So I caved, I checked my box online and there is only 4 items listed. Hopefully they are still adding stuff. I am not sure what box I am getting, my items don't match up with anything on Zadi's list. My tracking hasn't updated yet. These are my items so far.

Harvey Prince Eau Flirt

theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer

Mox Botanicals Lip Butter

Supergoop City Sunscreen Serum

I am getting the same box. This is the first month where I'm just completely underwhelmed with my box. I mean, come on. That stupid Per-fekt lip gel thing doesn't count as any kind of sample. I'm so mad right now.

Here you go you guys...pics as promised

I am super excited for my boxes this month! 

My Transform box is I think #5.  Its the one I wanted!  It has the Eve Lom cleanser and cloth, the Almika hair mask, the DDF serum and the Chanticaille mascara, and a yummy Luna bar! 

My Goop box has the Mary Lou Manizer, the Ouidad heat and humidy gel, Lucy B perfumes, and the Vitvia skin vitamins. 

I'm really excited for both!  I had really wanted the Transform box that I'm getting, and had wanted to try the skin vitamin things ever since I saw the Sneek Peek video.

Also, on an unrelated (but sorta is related) note....

I need to seriously clean out my stash of brand new, never used make up & skincare items (from all the beauty subs/ trips to Sephora/ VIB perks/ rush to CVS for sales/ etc...). I am such a sucker for freebies/ goodies/ sale-ies...*sigh*

I use a handful of items daily. Mascara, brow pencil, sheer foundation (Make Up Forever---FOREVER!!!), and lippies...that's it.

I am on the fence about the whole BB/CC thing...I think they are too heavy for me, I love sheer/ light coverage that looks like you aren't wearing anything at all....well, it kinda defeats the purpose of a cover up doesn't it? LOL...but I feel icky when my skin has anything heavy sitting on it.

Double box twins!! 

  I am getting #5 and #22 (I believe the second box you mentioned)!  I am excited for both of these also!  Yea for a good Birchbox month!  Now they just have to get to my house...  Lol.

Luna bar

Essie polish Sprout lip balm
Marie Veronique Body Oil
  I am super happy about the essie though - last month I got the lime green color club (blech) - at least all the colors are really pretty for the essie this time around.  
I will at least try/use everything in this box!!


Overall, even though it's less products, I like it better than last month - I had perfume, tea, the tiny TM, one nail polish remover towelette, the lime green nail polish (TOTALLY not my color), and (the only good thing) the brightening facial scrub.  

I think it's interesting though that the box photo hasn't updated for me - just the products underneath, so I guess it's still possible there might be one more thing in it.  

It looks like I will be getting the same box.

I have no idea what box I'm getting since Zadi's list isn't updated yet, but I'm in the 3 products and a Luna Bar group. 

Jouer lip enhancer

Essie polish

Luna Bar

Supergoop

I know the Supergoop is a tiny foil packet, so I'm really hoping that there's at least one other item that isn't listed yet. 

 

[sinatraskitten]

I got box #1 and love it. The only thing that would make it more perfect is mary lou manizer.

 

[dryadsbubble]

I'm pretty bummed it's looking like my "3 items plus a Luna Bar" won't include an Essie polish, since that item updated for other boxes. I would have been satisfied with 3 items + bar if one of the 3 items had been an Essie polish.    

 

[spwest]

Looks like I'm getting the three items and a luna bar too-I've never gotten a box with only three things.  But I was really hoping for the Essie polish and it looks like I'll be getting it, so it's all to the good!

On another note, and I know this has been addressed before but I am less than tech savvy-how do I know what box number I have?

Hey Pash, if you live in NYC we are doing a make-up swap on Oct 25th.  You are welcome to join us!  https://www.makeuptalk.com/t/128627/make-up-swap-meetup/30#post_1947077

 

[TPeterson]

I signed up for the Goop box the second I got the email and I didn't get one. Not really happy with what I'm getting. Has anyone tried any of these? Lulu Organics® Lavender + Clary Sage Hair Powder LUNA Bar Karuna Hydrating Treatment Mask Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentrè (24-Hour Miracle Cream)

 

[Musegirl]

I was really excited about the Eyeko in the Transformation box.  Do you know if I could get an Eyeko if I already got one in a previous box in a different color?

 

[queenofperil]

I'm willing to trade these items if anyone wants to: 

DDF Brightening Cleanser 

Miracle Skin Transformer SPF20 Face
per-fekt beauty Lip Perfection Gel ('cause I'm SO sure someone wants this >_&gt
Caudalie Vinoperfect Complexion Correcting Radiance Serum

I'm getting box 11, too. Boooooo.

 

[Playedinloops]

According to my box page I'm only getting essie. lol, that's ...interesting, birchbox.

They said they got caught up at customs and will be replaced by a different item.

I'm getting this same box. Not very thrilled with the contents - really hating the lip stuff. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
