May 2012 Birchbox. ThePeridotCricket. Gossip Girl Box. Chic Sunday Brunch. Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm SPF 25+

Here's my evaluation for Birchbox on the Dr. Jart+ BB Cream that came in my May 2012 Birchbox. Very Disappointed.

I believe the bottle says 0.06oz for the sample. That is very small. The container looks like it could hold 0.25oz. A lot of people were complaining theirs was empty, and I could not squeeze anything out of my sample, either, but the girl at Work whom I gave last month's perfume sample to managed to squeeze half a pea-sized dollop out of the BB Cream container, so I can't legitimately say it's empty. It looks like a concealer to me and I do believe Birchbox changed the product description after the boxes were shipped because when I e-mailed Birchbox to says this was a tinted concealer, I had taken those words right from the description that popped up when I clicked the picture of the BB Cream on my Box Page. I did try the product on one of my pimples, but it is too light for my skin tone, eventhough I am caucasian and do not have a tan yet this year. It didn't work to conceal the pimple, unless you count making it lighter than the rest of my skin. I did not like it.

I had seen on the MakeUpTalk forum for May's Birchbox that a lot of people were actually getting an empty sample of this product, so when I got my box I knew it would not be that great. I really do like the advance warning. I had also seen a few box openings on YouTube by that time. People were opening their boxes and finding the Dr Jart+ empty. I feel really bead for everyone who got this sample in their May 2012 Birchbox.

Have Fun, Everybody, and Blessed Be. Thanks for Reading.
