(SPOILERS) July Birchbox partners with Glamour Magazine

[HelloLeilani]

I got box 2! While I wanted a Laura Geller lipstick, I'm definitely not bummed. I get to FINALLY try a Beauty Blender and I get Stila! 

 

[mirandamanda]

my eyeliner has been spoken for! yay 

i still want the earphones though, I have two young daughters who've gone through my (many) ipod ones like nobody's business LOL!

I'm getting Box 26.

Harvey Prince Eau Flirt - Lavender Pumpkin
Dirt. Luxe salt scrub - lemon leaf
Ada Cosmetics Bronzer
theBalm® cosmetics Stainiac
LÄRABAR über
Birchbox Exclusive Earbuds
I don't know how I feel about it. I do have to say that I like it more than my last one. I'm just happy I didn't get any tea!

  I might trade the perfume and scrub.

I am getting box #8 

• Harvey Prince Eau Flirt - Lavender Pumpkin
• Gloss Moderneâ„¢ High Gloss Masque
• Color Club® Summer Pastels Collection
• LÄRABAR über
• Birchbox Exclusive Earbuds

and box #27 ('welcome box' for new second account)

• Color Club® Summer Pastels Collection
• stila stay all day 10-in-1 hd beauty balm
• theBalm® cosmetics Stainiac
• Juliette Has a Gun Miss Charming

What a bummer, I'm getting Box #3.

1. Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint
2. Oscar de la Renta live in love
3. LÄRABAR über
4. Birchbox Exclusive Earbud
5. Stila Lip Glaze

Well, most, if not my entire box will go up for trade. I already know I don't like the Jouer and I'm not huge on lipglosses. I love lipsticks, but sticky lipglosses are not for me.

I got box #1! My weight was .5000. I'm really happy with it! Though the lipstick got slightly melted in transit.

I got Box 20, with a weight of 0.5790:

1. Alterna BAMBOO® UV+ Color Protection Fade-Proof Fluide
2. Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint
3. blinc Mascara
4. Tea Forté® minteas
5. Harvey Prince Hello
6. Birchbox Exclusive Earbuds

I'm not really jumping for joy over anything in the box, but it's a perfectly fine collection of stuff. They shouldn't have bothered with the earbuds, though; the sound is terrible, very tinny. I had been looking forward to getting them, but they're really more of a child's toy than something I'd use to listen to my music.

Is it just me, or does that Jouer Moisture Tint in this box look a lot bigger than the regular sample?

We all got the Jouer lip gloss at one point, it was their "BirchBox Pink" shade.

Not sure of the shade I have in my box 19, but don't really want since I have several I received from Jouer when they were giving away samples.

OH NO!!! I hope that doesn't happen to mine!!

 

[Melissalynne]

I'm getting box #12 :] sooooo excited for the eyeliner! I hope its in black or olive... that blue color might be a bit much for me, but I would definitely wear it on special occasions! And another fun thing, my box shipped on the 9th and I just checked the tracking and it is already in Austin, TX (on the 11th) so it should get here MUCH earlier than the 16th!! 

 

[spmblueeyez]

On my first account I'm getting box #26 as well...kinda thought I might since I missed last month, but I'm happy cuz last month I got my aunts Staniac and it's almost empty now. Was still wishing for a mascara, liner, or gloss, and the bronzer kinda scares me, but overall I'm happy. On a side note, in my SS box I got a deluxe sample of Jouer in bronzed, way too dark for me, so if someone wants to trade for it, I'm down.

Me three! on the Jouer lip gloss!  I got it in January and it looks like it's coming again.  I'll email them as soon as I get my box...KUP on any responses you get.

I'm meh on both my boxes this month.  Just got my 2nd sub's box, it's box 3 (.5020), with the

Alterna BAMBOO Fluide (ok, interested in trying this)

Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint (at least it's a bigger sample than I got on my main sub in Feb, though I didn't like it then - too dark for me - so I doubt I'm going to like it this time)

Oscar de la Renta live in love (not a perfume fan)

Stila lip glaze in Action (I don't like Stila's lip formula, so not pleased)

Larabar

Earbuds
and it looks like my main sub's box is 19 (no weight yet), with the

Jouer Lip Gloss (already got this on this sub, like I said - rage)

blinc mascara (ok with this)

Tea Forte minteas (don't like tea so if these taste like tea at all - duh - won't like them)

Oscar de la Renta live in love (see above.  If I was going to get a perfume I at least wanted to try the lavender pumpkin one)

Manna Kadar sheer glo shimmer lotion (I'm a little old for shimmer lotion but could be worse)

Earbuds
So....yeah.  Nothing I actually saw on the lists and *wanted* out of the whole bunch.  But, you win some, you lose some, right?

A recent beauty blogger just blogged her results (and her aunt's) with a generic version that's only $25 through an online pharmacy and I want thick lashes so bad I was tempted!  The good girl in me says, "hmm, online pharmacies? kinda sketchy" and the girl with skimpy (to me) lashes says, "Oh, it can't be that bad . . . "  

This girl had nice lashes before and now her lashes are to die for.  I think she's lucky in that regard, some good genes with dark hair and thicker eyelashes and it made a huge difference even on her without looking way over the top.  The do sell it here in Belize pretty much over the counter (it's crazy here, you can walk in and buy Viagra from a pharmacy, or antibiotics) but I did talk to my doctor here about it (I was there for other reasons) and she said, "Sure, go for it!"  Only thing holding me back is that it's double price here, about $200!  Ouch.  I think they sell the generic at my salon, like I said, loose licensing, but it still seemed to be about $50 - $75.  Sigh.  One day, I will get it.  My poor lashes need some assistance!

I got box 13.  I'm neither here nor there about it. I do dislike getting shampoo without conditioner because I tend to match lines, I don't like clashing scents.

Re Turquoise eyeliner, I always do it with gold.  I can't find my real camera to get a better photo, but it happens I'm wearing it right now (not the Eyeko, but a similar color).  I'm not a crazy color person myself, but with a bit of bronze on the cheeks and nude lips I just die for it.  Also, holy moly I need to go put some concealer under my eyes.

 

 

[cskeiser]

I'm getting box #8 and Box #17...  happy with both boxes, even though the polish, Larabars, and perfume will all be doubles.  Hoping to receive two different polish colors since I already received a coral polish earlier this year... so much for not sending dupes that we've already received?  Larabars will be okay, but I LOVED the Minteas I received in a previous box and would've loved to try another flavor.

I noticed that too!

 

[glamigirl]

getting box #2 and #6.  not bad, just hoping i get a good nail polish color this time.

 

[Linz31]

According to Birchbox, I will be getting box 10.

 

[Wida]

I'm getting box 19 and a duplicate Jouer gloss too.  I'm excited for the mascara, but this is the 4th month in a row that I've had issues with an item in my box that I've had to contact them over (expired Befine, empty BB cream, missing item and now a duplicate).  I think it may be time for BB and I to take a break.

I will have 2 pairs of earbuds up for trade, I have no use for them at all.
