Not impressed by the samples posted here, I doubt if I'll join, even if I manage to get the page to load. If this is an example of the way they run their business, they are as half-baked as GGG. Maybe I'll give Birchbox another try.

 
Finally complete my order and took screenshots of the 9 options they gave me.  I'll get them posted tonight, but right now I'm running out the door like I should have 5 after 3 lol.

 
After taking the survey, I got other products not listed in the beginning.

edit: I meant I only got a few different products.

I just got in from having to cave and get seen at the clinic. I was bummed I was going to miss the launch but from what I am seeing here, looks like I didn't miss much after all. Bummer. :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Definitely felt it was overhyped. I was underwhelmed with their choices.

I retook the survey, and one or two things changed to other stuff I didn't want lol. I officially give up. I plan to stalk the MAC site for Naturally to pop up.

Joico's Revitaluxe is a favorite of mine, but you can get the 1.7oz on Amazon for less than $6, with shipping. They sent the full-size in the Allure Beauty Box, which I *LOVED*, btw.

 
I'm surprised I didnt get the Joico K-PAK. I was unimpressed with the samples. I would have liked the Joico & Strivectin, but its not worth $12, IMO. The coverup has to be itty bitty, if the full size is 0.5oz and the sample is 0.1oz. For now I will keep my Birchbox, and I'm subbed for MyGlam for January, so we'll see whats in store! 

I'll keep a look out for unboxing videos, then decide if they open up again =)

 
I'm still on the fence about subscribing. I added more samples I found in my previous post.

 
I finally got through. I am actually pretty excited about mine. I am on a big exfoliating & brightening kick and several of my samples were geared towards that.

I have been subscribed to Birchbox for a year but I am thinking of cancelling now. I loved the December MyGlam bag and I found out about Beauty Army through this site, so THANKS!

I actually have that from a Birchbox (a month or two ago) and like it. Shame is a tiny sample.

 
I finally got through--not impressed with the selection, even though I re-did my profile a couple times. I finally found a selection I liked, and debated ordering, then decided it wasn't worth it.
