I like the cards bc I can take them on a trip and just toss them. No need to worry about pans breaking in my carry on bag, which has happened to me with a blush or two.

Thats a great suggestion for the eye shadow cards, especially with so many people going on vacation the next couple of months. 

Your right about Stila too.  Birchbox has had a lot of not just samples from Stila, but full size products.  There was the full size bronzer stuff last month, and the full size lip glazes this month to name just a few.  People are saying Stila is being cheap with the eye shadow cards, but it seems they actually have been quite generous with Birchbox.

My first box was one with the full size Stila liner. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I got bananas faster also (yuck). Just put on perfume -- Dont like! Too sweet/strong. The BB cream is interesting too as its "one color fits all".

My 3rd account still doesnt have a shipment notice, maybe they are waiting until they all go out before updating our accounts on the website? Just a guess, but this might be why.

Stila Lip Glaze

Dr. Jart+ BB Cream

Alterna Fade Proof Fluide

5 4ml Suki packets

Lara Nut Roll Bar

Earbuds + music downloads

I picked up my 2nd box today!  I deleted the email with the weight - sorry.  Someone has probably posted it here anyway.

Box # 9

Harvey Prince Smile Perfume sample

Eyeko eye liner in green

Alterna Fade Proof Fluide

Tea Forte mints in cocoa something

Earbuds + music downloads

Supergoop serum packets

I'm happy with both my boxes this month. 

I know its probably more luck than anything, but the products I rec'd seemed to be extremely well suited to me.  The Suki Nourish products say they are beneficial to people with rosecea, redness, ect, which I have.  The Dr. Jart+ BB cream is a perfect match for my skintone, and I had wanted to try a colored liquid eyeliner.  I'm a very fair skinned strawberry blond/redhead with kind of weird colored greenish greyish blue eyes.  Because I''m so fair (and over 50) black eyeliner looks harsh on me, and brown doesnt look good with my eyes.  I normally wear gray eyeliner, and sometimes the Stila Smudge Stick in Purple Tang that I rec'd in a previous Birchbox.  I think the green Eyeko will be a good color for me.  I wanted a liquid eye liner as I think its easier to create a kitten or cat eye with the liquid than it is wth pencil.

The purple Eyeko that some are recieving this month looks like a really pretty color too.  I might have to purchase that one!

I love the eyeliner - I got it in Olive and it is so pretty and so easy to use! 

My box's weight is similar at .6670, but I think it shipped later that yours.  I will be like 

that if I get it.

It looks like you and your 3 daughters are all getting different boxes this month.  You all must have your own little trade group! 

Thanks for posting the boxes for us every month. It looks like a bit of work to do all of  that.

I liked the bar!  However, that perfume is way strong.  I put a tiny bit on and then scrubbed my wrist to get it off!!!!

I'm waiting for the feedback buttons too. I want my points so I can use them to shop!  Maybe BB is going to wait until we actually have a chance to try our samples?

 

[lovesmakeup2012]

I wonder what the BB and Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint shades are in?

I know influenster does something like that, which kind of makes sense but I want to use my points ASAP!

I'm just picky and not a fan of bananas! Will probably donate it to someone at work.  Perfumes still on me. Hoping it fades soon. I think some people would like it, its just not my style. Too florally and sweet I guess /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> So happy with rest of the box though.
