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.

I got this email on Sunday. like....spoilers have been out since January....we know this is your fault Boxy. I've been with them for 2+ years, get it together!

Bahaha @Lazybeautybeast I also got this email and I sure hope that’s the case!

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

@Lazybeautybeast yeah I’ve heard they really messed up! I’m hoping for the lighter one as well - luckily there seems to be a lot of trade threads popping up on Instagram and Facebooks but the whole thing is pretty unacceptable. 

 

 And their response as usual is horrible - they are just basically like oh it’s a sub sometimes you don’t get what you want - but  NO don’t say you’ll use our profiles if you don’t intend too. Other subscriptions manage to customize and use profiles, they can’t promise to use them if they aren’t going to

 

i haven’t received a label yet either sounds like just luxe went out so fwr

@Kim888 I'm not sure why some people get their boxes so early. I've seen both regular and luxe that have already been received but also people still waiting on both. My label is usually created the 6th-8th each month and I have it around the 15th-ish. My Dec luxe did come earlier but this one didn't.

my luck I'll get the darker version 🤨

Just thought I would mention this here cause it's super helpful! Now on ipsy, if you look at your glam bag items it includes your items but also includes your addons with lil badges on them! Cute and finally! I would forget what i got!

That is a great add on feature @sonnydee. Thanks for letting us know.

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

How did I not see this? Thank you!! I was so pleased to get a HUDA palette for 12! Can’t wait to get it

@sonnydee ~ Thanks for sharing this! I noticed this too this morning and was wondering if anyone else could see theirs. I like that they added this, it is super helpful! I wonder if we'll be able to review our add-ons now or in the future for points? That'd be neat 😃

Re: @sonnydee ~ Thanks for sharing this! I noticed this too t...

They have it now that we can review our addons @KemoLove !😍😍😍😍

That would be really cool. There system is so slow at earning points @KemoLove 

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

Woo hoo! Went to check it out and it looks like I got the Huda Mauve eyeshadow palette in my glam bag plus (already own it but was thinking about buying a backup). I really hope that reveal is correct. Thanks for the tip @sonnydee this helps to remind me of what I picked out when I was half awake that day :P.

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

Exactly! @niki172 🧟‍♀️😂 I hope you  

get your backup!

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

Thanks @sonnydee  - I can't remember if my shown box offerings were correct last time color wise or not. I remember thinking I was getting a nude lippie, but got the red one instead. With that said I think I remember knowing that before I got my box so here's hoping the reveal is correct :).

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

I think, on the spoilers, they had what shade you were getting-im getting the ciate lippie & they only had one shade listed not 'one of the three' & they had where I could buy the other 2 shades. So if you remember that...but then ipsy glam plus maybe different. @niki172

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

@sonnydee Ipsy offered me the choice to add on either the smokey or coral palette, and I remember thinking "don't do it you'll wind up with 2 of the same color." So hopefully that's the case here as well!

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

Ladies ! Hello, 

I love this thread. Can anyone suggest a good box for makeup besides boxy? Something that would be full size items.

 

Ty xo

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

@luvgloss13 Ipsy Plus also offers full sized products, but you have to subscribe to regular Ipsy first and then upgrade - not sure how long it takes.

 

I also get a lot of quarterly lifestyle boxes (Popsugar Must Have, Fab Fit Fun and Box of Style) that include full sized beauty products along with jewelry and other accessories.  LMK if you need any referral links! ❤️

@luvgloss13 ~ You can check out all of those on the mysubscriptionaddiction website for in depth looks at each service's most recent and past boxes! Or just stay tuned here as we love sharing our subs. I'm getting all mine together for some photo opps as I type this, ha ha. Feel free to ask any and all questions!

@KemoLove 

 

TY! I am checking out the site, so many many boxes :O!   I want the cat box now hahah! 

You listed some amazing ones. I already do ipsy and boxy. I am so trying to get in on the ipsy glam plus deals! 🙂 I emailed them and asked the if I were on the waitlist and they said no , I was on the waitlist for the waitlist. LOL

Re: @luvgloss13 ~ You can check out all of those on the mysub...

Yes @luvgloss13 MySubscriptionAddiction is definitely the place to go to see what subscriptions are out there!
