(SPOILERS) July Birchbox partners with Glamour Magazine

[Hollie Prince]

I Have a feeling I've asked this before lol but how do I get to the trade board?

 

[jbird1175]

I got box 7. The box this month is awfully generous which is great BUT the shade of Stila I got is not for me. I'm not sure I'll use the bronzer or the gloss masque. I'm also on the fence about the Harvey Prince b/c it's smelling too floral-y for my taste. Think I'll visit the trade board....

Looks like I'm getting box #6 and I'm pretty thrilled. I'm completely hooked on BB creams right now so I'm really hoping that Boscia isn't too dark for me, and I always love a new nail color or lip gloss!

Quote: Im getting box four! Super excited for the liner.Any box twins?

Me too!!! And my first box on my second account will be this:

Box 5:  Amika Oil Treatment & Nourishing Hair Mask Harvey Prince Hello Eyeko Liner Boscia BB Larabar Earbuds    

and that looks even more promising. What I especially like (aside from not getting the crappy welcome box 28) is I may get different shades of the duplicates for trading.  So this is the best month yet for my Birchboxing. I managed to avoid spoilering myself by not coming here but then I had to go to the website 

 Now I just want to get unboxing and reviewing!

pm me, maybe we can work out a trade if you aren't interested in your beautyblender.

Yes. I bought a gift sub for a friend using 300 BB points just this afternoon /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have purchased a gift subscription using Birchbox Points. According to their FAQ:

"The $10 reward can only be applied to full-size products, yearly subscriptions and gift subscriptions. Unfortunately, our system isn't set up to use Birchbox Points for monthly subscriptions."

TY  I already did.

I'm getting box 2 also. Excited because it's the one I actually wanted because of the beauty blender. First month I got the Stila liner in Curacao, last month I got the full size bronzer, and this month I'm getting a Stila gloss. Loving Birchbox so far!!

Does anyone know how big the Laura Geller lipstick is? Also, does anyone that got it want to swatch it and post a picture? It sounds soooo pretty!.

I got "Action" and I'm looking to trade it if anyone's interested!  It's a pretty color but I'm not really into lip glazes... I'd love to trade for an eyeliner (or possibly nail polish)!

I guess I'm getting Box 11.  I am excited about the eyeliner, really hope I get purple! I already have the full size of Eau Flirt (but I love it, so I'll use the sample in my purse, for sure.) I really hate Color Club polish, but I don't have any similar colors to those right now so I'll use it. I am sure I'll like the sunscreen serum and the minteas. The earbuds will be nice to have on hand as a backup...I am rough on those things.

I still haven't decided if I'm going to cancel BB after this month or not. I may wait until I have a few more points to spend...I've just felt blah about my last couple of boxes so it might be time for a break. We'll see!

I'm excited to try the Stila HD 10-1 primer in my box, it has lots of good reviews....Still looking for a great primer!

shizzle.  that is a NICE size sample!  i actually didn't like my original tiny sample of it, but still... that's great!  

I got the teeny tiny sample /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  have other people gotten the big or small sample? Has BB done that before where people get different sized samples in the same month?

I think they are referring to how big the samples are now, as opposed to the samples we got several months ago...I got a tiny one back in Feb but I think everyone got the same size. You got a teeny one this month? That's whack...

 

[beautyandbrains]

looks like I am getting Box 19 and Box 8

So excited about Box 19 - 3 makeup samples to try? Yes please! I was hoping to get a mascara sample to save for my trip to Europe in August, I love bright glosses and haven't tried Jouer yet so that makes me happy. Also, the highlighter sample will probably last forever since I use so little

Box 8 - meh, not crazy in love but not totally disappointed either. I really wish they would get rid of Color Club. This is my third bottle and I'm not impressed with it at all. Bring back the Zoya please!!! I've been getting so many hair masks lately so I'll add that to my comparison list I've got going on and hopefully I really love the highlighter because I'm getting two of them

All in all, I'm pretty happy this month....now if they would only get here so I can try everything out!

I'm getting box 3. I'm kind of bummed. I'm excited about Stila but that's it. The Jouer, I just got from Sample Society, plus I ordered more samples form the actual company. If I really love it, I guess it wont be a problem, we'll see... I got the perfume (Live in Love) in Sample Society box last month. I like it, but I would have loved to try something else. The Alterna, earbuds, and Larabar are okay I guess....

I don't know how you ladies do multiple subscriptions! I only have 2 (Birchbox and Sample Society) and I already have multiple duplicates.
