I think the actual sign up links are only active for a short period of time, you might have to just wait it out :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

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? 
I've gotten Zoya numerous times. Different colours don't count towards the "no repeats" thing.

I accidentally got a repeat once, and they wrote me back and said that shouldn't have happened - then sent me something else.

Also, I don't think it necessarily applies to the Food items. I don't really think that you'd ever receive another Sparkle Liner, either, though(even if a different colour). Mostly because Zoya only offers one type of item, while Stila offers many types. You may receive a different type of liner, but probably not the same formula.  While with Zoya, their goal IS to sample the new colours, not just formula - so you're likely to get them again, but in a different colour.

I used to find them as soon as my box shipped....but last month they stopped working like that and this month no one has found feedback yet. Maybe they changed that :/

 
Bummer. I got my shipping notice so I went to see if I could find anything out, and nothing... Last month was my first month so I wasn't sure.

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


No. It's a referral link for her to earn 50 points. It's not allowed on MUT.
 
First look at a box. 

http://www.product-girl.com/archives/birchbox-july-2012/
The eyeliner is cool but I rather the lip gloss! and i think the ear buds does come in every box.so if you dont want yours, ill be glad to take them off your hands :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

also can somebody tell me how I leave feedback for a trade. i clicked the traders feedback button under the profile pic but i still dont know where to leave my comments.

Thanks!

 
For those talking about repeats, I have been with BB over a year and don't recall ever getting a repeat but have heard that those that do usually receive 100 points. I have recieved Zoya a few times (all different shades) but makeup wise, I have never had a repeat but in a different color.. Since I got the Eyeko skinny liner in Olive last month, I highly doubt I would get it again this month in another shade.

Thanks for the screen shots, I am hoping that I get a couple of these products now!

 
Count me in as one whose cat devours headphones like there's no tomorrow... So those will find a use eventually, because it never fails that if I forget to hide a pair from her, they end up in pieces!!  I'm hoping for a black liner, because I've been wanting to try it based on everyone's previous reviews!  If I get a stila gloss or another color liner, I'll be putting them up for trade!  Excited that I discovered the glories of the trade thread last month. lol

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!


There isn't a trend...I usually get the later boxes and I never get the "good" ones. And good is subjective anyway. Birchbox doesn't sit there and say "welp, the crap boxes are done, let's ship them out so we have room to pack the good ones..."  LOL. It's all just luck, people just like to drive themselves crazy.
 
Haven't gotten a shipping notice yet. I kinda hope that's a good thing. Last month I didn't get the stila :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I got the crappy box with the beauty blender cleanser. The month before that was the Stila liner and I didn't get that either I got the lip fusion balm which was awful! I hope that I get the Stila lipgloss this month or at least something full sized. I don't know I feel like it's really all about luck with BB but I really wish they would even out the value of the boxes so that everyone gets about the same value and some boxes aren't getting a box with a full sized product worth over $30 and some boxes are only say $15 dollar value. I don't want anyone to think I am complaining because that's not the case just sucks sometimes to see such great boxes and think why didn't I get that box...lol. Oh well have a great day everyone and I shall be stalking my email waiting for my shipping info!

That stuff never pops up (except in rare glitches/accidents) until the site updates on the 10th. Always. So if you get your shipping notice on or after the 10th, the info will be there...if not, you wait. 

 
Ooooo, thank for the screen shots.  Now I'm getting excited!  These items are more interesting to me than some of the other stuff I've seen.  Hope I get stuff from the highlighter video.

Aw, that's so sweet.  It's nice to make our hubbies happy.  He's also "the man!" to wear bright neon earbuds, that's the kind of guy I like, one with confidence!  It's like guys who either can wear pink shirts or can't (don't want to).  Here in the tropics pink shirts are more common, but even in the States, I like my sweetie in a classic Ralph Lauren pink oxford shirt.  I'm a sucker for a guy in a button down shirt.  How did I accidentally turn this into true confessions?

Thank you. My husband wont wear a pink shirt, though when it comes to accessories he could care less.

I would love the liner, Ive had the gloss in the past too and it was a bit sticky to me so well see? Overall I think it will still be a fun box.
