OuiPlease [spoilers]

[Geek2]

My family is from france.  I have lived there  and know the country well.  I go there often and my parents have a second home there  in south france.  I personally don't think the items match exactly the area. Some items are from that area and some are not. However I do feel that most items I get are nice quality. I just wish I got  more than 150 dollar  retail value.   I am excited my next box will be here this week.

@ ooh sounds wonderful! I'd love to go to France. It's one of the countries I never got to go to even when I still lived in Finland. I love France and the food and the culture in general. Not to even mentioning the French beauty products. France sounds like beauty heaven to me. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20">

it was supposed to be provence this time right? im sorry, am i the only one that just isnt getting excietd about this one anymore? the point isnt to just be somewhat satisfied, i thought the point was excitement not dread. i rather go to france and save my money then have department store creams and candies sent on repeat. why do i feel so alone saying that haha.

Same here, I am french and this box is all over the place. The french Riviera topic is not really there, more just french products in general. And it wouldn't have been very hard to do, so many products in each region... and adding something made in the US is just bad for a box that claims to be international.

Last box was Provence and this one French Riviera, very similar area so expect similar items, which is not very exciting either. For example, La Fare, well we had that in the last box and seems to be in this one too, it is from Provence, "Lulu" as well. Kingies is from Paris and so is Sothys and Doux me, Pier Auge is from central France. Graine de Pastel is south in general. Objets obscurs is a designer but nothing to do with Riviera.

They are all over the place, I am still not over all the lies from the last box, between lost items, then customs, then sent, then not sent...It is just plain bad customer service.

I have no problems with a french box, it is nice to get items from home but honesty is key.

Anyone else without tracking number?

they don't reply to emails... missing tracking too 

 

[Shauna999]

I got an email from my fedex tracking-- mine is due to arrive Wednesday-- I still haven't received tracking from Ouiplease... Thinking about it, I don't think I received a tracking email from them last time either.

I'm staying hopeful /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Sorry @@Shauna999 - hopefully it will be worth the wait!

I received both of my boxes and while the creams are similar a few of the "larger" items are different - I think that they take into consideration that it's two boxes and probably vary them.  Box 1 included a tote and Box 2 had a beach towel and enamel ring.

Some quick pictures

Love the tote.

 

[Shauna999]

Thanks @@MET!! I hope you like your boxes /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I love all your pictures... I really hope I get that beach towel... So Cute!!!

I've been very lucky with this subscription and always love my boxes - I also have so many women in the family that I get to share all the products with.

My box was delivered today, now all I have to do is get home from the east coast tonight and open it!

 

[emf999]

This stupid box is going to drive me crazy. After all of the (and I'm being kind) miscommunications and lost packages from the last box, the confusion continues. I did receive an email last week but according to Fedex tracking, it has not yet been dispatched. Seriously? I'm sure too that once it arrives that I'll be scratching my head wondering what I dropped $150 on. Next time I'll just set fire to my money. Might be more productive.

On that subject, did anyone notice that the box is timed to arrive just before or just after the next monthly subscription payment is due?

My box will be here on Wednesday.. I am so hoping for that tote. I don't mind all the creams and lotions at all since I used them .

OuiPlease simply lies on their product prices. Everything is way inflated. I calculated it to be more like $330, but I'd say it's way less than that even.

Slap in the face to say those coasters are $20. Ridiculous.

Wish I had gotten the tote... love the towel. T-Shirt is too small and.. has a stain.

Sigh... gotta contact them again.

My box was waiting for me when I got home from my cross-country flight last night. I got the same items, so far as I can tell, as Wendy whose photo is posted on MSA, except my clutch is cappuccino colored. I like the bracelet, it's delicate but not dainty if that makes sense. I will use all these products and although the t-shirt is a size M and would probably fit a 10-year-old (e.g. not me), and although I probably would have preferred the hair scarf or beach bag, I'm fine with it. It's not a $425 value as their invoice claims, but it's worth more to me than what I paid, and I'm excited to try some of the new items, especially the sun cream, as I live in the desert near Las Vegas.

(Did anyone get anything other than the lemon nougat candy? And is anyone looking for this lovely t-shirt in size "M"?)

EDIT: Forgot to mention, in the booklet there was a 20% off coupon for Pier Auge products purchased through Amazon, good through Oct. 15. I just tested it out and it works.

@@DianeER Thanks for posting pics.

I actually really like that bracelet!

I got a pink enamel hair clip instead, /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I really hope that you liked everything else (and maybe can use the hair clip)!

I have tried both of the Graine de Pastel creams and think that they are wonderful - my skin feels so smooth and I like the scent too.

I actually could really use a hair clip...

Pink is just not a color for me though.

Everything else was nice though. However 3 creams was a bit excessive. 4 if you count the hand creme!

 

[Saffyra]

Dangit! My box needs to get a move on! I'm excited to see my variations.

 

[Cupcakes]

Wow, it took a whole week for them to pickup my box.  They originally had it schedule delivery for today but now it looks like Friday.  Crossing my fingers it gets here on Friday and that I love all the items in it.

Similar for me. Labeled created last Thursday with a delivery date of today. Just started moving and delivery is now Friday.
