Ipsy sent me a white-ish looking nail polish. Looks like I'll be giving away polish if they send it every month. I use polish, but only a small range of colors. I will go check out BB.

They sent me a very pretty light blue color. It's very spring-like. Girl liked it so it went up to her room. :lol:

My favorite item to get is mascara. I can never have enough tubes.

I subscribe to birch box. I got a "extra" box this month. It included full size "Nuance" products by Salma Hayak... I'll have to take a pic of it and upload it later.

They should have a Dude box service. Once a month you get pork rinds or a new screw driver.

I am waiting for my first Ipsybag. :cds: It needs to hurry.

I hope mine is in the mailbox when I check it this afternoon. My BB was so-so this month. I received a small nail polish in an orange/coral color, a sampling of face wash, moisturizer, eye gel, and some other things (hardly a pointer finger of each), a SMALL pack of gum (I don't chew gum), a good size bottle of leave-in hair conditioner (that doesn't work) and what looks like a hotel bottle of body lotion. It smells okay, but nothing that I would use daily.

Did you go online and update your profile ? Apparently Birch Box is sending stuff based on what you chose on your profile.

I heard birch box's samples were shrinking, so after looking at your links, decided on the ipsy bag.

I liked my first Ipsy, waiting on the 2nd now.

Just got my first BB. Here is what I received (5 items):

1) Juicy Couture fragrance sample .05 oz
2) Lemongrass and natural sugar exfoliate foaming cleanser .25 oz
3) Matchbox itty bitty Tweezerman files (nail emory boards mini) box of 12
4) Color Club pink nail lacquer .25 oz
5) Milenesse Glossy Kiss Starlet lip and cheek color (full Size o.15 oz 4g)- this is a VERY dark wine color that I doubt I will use on my fair skin unless I can somehow lighten the color by mixing it with a lighter shade.

Personally I think these companies are being way too stingy with the size of the product samples they offer considering the amount of money they make from the product sales.

I can't wait for my Ipsy bag to arrive. I peeked earlier today and looked at what I'll get and I like everything but the eyeshadow palette. It's very glittery and bright. That will go to my daughter, who is 16.

Same here. I don't wear gel liner so I'm kinda' bummed, but I'll try it and see how I like it.

My June BB included the following:

29 Skincare Sampler (too little samples to be useful or determine if I like it)
Beauty Protector Protect & Detangle (good stuff)
Glee Gum Sugar-free Glee Case (I don't chew gum)
Color Club Wanderlust Collection (a bright orange/coral that I gave to girl)
Antica Farmacista Le Emulsioni Corpo Vellutanti Body Moisturizer (eh, it'll go in my "travel" bag)

I received this gel eyeliner in my Ipsy bag this month and love it!! LINEFIX GEL EYELINER I'm surprised, too... I thought I'd hate it. The color is nice (iron), and it goes on very smoothly. The only downside I have is that it doesn't stay on as long as I'd like, but that's okay. The price is $21 so for just receiving this alone, my $10 bag this month was well worth it!!

I am a big fan of the bag, I finally got it yesterday. I gave roomie the eyeliner and she hasn't tried it yet. But i do really love the highlighter pencil I got, works perfect for me as an upper lid liner, makes my eyes look huge. The cream blush is quite nice too, I am very fair and I am able to use it without it looking obvious or clownish. all in all, def worth the 10 bucks...good find!

I do agree the blush is very natural looking. I've been wearing it for a few days and like it. All the products are decent size, unlike BB samples have been lately.

I got my 1-year anniversary gift from BB the other day. It's a chinsy key chain that I'll never use and will probably trash. :bigwhoop:
