Birchbox October 2012

[mellee]

I really think a lot of that has to do with genetics, though.  I'm 43, smoked several packs a day for 20 years, lost and gained a lot of weight several times, never used anything on my face and didn't even really clean my makeup off at night through my 20s, and I've got only one small line across the bridge of my nose and am guessed mid-30s all the time. *Shrug*

I would be happy with that. I was really hoping for the mascara though, and I hope I don't get anti aging I'm only 20 lol

Haha I wouldn't be the least bit suprised if they sent a 20 year old anti-aging cream. Hope you get the mascara! Your weight did seem a little bit higher than the other goop box.

I always get my tracking information but my box comes before its ever updated and its shows my box content before i get my box!  I opted for one of my accounts for GOOP and nothing for the other.  I also subbed to Glam bc the bag this month looks good!

For all the ladies who don't want anti-aging-stuff, I've been using eye cream since I was 16 and other preventative products since I was 20. I just turned 30 and I have nary a fine line or laugh line and my skin looks exactly like it did when was 20. I’d suggest using it if you get it because you don’t want your skin to crack like aged vinyl once you hit 30 a la Paris Hilton. I have tracking numbers for both my boxes, neither of which have updated. And I need more spoilers.

I actually use anti aging creme already. Its not that I wouldn't use it eventually, I just want something more fun /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Wacky.  That particular url redirects to the main page, which usually means the placeholders aren't up yet, but when I change the 2 to other things, it 404s up to 39.  Almost forty variations!

Hmmmm.... I think I MIGHT have this one coming. My weight is .5030  this weight was close.I HOPE it was this one

Chantecaille Faux Cils Mascara (nice sample size)
DDF Wrinkle Resist Plus Pore Minimizer (that smallish tube size that DDF always has)
Orofluido Beauty Elixir (decent sized sample)
Embryolisse Anti-Aging Cream (2 foil packets)
Lemon Zest Luna Bar

The projected delivery date of my Goop box is Thursday. I hope it comes Wednesday b/c I go out of town on Thursday! Anyhoo, the weight of my box is .4660. I hope this is a box with a gloss and a beauty blender and/or Essie polish. I've never tried the beauty blender before so I'd like to see what the hub bub is about...

 

[BarbieZ]

Ooohhhhh.....I also really don't want a Beauty Blender.  I don't wear foundation (I'm extremely lucky in that I just don't need it.  A light dusting of powder is enough coverage for me.).  Boo.

Spoiler #3

 October Box Spoiler #3: We’re so excited about this Birchbox exclusive product. The pomegranate and fig scent will make you want to eat it, but you can’t. Can you guess what it is?

my box weighs the same & i am 18 year old college student. i'm praying that this box has the essie in it!

I'm laughing so hard because once again on fb people see the nail polish color and assume it is nail polish! (when clearly they are talking about the object IN HER HAND)

(they just posted about this nail color on instagram)

They already revealed what it is, and it's for the transformation boxes, not goop:

What a bummer! Would have LOVED to get that! (getting gooped i think)

Ahahaha I'm the opposite. Pretty sure I'm getting a non-Goop box (I opted out) and this is pretty much the last thing I want. But for those of you getting a beautyblender who don't want it, I will gladly take it off your hands! I have lots and lots up for trade. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[melonz]

I would love the lip butter!. I opted in for Goop... hope I get the bb...

 

[nelliebelle1197]

That is the weight roughly of mine and I already got the beauty blender.

That sounds like it might be one of the boxes with the beauty blender and lip gloss. There are a few photos somewhere above.

Received my shipping email this morning but I don't think I'll see updates for a bit due to the holiday. I'd really like to know my box weight!

 

[murflegirl]

No shipping email yet. My shipping is in my account but hasn't updated - I figure it won't since it's Columbus Day.
