I have to switch over to the mobile site to post pics on MUT. It's a button/link at the bottom of the page. Mobile won't let me see the links in people's signatures, but it lets me post pics directly from my gallery on my phone.

I am obsessing way too much in wanting the Hedge Fund polish. I almost bought another brand in a similar color just because. Here's hoping the box with the polish is waiting for me when I get home tonight...

I have gotten two or three perfumes since January and I checked the no perfumes option.

No perfumes for me since they made that option and I hope it stays that way.

I have only gotten 1 perfume ever since November, and I have the no more than 6/year option selected (or whatever it is). I would actually love to get a perfume every month if I could only get fruity scents, but since I cant I just picked to send me less perfumes. The same beef that people have about perfumes I have in an opposite way with face makeup. I would love to get foundation, bb/cc cream, concealer, powder etc. samples but I have never gotten one. It is what it is and for me, it works in their favor because I just spend more $ in the shop to get what I wanted.

I guess maybe I'm more particular about scents than I thought. From Harvey Prince I've tried Fling, Flirt, Skinny Chic (which now has a different name), Yogini, and Hello. The only one I thought was even remotely okay was Skinny Chic. Even then, I wound up not caring for it too much after I wore it. I've tried the Rose and Orange Atelier Colognes, and both of them made me gag. I've gotten most of the Juicy fragrances from Birchbox, and the only one I liked (and bought) was Couture La La. That one actually smelled like Clinique's Happy perfume, and it didn't smell as young and sweet. I've really been enjoying Chloe lately, but even that had to kinda grow on me.

Another day, another no box.
I really do not understand what is going on.
the one I'm waiting on:
That's great...except I'm not living in Capitol Heights??? WTF this is the account I've had and it delivered to this address fine last month.
This is the one that loaded 2 days later, but somehow by passed all the random misplacement BS and showed up yesterday.
*facedesk* DO NOT UNDERSTAND UPS MI???

That's a nice one! I have two subscriptions and both are bleh. I'm hoping the Birchbox Local event will make up for it tomorrow.

I'm getting box #7 as well, and I'm not really psyched about anything in my box except the lipgloss. I hate the color orange but at least it's a change from the six, yes, six blue/green polishes BB has sent me in the last year. I have makeup checked off as the thing I can't get enough of and yet I see others getting boxes with mascara and lipsticks and I don't seem to get any of that stuff. Also, I have oily skin and I have never received a product for my skin type in the almost two years I've been a subscriber. They keep sending me moisturizers for dry skin. My biggest beef is that they are starting to send me single use samples, which I don't consider deluxe at all. I sent them a message after receiving another blister pack last month and they literally said "Big things sometimes come in small packages". I don't know what to do because my profile is exactly what I am and what I want. How should I switch it up? Do I put acne as a concern so that I'll get things appropriate for my skin type even though I don't have acne?
Overall, I really like BB, but since they updated that profile, my boxes are getting worse. I'm looking to switch to Wantable, but I'm not sure if it's worth the $36, especially since a lot of people complain that they receive the same brands over and over. That's one of the reasons I canceled SS.

I really do not understand it either!! My package went to Fontana, CA on Monday like it always does. For the 6 months that I've been with birchbox, it always arrives the next day once it's there (Fontana is 20 mins away from me). However, it didn't arrive yesterday or today! Instead it went to a city 50 minutes away from there. AND it went there on MONDAY and has stayed there :/. I'm just way too excited for this month's box that I'm being impatient but c'mon!Another day, another no box.

Box twins! So excited about everything minus the Dr Jart in this box. I can not fall in love with any BB/CC

I live maybe 40 minutes away from Fontucky, I mean, uh, Fontana, so when it gets there I know my box is close to me. My shipping page hasn't updated since the 8th, and I never even got a shipping notification. Kinda weird.
