I didn't win, but I hope I get to subscribe soon! This box looks great, and I hope they can stay consistent with this level of products. They really HAVE to at that price.

I havent received shipping confirmation yet. I am from California.

Did it say how many days it is in transit? I hope to receive it before we travel again. I am excited!

 
I don't know if someone else said this yet but check out the website! They updated it and it looks sooooo different. You can create an account now and subscribe to their newsletter to receive updates when they open their shop. According to the website they will open the shop for a limited time each month so if you are subscribed you will always find out when it's open. I put my email in their old website to receive updates and I never received an update to check out the new website, so I wanted to be safe rather than sorry so I signed up on their new website just because I really really want to subscribe and I don't want to miss out.

Based on that, presuming decent sizing and that it's actually "one of each", not "some of these are 'OR items'", it may well be worth the $21

 
Another comment on the free box. It seems all of the items were full sized? They all looked fs to me. Correct me if I am wrong when you all get the boxes. I have heard that GB in other countries all have at least one fs item per box. That may be the reason for the 21.00/ month price tag.

EDIT: I am basing my observation on the blog link posted by feelingrealtan on this page. 

 
All but the "skin care collection", according to the blogger.

I don't anticipate that each month will be all fs, however, even though the other countries with GB do seem to have more FS in them than in most of the US boxes from other companies. Still, this was a box to get buzz...I expect it to be "better" than the actual ones.

And I will add this: The items with color were pretty much neutral colors, which is not necessarily a bad thing, as that is one way to appeal to the broadest spectrum without having to have multiple options.

 
They were all full size! I've already checked out multiple reviews. Pretty much exactly what you see on the GlossyBox website is what they got! 

 
I got the confirmation today as well!! So excited, this is definatly an AWESOME birthday gift!!! :DDDD

 
Mine should be here today!! It is at my post office, so if not today, tomorrow. Pls change to out for delivery hehehehe.

 
I may be the first, but I was not impressed with this box. Given the hype and it being the first box, I was anticipating more. I feel people get caught up with the value of the box & not the actual usage of its contents. I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer, but I'd rather take my $21 & purchase something I'd want. Personally, I wouldn't consider OPI the "crème de la crème of international brands". Additionally, the CO Bigelow was recently in a Birchbox. Sorry guys, but for me they did not deliver to the hype they built. I guess you'd have to think of it this way: 1 month of Glossybox or 2 months of Birchbox/MyGlam (with a $1 to spare). I'm chosing the latter because you not only get more products, but an additional month of excitement for the arrival of your next beauty parcel.

Thats pretty much what I said in my post on the last page or so. You are not the only one :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> And you arent being a downer, just stating your opinion. I would take it if its free though, so the difference is handing over money for it. I will still subscribe, at least for the first few months and see how it goes. But I agree that 2 BBs could potentially be a better deal, depending on the products. But BB boxes sometimes are crappy too, so we wont know until we try both and compare.
