Birchbox October 2012

[spwest]

I was just on the facebook page, and it sounds like the essie polish is a full size- if that's true I wont be nearly as upset about getting 3 items plus a luna bar! 

Can anyone give any feedback for ipsy/myglam?  I like my BB, but could really use some more actual makeup samples...

Ugh I am getting the DDF Brightening Cleanser which I do not want. I got it before and it wrecked HAVOC on my skin. Blah. 

On the other hand, I am getting the Caudalie Vinoperfect Complexion Correcting Radiance Serum and the Miracle Skin Transformer SPF20 Face but most importantly, I am getting the per-fekt beauty Lip Perfection Gel which (if they are giving out the full size), is worth $24.00 alone! 

Unfortunately, the pics people who have received same lip product have shown is showing it to be a sample on a card that's maybe the size of my pointer finger. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Sucks cause I'm getting same box.  Excited for the other stuff though.

The Caudalie is tiny... maybe the size of the small Jouer LMT they sent out, but it seems to be filled with a tad more air than product (at least in my case).. plus it made my skin oily after sitting around the house for 3 hours, when normally it takes 6+ hours of doing SOMETHING to make that happen.

I don't know the size of the Miracle Transformer, but I hope it is reasonable /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

On the one hand, trying a Caudalie product will be nice. On the other, I'm 25, have no dark spots, and I've got seriously oily skin/hormonal acne. What are they trying to achieve by sending me this? It's like they're asking for bad reviews.

Musegirl...thanks so much for the link & invite. Unfortunately, the timing and date does not work for me. Me = mom of two boys + one overgrown man child....i do not want to come home with all the goodies to a house that's been through a tornado! May be next time.

Hey - just wanted to say hi from another mom of two boys and one man child in Brooklyn!

So even though I opted out of goop it looks like I'm getting a goop box, anyone else seeing that.  Mine I guess is box 30.  My splurge item was haircare, how does any of this have to do with haircare?!

Mine hasn't updated either! Although, after seeing so many disappointing boxes on here, I'm not even that excited to get mine anymore! 

 

[gemstone]

I am getting box 16, & am so excited! (Even about the sunscreen as it is so important to wear spf year round!)

BUT I haven't gotten any shipping notices yet.  I usually get it on the 10th and I live in Baltimore so it gets here pretty quickly.

ipsy/my glam has been way better than birchbox. their october box looks great!

they tend to give people everything but their splurge in their box, according to some theories that people on here have discussed. i put perfume as my splurge and my boxes have been perfume free for the most part. i wish they had an option for nutrition bars so they would stop sending me those

Checked my Birchbox this AM.  I did not opt into or out of Goop but I am getting Goop and it is lame.

I'm getting:

jouer lip stuff Goop sunscreen a candle and a luna bar
only 4 items and only one is even beauty related?  I think it is time to break up with Birchbox.

I'm getting the box with the Harvey Prince Lavender Pumpkin perfume, Mary-Lou manizer from the balm, Mox lip butter, Mighty Leaf Tea, LiQWD perfect wave and Silk conditioning treatment.
I really wanted to try that perfume, I've been eying that luminizer, I love chapstick/lip balms, drink tons of tea and have long hair so this box really is stuff I'll use and be happy to try out.
yay!

Hello from your box twin!
