Mine is STILL in "pack" mode. They must really be packing those 5 items in a box with reflection and intent.
I think it should be fine. I've used sugar scrubs on my face many times without any problems. I think it's really just about the individual ingredients in the scrub and making sure you are not sensitive to any of those. I do wish the product label lists each individual ingredient though!Got mine today! I got the lipstick/scrub combo. My lipstick is pink, a color I don't wear often, but it is REALLY pretty. I got the cranberry scrub. I prefer scrubs for my face, but have never used a sugar scrub on my face. So are they okay/safe to use on the face? I have pretty tolerant skin.
Ooh! So, I got impatiently curious and googled the whole sugar scrub on the face thing and ended up on the FAQ page of the exact brand that we got in the boxes. They don't necessarily recommend their body scrubs to be used on the face because the granules are more coarse and their face scrubs have different ingredients more aimed toward the use on your face. So, while I am going to ignore their advice against it, that is what they recommend.I think it should be fine. I've used sugar scrubs on my face many times without any problems.

You're not the only one!! I prefer the crazy colors. Although, I'm the type to wear black or turquoise or whatever I can get my hands on that isn't considered normal. But I also like beige/nudes. I'm just not a pink/orange/coral person.I got the lipstick color in "First Class," and although I'm glad that for once, Glossybox didn't send me a hideous beige/brown shade, I wish they had sent me one of the crazy purple shades Gold Label lipsticks has. I think I'm one of the few subscribers who actually wants those colors!
I received shipping notice 2 days ago now and my box is scheduled to arrive on the 24th. This is in Texas. It's usually not this late for me though, so I don't know what's going on.I still don't have any shipping notification, and still in "pack mode.". Is this true for anyone else here? I'm becoming the teensiest bit nervous.
I know Glossy tends to be a bit of a sluggish delivery, but it seems like most folks have already received boxes, or at least shipping notice.
I know everything is behind or slow for me too because of the holidays. My UPS guy even worked overtime yesterday (Sunday) making deliveries because they are so backed up.I'm getting very frustrated with my post office. My little lace box that was supposed to be delivered Friday, it just got to my town today. My Glossybox is supposed to be delivered today, but it hasn't been scanned since the 16th in IN.
I saw the UPS truck driving around yesterday too. I don't think I've ever seen the UPS truck driving around on a Sunday. I heard on the news that Fedex is having a record breaking amount of deliveries this year so I would assume UPS would have the same if not more. I see the UPS truck around more than I see the Fedex truck.I know everything is behind or slow for me too because of the holidays.

I'm sorry to hear that. You would expect them to have a pretty good idea of knowing ahead of time how much to order from their vendors by now.My December box has been in “pack” mode since December 2, I sent a message inquiring as to its status. Here was the response:
"Hi _____,
Thanks for writing in!
Unfortunately, it seems this edition is on back-order, as our warehouse is waiting on stock replenishment due to holiday delays from our vendors. Sadly, we do not have a time frame yet of when this will be completed.
Do you wish to wait for the December box or would you prefer a refund for this order?"
Meanwhile, people who just signed up in December have gotten their December boxes. I don't love the variations with this sub, but what really gets me is having to worry every month if I'll actually get the box I paid for, or if horseshit like the above will happen. This is what led me to quit back in April, and I'm wishing I hadn't resubbed. Gilt City deal or no, the anxiety about actually getting the box with this sub is not worth it.
