Glossybox December 2012 - Page 10

« Back to Group Discussions

Guess I'm in the minority here, because I would rather take beauty advice from someone who already achieved flawless complexion, which is why my only beauty guru is my derm who has the most beautiful skin as a result of years of chemical peels and a strict skincare routine. When I saw her photo from I think 10 years ago I couldn't believe that's the same woman!

whomp whomp. cancelled. Its been $170 that I really don't think was worth it. I just got my October and Nov boxes last week. 

fail fail fail

Guess I'll save the money for May when I graduate and finally get to get a pomeranian puppy :D

I posted more details on this in another thread but suffice it to say I WILL NEVER go back to Glossybox no matter how much I like the items they send - which I DO. I've always said the items they send out are great products BUT considering items arrive damaged and getting a hold of someone is difficult and for some impossible I just can't justify spending $21 HOPING the items come intact and undamaged.

Am I expecting too much?

Hi guys, just wondering when I should expect to get charged for my January box? This is my first month with GlossyBox. I finally signed up because they were offering the 40% off discount for the December box, but I'll probably cancel after getting it unless it really wows me. I just want to make sure I cancel in time. Thanks! :-)

I already canceled. Just getting the 40 percent box. They have too many issues and From what I have seen they will be charging soon.

I'll going to cancel too - this will be my first box with the 40% off code. Have these shipped yet!? I haven't received a shipping email or anything

I do not think so. Mines says ship on the acct but does not have any shipping info.

Mine too. My order is complete but under shipping method it says no shipping info available. 

&& I just cancelled my account. The products seem great but not with all the hassle it seems to come with.

checked my tracking info and it shows expected delivery 12/20-12/21.  i then cancelled my account (again) because the site is still a mess and i still don't see value in it for me.

I haven't had any issues minus them charging me again for the discount box (which I just canceled the PayPal subscription and my SIL can get 2 boxes I guess) but seeing the issues makes me so worried that one day I will have a problem. It is so hard to unsubscribe though. I am hoping they turn a new leaf like MyGlam/Ipsy did.

It’s actually a fun cocktail ring! Giant green glass stone in antiqued gold setting.  Surprisingly cute. 

Comes in a velvet pouch...perfect for re-gifting.

 

I think you may be happy with this box...despite two of the samples being teeny tiny.

Love the nailpolish! It’s perfect!

Well you are lucky to still have the surprise on the way. :)

It's a happy box!

Let me know if you have any box questions.

I won't be back on here for a few hours though.

I recognized it's sister ring on the site.  You can google the name to see pictures of it.  "Madison Ave Ring" I wonder how many different ones they sent?

Wow the box sounds amazing, I'm glad I'll have two coming this way :)

omg that sounds amazing. I'm really happy I got a box! I really wanted that polish so I'm glad I didn't buy it ahead of time or else I'd be so annoyed right now lol. I got one for my sister too (but like, on behalf of my dad because he was like DON'T KNOW WHAT TO GET HER) so I'm glad it's nice. LOL it's going to look so nice compared to my Oct Ipsy which I got her and am giving on behalf of myself XD;; Definitely a "shinier" subscription. Ah well, my dad needs more bonus points with her.

I am excited about the ring especially since they are sending very different ones.  It's unexpected, for sure!  I think this should be a pretty good little extra gift for my mom too.  The only thing is, there's no way she'll wear that color Zoya.  I hope they send out color variants, but that may not be the case.  Although they are 2/2 on the same color, so it's not exactly a large sample to determine that information just yet.

Ahhh I can't wait for my box.

Newgistics is /extremely/ slow going from one coast to the other. And the tracking estimate for both says Dec. 21-27th, which means it'll likely show up right after Christmas. Hoping it errs on the early side of that window.
