I got the Eyeko fat eye stick in "old gold" and I am LOVING it. I also prefer the staniac to the Benetint I usually use.

Same here.This is my second month subscribing to Birchbox and both of my box subs are the same so far.My profiles are different except for age and income.I'm going to change my age on my second sub this time around. One a positive note, my boxes have been nice ones.Last month I got two Stila liners!

I want my 20% off coupon so I can place an order already. Gonna cash in 500 points and get me some Kerastase

 

[JessicaMarie]

My box is out for delivery. Should be here any minute now! Although, I swear the mailman likes to torture me and come later than usual whenever he delivers my Birchboxes.

Last month was my third month and I too was waiting for my coupon to place an order, but I never got one. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

YAY! My box is finally out for delivery! I can't wait to see what color Eyeko Fat stick I got and I'm also looking forward to trying the staniac and the Yu-be moisturizer. I'll save the bathsoak for this weekend and give hubby the Luna Bar (unless it's chocolate peppermint... then I might have to cheat on my diet, LOL!). My skin79 BB cream order is also out for delivery (Double Yay!!!). Today's a good day!

*It's kind of funny that I haven't even gotten my June box yet and I'm already antsy to get the July Glamour BB, LOL!

My box finally arrived! I received Box 19 -

 The June box is my third box and I haven't gotten a coupon either. I'm starting to wonder if they still do those

Gosh, if you like those tanning wipes you could probably get a ton of them for very little trade right now, since so many people have them and don't want them! Maybe I'll try mine tonight.

I got box 2 and love the bronzer. I used it as a primer today and it makes me look like I'm naturally a bit tanner on my face (I'm normally quite pale, but it gives me the look like I've been outdoors for a week and worn sunscreen, but a little color sneaks in there). I also like how hard it is to screw up applying the stain, because I don't usually do too well with stains.

Whether I get a low-value BB or a high-value BB, they tend to be products I will use and enjoy. I wasn't too happy with April (I got the infamous BeFine stuff and a lip gloss that was kind of meh), but there's always something I like or would buy again in each box.

It's here! It was like my own little beauty filled Christmas! Not only did I get my Birchbox, I also received my Target Beauty Bag! I love the Eyeko Liquid Liner already. I got it in black, which is great because it will definitely get plenty of use. Also, that Yu-Be sample is such a baby lil thing. From the pictures, I expected it to be bigger, lol.

They go out around the 18th. This will be my 6 month coupon and I have gotten one every 3 months on all of my accounts.

How do you guys put on the Staniac? I tried it yesterday and I loved how it looked on me but the finger I used to blend it in was all red and didn't come off for a while. Do I use a sponge?

For anyone whoe recieved box 11 or the Borghese body soak sample, how many packets did you get?

 

[lovesmakeup2012]

1. John Varvatos Star U.S.A.
2. Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream
3. Eyeko Skinny Liquid Eyeliner
4. theBalm® cosmetics Stainiac

I am 5'5", 120lbs, and I think one towelette could easily work for a light layer over my whole body.  For someone taller/ longer limbed, it would probably take 2 to cover themselves entirely.
