Glossybox - October 2012

« Back to Group Discussions

I bet some kind of face mask? And maybe a foot scrub. A rich moisturizer? Something soothing for the eyes? A bath soak?

I'm hoping for some great products again in October. I was REALLY impressed with my glossybox this month. The past 2 months have left me kind of blah with make up colors I would never use (brown lipstick on a 21 year old... no thank you) I hope they have some awesome sized products in October.

I would be super happy with any bath products. I'm kind of burnt out on skin care from all of these sub boxes. Maybe a nice bubble bath and lotion or some kind of scrub. :)

I saw that! At least we know the theme. I wonder what surprises await us this upcoming month! (Even though my September box have yet to arrive...)

I'd care about this IF I had received the September box I paid for..but as far as I'm concerned glossybox can suck it.

Nope, I've emailed twice, asked on twitter and I was just told to email there, when I said I'd already emailed they told me they'll answer me soon. I just want my money back at this point.

Give them a call. They never answered my emails. I finally got problem fixed when I called.

Maybe we are getting cotton rounds and turbie twists...? ;)

I'd be happy to receive a candle and a hand cream (I need a ton of them, never enough) ;-)

I'd be happy with a hand cream too! I'd be surprised if we got a candle, since GB so far hasn't really done the "lifestyle" item thing, but if we did get one, I would not complain!

I'd also love anything that smells like vanilla...

I was actually given two turbie twists for Christmas years ago. I don't use them every day, but I really like them for traveling! I usually use two towels when I shower -- one for wrapping up my wet hair, and one for my face/body. (I used to be really high maintenance and use a separate one for face, too!) It's small, too, not like a whole giant towel, so it fits easily into a suitcase or bag.

When we're in a hotel or at someone else's house for the night, it's nice to not have to ask for extra towels. I can use my turbie twist for my hair and just one towel (like a normal person apparently haha), but I still feel happy to have my hair up separately. It's pretty absorbent, too, and even better, it feels a lot lighter on my head (and pulls my hair less) than a big old bath towel. I have thin, longish hair; I bet those ladies blessed with thicker, longer hair would find the twist isn't big enough.

Omigod the site just scared the buhjeezus out of me... (turn your volume down...).

The turbie twist looks a bit... small? Lol My hair goes half way down my back when it's dry... I have really weird crazy curly hair that's also pretty thick... it's not that much of a blessing. It's frizzy and dry and hard to control!

Sorry she scared you! The website is SUPER annoying, isn't it? I should have warned you!

The twist has a "pocket" in the end where you're supposed to be able to collect the long ends before twisting... I used to have hair to the middle of my back and I found it worked well, but again, my hair is really thin. It does help my hair dry a bit faster; since I live in a very humid climate, that is certainly a benefit! :)

I used a turbie twist when I was on a cruise a couple of months ago and it was great, I have long hair (mid-lower back) which is kind of thick and as long as I make sure I get all of it in the pocket it works fine. It takes up less space and really easy to wear when you are getting things together since its so light.

I have long, very thick hair and I have no problem getting all in my Turbie.   Love it, it the best towel for your hair because it is microfiber so it absorbs moisture from your hair very quickly.

As always I can't wait for the new glossybox!!!!
 

Excited for October even though I didn't get (and won't be getting, according to CS) my September box.

Can I just say how shocked (in a good way) I am about their CS? I emailed them saying how much I love GB, but the site annoyed me sooooooo much!!! I said the stupid tab on the right hand side with the twitter, facebook, etc stuff kept hovering in the way of everything, and that I could click under it if I was trying to access tracking info on my phone!!!!

They just emailed back saying they removed the tab lolllll

I'm shocked they changed it because I said it was annoying.

Am I the only one that hasn't been able to access recent user posts on their facebook page?! I can't post or see other users post...

I never had surveys for the month. I tweeted them and was told to email, which I did, and still haven't heard anything. I also emailed them about something else last week and still haven't heard anything. Annoying.

I think a lot of people must have been complaining lately because I did so as well -- in *June*.  The word "infuriating" was involved.  They told me:

It didn't work.  

I hope we get some kind of foot masque!  I am trying to find some good products for treating dry, cracked feet!  If we get body and or face stuff I will be ok with that too but I would LOVE some foot stuff!

I agree! Especially with the colder winter months coming up, foot stuff would be great.

LoL well I wrote::

Hello,

I just wanted to say I love Glossybox! I like everything that comes in it! But I wish the site was better!!
There is a tab on the right hand side with FB, Pinterest, and Twitter buttons and it's always on top of stuff like links. Right now it's hovering all over your PR links. And when I try to access this site on the phone to track my package I can't because the tab is on top of the link it is covering. I wish it would recede or something... Is it my computer or a web design error? Please let me know!

And then two days later::

Dear Jane,

Thank you for your email. We have removed this tab from the right had side of the page. Please check out our site again.

Kind regards,

The GLOSSYBOX Team

So it made me feel like they were listening to me lolllll

I can't wait for my OCTOBER BOX!!!!! WHY NO HINTS GLOSSSY??? XD
