Sindulge Discussion

Holy crap. I'm sorry. That's basically what I got.

I gave in cause the penny code was still working. My consult was scheduled for Saturday but since I have been out of the country for a month and my baby has ear surgery Wednesday, I asked for an email consult. No problem was the prompt response.

7 days later and still no word on sending me a flippin' email. 

Urgh. I have contacted them 3 times now with no reply.

HOW HARD IS IT TO COPY AND PASTE PREVIOUS EMAIL CONSULTS AND HIT SEND???

Maybe because I do the job of two people at a nonprofit (at least), have two kids and help my husband run his business,  poor organizational skills and amateur planning skills do not elicit sympathy over on my couch.

Can we say "Lame"? Okay, I know I shouldn't complain because since I am getting two boxes for a penny, this literally cost half a cent, but seriously?

One: I was told I would be getting an acne serum and a dark spot corrector. I got an anastasia beverly hills gloss, youngblood eye cream, pixi eye primer and the rose creme. It would be one thing if I had asked for the dark spot corrector and the acne serum but I didn't ask, THEY told me they would put it in there. So they are making promises they can't keep.

Two: I am a graphic design major and packaging and presentation is a big deal for me. The fact that the box was covered in dirt and dust is a big no-no for me. (not to mention I have dust allergies, bleh!)

Three: After all the crap we had to go through to get these boxes they should have been well worth it. These samples don't feel worth it at all.... Maybe my opinion of them is messed up from all the other mess ups, but I am not impressed. I am going to cancel as soon as the second box is shipped, or the day before the third box would be charged, whichever comes first.

My box was dusty/dirty too-I tossed it. Normally I repurpose all my boxes but this was yucky! 

 

[sweetiegirlll]

That's it!  That's the one I have too.  Nice, I'm going to start using it again tonight.

Yup that is the one I have! I can't promise any miracles, but I've noticed a difference in about 3 weeks of use.

lol, mine actually stuck really well without lash glue, but next time I use them, I will make sure to add that on there. I went through all 4 of mine really fast, have traded for 2 more sheets and bought them with the bb points on my second bb account when I went to close it, lol. 

Keep me in mind for trades. I don't have enough lid space for the eye rock liner. I will be updating my trade list soon. Oh, and then there is April. I don't even remember everything I have coming in April. If I get false lashes in my Sindulge, I will think of you.

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" />

Sounds like a good time to update your trade list. Take comfort in the traveling box coming up.

 

[yousoldtheworld]

Yeah, I wasn't expecting much so I wasn't upset, I just hope they figure out that a box of primers for some people while others get full sized makeup products is a little crazy. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[Playedinloops]

Whats weirdest to me was that people were getting full size OPI or stila or whatever at the beginning and everything that is coming out now is crap. I really do think that whoever said it looked like they spent $500 at sephora to sprinkle in with a warehouse full of youngblood was right, lol. 

 

[eclipsechick08]

I just checked my bank account and there's a pending charge from Sindulge for $0.01. Not free, but still.. I was happy with my box so I'm okay with it.

Yep, and I get that boxes aren't exactly going to be equal, but NOT for the discrepancy between boxes to be so huge, it really is like they planned for like, 30 subscriptions and were surprised when they surpassed that amount and just started dumping Youngblood primers on everyone.  I wouldn't mind trying some other youngblood products, but I saw one box that was like, 4 primers and the pixi liner. Really??

Yeah, I'm kind of kicking myself for even bothering to sign up a third time because I know for sure the box will be full of crap, whereas if I had stuck with my original date of consult (when they sent the borked up links...I think I was actually the first one here to attempt to go but it didn't happen), I would have gotten a semi-decent box. 

 

[ladygrey]

I'm beating myself up over it as well. I think I got pulled in by the fact that the first one only costs a penny. The low price doesn't really even matter, if it's junk, then it's junk, and that's what it's looking like it will be. Goodness knows I have enough beauty crap to last me four lifetimes.

My box is scheluded to be delivered today. I can't wait to see what I get and I'm also ready to cancel!

 

[glamourdolleyes]

I have a 1 penny charge too. No big deal of course, I am happy it wasn't full price because that would just be another hassle to deal with with them.

playedinloops-i signed up 2/28 and had my consult the next day, and so i should have been one of the first subscribers too. But my box had nothing too good in it either lol

So i just had my second consult. She began with the same skin type/hair color and age questions. Then I explained to her that we went over that in my first consult. I told her that we talked about me getting makeup. I told her I had a million primers (she told me to give it a shot since this youngblood primer is all mineral) I told her i didnt need any eye creams or face wipes, and that i really liked light colored lipsticks and glosses, faux lashes and eyeshadows. I told her any makeup really, just no more skincare unless it was something for blackheads. She seemed to GET what i was saying and said she would do her best to get my box right. I also explained how I was kind of upset that other girls received too faced, stila, etc....and she explained that different things were available at different consultations.

For some reason, I still have hope for Sindulge. I will see how this box goes. If its much better, and she listened, Ill be SO happy. If not, there will not be a third month for me. Also...I think i will cancel for a month just to see what other people get for the NONpenny box or the free box.

 

[Souly]

Did she contact you to set up your 2nd consult or did you contact her? Just curious.

Hope you get a good box

I know you didn't ask me but I figured I would answer (for my case at least). I received an email that my order had gone through, I am guessing they do that every month on your "anniversary" and it had a link in there to choose my consultation.
