I can't get over how upset I am.. do I have issues? Lol I had to cancel my Nina Garcia for this box, and now I am extremely sad over it. We just got a picture frame and candle! Just had to throw that out there as well. I will stop whining now, but I am really disappointed with the huge amount of money I spent on this.

 
I know I'm in the minority here, but I really like the box. I guess it depends on what you are into. I'm a long time fan of Clare Vivier & I adore anything Missoni. I'm excited to get the clutch, the candle I will not hesitate to burn & when it is all gone, I'll have a chic little pen holder for my desk that I will love. I'm redoing my home office all in white with silver accents so that pop of color will be perfect. The box & frame will also work for my desk or anywhere else in my home. The chocolate will make a nice gift. I would not pay retail for the candle or the frame, but at $31 per item, I'm happy.

I do wish they had included more home items or fashion instead of 3 beauty items & I already have a fave skin cream (Creme Divine by L'Occitane). I do think last year's box was better curated & more holiday themed, but I don't regret the box at all. I'm hopping when it's in my hands that I'll love the items even more.
PopSugar has let me down in the past with their last two or three LE boxes; I really loved the first NM Box and this one is okay.  Didn't get it yet and still debating.  As an aside Angela I really miss seeing your new YT videos:)

Yes Dr. Lancer is a dermatologist with a practice in Beverly Hills.  I started hearing about celebs talking about him recently and picked up his book but wasnt ready to splurge on his products so I am excited to try it (secretly I hope I hate it lol but I have a feeling I m going to have splurge).  His method is composed of 3 steps Polish, Cleanse , & Nourish so we are getting the last step.  If anyone is interesting his book is called 

YOUNGER: THE BREAKTHROUGH ANTI-AGING METHOD FOR RADIANT SKINFor more info on Dr. Lancer and is method here is his website: http://www.lancerskincare.com/doctor-lancer-method

Hope that helped!
thank you!

This is how I felt with that last LE box that came in September?  The September monthly box was so much better; for so much less.  I still haven't done anything with that box.  lol

Oh no! You cancelled Nina?? For this?? I'm sending you a virtial hug right now. I am hugely disappointed as well. Maybe you'll be able to trade for some of Nina s items. :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
 
thank you!
We/I got samples of the Lancer product in the GB themed LE box.  It's good!  I just don't need anymore lotion right now.  Thanks to Memebox. I wish they would have added an eyeshadow palette or some high named universal makeup - like that Stila Palette from years back.

 
I have used this exact cream and loved it.  Its very moisturizing and also works great on very dry skin patches .   I use lancer products every since getting them in glossybox.   They are great expensive but great.

Thank you. You are so kind. I will eventually come back. I just needed to take some time off for my family & some personal things I needed time for. It's really nice to be missed. I miss the community very much.

I do hope you really love your box once you have it in your hands. Or hopefully you can trade/sell the items you don't want to make your box perfect.

I'm so sorry you had to cancel your Nina box! hopefully you can trade for some items. I usually put some Nina items up as do others.

Oh my gosh, I have been debating about canceling Nina all night, because I spent so much on this, and am so disappointed, and I don't want to waste anymore money (I know you can send Quarterly back if you don't like it). I just don't know about putting anymore money out, ughhhhh.
 
I am really disappointed too. THIS is all I get for $250? Really? On Monday, from Rue La La, I bought 3 pairs of AG jeans and a pair of Citizen jeans for just under $200, and THIS is all I get from this box? I feel hugely ripped off, especially by the mascara and lipgloss. There are two items that I flat out do not even WANT and it's mascara and lipgloss. If there was any possible way to return this box, I would do it in a heartbeat! For $250 I could have made out with much better treasures from any flash sale website. Especially since I spent $272 on this box after sales tax. 

 
I guess I'm in the minority but I actually love the box! I agree that I would have loved to see some jewelry, but I will actually keep/use every item in this box. I can't wait to receive it!

 
I really like this box...BUT I don't love it enough to spend $250 on it. I think the clutch looks beautiful & I ADORE that Missoni candle! I also think the mirrored box is beautiful. Those are the only items that really interest me. I hope everyone who purchased this loves it more in person. Trying to be positive!

 
I am honestly glad I didn't buy the box, I ended up getting stuff from Sephora instead. But I will say that I really really love that silver mirrored box. I think it's gorgeous!
I don't think it's silver. i think it's white with mirrors on edge.  AT least that's how the photo looks to me.

 
I would like to thank my impending student loans from stopping me to make this jump.

I might find this useful and worth it if I ever earn a million dollars an month but I am so happy I skipped this box. And any special edition box by popsugar for that matter.
