Agreed...I was trying to figure out what was wrong with her skin and couldn't lol.
I was referring to big bags under her eyes and very noticeable bumps on her face that look either like acne or keratosis. I have a 30'' monitor so all her imperfections literally jumped at me when I stumbled upon that closeup picture :x

I also don't like her messy hair but I guess that's her style.




To me, she just looks like someone with minor flaws just like the rest of us. To be honest, I'd rather take advice or recommendations from someone that seems real, and deals with the same skin/hair/beauty issues as I do, than someone who looks like a plastic doll or something. Because if something helps them, then maybe it will help me...whereas it's kind of hard to take someone seriously if they look like a wax doll, or you never see them without 50 layers of makeup...so who knows what their actual skin looks like. I don't think a person has to be perfect to have something to offer when it comes to beauty advice/product recommendations.

Well said! I completely agree
 
I agree. I think a lot of us aren't able to dedicate the time and/ or money for a super elaborate daily beauty routine. I know I am ALWAYS forgetting to put on some cream or elixer for my skin. I actually don't know why i got Lashem because I will never probably use it consecutively to see results. I think a box curiated by someone kinda low key might be an interesting change of pace!

I guess I don't know what "bags" are because I don't see any on her. Not enough to use it against her. And it looks like she's just smiling. I don't see anything wrong with we skin and the "I just rolled out of bed" look is totally in now adays.

 
I don't like the angle of that pic. I think it's unflattering for anyone to have that much of a sideways photo taken.

 
that girl looks totally fine to me, and I do agree on not having a perfect looking barbie doll picking products, a more real person would be much better and I hope the products are awesome for the girls that will get the box :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I won't cuz I'm only getting december, but gl to the ones that will :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Does anyone have experience with what happens with a 3 or  6 month sub expires. I am over GB.
then your sub just ends. You will need to re-sub to continue the service

 
Guess I'm in the minority here, because I would rather take beauty advice from someone who already achieved flawless complexion, which is why my only beauty guru is my derm who has the most beautiful skin as a result of years of chemical peels and a strict skincare routine. When I saw her photo from I think 10 years ago I couldn't believe that's the same woman!

 
whomp whomp. cancelled. Its been $170 that I really don't think was worth it. I just got my October and Nov boxes last week. 

fail fail fail

Guess I'll save the money for May when I graduate and finally get to get a pomeranian puppy :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I posted more details on this in another thread but suffice it to say I WILL NEVER go back to Glossybox no matter how much I like the items they send - which I DO. I've always said the items they send out are great products BUT considering items arrive damaged and getting a hold of someone is difficult and for some impossible I just can't justify spending $21 HOPING the items come intact and undamaged.

Am I expecting too much?

 
Hi guys, just wondering when I should expect to get charged for my January box? This is my first month with GlossyBox. I finally signed up because they were offering the 40% off discount for the December box, but I'll probably cancel after getting it unless it really wows me. I just want to make sure I cancel in time. Thanks! :)

I already canceled. Just getting the 40 percent box. They have too many issues and From what I have seen they will be charging soon.

I'll going to cancel too - this will be my first box with the 40% off code. Have these shipped yet!? I haven't received a shipping email or anything

Mine too. My order is complete but under shipping method it says no shipping info available. 

&& I just cancelled my account. The products seem great but not with all the hassle it seems to come with.

 
checked my tracking info and it shows expected delivery 12/20-12/21.  i then cancelled my account (again) because the site is still a mess and i still don't see value in it for me.

 
I haven't had any issues minus them charging me again for the discount box (which I just canceled the PayPal subscription and my SIL can get 2 boxes I guess) but seeing the issues makes me so worried that one day I will have a problem. It is so hard to unsubscribe though. I am hoping they turn a new leaf like MyGlam/Ipsy did.
