Has anyone been able to make the cuticle oil work? I can’t get it to come out of the rollerball. I got two of them and had the same problem with both.

Julia, thank you for pointing out my misspelling of Voila! I was hoping people would understand what I meant but thanks to your clarification I’m sure they will now. Hope you are having a great day! 😊 Also, just a tip, the first word in a sentence begins with a capital letter. Now we both know something new!
-Hola Neon Lipstick Balm (Feed the lip color addiction) 🙂
-Beautaniq Hand Cream (Maybe the least interesting, but if my hands start to crack again i may be glad I have it)
-Verb Ghost Hair Mask (What’s funny about this is I nearly bought it today as an Ipsy Add-on, but ultimately chose the Briogeo Avocado Mask. So now I get both. Lol)

That Verb mask is great!

Cool, good to hear. I’ll looking forward to trying it. My hair can suddenly get really weird. I’ll clarify and use a heavier conditioner, but I’ve never tried any masks.
Love moisturizers, hair or face doesn’t matter.
I didn’t pick a product, but I wish I would have picked the setting spray so I could have maybe avoided the lipstick? None of them appealed to me though, so I guess it’ll be a stocking stuffer for someone else 🙂

I chose the Hola Neon lipstick balm and I’m getting the Lise Watier makeup setting spray, Kiehl’s calendula water cream, Marcelle mask, rose hand cream, and TokyoMilk Dark La Vie la Mort perfume! So excited! I love perfume and I’ve never tried anything from TokyoMilk but I’ve heard great things. I also LOVE Kiehl’s and a I LOVE Lise Watier. They are a brand Birchbox introduced me to awhile back and I have liked everything I’ve ever tried from them. I was hoping the nail polish would show up in my box (lol I guess the polish name is accurate) but I am still absolutely thrilled!

Does anyone know if Birchbox plans to unveil an advent calendar for this year?

Considering that it’s 1st week on December and advent calendars are meant to be opened beginning Dec 1st, I don’t think so.

Thanks, Nat. That’s too bad. They have an advent available for those living in the UK.

I read that all subscribers will get a green velvet bag instead of the usual cardboard box, an eyelash curler in either red or pink, and at least 2 makeup products (eyeshadow and eyeliner).
My reveal is up, but it’s showing 4 products (no eyelash curler, eyeshadow, or liner), and one “error” product that won’t load.

That’s for UK Birchbox only–not US subscribers.

I also selected the nail polish and am getting 5 other things (yay!):
Verb hair mask, Beautaniq Rose handcream, Arrow moisturizer, Lisa Watier mist, and Marcelle CC.

My reveal isn’t up yet, but I did choose the nail polish as my sample pick 🙂

Mine isn’t “technically” up yet either but a little trick I learned from MSA commenters is If you have the Birchbox app on your phone you can hit the 3 lines in the top left hand corner of the app and click on “boxes” then click on “showing all boxes” and then there will be an option to click on “show all samples” and Viola’! You can see your box before they give you the official reveal.

Thanks for the tip Joy! 🙂 I don’t have the app on my phone, so I’ll have to (im)patiently wait for my reveal, lol.

Ah… thanks for the tip. So now I know I’m getting: Lise Watier fixative mist (I’m good with that), Hola Neon Lipstick Balm (meh, shade doesn’t look like it will work for me), Beautaniq Handcream (can’t handle rose scented products, so will pass it along), Nails Inc Polish (my choice), and Verb Ghost Hair Mask (I’m good with that).
I’m not sure why I picked a sample since I got all 3 of the options, lol. Also curious to know why some people are getting 5 samples, and some 6. That seems odd to me, but I’m a newer subscriber so maybe I’m just not aware of something or other.
Julia
viola or cello? Maybe voila.
Amy
THANK YOU!!
I got the 2/$10 promo boxes, I think the second one will be random but my proper December box has
Lise Watier Makeup Fixative Mist- eh but might be good for eyeshadow
Kiehl’s Calendula Water Cream- sounds nice! And anti-redness which is great for me
Hola Neon Lipstick Balm – eh, not my color and I don’t do balms
Beautaniq Rose Hand Cream – I hate rose scents, but I’ll toss it in the gift pile
Verb Ghost Hair Mask – I’ll need to research this!
All in all not bad, certainly a winner for $5!
Sherri
Same and same. Yay, I’m like Luna! 😉
