I picked one up. I'm not super jazzed about it but I had $30 worth of points on my 2nd account that I was trying to get rid of, plus used the WELCOMEOFFER20 code so the total with shipping was $10.20. Not bad for the price of a regular Birchbox!

Anybody else order this?

 
I feel the same way. My way of rationalizing is that I used points and a discount code but I REALLY need not to order the next one! LOL

 
I picked it up -- I've been wanting to try the Alima lip tins and love W3ll people. I was also happy the other products were form new-to-me brands. I've been looking for a good natural nail polish remover, so I'm looking forward to trying it! I'll probably sell the Jurlique on ebay... I likethe products but they aren't trule cruelty free, so I am avoiding them for now.

 
I will probably buy it if it is still available when the mystery packs are back in stock.

I am most interested in the nail polish remover, shaving foam, Alima stick, and tea.  The other items are okay...not very excited about the eyeliner or the bag.

 
Nothing in it has me super excited, and so far I haven't been a fan of Jurlique. I also don't care for the FEED bag, it's just not my style. Pretty much the only things I would be interested in is the lip tint, nail polish remover and teas, certainly not worth spending my points on for 3 items. This is certainly very different than the last LE box. Will they do another for Mother's Day or is this it?

 
I'd probably use most of the stuff but I'm not really excited about it, so I think I'll pass. A little disappointing.

 
I kind of want it. I've never gotten a limited edition box and I have enough points to cover it, plus I'd probably buy some other thing $20 or less to bump it up to over $50 for free shipping. The overall theme/goal of the bag (fewer chemicals, etc) fits with my routine pretty well and I think I'd be happier spending my points on a LE box rather than one or two more expensive items. But I don't like the bag at all, I really don't "need" another black eyeliner, and the Jurlique isn't sounding so great. At this point, I guess I'll be waiting for the next one :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Yeah, it's kind of meh for me too.  I will probably get the full size of that nail polish remover on it's own though.  ($12)  I'm hoping for an awesome mother's day box!  

 
I'm skipping this one. I purchased the Snow Day one, and it was a great value.  But here I don't need/want the FEED bag, don't need/want yet another eyeliner. Don't need shaving cream.

I'm interested in the charcoal cleanser and the tea, but I'd rather just buy them on their own.

 
So I got this box today, and I love it! The real standout for me is the lip balm. It has an amazing flavor and wears like a light lipstick. Looks great. Totally love this product! Also really like the bag. Excited to try the other items!

So happy to hear that, I ordered it by itself. It was one of the only things that had me excited and certainly not worth buying the whole box for. I can't wait for it to arrive now! Sent from my SCH-S968C using Tapatalk

Does it smell like cocoa butter to you? I can't quite place the scent but it smells good. I love the bag too and the Jurlique, it works great with my skin.
 
I got my LE box today.  I am super happy with everything in it.  Well, except the eyeliner.  More black eyeliner?

I wish the lip balm tasted like chocolate, that's what it smells like to me. Yum!  Not that it tastes bad now, I just want pretty much everything to taste like chocolate.

It does smell kind of like cocoa butter! Whatever it is, I love it.
 
So, th Alima lip balm & the full size of the nail polish remover arrived yesterday. Unfortunately the lip balm has a huge chunk missing and 1/4 of the bottle of the remover spilled! Ugh! Sent from my SCH-S968C using Tapatalk

 
i got the box yesterday. i'm in love with the feed bag and it's my holy grail makeup bag now. i also enjoy the tea and i will get a full size whenever i run out of the 3029394 teas i currently have in my pantry, lol. i can't decide if i want to keep or swap the black w3ll people eyeliner though so it's just going to sit in my box for now.

 
I got it too - I love Birchbox's LE boxes - this one was especially done well. 

I really love the shaving foam - great for the more sensitive areas, the nail polish - it doesn't remove glitter that well, but it really conditions my nails!  I use the harsher nailpolish remover to remove the glitter, then I run a cotton ball with this stuff over my nail, just to condition it.  I love the charcoal cleanser as well.  The jurlique went on ebay  - I do not care for jurlique - it is the scent - it is so off putting to me.

The black eyeliner - I really don't like to get them in pencil form, but this  one is so nice and goes on without tugging.  Very smooth.  And the lip tint - I thought it would have more tint to it since it is called rhubarb (I was thinking of a brighter berry), but it s a nice peachy-pink-nude and I love the smell of it!!  Very hydrating and moisturizing.

And the feed bag - how cute it that???? I love the homespun feel to it with its burlap bag, the bright blue yarn tassels and the pop of coral in the zipper!  Just so nice - and I love that the purchase of this box will buy 10 meals...

I will purchase the nailpolish and foam again.

great box - and I hope BB does so more of these eco-friendly boxes.  I really think they did a great job with this one.
