Hi ladies!  Long time lurker, first time poster.  This forum is great has introduced me to all kinds of subscriptions.  Now I'm practically an addict.  Dangerous, but amazing.  So thanks to all of you for your tips and thoughts!  Now on to the business... 

I am ecstatic because I'll be getting box #2 (I've been thinking of buying a beautyblender for months, so this was my wishlist box!) and box #4.  JIC anyone is still curious, the weights were 0.5170 and 0.4680, respectively.  I'm scheduled for delivery on the 16th for both boxes.

I got some LMT samples directly from jouer and it was just okay for me, plus I doubt the shade will be a match so if anyone is interested in the bb ones please let me know!

I also don't need headphones, so I know someone here was interested in them and if you still want/need some, I'm your girl.  I may also have other pairs from various giveaways or impulse purchases that I can part with as well.  (I'm a shopaholic...trying to reform, better but not cured yet!

)

Most likely the perfumes will be added to my pile I'm gathering for trade also.  I haven't liked any from my subs so far, especially the organic one from Glossybox this month (yuck! no offense if you liked it!

).

Since I'm new here, would someone please be so kind as to explain how the trade thread works?  And which one is the "right" one to use? I went under the Buy/Sell/Trade area and just got confused by all the options.  Is there one specifically for birchbox or is there a trade thread that's for any/all samples?

Sorry for the long post, but thanks in advance for the help!

'Birchbox Open Trade Thread'! That's the name of the thread you are looking for...

 Though it says Birchbox in the title, people, including myself list items from other subscription services too...

 
Looks like I'll be getting box #17. All I wanted was the Eyeko liner and I got it. Hopefully it's in black. 

 
My box was .6060 and doesn't seem to match up to any of the boxes listed. Huh, can't say I'm at all disappointed though! 

   

Kind of wish I didn't get the black liner, I ALWAYS seem to get black and no other colors.

I LOVE it.  No smudging.  I would have been embarrassed because I broke out my Urban Lash Kit from Urban Decay for a formal wine dinner on Saturday and thought that the liquid pen would make a cleaner line as a base for the lashes and it worked perfectly.  I'm not a pro at lashes and was nervous and they were great.  I really think the Eyeko worked better than the included Zero 24/7 liner in the kit would have.  I didn't feel like the lashes were wearing me, or too obvious, but they were definitely worth it, made a statement but you weren't exactly sure what that statement was, lol.  When I peeled off the lashes at the end of the night, the liner was still there until I removed it along with the extra lash glue.  And I had wine. ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  It was a wine dinner!  Multi course, outside, in Belize in July, but on the beach with a breeze.  No melting.  I think that's a good recommendation!

Here is the size of the Jouer Moisture Tint:



It's 0.17 fl. oz. I don't know how it compares to the previous Jouer moisture tint sample, since I haven't gotten it before.
It is bigger! I measured mine at 2 inches and it says 0.07 fl. oz. Jouer or BB must be listening to our complaints about their teeny tiny samples.

 
Does anyone want to trade my stila gloss for your black eyeko? Just thought i'd ask b4 I post on trade thread.

 
According to the Birchbox site I will be getting box #3 and it is a complete fail for me - does anyone want to do a box for box trade? (I only just got my shipping notice yesterday and it says tracking isn't available yet so it will be a few days until I have it in hand.)

What color did you get?

 
I'm trying SO hard not to peek and find out what my box is! But then I see people posting stuff that I would trade them for but I can't because I don't know what's in my box! Aagh!! To peek or not to peak?!?!

 
I am pretty happy with my two boxes:

First account:

1) Harvey Prince Eau Flirt-Lavender Pumpkin: Sounds like a nice combination of scents and I can't wait to try it!

2) Gloss Moderne High Gloss Masque- I love hair stuff and I've been needing a new masque

3) Color Club Summer Pastels Collection- I'm hoping for the Blue Ming but I love nail polish in general.

4) Larabar Uber- I'm really picky about my food. I've also heard some people like it and some don't. I am on the fence about it.

5) Manna Kadar Cosmetics Sheer Glo Shimmer Lotion- After reading about it I am actually excited to try it out

6) Suki Balancing Regimen- works for combination skin types like mine so I will definitely try it out

7) Earbuds- I go through these like candy so they are definitely something I will use

Second account:

1) Tea Forte minteas- I like mints so I will try these out

2) boscia green tea blotting papers- 25 papers seem like a lot and I like blotting papers

3) Gloss Moderne High Gloss Masque- duplicate but I am okay with that

4) Stila It's Go Time Lip Trio- this is one of the things that I wanted most

5) Juliette Has A Gun Vengenance Extreme- I've been wanting to try this since they first had it and rose, vanilla, and patchouli sounds like my scent

7) Earbuds- yay
