CS. I think that a little bit of the serum spilling out was expected though which is why it came in the bag.
