I just received my glossybox yesterday and i got the same exact items as ashitude.  i am new to glossybox and really enjoyed this box, however the carols daughter lotion was the biggest let down.  it smells amazing straight out of the jar, but once applied to skin it turned into this foul powdery super "clean" smelling thing.  stuff like that gives me headaches so i gave it away immediately.  everything else in the box i look forward to using.

btw i got my email today that my glossybox shipped, but i received it yesterday, so the timing is a little off.
I just got my notice to. Guess it is better than stalking the tracking for days. I would totally do that.

I really liked my carols daughter lotion. It smells a bit weird when I put it on but after about a half hour it smells really good on my skin. It was my favorite thing. hehe 

Do the lipstick colors vary box to box?

 
I got my notice. I should get it friday

I got my notice and I am supposed to get it Friday hopefully! My post office likes to deliver things late so hopefully I will get it on time!!

Interesting. I signed up for 3 month with the code COSMO (expires end of this month if anyone is interested) earlier this month and that one claims to come with "extra box of beauty goodies" as opposed to an extra month.

My 3 month subscription runs out in November, so I might use that code for another 3 month sub.  I would get two Nov boxes of course, but I'm hoping the end of the year boxes will be pretty good, like the UK Christmas one last year.  Of course, I realize i'd be spending $120 in 2 months just on GB... I think I have a problem, lol.
I just got the August Pure Luxury box arrive with no notification, no notes or anything. I assume this is the "box of beauty goodies" they are talking about?? I can't complain since this is the best box to date with the Ellis Faas, Illamasqua and truth serum. It seems like for both the NYFW and COSMO codes, they just send out any extra boxes they have sitting around from previous months and I got really lucky. Other subbies got the July box I heard with the get 4 for the price of 3 promo. I guess it's just luck of the draw. COSMO is still good for another 2 weeks but NYFW expired. 

I also got my Oct shipping notice and it was shipped on Monday and will be delivered by the end of the week. 

 
does anyone know what they'll have for november? i might try this out if november is good...

 
I was definitely hoping the NYFW code got us an extra box in November. Let down. My dad said I had an extra box before, but I guess that option didn't register. They shipped to my billing address, so I haven't gotten any of my boxes yet. I won't be home until Thanksgiving though. Although I don't like the idea of repeats, I actually liked the heel balm and wouldn't mind another one.

 
I feel like i'm the only one who has yet to get tracking information. Last box my tracking information updated on their website 2 days before I got the email, but this time no dice.

I have no tracking info and usually I am the first to get a box.

 
I can't believe people are already getting their boxes! I could be mistaken, but I don't remember ever getting a GB before the last week of the month! I'm all excited now! (And still super confused!)

In the past, makeup items with color choices have varied box to box, yes. They say they try to match your beauty profile, but that has been a debatable point. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I haven't got tracking. Not even when I check my account.

On the survey note: I do like that they ask if you'd like to try more stuff by a brand, and then give options. I hope that it's taken into account. It'd be nice to see us influence results.

Does glossybox ship UPS or USPS? I can't remember.
Yep! They ship via Newgistics, who ships the package to a local PO and USPS finishes the delivery. You can also plug in your tracking number into newgistics.com to see shipping progress :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'm usually the last to get my box, which is slightly ridiculous since I live in Ct! Once they finally ship it, it usually only takes 3 or 4 days, but I'm always in the last group to be shipped and I'm not sure why! =(
