Sindulge Discussion

[crazyawesomelvn]

I like many others cannot believe how different the value of the boxes are  whether they listened or not there should not be such a difference in the value some boxes full of full sized products and some of us only one time use samples. I have not had my consultation yet, but they have never attempted to set it up either, they kept sending emails saying that they were behind in consults and would be sending out everybodys boxes by the 16th and catch up later.... when I didnt get a shipping notice after that and no box after wednesday, waited that long because I am in southern california as they are and if it was sent should get here the next day maybe two but no more.  I had to send 3 emails and used there contact us form which wouldnt let me send more than one , said only one per person????  really????  I finally got an email from the same person who sent me the unsolicited email explaining that all boxes would be sent and consultations later, telling me that the reason I had not yet gotten shipping notice was because I had not yet had my consult, again really?????  

I was told that my box would ship this week and I should get a shipping notice, since I asked for one, again really???????  

Still no notice, but today I went to my mailbox and there in the box was my box from them, knew by feeling it it was not much, but when I opened it to find the following:

Youngblood eye Impact quick recovery cream 0.01oz or 3ml

Pixi flawless & poreless pore reducing primer 0.5oz or 15ml

Youngblood mineral primer 0.17oz or 5ml

Pixi Eye Bright Primer  0.06 oz 1.9ml

After seeing what others got I should have made them wait and do the consult, this is crazy, I paid full price too didnt find out about the penny thing till later.

They still have not scheduled or even attempted to reach me to schedule a consult,  I will for sure be attempting to contact them on monday morning!

You have to schedule your own appointment for the consultation on their website, they won't contact you for it.

I just got an email of my next "order" and so far I haven't been charged. It does include my credit card info, an amount and such but no charge on my card. I will keep an eye out to make sure I don't get charged but so far they're holding up to their end.

Question for you ladies...what do you think of the packaging? I'm kinda a sucker for things like that and didn't like Sindulge's packaging. It's hard for me to get excited about opening such an ugly package. Am I weird? lol

 

[glamourdolleyes]

I agree.. To me it had kind of a "dollar store" vibe. The packaging was dirty and kind of tacky. Also kind of useless since you can't reuse it really. I like the companies that have awesome reusable boxes. I have them EVERYWHERE storing EVERYTHING lol

[Caryatid]

Haha... I actually liked the bag!

I posted on what I got. I haven't seen anyone else get the Jouer, but can someone please confirm that it's full-sized like I had said?

I hated the packaging, too. I hate it when things go straight in the trash. At least when it's bubble wrap my kid can play with it first /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

also, i'm totally loving the youngblood eye cream

I know. I'm not happy at all with them now. They said it would be shipped last Thursday and I still haven't heard from them. Should I just cancel? Or is it worth it to wait for a free box? I've seriously been waiting a month.

And java that is absolutely ridiculous that they haven't sent your box!

I had my consultuation with Ami about two weeks ago and they shipped my bag out Friday. Hopefully it will get here sometime this week. I'm excited and curious to know what I'm going to receive. I did not receive the email for another free month so if I don't like it I'll probably cancel.

I know what you mean. Even my Birchbox boxes get reused!!

I recycle all of them. The only boxes I've kept is the BA ones, but I don't have much room in my teeeny apartment for storage. I actually appreciate the companies that use less boxes and less paper.

So far I am able to reuse most of the packaging for trades, but I am not sure how it will pan out once I get more boxes. If you give little gifts regularly, the Birchboxes are great to put wrapping paper over. I have a bag of gift bags, tissue paper, ribbons, and such that I keep for gifts.

Well, I got my Sindulge today (yes, after all the grief, I gave them one more chance when they attempted to make it right), and I'm glad I only paid a penny, I'll just say that.  I had told them I liked bright colors, lip balms, and eye makeup, that I did NOT want skincare, and that I never wear foundation...

I got:

• the Youngblood Mineral Primer that everyone gets (I'm sure it's a good product, but as I said, I don't wear foundation).
•  The Bella Rosa calming skin cream (this looks and feels way too heavy for me, I've been breaking out this last month so I wanted to avoid more new skincare, as well.)
• Pixi Eye Bright Primer (I will use, but it is tiny and seems to be hardly anything in there, maybe 2 uses?) 
• and a pair of fake eyelashes. O....kay.  They're actually pretty cute and not the huge obnoxious ones or anything, but they're just not my thing. They're the Audrey style by faux lash and they retail for $16....

 It definitely seems like they've run out of products and the later people are mostly getting the same thing...

That said, if you're interested in those lashes and want to trade for something, let me know. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I LOVE FALSIES. I think I put everything I had in the traveling box, but I'll let you know if something comes my way.

Oh, I guess I did get that little Pixi eyeliner in black...it had rolled underneath something and I didn't see it until I got up.  So there's something I'll at least use. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Playedinloops -  After our various April boxes arrive, just about anything you don't want, I'd trade for the falsies /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I'm not picky, just don't want them to go to waste and I know I will never wear them.  I tried to use falsies ONCE, after fighting with them for 20 minutes to get them on my eyes straight, I then managed to glue them to my finger.  Just not meant to be!

Hahah, I understand, they are tricky, I've been using them for almost 2 years now and I wear them pretty much every weekend lol. I'm also an eyerock designer liner fan, so I know I have weird things I like, hahah. 

 

[javagirl87]

I told them them on their facebook that they're treating me unfairly basically (customers shouldn't be treated unequally), and I looked today to see if they responded (of course not). But what I did see was that someone else posted saying they only received THREE small samples. That's it. That's so terrible!!

You know, I was actually excited to try the eye rock liners!   I just couldn't get them to stick, and as I no longer have eyelash glue since I'd given up on falsies, they ended up being mostly a waste for me too.  SIGH.  lol

 

[ageofanxiety]

Well I got my box today. I'm pretty meh about it.

Pixi flawless and poreles - I'm actually interesting in trying this out

Pixi eye bright primer - Pretty sure this has been used before. Gross. At the very least it had been opened because the lid wasn't on correctly.

Pixi endless silky eye pen - It looks like a pretty good eyeliner but it's super tiny

Bella Rosa Calming skin creme

Youngblood hi-def powder

I'm most annoyed by the primer and the Bella Rosa skin creme. I had a note in my beauty profile thing that I have really bad allergies and can't handle anything with a strong floral scent plus I reminded her in my consult. The creme is so strongly rose scented. Ugh. Also in my consultation we talked about some "awesome blush by Benefit" and about liquid eyeliners. Guess that's not happening. lol I'm excited to try the Pixi stuff out but it's a little excessive really. I'll definitely get the next box since it's supposed to be free but after that is a long shot at this point.
