Aaaahhh, really hoping I get one of the TV boxes with the Tarte in it. I'm not really into the Fresh lip balm. Naturally that's what I'll probably get.





Seriously. I could want all but one box and I get that one box! Lol

I think I'd actually be happy with almost all of the regular boxes this month, except the one with the EyeRock liners, lots of things I've never heard of, which is always a plus for me.

I am in LOVE with Tarte Lipsurgence products. Keep your eye out for Tarte sets, you can get a killer deal on them. Sephora had a 5 full size pack for $29 around Christmas that I bought. Normal price for just one full size is $24.

you can get 3 for $33 on QVC http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.A219995.desc.tarte-Peppermint-Infused-Hydrating-Lip-Tint-Trio

In the past though, I've been surprised by getting the box that everyone wants! I've only had a few botched birchboxes. I mean Fresh is a great brand and their Brown Sugar is my signature scent, but I'll definitely be trying to trade for a tarte lipstain because I am obsessed with them and want to try them.

I think that stila smoky eye card can hardly be called a sample. It is the kind of junk you get free in a magazine

That looks AWESOME, AuntOly! Have you dealt with these auto-shipments before? Are they easy to cancel? Can you cancel them after seeing what will be in the shipment?

How much did your box weigh?!

There is a FULL SIZE Tarte LipSurgence natural lip stain in Amused (a super pretty hot pink), a FULL SIZE Essie Luxe effects in A Cut Above, Kate Spade Twirl sample, Kerastase Elixir Ultime sample, and a twistband hair tie, as well as a Modcloth discount code ($10 off $75 or more!)
I was so excited about the box I had to stop lurking and register so I could post this /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

If you tune in at midnight that night they usually show the other colors. What most people do however is push back their delivery date on the second and third shipments a few weeks and wait until the reviews and pictures are posted online. All you need to do to change or cancel us call customer service or go to auto delivery in you order status online to change it yourself. I have been buying their today's special cosmetic kits for years and the values can not be beat. I get the Laura Geller, smashbox, and tarte ones. They also do Bobbie brown, it cosmetics, josue maren, and bare minerals to name a few.

Any box except 23 would be awesome for me to get. I especially like 16 though.

  Sigh....still no shipping notices for either of my accounts.  I am obsessively checking my email boxes and refreshing them.  I'm nuts (but it's nice to know there are other nuts out there!)

Yes I got mine on Wednesday and my BB may arrive by today or tomorrow. I am also in Brooklyn.

I would trade with you!  I'm dying to try that Tarte Lipstain.
