And while her fashion isn't generally something I could pull off, I think it is fun and works for her. While I agree that the curated boxes aren't often too indicative of the curators, I'm still really interested to see what she comes up with. :)

I think it was the denim over-alls and heel combination that got me lol.

I also don't like her messy hair but I guess that's her style.

I checked and I also have tracking information, however when checked it just states that electronic shipping info was received but there is no ship date yet, so I am assuming it hasn't been actually shipped. Boo

Yeah, on Facebook they keep saying they haven't shipped out yet, but if you ordered before December 9th you'll receive it by Christmas.

Same here! I assume that means our boxes finally left the warehouse?

Should be interesting since it takes 2 full weeks to go from the east coast to the west coast. I'll be surprised if I get the normal and gift box before Christmas.

They'd have a major problem on their hands if all the gift boxes didn't make it out by Christmas. Wow, 2 weeks!!! I thought 1 week for Beauty Army was a long time!

Have fun!  I hope it is filled with lots of awesomeness!  I just got an e-mail from them saying this is going on for three days, and it looks so fun!

 

Also, please give 'em heck from all of us.

Hope you see this but ask them what's going on with their customer service lately and what is the best way for a customer to get in contact with them.

The man repeller girl really reminds me of someone from birchbox. I don't know her name but when I see the man repeller pics I immediately think birchbox.

Has anyone received the Skin & Co sample set from last month? I placed my order almost as soon as someone had posted the link here, but after the order confirmation saying we'd get a shipping notice, I have heard absolutely nothing from them.

To me, she just looks like someone with minor flaws just like the rest of us. To be honest, I'd rather take advice or recommendations from someone that seems real, and deals with the same skin/hair/beauty issues as I do, than someone who looks like a plastic doll or something. Because if something helps them, then maybe it will help me...whereas it's kind of hard to take someone seriously if they look like a wax doll, or you never see them without 50 layers of makeup...so who knows what their actual skin looks like. I don't think a person has to be perfect to have something to offer when it comes to beauty advice/product recommendations.

I agree. I think a lot of us aren't able to dedicate the time and/ or money for a super elaborate daily beauty routine. I know I am ALWAYS forgetting to put on some cream or elixer for my skin. I actually don't know why i got Lashem because I will never probably use it consecutively to see results. I think a box curiated by someone kinda low key might be an interesting change of pace!

I guess I don't know what "bags" are because I don't see any on her. Not enough to use it against her. And it looks like she's just smiling. I don't see anything wrong with we skin and the "I just rolled out of bed" look is totally in now adays.

I don't like the angle of that pic. I think it's unflattering for anyone to have that much of a sideways photo taken.

that girl looks totally fine to me, and I do agree on not having a perfect looking barbie doll picking products, a more real person would be much better and I hope the products are awesome for the girls that will get the box :) I won't cuz I'm only getting december, but gl to the ones that will :D
