While I am not super underwhelmed by this box I am glad I did not bite the bullet and purchase this box. I would have only really been in it for the Kai. I think it's a nice box and I would have been happy with it but as someone else stated... just got an exercise ball in the PSMH box. I love dry shampoo but am not a huge fan of that particular brand. It just didn't work for me.

Anyhow, I hope everyone who got a box enjoys it!

 
I actually think I liked the Winter Box more but whatever! I still really like everything (including the exercise ball even though we did just get the PSMH one). I was trying for no spoilers and failed fast! Guess I'll have to be stronger with my Nina Garcia box ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
My first box and pretty excited. Thanks for the peeks to the contents. I am digging the reviews on the exfoliating mitt. A little bummed that they are including a ball like popsugar but oh well...at least this one has a dvd :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  Super pumped about Kai for sure and verdict is out on the turband until I try it. I always have trouble keeping headband types in place. Maybe I have an odd shaped skull. LOL

 
I'm going to be SO SAD when this isn't waiting for me at home after work!! I hate when I don't get tracking, I feel so out of control...

 
Wow, I cannot believe you got your FFF box already.   And I can't believe they sent dry shampoo.  Dry shampoo seems to be in many subscriptions out there.  I keep trying it but, don't know why someone would use it.  I have not liked the smell of any one I have tried.
I wash my hair every morning, and I have big, thick, dark, curly hair that's very long and layered. I use it in the evenings before I go out at the roots. I actually use this specific one, too. It gives my roots volume and just a touch of texture, plus it smells really good. They make a texturizing spray that I use as well, but I find the dry shampoo gives me less texture, and more lift.

I did post it on instagram though.it has:Kai Perfume Oil $48Cover FX SPF 30 protection primer $38Merrithew Mini Stability Ball and DVD $28.94Dermasuri Deep exfoliating Mitt $19.99Cult Gaia Turband $48Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo $25Level Naturals Shower Bombs $7.99The Better Chip Spinach and Kale $1.99
Thanks for sharing the pic. I pretty much love it and it's my first box from FFF. Actually my first box period other than the Ipsy bag this month. (that was my first sub actually) I'm maybe a tad underwhelmed. I guess I was hoping for maybe a necklace or sunglasses so dry shampoo is kind of a bummer and so is another primer. Overall its looks like I will love it though.

 
I am super surprised it arrived as quickly as it did, especially since they said they weren't shipping until today. Mine shipped from Los Angeles (I live in Sacramento), but it was also shipped USPS, so it could have been sent yesterday I suppose. I tracked it on USPS and it didn't even receive the tracking info until 3:38am and arrived here in sac by 11:00 today.

For me, it was a win. I've been way more disappointed by a lot of the popsugar boxes I've received than this. My favs are the turband, primer, mitt and the kai, those things make it worth it for me. It blows my mind that the blandi dry shampoo was valued at $25, I got my barely used one at Big Lots for $5 and couldn't have been more disappointed in it. I can imagine a thousand other things under $25 that I would have rather had, but hey, I won't be that picky! LOL.

I completely hear you! $45 is a good chunk for most of us, I don't normally subscribe to anything but Ipsy, but I went on a roll ordering one off's last month! I would have loooooved a pair of sunglasses or jewelry over a couple of the items in the box.

Thanks for the positive feedback.  Now I am excited to try it.

 
Thanks for the spoilers!  Didn't think I'd be back after the less-than-impressive first box back in the day, but I caved.

Excluding the chips, it's 7 solid items - dividing that by the $45 purchase price, that's less than $6.50 each and I'd certainly pay that much or more for the Kai, primer, mitt, etc.

 
I am so excited!  This has two of my favorite must have products:  the Kai perfume oil and the Level Shower Bombs.  My little guy absconded with my Popsugar Stability ball, so apparently I need more of those.  I am totally tempted to buy another box!  ... or maybe I just stalk the trade threads and try to get more of what I love as I know that everyone won't be excited by my favorites.  

 
#4 looks like the exfoliating mit on some kind of stand. I thought for sure it'd be a necklace!

 
I've always thought it looked like Guiliana Rancic's head.... Maybe that's just a bust as it's her box??

 
This is my first FFF box. Do they send out shipping notices? When I click on the view shipment tracking there is nothing there...

 
They do send shipping notification, but the winter box (my first) showed up before tracking was sent!

 
I'm working allllllll day today (6:30am-7pm) and haven't received a shipping notification or anything so idk if my box has arrived yet or not? I'm shocked that anyone has gotten theirs already to be honest! I thought shipping just started today??? Based on the spoiler I am in between happy and bummed about this box. I'm pretty disappointed there was no jewelry or sunglasses, two things I was really wishing for... But I still think it's a decent box! It's my first, so I was hoping to be a little more wow'd by it but I'm happy that at least with this exercise ball we also get a DVD, and I've actually been trying to swap for a face primer and a dry shampoo (so I didn't have to spend more money) for weeks now... So I'm pretty pumped about both of those! I don't know if I can pull off the turband but I'm looking forward to trying it. Can't wait to smell the Kai and try the shower bombs too :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Kind of disappointed but whatever. Might keep my turband now. Definitely going to trade the dry shampoo and video and ball. I wanted a book, sunglasses or jewelry.

 
From the other photos up on Instagram, it looks like there is variation in the headbands. I've found 4 different photos and all are different patterns. Now I'm nervous! What if I don't like mine? Ahhh! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
