I've already started refreshing my box page to see if it changes

 

[Lindsey Smith]

Mine weighs that too!  Mine doesnt come until 14th .5950

 

[KayEss]

Getting closer! Less than 3 hours!

I only have to wait until 2am up here. I usually am up around then with one of my kids anyway. Which means I should be in bed now but I got sucked into old Gilmore Girls episodes and might just stay up. Coffee was invented for a reason, right? ;-)

Ahhh, Gilmore Girls!! My favorite TV show of all time! I want to re-watch every episode right this very second!

OK, so the weight on my second account is .6950. Anyone else have that weight? Funny, but my 2nd account always seems to ship before my first account. 1st has shipped, but not trackable yet--no results in the system. I'm hoping for an Elizabeth Arden lip product. Nothing else really appeals to me this month. I might even be tempted to do a full box swap if there's nothing in it I want.

  what the heck! why is everyone hatin on the CS palette? Its beautiful!!

I think a lot of it has to do with the low cost of CS. Also, maybe some have tried them and don't like them. As for me, I love eyeshadows and have never tried them. I will admit, I'm a bit leery due to the low cost as most low cost eyeshadows tend to be powdery and not well pigmented, but I wouldn't mind getting them in a BB to try.

I haven't tried them but I've heard that they're poorly pigmented and don't have much staying power. This probably could be helped immensely by using a good primer, though. I'm personally not hoping for them because I rarely use shadow, so it's just not my thing unless it's out-of-this-world amazing.

Ok, so come on lucky boxes 11, 23, 24, 29, 31 (though this may be out b/c of Juice Beauty), or 49 based on what's up right now. A Willy Wonka golden ticket would work too! Just no mascara and no Yes To, please!!! 23 might be my fave, if it only had the Eliz Arden gloss. 24 intrigues me because of the gloves, plus it has gloss. Ok, so I'll hope for 23 on this account and 24 on the other. Yeah, THAT's likely to happen, lol! Ok, I guess 4:30 in the morning means beddy bye time, right? Signing off. How come I never manage to even get around to my Netflix movies anymore? Too much to gossip about on here plus FB games to play, I guess.

See, if I got nothing but lip products, eyeshadows, and the occasional blush in my subs, I think I'd be happy with that for several years!

With me it would be nothing but lip products, blush and the occasional eyeshadow lol.

Finally got a chance to go through the boxes... box 35 is PERFECT for me. 

Only a few more hours until we know, hopefully!

They're not updated yet, but if you click 'box' at the top and then 'women's box' it will show you your box contents. 

Although, I'm not sure it works like that for your first box..probably depends when you signed up!

I haven't been able to log into birchbox for about 3 weeks now.... what gives? I have tried it on 2 phones and 3 different computers : I finally e-mailed them and told them to cancel my account (what I'd been attempting to do, and then I got charged again because I couldn't log in... and still can't)

One of mine too. I only watched it here and there when it was on the air, but started from the first episode renting discs from Blockbuster when my oldest was born and I had to stay awake late for those long feedings and totally got hooked. My husband bought me the whole series that Christmas and I love to go back and watch it through every year or so. I just started it again, I love love love it.

I have this problem on my 2nd account. I used a trick I read on here to go to the store and add something to your cart and when it prompts you to log-in at checkout it'll work. I also read you can click on the box link, click on women's box and it'll prompt you to log in there and work as well. I hope CS is able to get back to you soon!

waiting and waiting for my box page to update!

  I finally looked through all the boxes and I'm trying to keep an open mind. I of course would love some lip gloss!  Of the stuff I could do without:  the mascaras look interesting but I have about a dozen unopened ones... the surf spray is cute but a disaster for my hair type and I already have a sample of the Egyptian Magic from Beauty army that I haven't tried yet.  I have box weights of .52 and .575.  I am hopeful I will not get duplicate boxes and that I get 2 different colors of polish!
