The bobbi pins remind me of the tooth pick holder and any one who gets other subs probably has at least 3 other fan brushes. I’m grateful my sub was a one year at a sale price so it’s only costing $8.50.

I like this box. BB5 is always unpredictable. If you see dr. brant in one box, it is 99.9% will show up in other boxes. BB5 does not follow this trend, it is always a true surprise. I really like this box.

Depending on the shade of blush, I’ll use every single item! I’ve seen some DIYs about painting bobby pins with nail polish, so I will try that. I’ve been getting BB5 since November, and I love it.

I think it’s fun and unique. I pay for three months at a time for $30, so I feel the value is there. I love getting packages!!!

I pay a little more than that because I live in Texas so I pay taxes.And I agree that bb5 has always been original and doesn’t follow all the other box trends,that said they’ve always had a little sparkle or shimmer in their boxes and I miss that in Mays box

Not sure how I feel about this months box! I needed the eyelash curler so I’ll use it.If the blush is a color that works for me I’ll be happy about that that.I love mask but I have thirty or so .Ill try the fan brush with my highlighters but I already own five but…. it might be great.Bobbi pins hmmmmm I can’t work up some excitement over them .So as a whole I’m not excited over this months box but I will use or give away all the items.The last couple of months have just been ok boxes which makes me sad because this is a small company out of Austin Texas and I really want to love them ,so step it up bb5

I agree, with the exception of the “lip” box, this is my least favorite so far 🙁 Last month my box got stolen from me, my 15 year old haha, I guess she will be stealing this one as well…actually she doesn’t have to steal it, I really don’t care for it. She’s most excited about the fan brush.
