(SPOILERS) July Birchbox partners with Glamour Magazine

[karenX]

I love the laura gellar lipstick that came with my box! Great colour(s), and the formula is very moisturising. The perfume is also really nice. Love it. 

I also dig the earbuds. They fit me well. Haven't used them, but they do fit. lol

 

[elle elle]

Got my box today! The weight was .5390, which I hadn't seen yet.

I have no idea how to make that little link to show spoilers, or if i even can! so... spoilers to follow:
 

I got box 12:

jouer luminizing moisture tint

the color club summer pastels collection

eyeko skinny liquid eyeliner in black

larabar uber

harvey prince hello

earbuds

I like: jouer luminizing moisture tint: I just got it in a sample society box earlier this month, which normally would annoy me but I was dreading running out of it so this will hold me off until I can buy the full-size. I'm also happy with the eyeliner and perfume.

I don't like: the nailpolish... meh. I get shellac on my nails so I don't need it really, and I'd never choose this color for myself. I also don't love the fact that I got only three makeup products.. the earbuds are cool and everything, but really? a bar?

All in all, not a bad box--worth it for the stuff I like at least.

Got both my boxes today and I LOVE them both!

First Box

• Bronzer by Ada Cosmetics - Good sized sample, interested in the new brand
• Hair Gloss Masque - JUST what I need right now, smells pretty good too
• Harvey Prince Hello - SMELLS GREAT for me at least, happy with this sample
• Stila Lip Glaze in Action  - The color is a pretty, shimmery, rosy-pink
• Larabar - As long as it doesnt have that "energy bar taste" I'm good. If not, right in the trash after 1 bite haha
• Earbuds - Meet the queen of lost earbuds. Extra pairs are always welcome

Second Box

• BeautyBlender - *cries tears of joy* YAY!
• Harvey Prince Hello - received in other box as well, gave to my sister, shes a happy camper. Slightly regretting it because I love the smell
• Jouer Moisturizing Tint - received in last months box, and I like the stuff and keep putting off buying it. Now I can put it off even more /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
• Stila Lip Glaze in Camera - Cant complain about a Stila Lip Glaze, the action color is prettier though (May trade this w. mom for her Eyeko!)
• Teaforte - These are good!
• Earbuds - Hello to TWO extra pairs! 

Overall I'm happy with both boxes and will be keeping everything. There really isnt anything I wish I didnt get (except for duplicates, but who cares if I like them (and no color dupes)! 

My house gets 4 boxes between my 2, my mom, and my sister. Some additional products we've got floating around are the Laura Geller lipstick, Shine, Eyeko liner, UV protection, Oscar perfume, etc. I was happy with the LOTS of different things to try out. 

Birchbox gets an A for this month!

 

[Shawnaf]

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 received box #5 and my eyeliner is olive. I am pretty excited about it actually!! I usually stick with black or blue eyeliners and this olive looks great on me!!

Earbuds are super cute, but the sound quality is horrendous.  Oh well.  I think my daughter will like them for her Leap Frog Leapster Explorer!

If you don't mind me asking what is the size of your Jouer  luminizing moisture tint?  .07 or .17?  

There is a lot of talk about the size of that sample as it seems some boxes are getting the smaller one.  Just wondering what is in box 12 as that is the box I am getting.  

Thanks!

ahhh nooo. that was what i was afraid of.

i was hoping they might have partnered with some legitimate headphone brand, but i guess that was wishful thinking

Sorry to hear that. That is what happened with me last month with the Dr. Jart!!  It really is upsetting when that happens.

They didn't me, they sent me a new tube!!  Yea! (being sarcastic)  The new tube of Dr. Jart was not much better.

Would you mind PMing me your email address? I could send you a couple pictures i took and tell you some more about what was in this months box.  As far as i know they dont have a referral system. 

I dont want to hijack the BB thread.

Hi,

I got box one.  Watch out for the manna kadar shimmer lotion...it has a strange cap that doesn't twist off..it pops off...I didn't realize it and got a lot of product all over my fingers. 

 

[JessP]

Goodness gracious.. My box finally shipped yesterday with an expected arrival date of July 17th. I want my Box 5!

Hi all!! I just opened my two boxes and i guess I wished super hard because now I have two Eyeko Skinny Liners in Black!!!! I only need one, so i'd like to use it as leverage to trade for the Laura Geller Lip stick.

I also really want the Boscia BB Cream. I'd settle for the bigger Dr. Jart from this month, but i REALLY want the Boscia.

What I have to trade:

1) Eyeko Skinny Liquid Liner - Black (I did PM someone to see if they would trade their lip stick for this, but PM me anyway because if she doesn't want to swap, i'll move to the next

)

2) Colorclub  Nail Polish - Blue Ming

3) The small Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint - Golden

4) Larabar Uber - Cherry Cobbler

5) The Birch box ear buds - pink/green

6) Vial of Oscar De La Renta  - Live in Love

7) Vial of Harvey Prince Eau Flirt (Lavendar/Pumpkin)

Again, my wishlist is:

1) Laura Geller Double Dipped Lipstick in Caribbean Kiss

2) Boscia B.B. Cream SPF 27 PA++

   2a) Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm SPF 25

3) amika Obliphica Hair Treatment and/or amika Obliphica Nourishing Mask

4) Maybe the Suki Nourishing or Balancing regimen packets

Just PM me /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />!

I was gonna warn the same thing! Stupid design for a sample to be used multiple times :/ I got it on my hands too...man it is shimmery!

I received box #8 for my main account, that sure is a lot of good stuff for 10 bucks!

 

[amblingalp]

I assume this is the place to post up photos of our boxes? If not I'll remove, but I received:



That's the black eyeliner, too. In the wrapping is the Hello perfume sample and Alterna Bamboo UV+ fluide. Made me a happy girl on my way to work this afternoon!

Box twinnnnnnnnns!!!!!

Also, does anyone else get annoyed when you like a product and it's sold out/on backorder? I end up NOT buying it from BB because I suck at delayed gratification.
