​

I found mine underneath the bottom layer of tissue paper.

I am trying to see the bright side of things... haha but really both boxes will be pretty good and somewhat different. I will try everything and hope for the best.

I guess that is kind of confusing! I guess I'll start off by saying I have VERY bad acne when I don't keep a close eye on what products I use and don't use. I ended up going to a esthetician, who gave me a 2-page list of ingredients to avoid. These ingredients will irritate the skin and cause serious breakouts. Unfortunetely, a lot of products contain these harmful ingredients. So the first thing I do when I get my Birchbox is check the ingredients on anything I may put on my skin against my list to make sure it's safe. I thought maybe it would be helpful for everyone if I posted it here! Methylparaben, however, is NOT on my list, but I try to avoid any type of parabens anyway. It's been linked to cancer.

I will say though, if you don't have skin problems, I wouldn't worry about these products.

Thanks for the specific information! I do have acne-prone skin, so I am fairly cautious about what I put on my face as well. I don't break out often anymore, but I HATE when it happens, so I am religious about washing my face and monitoring how it feels, etc. I have done some reading on parabens, but the others were new to me. Good to know for future reference! Thank you again!

Just out of curiosity, why do you think it will ship today? I re-activated my third account a few days ago and it said it would ship out June 20th.. what does it say under 'My Account' when you log in?

i thought it was going to ship today (per a phone convo) but i guess i am boned /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  maybe the 20th for me as well? no shipping date showing under my account at all.

Wondering when your Birchbox will ship? Birchboxes are like magazines—they come out once a month. Please refer to your order confirmation email to see when your first Birchbox will ship.

I think the little beauty blender cleanser is so cute, and its the perfect size for travel. I have a big one already so I can always keep this sample sized one and refill it whenever I go somewhere. I thought I would actually maybe use the deer modcloth headband but the more I look at it the more I wish they had sent me a red polka dot one, gah! I guess I will be keeping the bandaids too since I had no luck trading that. Other than that, I am excited to try the self tanning wipes, I am using my St Tropes self tanner from my QVC Test Tube right now, so I havent had a chance to try them yet. This weekend I might go visit family out of town, so it may be a good chance to give it a go. I already said earlier I think the Staniac sucks, I gave it to my sister and am hoping to trade the other one.

I got the art coupon in one box and the modcloth coupon in the other box. I guess it depends on what box you got? It just says 'get 25.00 off your first purchase. Visit www.artspace.com/birchbox to join today'

Ahhhh I get to go home tomorrow (stay in my work city through the week for work) and I can't wait to get my birchbox & target bag!

I've never contacted birchbox before for anything so I'm just wondering, do they usually reply back quickly? I had a broken item in my box /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I posted my BB & myglam on my blog this month.. usually I do a video but there wasn't much to say.  The value on both were decent and they were interesting products.  No one to blast, no one to necessarily praise (yet!), though I may come monthly favorites time, haha.

Ladies who got the By Terry Expert Light Perfecting Foundation Sample, have you tried it yet and do you have any thoughts? I love that the full size has a built in brush and that it was rated good for travel as I seem to be doing a lot of that lately and would love to lighten up my makeup bag. But I don't want to invest that much money if the foundation isn't great.

Thanks!
