Yeah, it makes me sad. I've been trying really hard to make a trade for that color, and no dice. It's a waste. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I don't think they'd consider getting a different color from anyone else to be the wrong item, unfortunately. Her box page doesn't show a particular color so I'd imagine they would say there wasn't a guaranteed color.

She got the Whish Body Wash instead of the correcting gel. That should count as an incorrect item.

Tried the lipstick to see if I liked it. I don't. It slides around. Whoever said that about it all being gone except for a ring around your lips, that's what happened. Going in the trash.

The argon oil smells good. And the body wash smells good in the tube.  

Awww, that's too bad. Did you get the Red Velvet one? I got that one and felt that it needed a really long time to dry first on my lips before I put on a gloss or eat or drink. But afterwards, it won't slide around as much.

Somehow the even was so disorganized that it was hard to figure out where are BB representatives, if any at all!

Oops wrong thread.

Thanks Scooby!

Yeah, that's what I meant. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

A few months back, I was supposed to get some sort of Elizabeth Arden facial scrub, and I was excited to try it. But when my box came, there was a serum in there instead. So, I wrote BB and they sent me a replacement item. I figure, as long as they still have them, they will send a replacement. And if not, probably some points.

ooooh yup they have definitely done that. one time they were sending out both luna bars and mints. i got a luna bar but my account said mints. since they had some left they just sent me them in a separate order!

Yes, it was the Red Velvet. A few minutes after application it was gone all across my lip. Like it just slid right off or something.

I would be happy to give it away if anyone wants it? I have no use for it.

I love red lipstick, but without fail every time I wear it some creep will make a comment about it. I wore the Beso sample I got this week and some random douchecanoe said, "I like those lips, baby." Ew. Same thing happens when I wear a suit. IDK, just yuck.

Does cancelling affect the anniversary code? I canceled for February, which would have been my 13th month and resubbed in March. I never got the keychain or code. Maybe they just don't like me. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I registered for the NY event and then literally forgot about it. I was in meetings all day and then was halfway home when I realized. The Juice Beauty stuff doesn't really appeal to me, so I don't really care.

They treated mine like a new sub after I cancelled and started again. But that was in 2011.

I may have worn the lipstick to go out but I hate the formula.

 

[msbelle]

I sent an email asking if they wanted me to just do the review on the item that was already on my page or if they wanted to change it. I thought they should know about the wrong item being sent though since they had all the missing shadows. I don't mind getting the body wash, it does smell good.

I got a good box for once!   I really like my model co lipstick, and didn't find any problems with application.  I got the color "Dusk Till Dawn".  I also got a deluxe sample of Juice Beauty oil free moisturizer.  The moisturizer smells like floor cleaner-but it feels amazing-My other samples were pretty small-but i did get two nice items together worth $15.  

Looks great, I think I am getting the same color.

It didn't effect me. And I cancelled for a little bit and picked up a gift sub with leftover points for a few months about a year ago.

There was a table where they were doing makeup "touch-ups" with Juice Beauty.  She actually was doing full makeup and it was lovely.  It wasn't overly crowded.  I posted a picture of my box on instagram - haven't figured out how to post it yet.

Welcome!

You can have it. I haven't thrown it in the trash. But I sure wanted to when I saw the color because everyone else with this box number got Kitty, lol.

Just wanted to say thank you for the added word to my vocab...douchecanoe.

Yes it affects You if you cancel. I cancelled one month and joined right back and I had to pull teeth to get that keychain.

USPS finally deemed my box worthy of delivery today after holding it at the post office 20 minutes away for the past 4 days.
