Hi guys, I'm a newbie here.

Got my second SS box today.

Am I the only one who thinks the diptyque perfume smells horrible? it smells like old perfume.

oh noo..i'm curious about it..what does it smell like? Any similar fragrance?

I'm so excited that I re-subbed! I am really hoping I get the liner in Kitten, because I have that color of eyeshadow and really love it. Their eyeshadows are a little too powdery for me, but I love them so this would be nice to have because then I could use it under.

The products all look really good!

I got my box! I actually really like the diptyque perfume, it smells like lilies and grass and water on me. Very fresh. Uploading pics and review tomorrow!

I like my perfume too, but to me, it smelled incense-y and exotic.  Very different than anything I normally wear, but I found it kind of interesting.  My scent was Eau Duelle.  Is everyone getting the same?

  I received the Vetyverio scent.  It has a woodsy smell which is not really my thing. I like floral scents but I love everything else in my box. Sample Society is my favorite subscription service.

I just got my box, and LOVE the perfume.(I got Tam Dao) I'll never be able to afford the FS one.

I got the black Stila crayon, and am 100 % thrilled with this box.

Why oh why can't everyone have their distribution centers in California. Always takes a decade to get my box lol

I know!!!!!!!!!!! Waiting for all of my subscriptions to come out west is so rough when everyone else is already playing with their goods! 

 

[Pellen]

Anyone else ever get a knife out to cut the tape on their SS box just to realize that oh yeah, they put the nice little pull tab on it... LOL! Just got my box about to dive in!!!

 

[FormosaHoney]

My Stila Smudge Stick was 'smoke' kind of a rose-gold-copper shimmer, very pretty, matches the BB rose-gold nail color, just a shade darker.  I wasn't too thrilled at first, then I love it.  I'm just beginning to differntiate between day and night wear.  This is good day wear, provides a little polish without the night-club dark eyes.

My D perfume is Phylosykos, very green fig scent, fun!  Good for the days when you are off to the wine country or just want to smell like you just returned from a fig farm!

SS yay!!

OMG I just choked on my iced tea reading that. I don't think I have ever thought "Hmm, today I want to smell like I have just returned from the fig farm". Haha so cute and funny.

I will be happy with all products most likely but I just REALLY dont want the black smudge stick. I dont do smokey eyes so I have no use for it. I will definitely try to trade that if I get it.

lol i did that last month

 

[Pellen]

Sweet!!!! I got the Borghese in fiore, the stilla in Umber, and the Diptyque in Eau Duelle (I am in LURRRRVEEEE!)!!!

 

[sprite9034]

Gah, the anticipation is killlling me- My box is out for delivery.

I'm crazy hoping to get the smudge stick in any color but Rose- I just can't rock a lighter pink like that. And I have super high hopes for the Diptyque- I usually prefer woodier/ muskier scents, and so many of these seem to be something I would like.

[MissLindaJean]

I'm curious about what perfume I'll get; I'm all over the board from a sugary sweet to sexy musk scent! I'll probably be satisfied, since I'm easy to please in the olfactory department haha.

Looks like I got the same box. I adore the perfume, and have been wanting this brand forever. Tam Dao has a very interesting peppery note in it. Oh, if only SS had BB-style points!

The lip gloss shade (Fiore) is very close to my own color, so great for every day. I would have preferred a color other than black for the smudge crayon, but I'll use it along with everything else in this box. Very happy and glad I didn't spoil myself this time. The only problem is figuring out which products to buy with the code. SS knocked it out of the park again!!!

 

[zombielovrr]

I got the Stila crayon in smoke and I want a full size now. it is the prettiest taupey bronze color that works perfectly with my eyes!
