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.

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

I'm really happy about it! Ever since people started complaining about how the product selection did not seem tailored to each individual, ipsy has really listened and stepped up their game! Every time I review my products, my bags get better and better! 🙂 Yay! @Tamara76

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

I wonder if that is the same highlighter that is in the August Play! Boxes, @SchylarR. It looks nice on you😊

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

Ha!!! So, once you mentioned it, I looked it up out of curiosity and it IS the same highlighter!!! Nice catch I totally wouldn't have noticed that! 🙂

 

And dawh shucks... thaaaanks! 🙂 @eshoe

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

Yeah, I have non-buyer’s remorse that I missed out on last month so I signed up for August. I’m getting a different box though-was hoping for the Nars primer but oh well! 

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

This was the worst Boxycharm box I've gotten.  I received the Smashbox lipstick in "Spectacle" and the Bang Beauty eyeliner in Chocolate, neither which I can use.  Does anyone want to trade?  I haven't used either, but it looked like the eyeliner had a piece of dust in it so it's a little smudged from me trying to take that out, but it's unused other than that.  Also, the color is warmer than it appears in this photo, as is the lipstick.

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

This was my very first boxy! I was uber sad after finally signing up! For months I’ve been seeing everyone’s amazing boxes and then THIS lol! Just my luck! I would like to personally apologize to all subscribers! It’s all my fault hahaha!

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

@Ispend2much6 I wasn't thrilled with my Boxycharm this month either 😞 I hope we both get better boxes next month! Heart

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

@Mcakes  Oh, no!  I don't like to hear that.  😞

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

Oh no!!!!  So sorry it didn't work out for you, babe! Hope you can find someone to trade with! 😞   @Ispend2much6

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

@Tamara76  Thanks dear!  It happens every once in awhile.

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

I received the Smashbox liquid lipstick in Psychic Medium, which is a dark brown color. I'm not sure if that's more your preferred color, but if so I'd be happy to trade lipsticks!

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

@Annalily11  Thanks so much, but Psychic Medium will make me look like I belong in a morgue. 🙂

 

I'm sorry you didn't like your box!!! 😣 That always suck...

I'm sorry you didn't like your box!!! 😣 That always sucks. I hope you find someone to trade with and get some stuff you like better!!! ❤ (I don't have a subscription or I would totally be open) @Ispend2much6

Re: I'm sorry you didn't like your box!!! 😣 That always suck...

@SchylarR  Thanks sweetie!  I've more than gotten my money's worth from this subscription, but I went ahead and canceled.  I need to concentrate on Fab Fit Fun and their add-ons. 😉

New Boxycharm September spoiler Credit to MSA. Each charmer will get a Laura Geller Baked Blush n Brighten OR a Girlactik Skin Glow Duo.

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

Oh my gosh! That is a great spoiler. I loathed my last box. The only nice item was the eye patches. I almost cancelled and then it said there was a pretty vulgar palette next month so I was like meh, I’ll give it one more month. And now seeing the potential for a Laura Geller blush! I’m a huge fan of her line. I just ordered a blush and highlight palette off Ulta of hers and am anxiously awaiting its arrival.
