Le Metier De Beaute Beauty Vault VIP - Spoilers

[kitnmitns]

I cannot justify spending the money, especially given the stockpile I have. Had this subscription cropped up during my WANT MORE! phase it would be a different story. I am actually really proud I have held back. I died when I saw they added spots though ;-)

I haven't gotten an order confirmation yet, which makes me kinda nervous. When I log into the website it shows up though so I guess that's good enough.

Ladies, for anyone who missed their chance to sign up for the beauty vault, I just received an email from LMdB saying they are re-opening the beauty vault for 50 new subscribers!! The only catch is that the August box will ship with October.

I just signed up!!! I am beyond excited right now!! I was one of those people who was indecisive up until the last minute, and then decided after the July 31st deadline that I wanted it, and so emailed them, but was too late. I am so grateful to LMdB right now!!! EEEEEK!

Sorry for the ramble, but this is just such an amazing opportunity!

Thanks for the heads up.  I just signed up since I too decided 1 day too late when it was first launched.  Thank goodness for Bill Me Later, haha.

I remember going through the same thing and logging into the site to make sure it was there.  It's just how their site works, it seems.

So excited for everyone who got to sign up in the second round!  I've been LOVING the Noir eye liner and the brush - use them every day

I just got my shipping notification from UPS! Scheduled for delivery 8/23! I definitely wasn't expecting it so soon! Can't wait to see what this box brings!

And time for a PSA! LMdB did not send out shipping notices last month, so make sure to sign up for UPS MyChoice if you want a heads-up on these packages.

Is this for the September box? It seems a bit early for that to be sent out, but I'm one of the late subscribers so I have no idea when my first box shall arrive but I'm anxiously awaiting it!! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I did it! I cancelled my other subs and signed up! I'm so excited. I was hesitant to cancel Ipsy and Birchbox because I enjoy the sneak peeks and whatnot on MUT, but the shipping issues with Ipsy and the fact that I still don't have my August BB or a working tracking number made me realize that this will be much more worth it. I also cancelled Goodies, so my sub cost is pretty much the same.

 

[tazdvil]

I got a notification too but didn't realize who it was from. Sure enough, it's lmdb!

 

[chocolatte]

So excited that you ladies are getting shipment notifications so soon! I just signed up so I'm guessing mine will be coming a little later. But I can't wait to see spoilers in the next couple of days to see what I have to look forward to!

I just got a follow up email from UPS: "We previously sent you a delivery alert for the package(s) shown below, based on information we received from the shipper. We have not yet received the package from the shipper, so it will not be delivered as originally scheduled. At this time, we are unable to provide you with a new delivery date and apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Updated delivery information will be provided once we receive the package from the shipper." Darn!

 

[Playedinloops]

Yeah same thing happened last month, I think they don't have the same kind of facilities we are used to with our boxes so they start printing labels a few days ahead of time.

 

[Antidentite]

I really don't need to sign up for this but I am super tempted...I guess I could always sell the items on ebay if I start regretting it...

 

[Shauna999]

I gave up glossybox, ipsy, & birchbox for LMdB - this sub is so much better than the other 3 combined. We all deserve the best of the best & that's what this sub is- its the ULTIMATE Beauty Sub. Sign up- you'll be sooo happy you did!!

Sitting this one out due to the annual upfront cost.

I probably would sub if there was an option to select products in a particular shade. I am most interested in the powders, concealers and foundations from this brand, and unless I can specify very pale shades, it would not work for me...But I am sure I will be very jealous and excited to see what everyone is getting!

Other than Birchbox that I prepaid for one year, and PopSugar that I renew every 3 months, I am saying good bye to the subs due to my huge amount of products I already have to try or give away. I will try to stick to the occasional cosmetic GWP (like the awesome Clinique one starting at Bloomingdale's next week!), but no more surprises!

I believe LMdB specified that they would not be sending items like foundation due to the customization issue.  Not sure about concealers/powders, as I'm assuming those come in a smaller color range.

Where did you get the information that the August box wouldn't ship util October for the new subscribers?

 

[tazdvil]

Sounds like new subscribers will get the boxes that early subscribers got. The extra kabuki brush is the only real questionable item, unless the email says different. This is just how I understand it, as the way people are describing it.

 

[chocolatte]

Here's the email I got from them on Wednesday, just to clear things up: "Dear Le Metier de Beaute Fans, Since August 1st, we have been swamped with emails and messages through social media from fans who were unable to sign up in time for the LMDB Beauty Vault VIP program. So we have decided to open 50, only 50, VIP subscriptions to new customers between now and August 31, 2013. These subscriptions will feature the August box, which will ship with the October shipment, to new customers. So you will not miss a month, just need to wait until October for the August box (but you get two boxes in one month!). You are being given an early opportunity to grab one of these 50 openings because you expressed interest in signing up. The link below is live for you to purchase. Starting on Sunday night, the 50 boxes open up to all LMDB fans. http://www.lemetierdebeaute.com/products/beauty-vault-vip XO LMdB"
