They should send you one of the other variation products. I got the lipstick gloss duo 4 times and they sent me something else from that month to try every time because they can tell you did the survey already in a previous month.

Have you tried the trick of putting in your order number in a past month's tracking page? I didn't receive a shipping notice until after my box was delivered to me yesterday. Could be that your GB has already shipped and they just haven't sent you the tracking info yet.

I'm surprised to see all of the positive reactions. I got my box today and was quite underwhelmed when I opened it. I had not read any of the spoilers so I did not know what to expect. I received the version with the evologie blemish serum. I am pretty sure I received the same/similar sample in February. I will have to double check as I still have it unopened in my stash somewhere. Everything except the balm was really tiny. I will probably only get 1-2 uses out of the masque (it's 1 oz). The serum is .17 oz, the gel is 1 oz, the polish is .13 oz, and the wipes have 10 in them. I just am not sure it was worth my money this month. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I was with Glossybox from the beginning and then got my last box in December and I have managed to not get hooked again even with all their emails and codes. I've really think ipsy is a better value and have stuck with them BUT I just got a "we miss you" email that says 15% off forever...

So.... has much changed since I've been gone? Snail shipping? Poor packaging and horrible CS?? I just don't know if I'll be wowed enough for $18/mo

What to do? What to do?

I've seen it estimated at around 35 bucks, which is significantly lower than the usual box worth.

I've been on and off with them since the beginning, but my last box was January I think? They sucked me back in with this, lol. I'll prob cancel by October because they annoy me so much. But a permanent discount was worth it.

Don't lose hope! I just got my shipping email this morning and it shipped a couple days ago.

Heads up - they only have the light shade of bb matte. They are going to send me something else.

Just joined Glossybox after getting my first Birchbox.  Very excited for it to be shipped!!!

That's really interesting! I personally wouldn't do it. I've only been signing up for the special collaboration boxes (Man Repeller and Dallas Shaw) I went ahead an stayed subscribed for July because I got 20% but I'm not doing anymore. If you look on Instagram their boxes from other countries are way better. I've kept up with what's been in each box all year and so far the only one that was worth the money to me is the Man Repeller box.

 I also think I am bummed out about the boxes because I see what they offer in other countries and i prefer most of those. rarely have I seen a box there that disappointed.

I'm going to be rather pissed if I get another Evologie.  I already preemptively cancelled after seeing another headache-inducing Bulgari product, and sent them a long email explanation of why I was canceling.  Supposedly everyone else loves the Bulgari stuff and that's why they keep sending it.  (lol).  Just not sure my calling and whining about a duplicate will have much effect if I've already cancelled... (I did get a response back from the COO with some decent coupon codes, so I will probably just jump back in for collab boxes as they come up).

 

[CaptainSassy]

Yeah I've been reading through some reveals and comments and I think I won't resub. But I do have 1100 glossydots but I don't think I can redeem those unless I do sub. Wish it were like Julep and I could skip months.

 

[jannie135]

I got the evologie too and it the same as the one from feb (size and everything) but it doesn't come as a duo. I emailed them. Also... did they skip the glossymag this month? lol...

Woah I got a reply in ten minutes!!! She told me to choose five things that they've sampled in the past that I want to try and they'll try to send one out. Woot.
