Can't wait to get my Birchbox! After the glossybox issues I've had, remembering birchbox exists is like putting on a pair of your favorite sweatpants - comfy and familiar!

 Im hoping we get some stila!!! Ive been loving stila more than ever before because i got some last month and then i got their set and correct in their beautyfix. and I already love their lip glazes. If we got some lip glaze in our boxes or maybe a blush, I would be a VERY happy girl. As for the eyeko, Im not to thrilled about the quality of they fat eyestick. the formula isnt too good for anyone with oily lids. even with different high end primers, the thing creases, so i dont have high hopes for the liquid pen one. Actually, no more liner, except for stila(i really want to try more stila) and i hope there is a different perfume sample or better yet, none at all. the headphones arnt something i would use at all! I have nice ones and I dont plan of using those, even as a spare. Im getting really tired of food in my box becuase I subbed for makeup not food. Never tried jouer so wouldnt mine that and the boscia sheets im not crazy about but wouldnt mine it.
 
What about you?

Purpose is a good, basic cleaner for me, sometimes a little too drying in the winter, but it's definitely does its job of removing makeup and cleaning my skin. 

I got sucked into buying Purity after getting a Philosophy facial at a Nordstrom event. At first it made my skin super soft which I loved, but soon I had painful red cystic acne of my cheeks that lasted for weeks. I know so many people who swear by Purity, but unfortunately it didn't work for me. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

Oh well, at least Purpose works and is less expensive!

Really? The Purpose never dried my skin, but the reason might be that my skin is combination-oily!

Thanks for the information /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Too bad that the Purity didn't wok for you... painful red cystic acne sounds horrible! I hate getting zits and I only have one every once in a while, so I really hope I don't have the same reaction! Anyway, it would be great if I got to try it in one of my subscription boxes, so that I don't have to buy the whole bottle /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

A little off topic, and I'm sure someone has posted this on another thread somewhere, BUT today if you go to the Zoya website, search for the color "America" and then type in promo FREEDOM2 the polish and shipping is free! Happy 4th!

I'm psyched to have another pair of beater ear buds.  I lose so many pairs it kills me.  I gave up buying nice ones, it's worse than pens with me. I'm sustaining an entire cheap ear bud factory somewhere.

The way my ear is shaped the only ones that stay in are the in ear ones, which I hate because I run and they tend to block all noise, which can be really dangerous on the street.  One day I'll buy these http://haloheadphones.com/us/index.php but I'm afraid of it slipping off my head like these things tend to do on me.  I guess when I go to get my ears reconstructed to hold on to earbuds I'll have them do something about my skull too.

I'm a big runner and I use yurbuds for running.  They're sized to your ear and really stay in.  They block out some noise but not all--which is a concern for me  too.

I don't have anything listed now. I'll probably get to listing some things at the end of this month or beginning of next.

I did that and it accepted the code, but it's still saying 8$ for the polish. Am I doing something wrong?

The Zoya website was down for quite a while this morning, so methinks they have figured out (and corrected) the error that allowed a free polish without a purchase.

Yeah I saw on their facebook that they had cancelled everyones order because you were suppose to have to spend $10 to get it. So I guess you have to redo your order. I'm not exactly sure because I didn't place a order, but I saw on the comment where everyone was fussing because they thought you were suppose to get it free, not have to spend $10.

Whoohooo! Melvita is sending me samples. They originally told me no because the cs agent who replied to my e-mail misunderstood and thought I was only interested in acne treatment. I replied back and said I had said organic OR geared toward acne. I got an e-mail today saying they will be in the maiil

How do you get samples?

You can email them for the samples. If you go a few pages back, there were others talking about how to get samples from a few companies.

No problem! I hope it works out for you!! If you don't receive Purity in a subscription box, it is stocked at Sephora and they are usually really generous with samples. I went in the other day and got two perfume samples, a sample of Kate Somerville sunscreen serum and Too Faced Beauty Balm and all the sales associates were happy to make them up and give them too me.
