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 don’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.

Oh wow!!!! That’s a GREAT Ipsy bag!!!!!!

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

Did anyone else get an email from boxycharm about getting an additional item in their January box because they gave me the Vintage Cosmetics Illuminating Face Highlighter yet I have already received it in a previous box. I haven't received my December box yet so can't confirm if I did receive the highlighter again. Unfortunate because I haven't even tried the first one I received but hopefully they will live up to their claim of an additional item in my January box!

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

@lydiatong They noted somewhere they would be doing this.  Only people who receive the highlighter repeat will be getting the bonus item (if I understood them correctly).  Curious to see what it will be.

It would be great if that turns out to be true. One of my...

It would be great if that turns out to be true. One of my concerns about subscription boxes is getting the same thing over and over. Especially Boxycharm where it's a full size product.

Here's my Boxycharm!

Nice!   What do you think?   @mezzotown88

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

@Tamara76 I like everything 😃except the color correcting palette!😕

I think I’ll never use the color correcting palette🙁

Ugh! Mine was "delivered" yesterday to my apartment complex office but I didn't realize it until after the office closed. 😫 I was home all day waiting for it and they didn't even try to deliver it. It's so frustrating! Just a few more hours until I can go grab it.

Re: Ugh! Mine was "delivered" yesterday to my apartment compl...

@Lazybeautybeast ~ Awww, no fair! Sorry that happened. We have two regular post attendants that do all the deliveries in my area, l: one is sweet and amazing, and the other one is super lazy and a bit rude. The latter won't even attempt to deliver packages (or even logical letters! ) and just places a piece of paper in our box saying that delivery failed and it's at the office location. I've been standing outside and watched her do that, so irritating! So I understand ya, ha ha

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

Mine was supposed to arrive yesterday but then Fedex changed it to saturday - I feel like that happens to me a lot with Fexex/boxycharm it always ends up being like 3-4 days later than the normal projection 😕 

 

Oh well i'll have it in two days, i'm excited to see what i got 

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

@Kim888  I hate when that happens..... anyway are you going to post when you receive yours?

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

Yes i'll post! I have a feeling I am getting the third version based on what people are saying about weight but you never really know haha

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

Received this as well!  I'm tempted to open the concealer palette but the most I could possibly use is the orange shade.  This, along with the blush since I dont wear it, will likely go to a friend/her little sister.  Technically the value of the brush, mascara, and liquid lip surpass the price of the box but still meh about this one.

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

@mezzotown88 This is the same box I received. 🙂

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

@PrettyPaint Cool!! kinda bummed that I didn't get the bronzer palette boxycham said some of us will get. oh. well....not the end of the world.. maybe it's worth to try!

I'm kind of meh about the december boxycharm.. what do you think?

 

I can't wait to receive the Jan Box! (heard we will be getting 2 palettes/a face palette and an eyeshadow palette)

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

@mezzotown88 I didn’t keep up with all of the spoilers for the December box so I don’t know what all the options were. This isn’t my favorite box, although I am pretty excited about the lip product because I have been wanting to try pretty vulgar for a while. I did see the January eyeshadow palette spoiler...glam metals, I think. Do you know what the face palette is supposed to be? I haven’t heard anything about that!

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

@PrettyPaint I don't know yet I just know that we're going to get  a face palette and an eyeshadow palette. Usually face set contains blush /bronzer/highlighter...

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

@mezzotown88 Sounds like the January box  will be a good one hopefully!

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

@PrettyPaint yes! it will be a good box!

Seems like everyone is excited  about receiving the january box!
