Spoiler

my variations are the Philip b. "lovin' leav-in conditioner, the "spice of life" sparitual, and the tarte in fair/light

the eyeliner I got from using the code WINK it's the same one from the march box I believe. Also the Phillip b product I got was covered in dirt and dust. What's that about?? And the entire glossymag is just pictures upon pictures upon pictures of Dallas shaw. Yawn. Overall a good box, because I can see myself using all of these products, however I will be canceling. Moving on to greener makeup sub pastures. Lol

Awesome box after seeing the spoilers I gave in and bought a second box. Going to get the eyeshadow extra with the first one and the lip and check tint with the second one. Probaly going to cancel after this month got to start saving up for vacation.

Mmm Interesting.. I'm trying to figure out.. Maybe they, well, you are closer to their headquarter NJ so like it always has been east coast getting firs to the last to the West Coast?.. I don't know what their system or how it works..

Hahaha Lexxies, I have been trying to figure out their shipping since January. Granted, I am blonde but so far I did not come to a logical conclusion. I live in the Midwest, in humid Missouri. So far i have gotten my box always around the 28th of each month. Let's see if the lip item is completely mush by the time it arrives in my doorstep and probably lies in the sun all day.

Yeah as you can see I'm blonde, too 

.  Yeah it is no fun when it comes to a melted lipstick. I just hope that it would withstand the weather

Hallulejah! Just got their shipment confirmation via email. It just departed from Elizabethan, NJ on 26th.

My box is on it's way too!! I should get it in a week or less. I caved and got this box. I canceled after their "birthday" box, and then this one looked awesome! It will probably be my last beauty box for a while. I am moving soon and we are down sizing. I sadly have more than enough make up, so no more shopping for me. :-(

That's my only worry with this box. I would be so disappointed but I have a feeling it will be solid enough (hopefully!)

I just got the same confirmation and mine's in the same place.  It was picked up by their shipping partner on the 21st and has been sitting around in NJ since.

This is my tracking info:

6/26/2013 4:14 PM FISHERS, IN 46037 Departed Shipping Partner Facility 6/26/2013 4:55 AM FISHERS, IN 46037 Arrived Shipping Partner Facility 6/25/2013 5:52 PM ELIZABETHPORT, NJ 07206 Departed Shipping Partner Facility 6/25/2013 5:50 AM ELIZABETHPORT, NJ 07206 Arrived Shipping Partner Facility 6/18/2013 11:02 PM KEARNY, NJ 07032 Picked Up by Shipping Partner


It makes no sense to me that it took 7 days from Kearny to Elizabethport. New Jersey is not that big of a state!!!!

 At least from there it has been going pretty quick. It might get here by Monday.

Looks like the website is down. They are trying to foil my plans to cancel, I just know it! 

Before I do cancel, does Glossybox do anything special for your birthday month?
Yes.  They bait-and-switch you with the Man Repeller box.  (I am one of those that did NOT get the lipstick that that was advertised everywhere.  Even gifted myself a second box for my birthday that month and got TWO blushes.  gRRR.) 


Their evil plot has been thwarted! I cancelled late last night once I was able to get on the website. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Nope! They did nothing my birthday month.


Thanks for the info! I ditched them!

Still no shipping for me.  I guess I won't be getting my Glossybox until July at this rate.  I'm glad I cancelled.  It's a shame, because if it had actually arrived on the original expected delivery day, it would have arrived on my birthday.

I hope you had a fabulous birthday!

My tracking also was stuck in Kearny for 7 days! But it is finally out for delivery; looking forward to the tarte /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I also just ordered two Bondi polishes (Lady Liberty and Botanical Beauty with the free top coat) and have already received a tracking number. Now that's fast!

It must be traveling by turtle. 

 turtle sounds about right. Definitely not a Ninja Turtle though! I know I am not the most patient person but this is not reasonable to me. It takes us 16 hours to drive to NJ. I feel like things I ordered from China have arrived faster.

 I'm wearing Botanical Beauty on my toes and I'm in love!!

My box just arrived! I will admit, the box itself is adorable. I will use it to stash my manicure supplies & stamping plates. I also noticed that the Glossymag has a nice Bondi advertisement in it. Guess it was too late to change before the boxes went out. I hope it brings Bondi some more business. They're a great company and they deserve it! 

Philip B. Hair Gel (dusty as hell as you can see), Tarte in Medium-to-Tan (I'm pale as f@%k but it looks do-able), SpaRitual in Whirlwind Romance (the palest of ballet pinks, very sheer)



This is after 4 coats. It has a lovely shimmer. 

I'm not much a hair gel girl so I may just throw it on the trade list. Not sure about the polish either. I'm more in to bold, bright colors. Perhaps I'll try my hand at frankening. The perfumes all smell pretty nice at first sniff. I look forward to giving each a more in-depth trial. I'm also looking forward to trying out the dry oil since I chose a Julep box that doesn't have their dry oil this month. I'll reserve judgement on the Tarte lipstick until after I see some swatches. I'm pretty darn pale and not much for dark lip colors so we'll see.

 

[dbella]

Nice.  I hope I don't get the hair gel or that shade of polish though.  I don't use hair gels since my hair is baby fine and stick straight - it would do zero except weigh it down more and I don't wear pale nail polish.  I'm really hoping I get the shampoo and a darker or brighter nail color.
 

 

[lexxies22]

Heeey Bondi just posted careers availability on their FB !!! I can't seem to find its way there.

 

[evildrporkchop]

i got my two boxes today. don't love the nail polish shades i got (death by chocolate and spirit child). would've preferred the bondi colors, but i'm not big into polish anyway. i also received two lipsticks in fair-light. gah! i need medium-tan. oh, well. it should still work. i'm liking everything else! good month for me!
