My box shipped on the 22nd, but the last update to the tracking info was on the 25th when it was still in NJ. This is really starting to get on my nerves. At least if I could see it was making some progress, or had some kind of projected delivery date, I'd be happy.

I go out of town for a week on Saturday, I SHOULD have my box by then. Right? Right???

Same.boat.here.

 
My shipping hasn't updated since being in Indiana on 4/24. It FINALLY made it to Ohio and it should be in my box tomorrow! GAHHHH! I'm dying! Tomorrow is gonna be like Christmas, I seriously doubt I'll sleep tonight! I just checked all of my shipping info and I'll be getting Glossybox, QVC New Beauty Testtube, Allure Beauty Box, and if I'm lucky (if not then Wednesday) my Dr Dennis Gross QVC order with the Beauty with Benefits gift bag filled with a crap load of goodies. AHHhHh! The postman and UPS guys are gonna be like WTF lady?! And Sephora had the nerve to just send me an email telling me I'm $6 away from VIB status for this year....

Christmas in April that sounds amaze!!! Take pics for us :)
 
ugh - same here. mine hasnt updated since the 25th when it was in NJ! it says the expected delivery is 5/1 - 5/2. we shall see!

 
I got the blush in Haute, I like the color alright, but it's so glittery. I like shimmer blushes but I think it's a little much.

 
I finally got my box! The bad news is, my body wash leaked out. The good news is that it didn't ruin anything and I was able to clean everything up.

I got the blush in Awaken (the orangey pink color, kind of an apricot). I'm happy with this, I don't have a shade like it, and I have so many pinks!

The lip balm in orange vanilla (what I was hoping for!)

and I used the Zoya code and got Tracie (Faded, yellow-toned pistachio green with delicate silvery shimmer for a frosted pearl finish)



Awaken...it's a pretty color!



Tracie...I like green!



Everything together after I cleaned the body wash off of everything...

I am a lot happier with this box than I expected to be, honestly. I'm iffy about the beach spray, and I already have a bottle by Bumble and Bumble that I haven't figured out how to use, but I'll try it. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Has anyone had any luck using the hair product on straight hair? I applied to damp hair and scrunched and twirled and finger waved . . . I even looked around and found three bobby pins and did some pin curls. All I ended up with was a slight increase in volume and a kink from one of the bobby pins. This morning I tried on dry hair and nothin'. I think this beach spray is no match for my super strong straight hair!

My hair is pretty straight, but it worked great for me! I sprayed a bunch of it in my hair before I went to bed, braided my hair, and then went to sleep. When I got up I undid the braids gently and just kinda pulled the strands apart and I had really pretty waves. :)

Glad it worked for you! Wouldn't you have had waves anyway from the braids?
 
I got the lip balm in purely simple which is unscented and very moisturizing.  I got the blush in haute which is too dark for me.  PM if interested in trading.

I was wondering about the same thing. I had a friend curl my hair once. It's so thick that it took her over an hour to do. Then several hours later it was straight again. I was bummed.

I have super straight, thick hair and was also thinking that spray would do nothing for me.  But I applied it my damp hair and scrunched it kinda haphazardly and then let it air dry.  I ended up with more volume and very light, wavy like hair.  I was excited for it b/c like I said my hair is just super straight all the time so it was nice to have something a bit different and I think it definitely gave that beach hair effect. 

 
Got my box, finally!  

My Tigi is awaken

Lip balm was Purely simple   Pretty pleased this month, except for the Bvlgari tea bag. I'll probably sell it on eBay.  The lotion sample was a little disappointing.  

 
Well, I am officially not getting my box in April :/

Ditto, this is the first time that I m not getting it in April. It's been departed from Nevada facility yesterday on the way to SF. Won't get it by Thursday at least.

Same thing happened to me. :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> There was not a drop in the bottle, it was all in the box and all over everything. Made me so upset, I was really happy to finally have my box and I open it and it's in a giant mess.
