Oooh I would love to trade for it if you want. I have been wanting to try it for a long time.

Yes! They are a card! Don't forget to use the spoiler option in case there is anyone still wanting surprises!! haha :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I'm surprised to be getting duplicate boxes this month considering the weights were different on my accounts....box 7 for me. Slightly disappointed.

Definitely email them. They claim they choose things based on your profile (mm hmmm) so if you get a totally diff box than the one they said you should get, I would DEF ask them about it. Try calling, it gets a faster response than an email :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
Thanks so much. 

I just called and they said they can't switch the boxes out because there are no more of my boxes (15) left. BUT they are giving me August free, which I guess is a bonus. I'm kind of bummed though! I was really looking forward to the mints and the hair mask! I guess I'll have to go trade. 

I ended up with box 3, if anyone wants to trade for anything in the box! I'll let go of everything!

Does anyone know what I should do in this situation? Can I contact them and be like, actually I would much prefer the box your site says I'm going to get? Or will that not work? 

Any advice from anyone who's had a similar experience would be seriously appreciated!!
This happened to me once. I was also super-excited by the box I thought I was going to get! I emailed customer service, and all they could really do for me was update the site to reflect the box I did get, which they said was the correct box, and as far as the things I really WANTED to try I was basically SOL (though they told me that nicely, lol).

 
I'm getting 2 box #4s. The weird thing is, my two accounts have completely and totally different profiles.

I resubbed this month hoping to get different boxes, but no such luck.

From all the unboxing videos I've seen so far, every single person got the liquid eyeliner in black. So I really doubt I'm going to get anything but that color.

Has anyone gotten the blue or the green on here?

I'm not interested in the blotting linens at all, the Oscar perfume sample is a repeat of my sample society box, as is the Jouer. So really not super thrilled with this months box, let alone two of them.

It's just completely meh to me.

I'm thinking I'm going to cancel my second sub again, because it seems silly to have two, and then put up the whole second box for trade if it ends up being exactly the same as my first accounts.

At least it's only $10 though! I still feel like BB is my favorite subscription because you get a lot for the price.

I know I'm so bummed! Everything in the first box was perfect, but this one has a hair product for color-treated hair (which I don't have), and the LMT which I love but is in Bronzed and I'm super pale. Plus the Oscar which I've smelled before and hated cause I'm young and don't want to smell like my grandma. Ohhhhhh well. I guess it's okay cause I get the free box but I was very excited about it. Plus Boscia linens were in the other box and I was planning on using the free shipping to buy the BB cream. 

Haha I feel a little like a kid on Christmas morning who found out her parents bought her underwear as a gift.

Hope I don't get tempted to change the address of her BB to my address instead of canceling it.... Ha!
LOVE the Conscious Box!!

If i had to give up all but 1 of my subscriptions, i would keep Conscious Box hands down!  Its a little more pricer then BB but the box is always packed. The product price point to repurchase isnt expensive.  The sample sizes arent small perfume vials. (I got a full-sized esscential oil this month). 

I really feel like im getting my money's worth. And im getting things that i would actually use or at least try out!

If u havent seen what was in this months box or would like more information, id be happy to help.

Glad i'm getting the earbuds, but chances were good anyways. I'm interested in the mascara, but wish it was full size as I don't seem to have any full size in my box and disappointed that others were getting full size stila and mine seems to be a one time use for each color. Interested to smell the perfume tho.
I would love to have received that box!

I've seen people with teal and purple!

 
Well, I was *hoping* to get one of my two boxes before I left town tonight, but it looks like the first box will be here tomorrow :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> *sad face*

I'll just have to play with my stuff when I get back

Is anyone else having a hard time getting the Glamour sleeve off the box? Both of mine have been so difficult to slide off - the first one I just started ripping!

I also got box 4, and I received the eyeliner in Olive.  Overall, not too thrilled with my box...

I haven't gotten my box yet, but have noticed the girls in several of the unboxing videos on youtube have had quite a difficult time with it!

Mine was crazy hard to remove!
