I opted to not answer...so it is a toss-up as to what I'll get.  Maybe I'll even resist spoilers (doubt it.)  

Getting excited though!   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

If you get a chance to try out the soy body whip I'd definitely do it - I'm IN LOVE with the sample I got!

I would love the new Tarte Lipsticks!

I've never tried anything from Tarte but I keep meaning to, so that would be awesome! I always read great reviews on their products. Has BB ever featured Tarte? Since I'm pretty new to the world of sampling subscriptions I have no idea haha.

I'm in the minority and generally pretty happy with my BB's every month. So, yes, we're paying for new and interesting brands/samples, but I'm good blowing $20 for two accounts and points towards purchases. I'm up to 200 points on each account and trying to curb the urge to spend them on a BB cream and Vasante enzyme cleanser lol. Here's to hoping I can wait til closer to the holidays. I'm curious to see how many box variations come out this month and if there'll be a huge difference between regular boxes and the Goop ones! C'mon spoilers! I'd love to see some Avene thermal water or more Euro brands for the Goop box..

The Teen Vogue Box a few months back featured a full sized Tarte lipsurgence

Their gel eye liner is awesome! My go to for the perfect black liner. I also love their lipsurgences and Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara.

Completely OT, but Sephora has an amazing deal on a Tarte LipSurgence set--five full size for $34

I saw that this morning.  Right after I posted on the Oct low/no buy, I went to Sephora to see all the new value sets.  Torture myself much?

I just checked out some reviews from that box and man, I'm jealous, especially compared to the September box! Wish I had found out about BB sooner. Now I'm afraid my expectations are gonna be to high for this month haha.

Clinique's black gel eyeliner is my HG, but I'm always open to trying new black liners/shadows at least once! I'd love to try their lipsurgences but I have 3 or 4 chubby sticks from Clinique to work my way through too, so I haven't made the investment yet. That's such a cute name for a mascara! I'm such a sucker for cheesy makeup names haha.

I was in the same boat. I emailed customer service yesterday and asked if I could opt in to the Goop box, they replied today that they took care of it for me.

[kawaiimeows]

[soccerkidtlk]

I still have yet to receive the Goop box email... What's up with birchbox's emailing system?! I'm kind of annoyed about it.
