Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

[ElleElleG]

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.

Omg @ElleElleG really want to try that mask out!! Enjoy!

[ElleElleG]

Same @MackyDeanna , I don't think I've ever seen something labeled as a Vitamin C mask

[IndyQT317]

@ElleElleG Is that a new product from Farmacy? Let us know how you like it, if received.

[ElleElleG]

@IndyQT317 It looks new; scheduled to be in the July box

[SoraDixie]

Eeek I want this so bad!! But if I sign up now I get June’s which I don’t exactly need. Gah.

[Kim888]

boxycharm is deff trying to lure me back in...I am really interested in that mask. 

[ElleElleG]

Haha @Kim888 they want our money again!

They've sent me more emails since I canceled than they did while I was subscribed!  Each with an offer that I can capitalize on if only I resubscribe.

[Kim888]

@ElleElleG seriously - I’ve received like 15 emails from them in the last few weeks trying to lure me back

It’s here!!! Squeeeee!!!! Can’t wait to dig in! But seriously this palette is even more beautiful in real life! Colors are so amazingly pretty. I can’t wait to try them on!

[IndyQT317]

@KrishAtl Nice!

[Tamara76]

Yay!   O.k.  I need to go open my box now!  This is awesome, @KrishAtl! ❤️

[bakeamuffin]

I love what you got @KrishAtl! 😍 those brushes are so pretty and they look really soft and fluffy 👌🏻 Enjoy playing with all your new goodies 😄

[PrettyPaint]

Wow! @KrishAtl The palette is beautiful. Can’t wait for mine to arrive! 

[KrishAtl]

@PrettyPaint.  I can’t speak enough about how gorgeous these colors are in this palette!  I have been watching YouTube videos for the last couple of days of people trying them and doing looks with them and have been a bit intimidated as this is honestly my very first palette with “real colors”!!  I am a seriously browns and muted tones kinda girl! But wow, seeing this palette in real life is mind blowing!  The colors are just gorgeous!  I will be “baby steps” using it, but can’t wait to try some looks with it!

[PrettyPaint]

@KrishAtl How exciting! Some of the shades look unique to my collection, so I can’t wait for it to come so I can play! I can’t wait to hear what you think once you get a chance to try out some looks! 

[Lazybeautybeast]

😍 Awesome @KrishAtl! Mine won't be here until Thursday. 😔 I'm getting so impatient

[KrishAtl]

Fingers crossed it gets to you soon @Lazybeautybeast.  This is an awesome box!  Love everything about mine.  The palette is soooo amazing, and so happy with the eyelashes.  I was worried that they would be too long and “lashy” for me!  I only like a fuller look lash and not the drama ones!  These are perfect!  My cousins wedding is at the end of the month.  I am gonna rock this box!!!
