Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Hi All! 

 

We are long overdue for an updated Subscription Sharing thread!  Whether it's BoxyCharm, Ipsy, or PopSugar we want to hear (and see) all about what you are subscribed to.

Interested in trading with other users?  Here are some things you need to know from @SydBristow and her trade threads:

 

Spoiler

IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with Sephora's terms of use, items cannot be listed "for sale" or even for trade for Sephora or other gift cards. Please do not list "prices" either (which implies selling), but you can list approximate trade value.


Because a number of fake items have been sent in trades, it is strongly advised you provide photos of your higher-end items, including the labeling (you may be asked for it anyway) and list WHERE you purchased the item from. Fakes are readily available from less reputable sellers and can contain toxins! It is important to everyone to know where their cosmetics come from.

Please also be aware that some makeup products cannot be sanitized - please use caution in your trades. When in doubt, ask the community, it's a great resource! Used items you may wish to avoid are mascara, liquid eyeliner, lip glosses, and cream products.

Acquiring Items
Please use discretion with whom you enter into trades with. There is a summarized list of trusted traders here: http://community.sephora.com/t5/Off-Topic/List-of-Successful-Traders-January-2015/td-p/1852954 Protect yourself in your trades, ask questions (such as where an item was purchased), ask for additional photos (to show level of usage and/or labeling to prove authenticity).
If you donโ€™t feel 100% comfortable doing a trade because someone is new, you can request they send their items first.

Communication
Please use the private message system on Beauty Talk and/or tag the user you are trying to get in touch with. Communication is key! You can tell a lot about a trade by how the communication goes. If you will be unavailable for any periods of time, please be up front, and if there are any issues with shipping please be up front about that as well.


Delivery
Having tracking and insurance on shipments goes a long way to figuring out where an item might be. The USPS puts anticipated delivery dates and tracking numbers right on the receipt. If there is any issue with an item you have sent out, please follow up with the carrier.

LE Glossybox Spoiler 3Nest CandleNest Candle

 

 

Do any of you currently subscribe to Glossybox? I'm tempted to get this but the reviews I've seen have me second guessing... 

 

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

@ElleElleG, I had it for a little over a year.  Great presentation & an interesting array of products.  Ultimately I canceled because it was a tad bit pricey and some of the product choices were not items Iโ€™d use. 

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Thanks for sharing @ZombieMetroAnt @moxiepancakes

 

Did either of you ever have any issues with shipping, customer service, etc? 

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Thankfully, the box always arrived in a timely manner and none of the items were ever missing or damaged @ElleElleG.  Have heard mixed reviews on their C.S. but I've never personally contacted them. 

 

I've read on MSA that Gilt City will offer a 6-mon sub for $15 a box (instead of $21).  If I see that offer, I'll make sure to tag you, in case you're considering it. Heart

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Not needing to contact their CS is always a good thing.

 

Thanks @ZombieMetroAnt. At this point I'm only interested in snagging their LE Box ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

I did for a while... it was a let down. The overall values were great but the products were just not things I would use.

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Too cool!!  The Anna Faris book is on my list now!  Eek, that brush in your IPSY bag is so cute @Tamara76 Heart  Oh, you're gonna have so much fun with all these new goodies...

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Thank you!   I'm definitely happy with my November subs so far!  I think I've got 3 more on the way! โค๏ธ

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

@Tamara76 The chalk pencils and chalkboard paper look really neat! ๐Ÿ™‚ I think I would enjoy a subscription box full of art supplies, pens, etc.

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

@PrettyPaint Ohhhh - I bet there is a subscription for art supplies somewhere! And if there's not, you just came up with an awesome new business idea! ๐Ÿ˜‰ 

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

::swoon::  what an awesome box!boxy.JPG

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Beautiful!  That Winky Lux palette is just way too cute! โค๏ธ  

 

And the lipstick is definitely your color, girl! @ZombieMetroAnt

I wore all the products in mine box today except the lip...

I wore all the products in mine box today except the lip mask! I loved the lippie!

RE: I wore all the products in mine box today except the lip...

I feel like I had a hard time with the Lippie - it clung really badly to my lips maybe itโ€™s a sign I need to exfoliate or use the lip mask in there lol.

Re: RE: I wore all the products in mine box today except the lip...

Oh no, sorry to hear that @Kim888!  I wore it underneath MAC's Prime & Prep Lip Primer (that helps it stay put throughout the day) and it glided right on.  Maybe applying balm before hand so your lips are nice and lush...Heart 

Re: RE: I wore all the products in mine box today except the lip...

@ZombieMetroAnt Thanks for the tip Iโ€™ll definitely try that! The color is so perfect for this time of year I want to make it work ๐Ÿ™‚

Re: RE: I wore all the products in mine box today except the lip...

@Kim888, I know you can do it, girl!  And you would totally rock that shade!  Heart
