My box arrived this morning and the soap had broken and got into EVERYTHING! Somehow it even got into the fabric lining of the jewelmint purse! Now I have to email pop sugar and ask for a refund :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
Oh WOW!!! Same thing happened to mine!

Not everthing was destroyed in mine though.  My soap of course, the pump on my lotion was messed up from all the gunk that got in,  and I'm just not sure about eating the chocolate now.  The soap got on everything else and all of the packaging was super gross, but all of the other stuff can be cleaned off.  I've already contacted Popsugar and they got back to me right away and were really apologetic.  I just had to send pics.  The glass on that soap is super thick, so I was surprised that it was broken.

Well just filed a report with USPS, package show delivered on the 19th but I never got it, guessing it was stolen or never delivered in the first place. This makes me so sad, I was really excited about it and now looks like I am out $100 :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Worst case scenario if Popsugar doesn't do anything, contact your credit card company. They will give you a refund.

Yay!  I'm so happy you're thrilled with your box.   I just got a call from FedEx and mine should arrive tomorrow or Monday at the latest.  I'm so excited!

I think u will love it!!
 
Had to go to the post office today to pick mine up. Was thinking about waiting until I got back from vacation to open it, but couldn't help myself. I'm neither super happy nor super disappointed with my haul. I got:

  The three- variety box of Vosges chocolate Deborah Lippmann - Naked
Soap - Mediterranean 
Lotion - Orange Blossom
Gold cuff - I already have a gold cuff, so one of them is going goodbye.
Candle in grapefruit cucumber
Silver mesh purse - I kind of like this, but really wish I could cram my phone into it.
  I'm just really glad I didn't get anything in lavender. I love the smell, but it makes me sneeze like you wouldn't believe.

 
 
I got my box and at first i was thrilled and then i realized that the soap had spilled everywhere.  Disappointed and I got a clutch that i don't really care for it.  Everything else was ok and it actually looked more like a regular box than a luxury box. :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> oh well 

 
I also got:

The three- variety box of Vosges chocolate
Deborah Lippmann - Dark plum colored set
Soap - Lavender
Lotion - French Lavender
Gold cuff - seems to me a little small-ish
Candle in Rose
Silver mesh purse "The Robot Bladder" one 
I love all the scents, the colors are fine, too. I think more variety would be more exciting, it just seems more

beauty and home
related. The last item - don't know yet if I like it or not.

 
I got the silver mesh bag- it's super cute but I'm not sure if I have a use for it. Ahhh back some years ago I used to go to Vegas 3-4 times a year- this is a perfect Vegas bag- I wish I had it during that 3 year crazy stint in my life before I met my husband. Please keep all trade talk to B/S/T. Another note- I was a little- a tiny bit- disappointed with this box, I think my expectations were through the roof, I was hoping for the September must have box on steroids- I thought it was a realistic goal but maybe not..lol! Overall, I did enjoy the items- I'm just not into jewel mint and it seems like it was half the box. I'm totally in on the next luxury box though- how much longer do I have to wait, A complete addiction, I have a problem!!!

I was similarly disappointed. I actually liked September's box a lot more. Is that weird of me? However, I'm also very on board for the next luxury box. They have to do something much different (no more candles, clutches, lotion, soap--these are basically my nightmare luxury items) so I'm bound to like it a lot more.

 
Does anyone else think it's ridiculous that one of the items was a

French hand soap?
Like seriously...I don't need or want that. I would've rather had something cooler, but I'll still use it. Overall I like the box, I'm not going to complain, but I probably won't ever get another one.

Yeah, I hated that too. I tried mine and it's honestly not very nice. Just your typical liquid soap. Nicer than at a gas station or something obviously but I would never say "wow, this is luxurious!" I would have rather had a couple bottles of Bath and Body Works hand soap (or something cool that I don't already purchase several times a year)
 
I haven't peeked at any of the spoilers but wanted to post that my box isn't scheduled to get to me until January 4th. I received an email from PS (without me emailing them to complain...I was at least going to wait until after Christmas to email them) saying they would comp my January box. Nice of them to do so!

 
I still dont have either of my luxury boxes. One said it would be here yesterday but still says its in ca. My other is due to arrive at my post office on the 24th meaning they won't sort and deliver till later next week. I don't know why I bother. I was hoping for a surprise but spoilers are every where. Just smh. Not smh to u guys but to FedEx and USPS for once again ruining things.

 
My box arrive today.  My awesome postman drove it right up to my door. I'm so so so so thrilled with this box.  It's amazing in every way.

Here's my variations:

Jewelmint "clutch"  silver mesh bag - the one I really wanted! 
Epicuren moisturizer: Tahitian Vanilla, I love vanilla scents so I'm really pleased with this scent.
Vosges Mini Chocolate bar Library:  I got the nice different flavors!  I must have lucked out.  Bacon here I come!
Compagnie de Provence: Olive and Lavender, like vanilla I love lavender! 
Tocca:  Kyoto which is Peach/Apricot again, I just love peach and apricot scents in candles - so fresh smelling.  I've been wanting a Tocca candle for years after seeing them in magazines forever.  This is so perfect for me.
Cuff: Same as everyone else
Lippman:  Set is called Love Notes:  Red and Red.  Again perfect for me and the holidays.  I just tossed my favorite red OPI polish since it spilled everywhere.  I'm so happy to have a pretty red to replace it.  Nail color is "My Old Flame" Lip color is "Let's Do It"

Here's a crummy picture:


A few notes:

The "clutch" is pretty delicate.  I love it but one of the screws fell out when I first opened it.  It still works perfectly, but I could see the constant opening and closing of this to cause it to break further.  It's def a "party purse" but I might just leave or carry it open or partially open to keep the hinges from wearing too much.  But honestly this is the purse I wanted so I'm very happy with it.

My soap did leak a little like others mentioned.  The pump is also not so great on this bottle, I don't know if mine is bent, but it's just not a smooth pump.  But I have other soap pumps and work at B&BW so I can easily buy another pump or use one from another bottle.  I only had minimal soap loss and it didn't ruin anything in my box.  I love the glass bottle and would probably refill it with liquid soap or maybe put an oil drainer/topper on top and use it for dish soap after I use the hand soap. 

My cuff was bent.  I was able to hammer it into shape to fit me.  I just put the velvet case over the hammer and smoothed out the wrinkle.  lol.  The cuff it probably my least favorite item of the box.  It's a party piece for sure!

 
 
My shipping info is saying that expected delivery is the 27th. Ugh. My box has been in Housron 3 hrs away for 2 days now.
