I got box 1 too. How do you know we are getting a Blender? I tried to look back a couple pages but couldn't seen anything about our box. 

*Actually i don't have a feed back button for the Blender.

I am getting box 8! I don't even care what my other products are 

 (but for those who do DDF wrinkle resist plus pore minimizer, Luna bar, Orofluido elixer, and miracle skin transformer plus spf)
 because I am getting the chantecaille gloss!!!!

!!!! Weight is .4970 for delivery on the 15th and I am 29 (and NO i do not have anti aging listed as a concern but I am still happy with my picks).

BTW, I also received Box 8 in September and August. Thats 3 months in a row....Does anyone else notice getting the same number box every month?

I am pretty excited about this month, love every thing from my transformation box--but now I have 2 brand new doubles of the Mary Lou Balminizer (picked one up at sample stop & have yet to try). The Liqwd hair stuff (conditioner and styler), I'm psyched about! Finally some hair stuff that's not shampoo! Love love love to try the Mox Lip Butter, so darn cute. All in all, I am just happy that I have not tried any of the stuff in my box, well save for the tea (delish & <3).

As far as Box 1- Goop- nothing is showing yet except for the Essie....kinda get the feeling I was going to get it, since the box has yet to ship, and thus far, all the Goop boxes shown here does not have it.

Well, there you go! Birchbox managed to right the wrongs with me once again (no wonder why I have been subbing since the were new).

Im getting box 23 too!  do you know the size of the mary lou manizer sample?

From previous commentary about getting it in the Sample Shop, I think it's the size of a round shadow pan! Deluxe enough for me.

Hi guys...first time posting here...

I had subscribed to Goop hoping for essie...

Now, looks like i am being sent a transformation box. oh...i am getting so mad..

had thought of giving birchbox one more chance before i stopped it was getting disappointed with the samples & their size last couple of boxes. but this, i know they said limited no of people would get goop boxes, but still with goop email regarding shipping, i had my hopes high..

ok i am so confused!~

i opted in for goop.  and received this email

:Hi there,

Your October Birchbox has shipped. This month, we’re joining forces with goop, our go-to source for lifestyle inspiration, to bring you an exciting collection of goodies. While you’re waiting for your goop-curated samples, watch our sneak peek video to learn more about some of this month’s products

but my box page shows this:

October 2012 Hi there,
 

Since we were kids, October has meant one thing: costumes. (And candy, of course.) From princesses to Wonder Woman, we had quite the parade of getups. In honor of those days, we’re dedicating this month’s Birchbox to beauty changes both big and small. Transformation doesn’t have to mean dying your hair blue or tossing out your entire closet. Switch up your hairstyle, try a bolder lipstick

shade, or go completely sans makeup one day. You’ll be surprised at how minor tweaks can make a big difference.
so does it look like i am getting a transformation box instead of goop??  the email says one thing, box page another.  

ugh.

Okay, I am getting two of the same boxes (Box 8). But it is seriously extremely weird. Both are Transformation boxes & both of my emails were for Goop.

And both boxes weigh a little bit different 0.4720 & 0.4950. On my main, I opt in for Goop & on my second account I opt out. What is going on here?

Whoa! I am not alone! Me too. I got 2 Goop emails for both of my accounts and both are showing Transformation.

Earlier in the thread, it's been pointed out that the messages posted on the BB site are incorrect.  Anyone who is getting a Chantecaille product is definitely getting a Goop box.

Yeah, I opted out of goop and mine is the same but opposite.

 

[beautynewbie]

My page shows only 3 samples! That blows /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> sunscreen, tea and jouer lip enhance *le sigh*

 

[mjkdior713]

I;m confused cause I opted in for Goop box and the confirmation email I got telling me my box had shipped says stuff about Goop, not transformation.  When I log on to my BB account and look at my box, it's NOT A GOOP box!!  Soooo....I don't know what I'm getting cause it's not like they've never screwed up and put the wrong box in someone's account before and they end up getting a totally different box. 

WTF.  BB's getting on my nerves.  Very happy with my Ipsy/Myglam though.

I think the headers are opposite on the website.  I didn't sign up for goop and mine says goop.  The items in my box are items from previous boxes so Im sure I'm getting a transformation box. The headers just look incorrect.  Check if your box is showing up in your account to tell you whats in it.. then youll be able to tell.

Products in Your October Box

• 
  Lulu Organics® Lavender + Clary Sage Hair Powder
   
• 
  LUNA Bar
  Ships Free
• 
  Karuna Hydrating Treatment Mask
   
• 
  Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentrè (24-Hour Miracle Cream)

Same box, and I'm hoping the same thing.  Also... I've received that same dry shampoo / hair powder before (April 2012).

I'm also still waiting for the tracking number to update, but I've learned to ignore that most of the time.  

*Edit: Hmm.  Worth noting: the header info for my box used to be goop-related with no products listed.  Now it's transformation-related with the above products pictured.  I opted in for the goop box, as well. 

*Edit II: Looks like I'm not the only one with that issue.

There's a quote in your shipping e-mail that states "blah blah blah goop" or "blah blah blah transformation". That should give you a hint.

well, see I opted in and got that shipping email, however on my account,box page it talks about transformation...not Goop. So I don;t know what to think.

That's strange you aren't showing the same box.  When I check in my box on the website it says box 1 in the address bar..hmm my box weight is .4380 if that helps

 

[joyworld]

i seem to be getting box no 7 according to BB..
