Birchbox October 2012

[mirandamanda]

I'm getting box 11. I really love that I'm getting the teas and the ddf cleanser, not so happy about the luna bar tho. Why tea AND a bar? So i can get my hands dirty when i attempt to apply the teeny tiny perfekt sample? And I'm really disappointed that the skin transformer is in a foil packet and not a tube. But the tea and cleanser really does make up for it all. (my box wt is .81) The caudalie I'm pretty meh about.

Getting box 23 with these stuff. I forgot about that email so they automatically put me in the TRansformation box. Anybody have the same box as mine? I saw the luminizer from other pages in this forum. It is somewhat the size of the theBalm blushes that I have, I think this is okay with me.

Something that's really bugging me is seeing a lot of posts (not necessarily here) complaining about not getting full sized products. I mean, really? We were never promised full sized products. It's so greedy to complain about that. 

  I agree soooo hard.  Birchbox never promised anyone a full sized product.

So basically if your box has an essie in it, it hasn't arrived (shipped?) yet.  It doesn't seem that anyone with the nail polish have even been able to get tracking info from UPS.  Hmmm.....

And for the record, I'm one of the box 2 peeps.

Ohioan in for the Cali box, if it ever starts I'd definitely subscribe /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I actually posted again after that with someone else's spoiler filled post. Notice I said it was similar in size (ie like 2 inches, thinner). As you can see in the following thread link.

hmm i'm not sure what you're getting at... i have both the mary lou manizer sample and an elf blush though and i would say the mlm is only about half the size of the elf blush (unfortunately it seems to have run off for the time being so i can't get a picture)

Quadruplets =]

I'm getting that box too, and I'm super stoked about it. Everything looks awesome. I must be in the minority, because I really don't mind foil packets.

my shipping info still hasnt updated and i got my email on monday..  its never not updated with in a day.. this is odd.... i see others are having this issue too? i wonder if the box didnt ship yet? is this the issue that is getting some the extra points?> any advice would be helpful....

This was not the issue I was having, I didn't even have a tracking number.  They emailed me to say my box would be late and I was receiving 100 points.  I have 4 subs.  I received one box today, 2 others have tracking numbers that have never updated, and one was just received with the email about my box shipping on the 13th.  I am doubting that the other 2 have shipped either.

Just finished skimming through all that I missed while I was at work.  Looks like we had a cat fight on our hands.  Too bad no one has gotten any Essie to polish those CLAWS with yet.

I honestly think the best thing about my birchbox this month was the opportunity to break out my tea set

I'm just confused as to why people are getting 100 points. I get that your box hasn't shipped, but I've had tracking for about 8 days now (finally got an email yesterday) and mine still hasn't updated. I just don't see how it's fair that boxes that won't be moving until Saturday get the points, when there's plenty of us who have been waiting already that won't get points. I mean, for all I know my box hasn't actually left anywhere. I'm just a bit confused about the reasonings there...?

When the tracking appears on the website it only means that they have assigned you a tracking number, they actually send it out when you get the email (amazon does this sometimes also).  I think these people are getting points because they try to guarantee the boxes will ship by the 10th and they know their's has not.  I think to complain about not getting credited for last month's fiasco now.  They are trying to change their policies for the better/learn from past mistakes and you are still witching?

Learning from past mistakes? They're giving SOME people waiting points and not others.
