Dear Kimberly, 


We have contacted the company regarding this issue. Once we receive a reply we will e-mail you with their response and resolution.

 


I apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience.

 


Kind Regards,


Jessie, From The GLOSSYBOX Team


Most of the sub companies do this and it's pretty annoying, but they probably don't count on everyone relaying what was compensated back to a message board. I know BB is incredibly inconsistent as well. Part of Glossybox's problem is they use interns for this stuff I think from some ads they were running a while back looking for interns in Customer Service.

Hello! Im new to makeuptalk and Glossybox. 

I live in Sweden so I get the swedish version of Glossybox. My first will be the june box. And its a special edition blue one with starfish on it, i think the UK has the same packaging. What bums me out is that it some summer edition. Summer is over in late august here since Sweden is so far north so it would made sense to have it as a july-.box atleast.

Glossybox is the only company that has a service like this in sweden so it has been spoken of alot in the blogging community.

Surprisingly I haven't had any issues with Birchbox but Glossybox has drove me absolutely crazyyyyyy! At the end of Feb I ordered a gift box for a friend for her birthday...it took me 9 weeks to get it... I also never received 2 promotional items from coupon codes; one from the goft box and one from my march box. After contacting them about 5 times I finally got answers and they told me they would send me my missing box and a box full of extras for the inconvience. Three weeks went by- STILL NOTHIN! Then I started posting my issues on their Facebook (I hate when people do that lol) a week after that I got my missing box yet never received my "extras" or promotional items. So annoying. This month I used my glossy points. If I'm not impressed I'm canceling. Wow I feel better now that I let that out haha End of rant

Welcome! I would love to hear about the glossybox you get - you'll have to PM me when you get it! International boxes always seem much better compared to the US ones =)

Welcome! I am getting the German Glossybox and they have the same theme and blue box for this month. I wonder if they are sending out similar items?

Maybe all european ones are the same? It might possibly be some similar items maybe thy all get packed in the same place?. Im thinking since its a summer edition some sunlotion or perhaps bronzer. I do really not hope its a bronzer. I am too pale and they make my face look dirty.

Thanks!

My best friend also has glossybox, she has had it more than I. Ill ask her too about her items. 

Another thing, i saw in my email inbox that Glossybox has  competition for a trip for to to Barcelona/Spain, is it just us Swedes that got it?

Im trying to come up with a good reason for me to win it.

I haven't seen that contest in the German page, maybe just for Sweden. From what I have seen seems like you guys get the best Glossy boxes.

That's probably because GB was started by Rocket Internet, which is a German start-up. All the European versions have better contents, bigger product sizes, special themed packaging, and more events/contests. I don't know why the U.S. GB is so bootleg.

My theory is that its easier for Swedish glossybox to get sponsors since they have about thirty thousand boxes so that would mean thirty thousand products for the company that sponsors. In the US and other countries where GB is a lot bigger it might be hard for the companies to give out a huuuge lot of fullsize products. Cause im guessing there are over a hundred thousand subscribers in the US

And how much is GB in your country? I pay 21 USD for one box, seems like its the same in the US.

I don't know if you got the blue box with starfish. I saw a picture on Instagram under Glossybox UK featured a caite nail polish!! WOW! I wish Glossybox US can follow their choices!

Also, my GB has shipped and could be here today or tomorrow.

Sure it does! Please share.

Apologies mods - didn't realise that blog links weren't allowed, sorry /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm a newbie /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> In my (UK) box this month I got dry shampoo, hair mist, facial spritz, ciate nail polish and tinted sunscreen n_n

 

[JC327]

The German one is 15 Euros so about $20 dollars give or take. Last month was a collaboration with Grazia magazine and I got a full size Butter London polish. I will try to take pics and post.

Huh. My reaction was something like...

'Wait you mean there's a...

*order placed*

Martha Stewart Living box?'

No idea what'll be in it, but I suppose I'll find out.
