    Ah ok, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt then, maybe they haven't forgotten me after all!

    Yes mega annoying that I can't do the surveys and get some glossy dots! I can do 2 of them but the others are for different products.

    Got an email from Birchbox tonight. They've dispatched my June box. So should be here soon.

    Oh no Georgiegirl256 was yours not very good this month?

    I wasn't that impressed no :( But I suppose I can't really complain, as I have had a few good ones when other people have been disappointed with theirs.

    I was just going to ask when Birchbox were shipping, as I'm sure it was earlier last month.

    Just checked my email and I've got a shipping email too, I hope it arrives tomorrow! :)

    I had my birchbox dispatch email yesterday. Really looking forward to mine, as have loved all 3 I have previously received. So much better than joliebox, and they have listened to my beauty profile.

    Just hope this ones as good! :)

    My birchbox arrived today! My despatch email only arrived last night, so the courier must have been keen.
    Colour club nail polish in London Calling (pistachio green)
    20ml Green People organic sun lotion spf15. I love getting these little tubes of sun protection as they live in my handbag over summer in case I get ambushed by a sunny day.
    Model co eye liner pencil (full size). I'm just too damn clumsy for eyeliner so this is the one thing I won't use.
    Protect and detangle leave in conditioner (approx 20ml spray). Since I have hair with 'personality' I can't wait to try this.
    Carole Franck phyto moisturiser for the face (10ml).

    Also there was another Colour Club polish in an envelope as part of the win 100 polishes compilation. This one was Mod in Manhattan (off white).

    Again, another box that I'm not tapdancing with joy about, but it is pretty much full of things I'll use.

    I'd seen spoilers before, and wasn't that impressed, but I thought that they might be variations, but it looks like they are all the same/similar :(

    The thing that you say you won't use, I won't either, for the same reasons lol!

    I had the same as you except in the envelope I got exactly the same as was in the box (same as what was in yours, my favourite items). I quite liked it, although a couple of items I have plenty of so will be a long time before I use.

    The thing with Birchbox at the minute for me is that none of the boxes are WOW boxes, but also there haven't been complete duds. I don't feel like I've lost out in the great beauty box lottery as there are not too many variations in the boxes. Whereas Glossybox has more WOW, but also more people complaining that they didn't get the best box.

    Kitty karate I got exactly the same box as you. Like you said, It's ok but not brilliant.

    Has anyone got any SoukSouk codes. I cancelled whilst making some cutbacks, but I've just received this months.and it's fab!

    Faith in Nature Shower Gel & Bath Foam RRP £5.45 (full size) -Smells lovely, although perhaps would have picked a different scent, I love receiving bath stuff in my boxes
    Eve of St Agnes Refining Bamboo Exfoliating Polish 15ml (RRP £8)
    Eve of St Agnes Hydrating Facial Silk 15ml (RRP £12)
    Barefaced Natural Mineral Shadow in Graphite 1.5g (RRP £8) - Gorgeous colour, love it!
    Moa The Green Balm (RRP £4.99) - Always wanted to try this

    It is a little dearer than other boxes, but wonderful organic, and natural products this month. :T
