(SPOILERS) July Birchbox partners with Glamour Magazine

I think that if a company advertises specifically what's in the box, then everyone should get what's advertised.

The Oscar perfume was in june's SS box, (but honestly- the box pictured looks like maybe a full sized? for sure bigger than the sample ss sent out) 

The Alterna UV thing was in May's ss box i think. 

Some of the others too maybe? Have only been subscribing 2 months, so i'm not sure. 

pic that went with the text spoiler I put up last night. 

OOO the picture makes me very excited! I have that Live in Love perfume from the SS box this month. If anyone ends up loving it, I'd be happy to give you mine. It was a mini bottle, not a little vial. It's a pleasant fragrance, but a little too green or something for my chemistry.

So either way for $10 bucks I appreciate everything in my boxes.

But if we get some Headphones as people in New York would say...THAT'S POPPPIINNNNNN! lol

good philosophy. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I agree. That was the issue with the GG box (and the fact that it was so over hyped), about 3 people got the Dior Mascara when that was one of the advertised goodies.

This looks like a "we have tons of left overs from previous months, lets throw a bunch of it in a box and slap Glamour on it!" Just my opinion!

That is totally the vibe I'm getting. Not regretting my cancellation!

Maybe the "we have a bunch of left overs" will lead to an awesome August box?  Or September (back to school)?  A wiping of the slate so to speak?  It will be interesting...

Can't wait to see!

i'm down for this without even smelling it - never met a fragrance in this line that i did not love. lifelong love affair haha /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I am kind of keen on the something for every five senses, though! That does make for a kinda well-rounded box! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I planned on cancelling after I get my 20% off/3rd month anniversary coupon this month. But after hearing its "supposed" to be a great box, im not really seeing anything too special about so it im kinda on the fence. Im just scared i'll cancel & miss out on something

I cancelled, and I was afraid of the same thing too. I just told myself that with the money I save from not buying all these sample boxes, I can get myself something that I actually want!

Me too!

I signed up for SS and will get the July box. Being new to "sample" boxes I started with BB and MYGLAM. Cancled MG last month and have been kind of under-whelmed by BB. I guess I had expected a little more and didnt realized when I signed up that there were so many different boxes. They sure do hype the BIG brands, that I have yet to recieve in any of my boxes.

Looking forward to SS and giving BB another month.

LOL I know how you ladies feel, it's another reason I haven't dropped Sample Society or MyGlam because "what if the next month has..." type of mentality. I REALLY need to drop a couple more. I know it WON'T be Julep or Birchbox so that leaves Glossybox, MyGlam and Sample Society.

I would LOVE a color club nail polish in mint!!! Every color club I have gotten, I have ended up purchasing because I used up the entire sample!

Agreed. I cancelled Myglam in May, but after seeing the sneak peeks for June I regretted canceling so much!

 

[Naun-Negotiable]

Ahhhh i just got an email saying i can sign up for june's glossybox. if i only had any money in my paypal account i would jump on it in a heartbeat. but alas!

not sure if i will keep 2 BBs next month - guess it depends what the first wave (or spoiler pics) looks like? i WILL cancel the 2nd BB again as soon as i rate everything this month though. re-sub if needed~

I purchased the Color Club polish in Age of Aquarious and I am IN LOVE with the color!!!! The formula was a bit tricky for me though so I only did my toes. I wonder if its just  a problem with that color.....
