Hmm.  8, 9, and 32 are currently the same.  I wonder if there will be fifth items in each box that are different or if they're sending out different shades, thereby causing different boxes on the box number side of things.  If the latter is the case, I want the one with the lightest shade!  Pasty, pasty girl over here.  If the former is the case, I'll go with the one(s) without fragrance, hair styling/hold product, and anything for the face that involves enzymes (sensitive skin = NO BURNY THINGS!).

Thanks for that! It makes me a little less bummed about trying it if it ends up in one of my boxes

I'm loving boxes 8,9, & 32 as well. (As of right now they are the same which means there is something else in them that hasn't been loaded on the site yet). I tried benefit fake up & it works really well on me! I'd love some more of it! And the other things in those boxes are awesome! I haven't been this excited about birch box in a while. Can't wait to see what I get!

 
* 12 Benefits instant healthy hair treatment * Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion skin exfoliant-good size! .25oz *the chapstick of course * dr. Brandt Light years away whitening cream cleanser-two foil packets *Stainiac cheek & lip stain in Beauty queen? -i'm gonna be trading this if anyone wants it! Overall, not bad!

I really, really hope I get a light (as opposed to medium or dark.  Definitely not light coverage!  Give me industrial-strength spackle!) concealer.  I don't care what brand as long as it works.  This is allergy season for me, and that means looking like I've been punched in the eyes.  I'm currently using a tarte concealer, and I do like it, but I have this Thing where I prefer to get a new and different product each time I run out of something (except bb cream, since I finally found *one* that works with my skintone!), so I would love to find something to put on my list for the next one after I use the current tube up.  

 
i actually have a tube of fake up and i'm not in love with it. i'm fairly light skinned and i tried on both the light and medium in sephora and medium looked best on me.

 
I got my box today! I got box number 8 and my weight was .580 I'm actually very happy!!

It only shows 4 items on the site, was there a 5th in your box?

No. The cloth counted as a fifth item. :-/
That explains why there's so few items in the boxes.  I forgot they sell the two items separately.

They don't sell them separately though. Liz earle comes with 2 cloths
 
They have also been known to send four-item boxes.

Right but this month they said in the Sneak Peak video that the Chapstick wasn't supposed to replace any samples, just be a bonus item. I'm not really upset about it especially, just an observation. I would personally much rather sample something new than receive a tube of Chapstick though.

They sell a set and they sell the items alone also.

Thanks, I totally missed the set when I was checking it out in the shop when they first announced it.

 
When I was clicking through the boxes I got this screen that said "Your current box" on box 36. Has anyone who has gotten their box noticed this or anyone else?

That happens a lot. I've had it show up on multiple boxes in the same month, and none of them turned out to be my real box. If it turns out to be your actual box, chances are it's just a coincidence.
