I'm not thrilled from the previews either.  I'm not even the least bit eager for my shipping notice.  My earbuds will also go straight to trade since I hate earbuds in general(hurt my ears).

That just takes me to the main birchbox website.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  Am I doing something wrong?

No shipping notices for me either. But I'm going on vacation before any of those arrival dates, so it doesn't really matter. Guess my Birchboxes will be in the hands of the USPS for quite some time. Both my boxes shipped early last month, so I'm thinking that I'll be in the later wave of boxes this month. Who knows? I've stopped trying to predict with Birchbox! Haha. Too complicated, but I love seeing what everyone gets.

Hmm... now this shipping theory has me curious. I used to get shipment notices on the 10th (boxes on 13th/14th). Didn't like my first box (Welcome Box?), liked my second (Dirt scrub/Vapour Siren Lipstick). GG box came earlier- everybody's did I think (2 arrived same day, one w/full sized stila, one w/out. 1 box came later and was the same as the full sized stila).

Then I changed my profile trend and it arrived on the 7th . But I still liked that box (staniac ^^~)

Haven't gotten a notice for this month, so we shall see! I have a feeling it'll come Monday.

I like to get my box before everyone else, but hey, if it's going to be better things then I'll be patient X_X.

Is everyone getting earbuds? I wonder who makes them, the neon will be interesting.

I wonder if they will send the Eyeko skinny to people who got the Stila sparkle liner previously? I didn't get the Stila, and I would looove to get the Eyeko (black, please!)

im the opposite, I dont like/wear eyeliner so for me the liner would be kinda pointless. so hopefully stila will be in my boxes!

 Didn't someone say last month that that tends to be the trend? Items that are lower in cost and more frequent tend to go out first and items that are more expensive and less frequent go out towards the end? I have no idea if that's true but I thought someone said that is what usually happens.

I don't know, but one of my accounts had one of the first early boxes and I got the Stila bronzer. My second account came later and that box wasn't so good.

Personally I don't think there is that much of a trend... it really just varies month to month!

It seemed that the big item last month was the Stila bronzer which appeared to be in the early boxes sent out.

Both of my boxes were shipped late in the month & both received Eyeko eyeliners. 

I really don't think that it you get an early shipping notice that you will get a bad box.

It does appear that the later you get your box the less chance of someone else that has the same box as you. It looks like there are more boxes of the same in the beginning than towards the end. Like last month, pretty much there were a lot of people getting the Stila bronzer but hardly anyone getting the Melvita rose water or the pore masks.

I got mine about the 17th or 18th last month and got the floral water/skinny liner box. I changed my beauty profile a lot for last month's box and I loved it, so I hope my luck continues. Hopefully just a few more days until boxes start arriving and we can see on the BB website what we're getting!

 

[marybbryant]

I rec'd both my shipping notices on Thursday.  Usually I get one early, and one a few days later.  Both my boxes are being delivered on the 12th.  I wonder if I'm getting 2 of the same boxes?  I have had 2 accounts since January, and this hasnt happened before, and I've gotten very few duplicates, and the dups I did get I was happy to have 2 samples - Orofluidio was one, the lip stain last month that everyone got, and the Jouer LMT (I gave them to a freind who loves that product).  Getting 2 different boxes would be the ideal, but I wont mind getting 2 of the same boxes as long as I like at least a couple of the products, and hopefully if I get a colored item, like eyeliner, I get 2 different shades.  I'm happy with my earbuds that came with my iPhone.  I'm on my 4th iPhone, so I have 4 sets of earbuds,plus a couple pairs I purchased when I left my white ones at home, but the BB earbuds are fun colors. 

 

[marybbryant]

I have had 2 subscriptions since January, and my profile is exactly the same for both, except one says I splurge on face creams, and the other says eye creams, and I have never gotten 2 of the same boxes.  I rec'd both my shipping notices on the same day at the same time this month though, so I have a feeling I'm getting 2 of the same.

That's a referal link, not actually one that will allow you to sign up. Basically, it puts you on the waiting list and when you sign up, referal points goes to the person that linked you. I hope that makes sense, lol.

So I've been a member now since Feb, and I was wondering about the 'no repeats' thing. Does this mean you will never get two of the same item in your box on the same account? Or does it mean that you could get, for instance, a blue stila sparkle liner one month, and then a brown stila sparkle liner a few months later. Or does it mean you can only get the stila sparkle liner one time? And does that also work for things like lara bars and stuff? I got a mini Zoya in my first box in a color I already have, and I was wondering if I will ever get another mini Zoya...or was that my one and only shot?
