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.

[l8totheparty]

I would be so sad if that happened @lmaster 

[lmaster]

And in pain @l8totheparty I little pieces of glass went all over my floor 🤪

[jen81]

@lmaster Oh No! That’s awful I hope they replace it. 

[lmaster]

Both my FFF (plus add-ons) and BoxyLuxe (plus the two dose of color from the charm room) arrived today! I'm a little overwhelmed by all my new goodies! Overall is was a great month. I might end up passing along the rosewater face mist to a friend because it's not my jam. I'm excited to try everything out! All the products except two of my FFF add-ons I've never tried before.

[Marrrryyyyy]

@Lazybeautybeast how much a month is it for boxyluxe? boxycharm? looks like an awesome box

[Lazybeautybeast]

@Marrrryyyyy Boxycharm is $21 a month (plus tax in some states and shipping if you are outside the US) for 4 to 5 full size products. If you upgrade to BoxyLuxe it comes every 3 months and it is an additional $28.99 (so that month is $49.99). I have loved Boxycharm! Its a great way to build your collection and try new things. Some months are better than others but I have been subscribed to it for almost 2 years and I added BoxyLuxe in December. If you are interested in subscribing, I can send you a referral code and you can receive a full size Becca under eye primer for free with your first box.

[faeriegirl]

Those boxes look great @Lazybeautybeast! Enjoy all your goodies😊

June Factory 7 Luxe (sheet masks only) - love the stickers they include once in awhile!

I'm pretty excited about the Betterskin, I've tried one of their masks before (a bio-cellulose detox) that was amazing. Also interested in the CLIV Ginseng one - I've been kinda loving that scent lately.

[faeriegirl]

Those masks look great @eshoe 😊

[eshoe]

I am very happy with this month, @faeriegirl!

[Kim888]

Fun @eshoe -excited to see another meg mask in there!
