I received mine today and I liked it.

Nothing too exciting the R29 boxes look amazing compared to the normal ones.

The lip/eye liner is in the color hex. Its a nude color its very pretty...I may use it for the inner corner of my eyes to brighten my eyes. 

I also received the blush and its very pretty.

I got lucky and did end up receiving the glossybox lipstick with the promo its very pretty! I love it...such a beautiful color. 

 
My R29 box arrived and I loooove it! GB sent me the shipping email on Tuesday (tracking never worked) and my box arrived yesterday.

Sweet! I never get up in arms about shipping or tracking, I've just had boxes delivered to sticky-fingered neighbors (I live in an apt). Glad to know people are still receiving them.

Ugh, that's frustrating! Packages in my complex are delivered to the leasing office (which is nice because neighbors don't steal them, but then you have to pick up packages during office hours lol). But yeah, my tracking number never worked so I just crossed my fingers. Hopefully yours arrives today! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Got my box yesterday, similar to many other boxes:

 Eye pencil in Honour

 Lierac Face Scrub (love the smell)

 Mostly empty Truffle Serum 

 Argan Oil

 Perfumies - I got two, Vanilla Ice, and Tough Cookie

 + coupons and such

I was at first happy to get two perfumies, but they are really not very good quality...sad. I am excited to try the scrub because I have been in need of one for a while. I tried my teenie weenie sample of truffle serum, and really liked it. Shame it's pretty much gone after one application. More eye pencils in colors I don't particularly need. Meh. Hope December's box is way better, especially since I bought a gift sub for a friend. 

On an exciting side note, this was my fourth glossybox, so I was able to make the little drawer set thing I saw in some tutorials online. :-D 



 
I got my box yesterday. On Monday GB sent me three different emails with tracking numbers - the first two were invalid.

I couldn't find it yesterday, but went to the "Face" tab & then selected "Scrubs & Cleansers".  It is $0.00 & shipping is free.  I tried to enter GLOSSYBOX code & it said it was invalid.  So, I continued, added it to cart, selected free shipping.  When I got to the payment page, it told me "No Payment Info Is Needed".  I got an email confirmation of the order.
Now it's not available - Sorry, We're Currently Out of Stock but more products will become available over the next few hours due to the overwhelming request of this product.

 
Mine was delivered to a neighbor, who brought it to my house. My baby answered the door, so I'm not sure which neighbor. I got the liner in a light blue color that I hope goes on silvery or white

 
My tracking info still doesn't show up in my profile but I got the shipping email earlier this week :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> GB WHERE ARE YOUUUUUUUUUU

 
I got my R29 box today. My tracking also never updated, but I'm glad they finally fixed their mistake and sent me a box. I think I'll take a break from Glossybox for a while, but I know I'll still be stalking the spoiler threads.

Ladies! Did you all get the email from glossybox about the gift subscriptions? Mine was in my spam folder so if not check there first. If you are a subscriber, you can gift a one month December subscription for $15, which you can actually have mailed to your house. The coupon code '5r29' will take $5 more dollars off, making it ten dollars. Andddddd if you go through ebates.com it will give you $2.75 back. Seriously an awesome deal. I gifted a second one to myself and depending on if I am in love with the box or not I will keep it, gift it, or use the random unwanted samples for stocking stuffers this year. So happy with this purchase regardless.

Awesome thanks for the code! Is this a Refinery 29 deal in general or is that just a code that happened to work with it?

 
did anyone else use the cosmo code?  i was supposed to get a free fourth box but they emailed me letting me know that my subscription is up (in response to another question i asked) and haven't answered my subsequent email clarifying that i have another box to go.  i wanted to jump on this 5r29 deal but it says i'm not an active subscriber :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I used the cosmo code on 10/31 and they sent me an e-mail saying my subscription is up though I've only received one of the four months I should get.  I've also sent them an e-mail but figured I would wait to call until next week as I'm sure they are busy handling customer concerns about the current box and my question can wait a little bit.

That's so cute!  Almost worth subscribing for 4 months.  I was kinda "meh" about my first GB.  

 
Thanks so much!  I couldn't pass this up for more fodder for gift boxes at only $7.25 for a GlossyBox!  Awesome.  One item in it alone is bound to be worth that.  I hope the Ebates shows up, did it show up for you?  The only reason I wondered is it opened a new tab when I hit the Gift link and usually all of my Ebates orders I keep in the same tab.  

I hope the December GlossyBoxes are great.  Last year's December subs were varied for me.  MyGlam hit it out of the park with it's premiere bag and my Birchbox was caught up in the snafu of last December and I was one that didn't get it, but the things that were included were some of the least favorites it seemed.  I thought that was odd, I thought that companies would want to try to have an amazing year end box.  I guess the luck of the draw and the lottery type feeling is what keeps us on our toes, that's for sure.  Can't wait to see what the companies are planning for December subs.
