I love that lip crayon! I got the purple one

Snap, me too. Also the lip balm whatsit from the last BB, the packaging is really cute.

I also like the MeMeMe stain from the last YMB, it's basically a cheaper alternative to Benetint.

I succumbed last week and signed up to GB for 3 months to take advantage of the free extra box. £38 for 4 boxes, including p&p. Two arrived today, the pop art one and a box I hadn't had before. When I looked it up, it's from July 2013. Both good value boxes, just surprised it was such an old one.

Had delivery of two Memeboxes today;

My cute wishlist 3 - had a doll theme rather than out and out cute. 6 products including lip balm, sunscreen (in autumn!?) and sugar lip scrub. A lot of folk thinking the sunscreen looks a bit scary but think my daughter will love it (she's 4) so if it means she'll let me put it on when the summer comes - result as has a high SFP!

Halloween - box was MUCH smaller than regular boxes and was disappointed with contents. Yes there is 6 of them too but would never wear the fake eyelashes (I have daisy eyelashes as it is) and the other items look small. will use the white cream as daughter going as a zombie pirate to her nursery Halloween party so will come in handy! There's temp tattoo's as well but she also got a set in her Nerd Block Jnr this month so will probably use those instead as aimed at kids and look more kid friendly (cute spider web).

My CutiePieMarzia shipped earlier this week so i'm hoping it will arrive this week sometime! I see a 3rd one has been issued already but I'm not feeling as much love for it.

Anyone still getting LMB? They've barely added anything new to the boutique all month. Glad I cancelled!

i was tempted by the 3rd CutiePieMarzia but think its sold out now (possibly will restock?)

I've still got LMB. When they changed to the new system I still had 9 months left (2 months were for refferals) but my subscription details werent showing, so I complained ALOT. When they finally fixed it, it showed I had 12 months again, so now I'm down to 10 month remaining instead of 7, cant argue with that haha.

This month I got Swedish Spa Shower Mousse, P&R Foaming Treatment Mask, Malin+Goetz Moisturiser & Cleanser. Finally got an extra credit (due before the change) so also got S5 Renew Serum, and got a bonus product Weleda Calendula Massage Oil!

I'm happy this month but worried that they still haven't updated the website and there is next to nothing I want now.

LMB seems a bit random, there are a couple of things that I wouldn't mind ordering but I keep thinking what if they bring more things in a couple of days?

I bet CutiePieMarzia will be restocked. They still have her second box! The third one is super sweet! Not for me, but it is very cute.

I hope that this week I will receive my luckybox 10, blackheads no more and an order I placed in the shop!

Pink Parcel will launch the new webpage (and will have towels) on Monday!!!

Birchbox code for new subscribers, free shipping on first box, use code: FBOCTSHIP valid for October.

I highly doubt it TBH. I've been watching the site all month to see if anything went on of interest but other than a couple of lippies and a few new shades of nail polish the lineup hasn't changed from September. Nothing really interests me - I've seen all the brands and / or products before. I don't really get their concept anymore, even with a "build your own box" sort of thing subscribers and regular customers are going to want to see more new products. How many months before people say "hang on, I've seen all these products before". It just looks really lazy on LMBs behalf. Other beauty box brands at least curate a box each month and work on getting new brands on board.

You've done well! Hopefully they'll get some new stuff in. ATM it looks like stuff is selling out but not getting replaced as rapidly. Maybe they'll update the site in November for the new month.

According to You tube reveal, CutiepieMarzia said she has another box being released next month (though Memebox said this was her last collaboration box) so wonder if they told her! The new one isn't bad but nothing I really want so will pass as got the Dessert Box, My cute wishlist 4, My Petite Treasures and My lovely boutique on order already so should have a cute overload anyway!!

Nerd Block Jnr October girls had a Funko Hello Kitty Halloween collectible. Daughter got the Mummy one. Also some face tattoos for Halloween, a how to train your dragon comic and a disney lanyard with one metal badge. Not bad this month.

My Memebox All About Lips came the other day. The unboxing is up on my blog. I was really impressed and will definitely be buying more makeup based Memeboxes in future (i'm usually more a skincare sort of girl)! Can wait for my colour boxes to arrive now!
