my best guess is that #21 is the last goop box and #22 is the first transformation box?

The descriptions for the boxes 1-21 all talk about transformation and halloween. Box 22 to the end talk about goop and their collaboration.

It also looks like Essie is going to be in the transformation boxes...

Thank You!  I mod podge them with scrap book paper then took the left over pieces and put it behind tag!  It took me an hour.  I really loved the boxes it seemed such a waste to throw them out so I decided to use them as storage.  59 cent scrapbook pages and a box of labels $3.00 and you have fancy storage.

it seems like they might have the headers backwards, because a lot of the early boxes have what are supposed to be goop featured products yet they have the transformation heading, yet things that have been featured on birchbox these last few days that are supposed to be in the regular boxes (the mox and balm products) have the goop heading.

i could be totally wrong though.

On the fence about this one.

They really are schmancy!  I may have to steal that idea.  Although mine will probably end up messy and funky-lookin'.  (And not in a good way!)

I don't want this box for sure!  Already got the full size eyeliner.

Make sure you get a straight razor so you can cut cut cut your mistakes!

Mary, this is a good point. I guess I find it annoying when they send the same ones month after month, and especially when the curated boxes are full of repeats.

I'm hoping that they will repeat the Skin, An Apothocary soy body butter again soon.  I would really like that one. 

I know a lot of people complain when Birchbox repeats samples, but to be honest I really dont see what difference it makes since they wont send the same item to the same person twice. It doesnt make the sample any less desirable just because someone else recieved it in thier Birchbox 2 months before I did.  It's still a new sample for me.

They said in the spoiler vid that the shipment of those got held up, so they were swapping it out with another color item.

Agree.  And I imagine how very frustrated I would be if I saw something great in someone's box and knew there was no chance I'd ever get it in a later box.  You think box-envy is bad now!!!

i put my brushed in them

 This is all you need to make them!

 I even use the paper they come with!

Labels

Really, really regret the goop decision now that I see the regular boxes. MUCH better, newer products. Seriously,

LA fresh???

I got a Goop box, and I'm almost certain it is box 6 even though the message seems to be Halloween/transformation.   I received all those items plus the anti-aging oil+.  I looked at the other boxes, and none of them match up to what I received.

Also, I think that the youtube spoiler video noted that the eyeko eyeliners were delayed in transit and are not going to be in the Oct boxes, but they're showing up.  

Edited: to hide a spoiler--sorry.

I tend to agree with you.

This is exactly what I think, too!  My sentiments exactly!
