PopSugar Special Edition Resort Box

[mpatt01]

Thought of something else to add, these bracelets are stretchy. I know there have been size concerns in the past. I think these will fit most wrists. Also, the epicurean smells so good. It smells like a picture of the tropics looks. If that made any sense at all. Lol. If you don't like the smell of coconut you probably won't like it. Word of warning, don't glad the mist too close to your face when you spray it. It was like a big shot to the face when I held it too close. Lol. The actual sprayer could be better. I was expecting a bottle like the evian water sprays. The clutch...I think it's smaller in person than it looks in the video. Still a nice size though. I can see myself using it with my longchamp bag a lot. Just to carry loose things.

It seems like the people answering the facebook account are not the customer service folks.  And for tracking customer service, there is likely a system in place that requires emails.  So, they would need communications to go through their tracking system so they ensure they are addressing it (even if it seems like it's taking a while) and also not duplicating responses through different channels.  It's all my guess.  But think that could be why it's always being driven back to email communications (different people on social media, and tracking requirements).

Ha ha that was my comment. They are absolutely ridiculous. I cancelled my subscription and am looking for a new box to subscribe to. Up for suggestions! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Fab fit fun is a great sub & the Nina Quarterly box is pretty cool too /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />.

Got my box (in PA).  I think the value of this box is really nice. I'm not sure I'd buy these things on my own, but I am excited for most of them. Bracelets are really nice quality and they look at lot different depending on how you pair them, which I like. I'm not usually a fan of stretchy, beaded turqoise bracelets but these looks a lot classier than what I was picturing. I like them a lot!

The towel is really nice. Soft, great size, will be great on a hot day in some soft sand. Its thin and funky, I like it! 

The taffy I havent tried, but I think it totally fits the theme. The eyeliner is more of a gold and blue (from what I saw) and I'm excited to try it as I like fun colors. 

Body wash is great. Really nice coconut smell and luxurious. I'm excited to try this! 

The clutch is cute. Sort of small, but I think I'll use it because I like the neutral, somewhat nautical colors. Still fits with the theme and is nice quality. 

Lastly, the mist. I havent tried it yet, but I like that its moisturizing. Maybe it will be something I can use after all?

Plan for tonight -- Shower with the body wash, towel off with the turkish towel, spray face with the mist, get ready for going out with some nice bracelets and some funky makeup. Maybe eat some taffy /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

Anyways, its worth the wait, really nice and useful items that fit the theme really well.

I ended up posting on their Facebook today also. I've sent 2 CS emails over the last few days with no reply, and they claim they haven't received either of them. I checked my outbox and email address etc is definitely correct.

 

[ladyroses]

I just sent an e-mail, we will see what happens:

 Can you please tell me when our Resort Boxes are shipping? They were suppost to ship March 31st, but I received an email saying sorry for the delay, but will ship today April 7th. It's 5:00 pm in Calif & no e-mail with the tracking # yet. Many ladies have already received their boxes. We all paid the same, why were some shipped before they were all ready. Also, some ladies have RECEIVED their April boxes & others have tracking #, When are both of my April boxes shipping?  Please let me know what is going on, Looking forward to hearning from you, Christy

 

[LetsGeaux]

THEY BOTH SHIPPED (APR/RESORT)

I'm so excited!!!!!

If they are the customer service folks, they need new customer service. I understand they need emails for tracking, but it looks awful. I imagine for Alisa, quite frustrating that they completely ignored her request and did the exact opposite. I worked for a company and the folks that handled social media was definitely different from us in the Customer Service department, but customers were always handled with the utmost respect and courtesy regardless of where they contacted us.

It bothered me, obviously enough that I had to post it here. Ridiculous! The response alone isn't bad, but when you put it in the context of your question it is actually quite disrespectful in my opinion.

Omg I WANT my resort box!! After days traveling around ca it made it to ct OnLy to go to MA today. Wth? I received my confirmation email saying my April box is on it's way. At this rate I'll have that before my resort box!

I did get mine today, and I will say it's work the $$ (and probably the wait).  The bracelets are spectacular -- the quality is so obvious when you feel them.  The towel is SO soft and luxurious.  I've already played with the eyeliner, and it's fun and great quality (not sure of staying power, though!).  The taffy is great, and the candy shop down the street from my apartment sells it when I need more... yay! The mist is lovely and the body wash smells great.

I'm also really into the clutch, and will be taking the cues over everyone else and adding a curb chain!! Can't wait to use it all on vacation! I'm so happy I got a second box, so I can stack my bracelets and use two towels (I will not be sharing with hubby).  The other duplicates will make great gifts!
Just curious, how would you describe the Epicuren Lave body wash scent?  Tropical?  Coconut?  I haven't received mine yet.

My shipping notice came on Saturday 04/05 (for the 2 resort boxes).  My account on the POPSUGAR site says it shipped on Saturday 04/05.  The link to Fedex says shipping information sent Friday 04/04.  I am anxiously waiting for these boxes.  I can't wait to see the items in person.

Coconut for sure. It has hints of tropical, but you are mostly left with coconut smell. Luckily I didn't think it was over powering and a lot went a long way.

Thank you!!

I got my box and love what's in it. The clutch had some gloppy paint on the M of the lettering ( would not care if it weren't visible but it's the logo so it's noticeable and the paint might come off sooner). I emailed ps about exchanging it.

Also the eyeliner is my former school colors (UCSB) so I like it for that reason /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[DevinMcWhite]

ok, so my tracking says my bag is in my city and "In Transit" and it never got to me today. My box comes to my job so I was looking for it all day, nerve-wracking to say the least. I'm hoping to have it tomorrow. My office is a little chilly and I think the towel will make a nice lap blanket. I got my notification for my Apr box as well. It's my last one in 2 - 3 month subs. I was going to keep it going, but the coupon codes every month annoyed me. What's the point in buying a 3 or 6 month sub and saving like 10 bucks when there's a coupon code EVERY MONTH for 10 dollars off at least? So I unsubbed and Ill just wait for some good spoilers and coupons.

It looks like the lettering overall will wear off.  I hope PS is able to replace it for you.

I like the idea of the colors matching school colors.  My kids school (elementary) is blue and gold.  The eyeliner may be used for face paint if I don't use it this spring/summer.

If anyone is interested, you can buy the chain directly from RB of McD via email for $13.95 including shipping. Not bad at all! Just email customer service at [email protected] They have been awesome with customer service!!

 

[Mrs30009]

My Resort boxes are on the move!  They were picked up and are at the Fedex in Watsonville, CA.  Yay!

 

[hazeleyes]

Got my shipment email today with tomorrows date. Not even going to complain, so tired of waiting at this point I just want my box! I hope after this long of a wait there isn't an issue with my clutch either!
