FabFitFun Spring 2014 Box *Spoilers*

[afwife8405]

Just tried the cultgaia code and it isn't working

 

[Laurenv78]

First thoughts...

Kai Perfume Oil $48 - not sure that I will like this but am ok with ebaying it to recoup some of the cost of this box
Cover FX SPF 30 protection primer $38 - I don't really find primer does much for me, but I'll try this before trading etc
Merrithew Mini Stability Ball and DVD $28.94 - glad this one came with a video.  My son (6) and I are going to do this together now that we have the ps ball and this one!
Dermasuri Deep exfoliating Mitt $19.99 - will definitely get used all summer long
Cult Gaia Turband $48 - REALLY hoping for the floral or polka dots one.  I never get the one I want.  Will there a FFF trade thread??
Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo $25 - again, does nothing for my hair.  Will ebay or trade
Level Naturals Shower Bombs $7.99 - I like these.  I usually use essential oils in the shower
The Better Chip Spinach and Kale $1.99 - my bf is a kale addict...we will enjoy these!

Loving polka dot headband! I will be sad if I get cherries! Lol

I feel the same way. I hope I don't get the one with cherries.

Got a shipment notification -- Scheduled to arrive Monday! 

I loovveee when my packages arrive Friday/Monday.  Although it doesn't matter, I work at home those days, and I prefer my husband NOT know how many of these things I bought this month.... 

 

[greer]

So I ordered two boxes but only got one shipping notification, is this this normal? The tracking only says one parcel.

This is my first box so I couldn't resist the spoilers. It's a bit underwhelming, but being that I got $10 off, I'd say I definitely got my money's worth. I'm actually fairly pleased with everything in the box EXCEPT the dry shampoo and primer. I have too much of both as I keep getting them in subscription boxes..though I can't say they won't be used, they will, just would have liked something I don't already have or am out of. Oh well. I'm excited to try the shower bombs, look very interesting, and I don't get popsugar so I'm thrilled about the exercise ball and DVD. Not so sure about the Kai, but I'll have to smell it to be sure. I REALLY hope I get that cherries pattern on the turbaband, SOOO cute!! I'd be willing to trade if someone gets the cherries and I don't... just saying /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  According to shipping, my box arrives on Tuesday, even  knowing what's in it, I'm beyond thrilled! I just love subscription services

If I get the cherries, I'm totally willing to trade!  Its not really my style.

If anyone wants to sell their box (or trade) or parts of their box, send me a PM.

I'm most interested in the Turband, shower bombs, dry shampoo and exfoliating mitts.

I got my shipping notice right now and my box arrived earlier this afternoon, so I wouldn't worry if you haven't gotten an email yet. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Thoughts after looking at my box:

Kai perfume: I like the smell of this one. It smells really..."clean," if that makes sense? I feel like I already have a perfume that smells like this, so I might have to sniff around before I decide to keep/trade/sell this

FX Primer: I have a sample of this from Sephora somewhere. I'll use that one up to see if I like it before I keep this one. I usually use a BB/CC cream as a primer, but we will see how this one goes.

Stablility Ball: My PS ball arrived without a plug, so I haven't been able to use it. I blew this one up and am excited to use it. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> LOVE that it came with a DVD, as I'm usually a hike/jog person. Workout routines are new to me, lol.

Dry Shampoo: I try to not wash my hair too frequently (maybe 2/3X a week) because I color it pretty often. I love getting dry shampoo, but after hearing the mix reviews about this particular brand on here, I might snoop around before using it.

Exfoiliating mitt: I really wish there were two! I'm big on exfoiliating, so this will be generously used, haha. 

Shower bombs: As an ex-LUSH employee, I'm a sucker for anything like this. The menthol smells soooo good and soothing! Can't wait to try these.

Kale chips: I like sea salt, so that's a plus, but no way would I pay $2 for these. I wish the bag were a little bigger, but I'm greedy. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Cult Gaia turband: LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. I'm obsessed with the pinup lifestyle, and although I own a ton of turbands/scarves, none have a wife in them like this one. It's so easiy to style with! 

That being said, I did get the black polka dotted Cherry one, and I realllly want the blue/navy polka dot turband! Is there a trade thread somewhere?



 

 

[Kenzie Bailey]

Mine is set to arrive on Monday!!!
That being said, I'm actually pretty impressed with the contents of this box.  Anything I don't keep will likely be re-gifted (like that pesky mini stability ball that is essentially the same one I got in my PSMH box).  Loving the blue and red with polka-dot and the floral turbands, not the biggest fan of the cherries (not really my style). 

Also, saw an instagram with the teal polka-dot one, so cute!!

omg you should see what i go through to sneak my packages in the house lol. The oh i won a giveaway is getting old and he knows im not that lucky lol! This is a new sub for me and i already have five dif subs so hes gonna kill me l

 

[greendrinkin]

I have to say this is my first box from FFF and oh how I wish I knew about this sub six months ago because I absolutley loved the last two boxes! As for this one unfortunately the only thing of this entire box i like or will use is the dry shampoo and I can only hope i will fall in love with the scent of the perfume if not it and everything else will either be uo on ebay or in a trade list! I am not too upset though because my experience with these subs is you cant win them all and I wontt always be happy but from what I have seen of past boxes i will hold on a lil longer and see what the summer box has in store for me! I was really hoping for a new pair of sunglasses and I would have been super excited to try the st,tropez tanning but what can you do. Heres hoping summer box will be more suited for me

I came across this article on dry shampoo.

Now there are more reasons to keep trying dry shampoo.

My shipping notice came.  Expected delivery is Monday 03/24.

I don't want cherries either! Hoping for the floral one mostly, but I'll be happy with polka dots too /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Haha! I'm so glad it's not just me that sneaks all these subs past her hubby. I'm also happy for a Monday delivery cause I get off early and can get everything unpacked and put away before hubs gets home!! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Alright...I want my box now lol.

I am so excited for this box specially for those bath bombs & exfoliating mitt!! 

I don't really ever use dry shampoo because my hair is oily but my scalp is dry??

Anyone else have that issue or know of any good shampoos/conditioner?

I had the same issue for a long time and had to stop using conditioner to correct the oily hair.. But I dealt with a dry scalp for my entire life (trying a million different "remedies" over the years) until a few weeks ago I finally went and got medicated shampoo from the dermatologist. I use it only on my scalp, and then shampoo the ends of my hair with a good shampoo... Sometimes I also condition the ends if it's looking dry and in need of it. Since I started this routine I've had a pretty good balance now between my hair and scalp! Edit: But I also live by dry shampoo for my bangs b/c they get really oily from my forehead.
