Glossybox USA! - April & May discussion

[yousoldtheworld]

Okay, I said I wouldn't pay that much for a sub, but after watching the reviews...maybe I will, LOL.  I just hope future boxes are as awesome!

Yep, mine came to about $84 without the Erno Laszlo samples - wish there was at least a weight on them...it is driving me CRAZY! haha

Thanks for the great photo! I am so excited. I have read that the products are the same for the boxes, but are there any color variations so far on the lipgloss or the nail polish? I am in CA, so I expect mine to take a little while to get here.

Yay! I have been secretly waiting for your review as I have been stalking your blog for awhile...jk lol But I love your reviews.

The polish looks great on you! I can't wait to see mine soon.

They are all the same colors, I believe it's 6 items out of 7 in the box. The other one should be a lotion (oops).

I can't resist joining after seeing so many wonderful reviews. I'm so impressed by the contents of this box. I just can't bring myself to rack up a bill on subscription services a month. I'm already a part of My Glam and Birch Box. Glossy Box would kind of burst at the seams of my monthly beauty budget, given the price. I'm signing up as soon as I can, but I'll be dropping a sub for sure if Glossy Box consistently amazes me. That introductory box alone is amazing! What a tease. lol. And I love that nail polish!! OPI is my favorite brand. <3

haha V Im going crazy too. Normally I contact companies when there is no weight cause Im so anal. I already contacted asking if their products contain animal ingredients, so if I get an actual response I'll ask about the sample weights. I bet they are like you figured $10-15 bucks of value since they are so darn expensive!

And thank you everyone! Im happy that you all enjoy my blog!! 

I saw on the website that they have a body lotion instead of the shampoo, but I haven't see anyone get it. But the lip gloss is all the same color. It's funny that they say its a special color just for glossybox USA and Kryolan's entry into the US market, but I saw it for sale on the Kryolan AU website and it was featured last year in a Glossybox. hrm... don't lie to me glossybox, you know Ill investigate!

I received my box today and everything was the same except I got the body lotion instead of the shampoo. The body lotions smells awesome! The consistency is a little thin, but it goes on really smooth and seems to hydrate pretty well.

I think it's a wonderful box. I think almost everything will go to use, and if I had spent 21$ I'd have been satisfied. I don't usually think about the monetary value of a box... I just base it on, well, did I like it or didn't I? If the items retail for 80 bucks but I don't like anything, it's not really "worth" 80 bucks. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have seen pictures of people getting both the lotion and shampoo....somewhere around page 14? But no lip gloss. The lotion would probably smell super good, I LOOOOVE lavender and peppermint.

I think my box is lost.  It's still showing NJ!  I live in Utah and I'm dying for this box!  Grrrr....

I... I missed my bus to school and just got my glossy box while waiting for the next bus at home!! LOL

I got the nail polish, too, but I do not use nail polish, I might have to trade it out.

Here's my dilemma...I want to see how a couple boxes go before I sign up for a $21 subscription box. However, Im sure if i don't get in right off the bat there will be a waiting list. I can't decide if I should sign up or not!

Subs will always open up even if they sell out, it's just how quick will they open up /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> lol

Hi everyone! I have a question and hope someone would be able to clarify...I heard about Glossybox USA and I went to their website to sign up with their newsletter, so they can let me know when a spot opens up. I was wondering when the they started accepting sign ups, coz some of you have already received your first box, but when I did some searching online, I got the impression that they just started accepting sign ups...so a little confused here...

They haven't started sign ups yet the first box was won in a contest held on their Facebook page and on their website.  However subscription should open in the next few weeks hopefully, as far as I know nobody has been notified of being able to officially sign up for glossy box yet!

Hope this helped clear things up!

They said they would open subscriptions in May however they did NOT say the first box would be sent in June, but I think most of us really want a June box /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Oh yes! It looks like all the products in the boxes posted by others are full sized, but I wonder if they would really send out full sized products in subscription boxes or if it were only for these boxes. $21/month does seem a little steep for subscription services, so I am curious to know what kind of samples would be in them and the size of these samples...anyone knows anything about this?
