So I was getting a great box this month and then my shipping never moved from the 7th. So the latest is they think it’s lost and they’re not going to charge me next month and are supposed to send me some random crap. Hooray for me.

Ugh, I got pretty much everything I DIDN’T want.
May be time to cancel.

Haven’t gotten mine yet. According to my reveal, I’m in the same boat. I never get perfume and would have killed to try the Tocca or the Lavanilla. I don’t think they read the profiles at all. I am about to try another box if things don’t get better with Birchbox…

YAWN. The only thing I like is the Amika balm, and it was my pick for the month anyway. Another eyeko, another Real Chemistry cleansing foam, the SMALLEST beauty blender. It’s funny, I got my IPSY bag the same day and it’s clear they have BIGGER samples! And stuff I want to try! C’mon Birchbox, where’s all the makeup? I just started BoxyCharm too. Might cancel BB and keep Play!, Ipsy, and Boxy. I’m so indecisive though, lol.

My worst Birchbox ever! And I have been with them since 2012. Only one usable product, the wipes, exciting. Three hair care products, full of silicones, which destroy my hair and the mac strobe cream and LaRitzy in a color not flattering on me. Really considering throwing in the towel and I don’t quit easily.

I am so glad I canceled. Not much there I would be excited about or that I haven’t already got in a previous box and seriously the Eyeko eyeliner is there every single time!

Wow, that’s a ton of variation!
This was my “first” box (I’d subscribed long ago and cancelled after one box, but recently cancelled Play! so thought I’d give Birchbox another go) and I wish I’d gone with the curated box. I took my chances because I knew I didn’t really want (another) Porefessional or the make up drop.
I got Oribe Wave and Shine, Arrow eye serum, Boi-ing concealer, Dr. Jart water cream and Amika smoothing serum. Nothing I’m really excited about.

So long as I don’t get any of the dry shampoos or the Stila lip, I should be okay.

Or the MAC strobe cream – have several, thank you.
FYI – I got the curated box, and the MakeUp Drop is a mini, not full size

Meh. I would’ve been happy with many of these, but my box was underwhelming yet again. I got the silicon makeup drop, an eyeko brow liner…I don’t even remember what else. The only good thing was the Amika smoothing balm, but I have fine hair that needs volume, so even that won’t work for me.

I got the same box:). This is my last box and I am happy about it.

I think we got the same box. I think the eyeko browliner will be right at home in the box with my seven eyeko eyeliners.

Hahaha! Mine too!

Haha, I haven’t even subscribed to Birchbox since the points change and I already have received like half of these samples. From Birchbox.
