Leilani, what browser are you using? Are you using the HTML editor or the BB editor to post?

 
I see they took out the product listing in the shipping email, which is kind of neat that they listened to people on that one.

VERY underwhelmed by this month's box.

 The only thing that saves it for me is being able to use that $15 coupon on Stila.

.
I'm going to use it to buy my mom their bb cream for mother's day since she borrowed mine while I was visiting and loved it, and I'll send her something else small in the order too of course.

I'm using Google Chrome, and is it sad that I don't know which one of those I'm using to post? LOL. 

 
I'm not too excited about the Alterna UV+ Color Fade Proof Fluide Deluxe Sample since my hair is it's natural color and the striventin I already have from TT :/

 
Here's a ScreenShot of my May Dashboard:



I looked up the 'highlighted' Bon Bon and it's a fragrance
I am excited!

I just noticed the travel puff we are getting in our boxes is sold on the BeautyBar website for 10.00. Woa. And it says: Each puff contains 10-20 applications for multiple uses. Once empty, use for other makeup applications.

Oh! well that makes this a little more interesting, though I don't use much powder.

Yeah I thought I wanted this sample but just realized its for colored hair too. I stopped that a long time ago. I guess most of my box will be up for trade!

 
I just got an email that spots are now open for this sub. But I can't find any FAQs on the site specifically about the sample society (not just the website store). So, if I can ask here. What time of month do they ship? And do you guys like this program? I'm subbed to Birchbox(2), MyGlam, Green Grab Bag, Julep Maven, GoodeBox, and Beauty Army already. Is this one also necessary (ya know, for a beauty addict) ? Thanks :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

They ship early in the month (I got my ship notice today, and shipping is FAST). I don't think its necessary (I have bb, julep, and BA and this one at this point), but it is fun and comes with a 15 off 50 purchase at beautybar.com.

I wonder how many we are going to get. On the Bond No. 9 website they sell 6 samples for $15.00

I agree that its not necessary, and if I subscribe to Glossybox, this one will **probably** be cut. But I like the deluxe samples (they last anywhere from a few weeks to a few months) and they seem to really do their research and dont just send crappy samples of things no one wants to buy. Case in point- they sent out the Mirad primer last month and its already sold out on their website. So a lot of ppl obvoiusly liked it enough to use the $15.00 coupon.
 
I agree with all the posts! I'm really enjoying SS so far and the deluxe samples. Also, I heard that some of the coupon codes are stackable, which I like. So I'm sticking with it. Besides, one can always swap!

They also sent out dermalogica which I'm obsessed with, along with the rest of the population lol.

Yep, that will forever be a product I use. Love that stuff! Ended up with 3 extras from trades, but when I am all out, I will def purchase it.
 
Okay so I just came here to say that Sample Society has AMAZING customer service.  I received a e-mail from them last week saying that there was a problem with my card and to go and fix it as to ensure I would receive the May box.  Well I checked my bank account and there was a charge from Sample Society for the usual $15.  Well when I checked my Sample Society account today it said my next box would ship June 1 and showed no order for May.  Well, I realized that I had changed my billing address with my bank but had failed to do so with Sample Society hence the issue.  So I contacted Sample Society and spoke with Michelle who was so awesome and helpful.  She put me on a conference call with my bank and we got everything sorted out.  She would not let them off the phone until she knew for sure we wouldn't have this issue again and that I wouldn't be unenrolled with SS because of it.  :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Simply amazing.  Customer service like this is unheard of.
