Blush Mystery Box October 2014

The video is now up! http://www.blush.com/

But before we go any further, I just noticed that we are getting only 5 samples this month. If I already didn't want to try the main spoiler brand, this month wold be a bust for me.

Our first spoiler is!  Whoop whoop!  I very much think this is full size!


And here is the link for the works if you want to know what is in the entire box!

I think I'm going to skip this month as well. I really, really don't need another eye cream or shampoo which is where the value of this box would come from... Sigh.

Yeah this will make the second box that I am getting for the sake of one product. But maybe I will like the other stuff.

Thanks for posting this!  I'm pleased enough. I could use everything and was just thinking I could use some new shampoo. 

Thanks for posting! Still undecided on this one. Think I will hold out and see what the next couple months bring!

I got notification that mine shipped out last night!

Whoa, do they always release the spoiler video and ship so close together? Mine shipped while I slept.

Wow they shipped quickly this month... I woke up to a shipping notice, didn't even get to see the spoilers ahead of time!  I think after this month I may skip out for a while... I really like their service, but I'm sub box poor and running out of places to stash my goodies.  Sadly, this month's Blush Mystery just doesn't blow me away.  I already dropped Glossy, still have SS and Boxy.  I may also skip out on SS for a while after this month, but I'm keeping my Boxycharm!  I think I may change it up and get some lifestyle boxes or clothing boxes for a few months instead!!  It's all in rotation!

Bummed about getting TWO shampoos.  I am up to my ears in dry shampoo that I will never use and I only use Wen anyway.  Hmph!  The eye cream and the blush in a suitable color for me would make it worth (I looked on the Cargo site and I do believe it's blush).  I have been considering parting ways with this sub but I think I may stick it out until the new year in case they do some fun boxes over the holidays.

I was going to go ahead and cancel while I was thinking about it and I can't seem to find how, there's no link or answers in the FAQs... Does anyone know how to go about cancelling?

I believe you have to call them. It would be so much easier if they just had a way to do it on their website, but I have never found a way to do that.

Thanks!  I called and cancelled, was a lot faster than I tought it would be!  Still getting this month's, but that's ok!

Did anyone realize that they are repeating the eye cream from the January 2014 Mystery Box?  I mean it hasn't even been a year and they are giving it out again?  I haven't even used the last one, why would I want another?  I think it's time to take a break from this box for a while. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Ohh.... I wasn't subscribed in January. So are they re-using old stock?

As much as I like Blush, I can't help but feel they shipped fast after a late reveal to coral you all in before you had a chance to cancel.

I don't know, but given that it was only 9 months ago, maybe.  This is the first repeat item that I have received since subbing last September.   The quality in the boxes have really declined in the past few months.

I still have a bunch of that eye cream from the earlier box.  I actually think it's a great eye cream and I'm happy to get another (though I'm seriously overwhelmed with eye creams right now, so it's not really something I would've bought on its own).  

Unless the Strivectin sample is *huge*, I don't see where we'll get the $100+ value?  

Probably full sized: 

Glytone = $30

Cargo = $36

Klorane = $15

The Batiste full size is only $7.99, and it appears we'll be getting a sample size. . .

That leaves Strivectin, that will need to be worth at least $20 to push the box over $100.  

I still think this box is a good value and I LOVE LOVE LOVE everything Klorane.  I have the date conditioner from a few months ago and it's amazing, plus it smells divine (it's actually something I would go out and purchase).  

However - I'm kinda subbed out and need to start cutting back.  I moved recently and was embarrassed by the # of beauty products I had (lots of them from Allure seasonal boxes).  Even though I donated a lot, I have an obscene amount of *stuff* and it's starting to accumulate again. Anyway, this will be my last month because aside from Popsugar, it's my most expensive subscription.  As part of my paring down, I've cancelled:  Glossybox, Allure, and Blush. On the fence about Ipsy. . .$10 is a cheap treat, but it still adds up to $120 a year that could go towards something really nice.

The Strivectin only needs to be .33 oz to be over $20. That stuff is $109 a tube! Don't they usually give out generous samples?

Remember when you would get a full sized Strivection from Beauty Fix?

I am stoked about this one. Can't get enough dry shampoo, especially Klorane!

My box didn't show up today and it usually arrives on a sat. Anyways, I sought out a review to see how much Strvectin we would get (.25 oz). Anyways, that Cargo blush in cable beach looks like a much better color than what was shown at the Deremstore. ARV $30 I think I am really going to like this!

Oh and that date lip gloss from last month is my newest addiction. So date shampoo should appeal to me.

I think between the Glytone, shampoo and Cargo blush this will be a good month for me.

And I have a trick that will tell us if that Glytone is expired. Companies can look the product up and give the manufacture and expiration date

My package is stuck in Kentucky and it's been there for three days... Seriously, Newgistics is so slow.
