Have you smelled jingle g before? I swear its pretty close to a dupe. It was discintinued though.

Hello didn't last long either. I kept spraying it on my wrists so that I could smell it again though lol.

I'm not usually a person who is into perfume samples but you guys got me excited to try the Discovery Kit from Juliette's Got A Gun. I ordered it today. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Can someone review the perfumes? Would u say you found one you really liked? How different are the scents?

Box 19

Oscar de la Renta Live in Love - I LOVE it. Super shocked, this might be something I have to buy. It's so expensive though!

Jouer Lip Gloss - I got this one in Wind. I like this a lot too, it's not sticky and is a great color, but $20? No way.

blinc Mascara - Eh. Nothing spectacular. Doesn't clump, though.

TeaForte Minteas - Got these in Lime Mojito. Interesting flavor, but I'm just not sure what makes them different than anything else.

Haven't tried the Manna shimmer lotion though, but I see good things about it! The earbuds were surprising quality too. Overall this box was my favorite yet!

I FINALLY got my 2nd box today and that's the same box that I got. The only differences are I got the minteas in matcha chai and the jouer in peony (light pink).  Did your (or anyone else's) Live in Love vial come half full? It looks like some may have leaked out, but nothing really got messed up. I was wondering if I should contact them. I thought I would hate the scent from the description, but it's better than I expected. I was also missing the ear buds.

Don't know if you're into trading, but I got the SS deluxe sanple and the BB sample and I hate that 'fume. I must have too many memories of Oscar and Nancy Reagan in the 80's and those ugly dresses...

Mine was completely empty, i emailed them and got points.

Color Club sucks in my opinion! I ordered a full-size "clambake coral" for $8. It has the name coral cascade on the bottom, and it is the streakiest mess. There is no making it look good, I had to take it off. What a dissapointment. I thought maybe I just got an unlucky bottle, then I got blue ming, also crap! Then...I was at Ross, and they had like a set of 8 of the neon polishes for $7.99! Wow, I paid $8 for a polish that is not worth a dollar! I wish birchbox wouldn't sell us crappy nail polish disguized as a good brand!

That does really bug me. I like Color Club for the most part, but I see them locally for $3.99 all the time, not on sale

Unfortunately I have to agree. I really don't like their clumpy quality of polish. I think the brush stinks too and that is also why application is bad. I think I have one club polish that wasn't bad and it was the neon pink color, but otherwise they all streak and don't last long. My local drug store polishes are way better & cheaper!

What Color Club DOES do well is Christmas scented polishes.  I used a gold one the other day for a pattern and forgot what it was until I'm like "MY FINGERS SMELL LIKE GINGERBREAD." Totally off topic.

These ear phones really are bad.  I've got a nasty ear infection so I'm using them right now and letting them have all my bacteria and tossing when I'm done.

PLEASE anyone have the PURPLE Eyeko Skinny Liner? I have the OLIVE for trade. I'll even add anything on my list..I don't have much left. I'm desperate now 

 

[cheetahchirps]

I just got the gorgeous on the go summer edition and I think its amazeballs.

2 hair clips, ridiculously huge like the old banana clips, in gold and green. My hair's too fine, swap bait

2 big Supergoop SPF 30 sunscreen swipes

25 Boscia blotting linens

Eyeko Skinny eyeliner in olive (although the box says black)

Nice big purse-size Oribe Dry texturizing spray 2.2 oz. It seems to be a combination hairspray/volumizer and dry shampoo

Dr. Harushka Skin Care radiant You kit:

.34 oz cleansing cream

.34 oz. Lavendar bath oil

.34 Facial Toner

.08 Rejuvenating Mask

Benefit Finding Mr. Bright:

cute mirrored box with Girl Meets Pearl liquid pearl for face, .25 oz

Posie Tint poppy-pink tinted lip and cheek stain, .13 oz.

High Beam Luminescent complexion enhancer, .08 oz.

Erase Paste brightening camouflage for eyes and face. .11oz. Mine was in no. 2 medium

Zoya in Coraline, might look pretty with several coats

I was very pleasantly surprised, it's like the best Birchbox you could ever get but more.

 

[lovelockdown]

^ on the birchbox website, if you keep clicking for more images for the gorgeous on the go, it states that the eyeliner and nailpolish are random colors...so some people may get the black one.

Second in line with the trade idea.  I have a full mini size bottle and a full carded vial too.  If you take me and her up on it, you'll have two pretty good size travel bottles (that are adorable!) and two more vials to fill them with, should last you a little bit at least.  Let me know if you have or decide to make a trade list!  Good luck!

p.s.  If you do decide you want them, grab 'em up fast.  I don't get a chance to do that often, because by the time I get my hands on my boxes and try some stuff out and fall in love with it, everyone's traded the must have items!  I would have loved to know that byTerry Comfort Creme and Ren Glycoactive Mask would become staples in my beauty routine and traded right away for them, but by the time I got around to thinking about it, everyone's were gone.  Anyone have any left, by chance?  Also, any Clark's Botanicals.  That came in January's box and I also got a same size little thing of their mask and I've used it four times already and there is still some left, so even though they're expensive, they last a long time.

I might end up with one.  Can't stand to see one of my fellow Makeup Talkers getting desperate, I'll try to help if I can!  I get my boxes when I get to the States in August and two are coming to me.  It's one of the months where having multiple boxes is making me a very happy girl! So if I get two purples, it could be a possibility.  I got one in black in last month's box and I adore it.  It is one of the best eye pens I've ever used.  Not too sloppy, easy to use so it doesn't make a big mess, amazing.  Did you try one of yours in another color?  What did you think?  I might have to try more from that brand, although people haven't been giving the Fat Stick as rave of reviews.  I used the skinny liner for a special dinner out and did a cat's eye winged eyeliner type thing and then muted it down by layering some shadows from the Naked II palette over it and it worked really well!  Sometimes those types of liners don't like to be layered, but this one worked out great.  My hubby even mentioned liking my eye makeup, and he doesn't mention specifics about makeup very often, so that was very nice.  If you don't end up getting one, pm me and we can maybe work a last case scenario out for you.  I probably would want to trade for other stuff as I'm swimming in eyeliners at the moment.  Here's my wishlist:
