Yep! I also keep some of my old sample jars and wash them out for those purposes. Nice to be able to dump stuff out of the packets into jars and preseve them, so you can really try them past one or two uses.Originally Posted by zadidoll /img/forum/go_quote.gif

I always ask for samples at sephora, so I have a bunch of empties after a while. I bought some more off of ebay since I found so many uses for them! I use those to fill up my sample packets, and theyactually get used that way! I also like to use them for sticking things like tinted moisturizer or sunscreen for my face and then throwing them in a small zippy in my makeup bag. Or sometimes a friend asks to try something I have, like the one step bronze I got in june's box, I'll full one up and let her try some. As for the bb creams, I had 4 nearly empty tubes, and I took a bare minerals sample container and filled up. Even though the bb cream is too gray for me. lol

They have a wide selection of pots over at TKB trading. I love the little snap pots and they sell round labels to put on the top too.

I have noticed that they seem to empty out the waitlist when they do curated boxes, especially the _Gossip Girl_ boxes. I signed up on the waitlist under a few different email addresses and sent them referral invitations when they first announced the _GG_ boxes (I was specifically trying to avoid the welcome boxes) just to cover all of my bases, and I received signup notices within a day or two for each account via each method (so I ended up with at least two signup codes per email address -- one for the referral code and one for the regular waitlist -- since the system also went buggy and continued to send a signup codes multiple times). You might not get referral points, but you would at least get in.
One thing I've noticed: It looks like existing members can buy 3-, 6-, or 12-month gift subs (and you can pick when then first box ships up to three months in advance), and then I believe you automatically have the option to keep going after the gift sub runs out without having to do the waitlist thing again, so if you *really* wanted to get off the waitlist, that might be something to consider.

I thought it blended in quite nicely. I liked the texture of it. My skin is pretty low maintenance and I am olive toned though, so idk if that's at all helpful!

I'm not keen on the stacky ones like that; I bought a set of 30 (for beading) off of Amazon that work better for me, as they are smaller. To each her own, though, right?Originally Posted by Angelalh /img/forum/go_quote.gif

I have light skin and i can tell on me if i'm not careful of how much i apply. I also wasn't used to a mineral sunscreen prior to this, so that may have something to do with it. I do like that they have one that is matte - since that's the whole reason i HATED wearing sunscreen on my face! You can always email the co. and ask for samples, they were pretty quick getting them to me!

I noticed in the Birchbox new products the Lipstick Queen Liptropolis set. Does anyone have any experience the brand? I should be getting a promo code this month so I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on the brand. Would it be worth buying?

Usually, BB mails out by or around the 10th of each month. So the thread will be popping pretty soon with spoilers and comparisons on shipping notices! Welcome to the madness ladies! Lol...
