I got box #4, and my Jouer LMT is SOOO small.  I thought I saw something earlier that showed a picture of it being nearly 3 inches in length...mine is like 1.5 inches.

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.
The jouer sample is TINY!

 
Has anyone who got an item this month that they'd gotten before (specifically the Jouer gloss) emailed and heard anything back?  I know it might take them a few days, especially this time of month.  Just curious.

Also, I got box 3, and I did get the "big" Jouer LMT.  I'm sure of this because I got the smaller version in Feb on my other sub.  The "small" version is .07 oz and the "big" version is .17 oz.  I'm not sure why they'd be different, that sort of stinks.

 
Also, my Stila lip glaze color is Action.  I actually really like the color, it reminds me of the Buxom Sugar color, which is my 2nd favorite gloss.  I was just going to trade it since I don't really like Stila's lip stuff, but I think I might give it a go since I like the color so much.  I realized that the formula I had previously bought and tried was the plumping glaze not the regular stuff, so maybe I'll like it more, though I didn't care for the brush applicator either - I end up just dispensing it onto my finger.

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. 
LMAO underwear! I'm sorry your box is not that great, but hey BB points and free box isn't too bad. I was lucky in that my box mix-up worked out OK and I actually wound up liking some things I thought I wasn't going to like.

 
If anyone has been wanting to try the Juliette Has a Gun perfumes, you can order a "discovery kit" directly from their website for about $11 (including shipping from France!)

You get a 2 mL vial of all 8 varieties, and they each come packaged in a little envelope with a card describing the perfume - super cute! Plus, if you decide to buy one of them, you are refunded the cost of the discovery kit. It's a pretty sweet deal!

I will be getting the Blinc mascara.. For those that have had it before, did you like it? Trying to decide if I keep it or swap it..
I love it. When I first got it the formula was really wet, but it thickened up after a while and now it's perfect. It's the only mascara that doesn't end up smudging under my eyes, and I don't have to use eye makeup remover to get it off. My only disappointment was buying the full size and discovering that the brush was different and that it blows. I don't understand why they use a different brush type for the sample, especially when the whole point is to make sure you want the bigger one.

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.
Thanks! I looked around a little bit but not too much.  What is the 'product price point'?  I did see it was quite a bit more expensive but it sounds like it's worth it.  I think my daughter would love it!  Someone else mentioned 'goodebox' and it looks good as well but I think my daughter is looking for food and household items as well as makeup which it seems like Conscious Box has food/household items.  Is there a point system where I could help you get points for referral?  Yes, if you could let me see what was in your box somehow that would be great.  Thanks!

I really want to buy the Amika hair products, but I haven't gotten any of the samples in the last two boxes 
icon_sad.gif
 Can anyone tell me what it smells like and how it compares to moroccan oil? If anyone has the two samples (mask and treatment) and the Boscia BB cream I would be willing to trade my blinc mascara, stila lip gloss, and the stila card palette for them.
