I also had to post this pic as well because I'm so giddy about it lol! Today was a fantastic mail day!

(And sorry, for some reason it keeps rotating the image!)

Christmas in October!! Woot!

 
Wow that looks like a good Friday!

I just got my box today and didn't get the enzyme peel, but got everything else I wanted. I won't get too picky with them since I did use the refinery deal and so far everything has been usable. I'm just glad I didn't get one of those dreaded nail polishes

Fingers crossed for you hehe! I think I may have an addiction - although, at least the Pop Up Pantry package, sample from Target (Dove deodorant), and BzzKit were free, so there's that lol.

Omg that's like my mail dream day.., what did you get from pop up pantry... I'm still trying to decide...
I got the Stuffed Peppers! I figured they'd reheat well, and the appetizer and dessert looked good, too (Mixed Greens Tart and a Blueberry Tart).

It certainly was like Christmas! I don't think my apartment leasing office was very happy lol. They called me today to let me know I had packages which they normally don't do haha. Ah well!

 
Got my box today too!  Same as Jenn's.  A good mail day, but nowhere near as exciting as Jess P's!

Overall, I'm happy with the box.  I am interested in trying the enzyme peel and the Carol's daughter stuff.  I wouldn't have chosen the hair stuff, but will try it and see what happens.  I like the color of the lipstick/gloss, but I think the packaging is very poorly designed in terms of the mirror placement.   Also, the lipstick side was a little dinged--the top had come off in the box.  The only thing I am not into is the loofah soap; I have SO MUCH soap already, including exfoliating soap.  This will go to trade.

Certainly was a great (and rare!) mail day, hence why I had to take a pic to document it lol. What'd you ladies think of the lipgloss (minus the mirror placement)? I absolutely love the scent!

 
I got mine today too! I have to wait until Monday to open it for my unboxing video. haha beauty blogger problems.

 
In regards to some earlier posts about the Missha BB cream::

Regular Account:: Medium:: Missha #23

R29 Account:: Light:: Missha #13

Instead of #21 they sent me the lightest shade... lol I traded with someone to get the right shade. If I get another one I'm going to pass it off to my mom lol

My Boxes for October::

This was my normal account that I subscribe month to month::





This is my r29 box. I got the heel cream but this account was created under a different email/new account. So I don't mind. It's not a repeat in their system.





The GlossyMag is back lol.



I've noticed we got variations in the Shea Souffle by Carol's Daughter and the Loofa Soap. But I got the same lipglosses?

Maybe we should list which ones we got??

Carol's Daughter:: Almond Cookie/Ecstacy

Loofa Soap:: Blood Orange/Peppermint <- not excited about this... I don't really like minty body products (unless it's toothpaste) I still haven't touched by Shea Terra thing because I got it in Menthe Cardonum...

Also now I have 3 of the bamboo shine sprays because I already got one from a Sephora... lol.

I should start a trade list. lol.
I didn't get any shipment emails. It was a total surprise getting them today AND being home for break when they hit my doorstep. It was like magic!!

Any movement on your box? Mine started moving yesterday.

Just checked.. I'm in Atl area and mine has nothing since the 11th saying shipping info received.

I don't expect to get it until the end of month. That's how it's been for the past 5 months.

Me too.  I've been getting my boxes later as well.  Not worried.  Just excited to see what's coming.

It's a really nice warm nude pink. Smells like strawberries and moisturizing. Works well with my NC30 Mac skin. 

I got a repeat :-( in the same color from 2 months ago: Radium. WHYYY ILLAMASQUA. WHY!! No one likes that color....and lucky me I have TWO. tears
Oh no...that nail color's a hard color to pull off.  And to get two, I wonder if you contact Glossybox, what they'd do.  You shouldn't have gotten the same color!

I'm trying to be chipper since I got 4 full size items in my box and I doubt they would do anything. 

Question for the R29 subbies: That sub is for Sept, Oct Nov but I know a few people were lucky enough to get the August box by mistake. What did GB do about that? 

 
For anyone that did the NYFW deal that got the July box this month, do you show that you are getting an October box too?  My GB account labels the box shipped as October but what I got was the July.  I don't have any other boxes listed to ship out to me.

Thanks!

 
I got the NYFW deal and got July box a few weeks ago and my Oct box came today. It had the heel cream again as a repeat for me. I really liked it though so I am ok with it.

Wow, don't you love these mail days! I had one like this, this week and it was so awesome! After a rough couple of days of dealing with all the "politics" of teaching Special Education, it was what I needed!

 
Hi all,

Just received my box and am disappointed honestly. The lipstick+gloss are ridiculous for my skin tone and have a mirror on them that you cannot use while applying the lipstick/gloss. What's the point of that?!

Also, I am not so happy with my feet/heel balm. I have no problem with my heels and why would I take care of them even more now in winter months. Wish I had the face peel.

If anyone's interested in the heel balm and wants to trade it for the enzyme facial peel, do let me know.

Thanks!

 
Yes, I tried the lipstick duo...and it's nicer than I expected. It's a very neutral warm brown (with peach tones), and the feel of the lipstick is fantastic!

I have blonde hair and medium skin tone btw, I usually don't wear brownish shades, but this one seems to work. Enjoy!
