Any ways, these are not airport security approved which means if you try to use it in your carry on they'll probably toss it and put your stuff in a clear bag.

I thought they were similar to these: http://www.birchbox.com/shop/lifestyle/baggu-zipperbag

... now that I know they are plastic/not reusable I am not so interested.

Hello all!  First time poster here, although I've been reading for a while.  I finally decided to sign up today and join the discussion!

I haven't received my Birchbox yet, but according to the feedback method looks like I'll be getting box 17.  Im excited about the Melvita water but feeling so-so about the rest of the box. That said, I'd be willing to trade the rest of my box or items from my box for the Stila one step bronzer or for a box containing the stila one step bronzer.

Also, does anyone know if theyre sending out different shades of the stainiac?

BTW - since this is now on page 19 (for me as I view things at 100 posts per page) and has over 1825 posts.... A few things.

On my blog I have a list of all the products and in what box the items appear in. I've copied that list here to MUT as a point of reference.

In the Birchbox: The June Boxes (aka the product lists) I also have a different layout of the June box items and what boxes those appear in. Similar to the 2012 list but it's for June only. You can view that here:

In that same thread and in the original 1st post is the box contents of each box plus official photos. You can view that here:

So I today on my weekly shopping trip they had a bin of band-aids near the checkout and on top of the pile were the Cynthia Rowley ones. I just had to have them and at $2.53 I got them much to my husband's dismay and eye rolling >.<

LOL @ your husband.

I'm getting the same. I'm pretty happy with this box. Don't like Yu-Be anything. I did want a Modcloth Headband.

I am sad, I wanted a Tili bag soo bad!

I might wait until I get 200 points so I can purchase the Tili bags and hair ties. I don't know though.

I don't understand what this Floral water is all about. It seems really over rated. Same with the dumb skin cream. I have a sample of benetint already, so I'm not interested in the Staniac. Bandaids? I never use bandaids as is. Definitely a meh box for me.

i wanted the bandaids..  and NOT the tili bag.. hahahaaaa

Whoa wait so those little baggies are just sandwich bags? That really sucks. I was looking forward to getting a cute makeup bag for my purse or something.

Do they at least give you more than one? 

It looks like I'm also getting the self tanner packet which is wasted on me. And the male cologne (seriously what. You'd think they wouldn't put male things in our birchboxes when there is a separate guy-centric birchbox)

BUT the big eye pencil and the lip stain look like fun

I was secretly hoping for those eyelashes though ;_;

Hey guys! So using the feedback method I found out I'm getting box #19 from zadis list!!! Also I just got my shipping notice this morning although before I got the email, i clicked on Mays tracking number and it showed junes box!!! Got the tip to do that earlier in the thread! My box weight is .4320 incase anyone is wondering...Do i have any box twins!? Im actually super excied!

Also, I was ***really hoping*** someone could tell me if ALL of the modcloth headbands they sent out are the red and white polkadots...I sure hope so because I know I Will NOT wear a deer printed headband lmao!!!!

Oh and did anyone reading this get the jouer luminizing moisture tint in a previous box? I know they have been sent out before and I was wondering what you thought about it....at this point Im least excited about that out of everything in my box...but who knows maybe its a great product...? Let me know!!

I actually LOVE the Jouer tinted moisturizer. It's perfect for my skin. I have normal skin, leans on the dry side every once in awhile. I don't have blemishes or hyperpigmentation, so this is just enough coverage to even out my skin tone and I like that it's moisturizing and has spf. I bought the full size, though I had to buy it from Jouer because BB doesn't carry the opal shade.

I wanted box 3 or 26 but I am getting box 1. I am hoping I will at least be able to trade the bronzer for some Melvita Floral Water, I wanted that so bad. Also, what is up with the ziplock bags? That is not something I want to see in my Birchbox. IMO, they are worse than the damn coasters.

 

[peebeenjay]

i'll be getting

box 16 :

• Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint
• John Varvatos Star U.S.A.
• BORGHESE Botanico Eye Compresses
• Scalisi Skincare Anti-Aging Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30
• theBalm® cosmetics Stainiac
• BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandages by Cynthia Rowley Bundle

box 9 :

1. John Varvatos Star U.S.A.
2. tili Bags Small Collection 1
3. Eyeko Fat Eye Stick
4. Likewise Facial Moisturizer + Sun Protectant SPF 50 Normal To Oily
5. Comodynes Self-Tanning Intensive
6. theBalm® cosmetics Stainiac

i'm ok with that, although i didn't get the floral water or headband like i wanted. at least i didn't get 2 boxes with tanning towelettes. i will NEVER use them. trade pile they go!

 

[mjkdior713]

Im a tad disappointed, thought I'd get my box yesterday but it looks like I should get it tomorrow. Its not late, its just based on the shipping date I usually get it around the 10th. I am able to view what I'm getting based on feedback. I really did want to try stila, but i like the box. Definitely getting the balm cheek n lip tint so that's cool. I heard next month they're featuring stops too so maybe they'll finally give me a stila product in July LOL.

Glad the Opal shade worked for you. It was still too dark for me. Kinda of like an instant tan...haha.

 

[SimplyChelle xX]

so after looking around on YouTube, this thread and google, I haven't seen anyone with box 19 which is the one I'm getting. I really just want to find out if im getting the polkadot or deer printed headband. All of the box pics in zadis list show the deer print but when I click on the box link the site shows a polkadot headband in the picture underneath. I know they sent out both so im wondering if theres a way to know which one im getting or if it will be a surprise.....hmmm

 

[cclayson]

I'm happy I'm getting two boxes although I have a few repeats. If anyone wants to trade for the band-aids, Melvita rose water spray or stainiac, let me know!
