okay looks like i was wrong! box 1 and 31 only have 5 items, but it kind of looks like they have full(ish) sized lipsticks -maybe that's why. and the boxes that have the amika products have 7 items so i'm betting those are really small foil packs like the keratasse shampoo and conditioner were.

 
I think you're right box 18 looks like it says "In the Moment" under the Stila logo??? Sorry if this double posted... still figuring this out

I'm actually excited by the looks of this months boxes.  There were several that looked good to me and not one that I really don't want (and I usually get that box, lol).  If the no repeats rule is true, then it knocks about half of the boxes out for me and the remaining boxes look great!  I haven't gotten my shipping notice yet and I can't wait to find out which box I'm really going to get.

The purple thing in the background of Box 18 sure looks a lot like the Stila 'In the Moment' Eye Shadow Palette.  That would be sweet.

  The coloring looks kind of different in the pic on Birchbox though...maybe it's a sample card?  But the full size would be amazing!
I think you're right! If you super enlarge the photo... it looks like it says "in the moment" under the Stila logo!!!

 
I just got my shipping notice.

I think when you get your shipping notification there is a reference number appearing below the tracking number. I think the first two digits are the box you'll get. Sure enough it correspended to Zadi's chart and going to my account confirmed it, unless it was one devil of a coincidence.
There's not one in the email itself, but if you look at the link, it shows a long string of digits before the tracking number.  For those who's tracking information isn't loaded yet, I think this may be the same number.  If so, I'm getting box number 20.  It very well could be a coincidence, but it might not be.  It'd be awesome if it isn't.

And yes, another month that I've sworn I would totally let myself be surprised.  Why do I allow myself to have no self control?

 
First box has a weight of .4940, and my second box just got shipped today, no weight though. 

Also, to whoever said I should just get my aunt a gift sub, and put it on her cc.  Thank you!  That's what we did, and her first box ships tomorrow!  She's so excited!

 
Glad to see that the earbuds are in most boxes. One of them without has a twistband hair tie, which I previously got in a box before I canceled and resubscribed. So I hope that won't be the one. I really want those earbuds for some reason lol

Where are you seeing the reference #?? I got my notification email but didn't see one.

 
Where is the box list? I'm not sure what page it's on and just spent a while looking. Lol.

 
I got my shipping notices for both my accounts at the same time. Looks like I'll be getting duplicate boxes. This is the second time I've had this happen out of the three months I've had my second account. Bummer.

I hope I get Box 5 but I'm not optimistic.

The $15 off $50 Sample Society is good ONLY on purchasing products from any of the brands listed that month. For example, BBSOCIETYJUN is only good if you have at least one item (any item) from Alterna, Caudalie, Oscar de la Renta, Jane Iredale or Murad. So say I wanted to use that $15 off $50 but there really wasn't anything I wanted from those products I would pick something like the Jane Iredale blotting paper refills for $4.50 then had another $45.50 in items to buy to use that $15 off. This is why I dropped SS because $15 a month in products that I get in Birchbox isn't worth it to me when the "rewards" of Sample Society require me to spend $35 a month on products ($50 - $15 = $35). At least with Birchbox I'm spending only $10 a month and earning between 40 to 60 points per month which after every 100 points I can redeem for $10 and stack that to earn free products without paying a dime out of pocket.


Exactly! This is why I dropped Sample Society also. I can find promo codes that give better deals without having to join anything.

The perks of SS is great customer service & true deluxe samples but I didn't like the coupon perk, repeated products that other sample subscriptions already had and generally I felt the items just were not my cup of tea. I basically traded all the items in my boxes.

Right now they are offering 3 free samples on their site. They do ask for a credit card number, but don't charge you.

Im up for box 2 (i really want that beauty blender), 12, 19(lip gloss! and mascara!), I also wouldnt mind one with a nice lipstick! I spotted it in two boxes, as long as its not a grandma kinda color!

it has 5. if you click on the link the full box pictures are showing up now. it seems like box 1 is a stinker though, i've seen some boxes that have 7 items this month, like box 18 looks pretty hefty.
