I was #27. Got two boxes for a total of $105.73
I really dug the summer box and I've used and finished most of the items. It was definitely worth every penny.

 
This was my first time going for an Allure box and I was refreshing like mad! I think I started filing in info at 1 minute til on my ipad. I was order #127. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I ordered right at 12:01 and I was still number like 727 or something like that...you guys are crazy! lol :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Can't wait to get it...this is the first one I've gotten! The last few, I wanted and then forgot about until it was too late!

Me too! Can't wait to see everyone's pictures. One of these days I'll order an Allure box...that's my incentive for whittling my collection, anyway.

I bought two boxes and was surprised they weren't already sold out in the first 6 minutes. I won't advertise but I'm considering putting up the extra one (or both) on sale if I start to regret my purchase. It might be wiser for me to redistribute that money towards my education... lol.

The skin-care/ hair products are reeling me in, but I'm sufficiently happy with the other products. Decisions, decisions..

 
I'm going to attempt to sell my second box since the person I ordered for conveniently decided she didn't want it minutes after I ordered. I wonder if I could cram it all into a large flat rate box....

I think that's absolutely not okay. If she asked you to get it for her then changed her mind after you purchased (only because she requested, you didn't want two), then she should definitely pay you for it. And after I heard you had already ordered it, it would have been an enabler like "oh gosh, well, I guess I'm kinda destined for this one after all. I guess I just have to get it now. Oh, the horrors." I would never ever consider just not paying you for it. Bad friend behavior on her part!

Oh, that's terrible! Especially since it's kind of a pricey item. 

But seriously, I bet you'll have no problem finding someone to buy it from you. All the ladies on  here are so nice & just from reading this thread I see there are several who wanted boxes that didn't get them. Or maybe throw it up on ebay!

 Good luck!

I may be interested!! I missed out since I'm on vacation and didn't wake up in time from the time difference LOL =(

If no one here wants it, I'm sure you can sell it on EBay and not be out any money. There are already some on EBay :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> but hopefully one of the lucky girls here will benefit from your friend's inconsiderate behavior!

And if no one here, you could offer it up in the Allure Facebook page. There were many disappointed women on there that didn't get a box. I'm sure one of them would be happy to buy it.
 
Thanks for all the suggestions, ladies! If anyone is interested, PM me. I'm not going to actively try and unload it until I have it in hand. That's what I get for trying to be nice!! :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I think it's totally bad juju on her part. It's one thing to have buyer's remorse when you're the purchaser, but not when you ask someone else to buy it for you. A verbal agreement should have just as equal weight as signing a contract, but I do have to admit it'd be difficult to monitor that. Regardless, it's not like this is $5. It's $50... for most people, that's still a lot of money.

Well you will be making someone ELSE very very happy!

So that's double good karma for you!!!

 
What are you all most excited to try out in your Allure box?
The Pixi eye brightener and all of the hair conditioning stuff. I need to figure out how to layer all of the oils and conditioning sprays to tame this growing mess. The last time my hair was this long (in 1998) it was straight and pretty much volumeless despite the thickness. I didn't use conditioner because all it did was weigh my hair down. Now it's developing more wave and volume than I know what to do with, and it seems to love all conditioners.

I'm really looking forward to the eye brightener as well. What changed your hair? Did you have a kid? My coworker used to have straight hair until she had her daughter. It's super curly now. She refers to it as her "muff".

I permed/bleached/dyed my hair from 1984 until 2008, I kept it in a pixie from 1998 until last fall-ish, and I am now 41, which I have been told is right around when hair can change straightness/curliness and texture. I haven't had long-ish chemically untreated hair since I was 12, and so it's all a brand new adventure.
