This was month 3 with Socialbliss for me.   I really am so disappointed in this month.  I don't want to be a downer and my apologies to those that love this box, but the coin purse is one Ebay for under $10!  Not sure how they can justify this pricing for a $15 cream and some dollar store spa items.  This is a STYLE box, yet it seems to be a jumble of clearance items.  Nothing summery in the slightest either.  I think the curation REALLY missed the mark this month.  I am unsubscribing.

My clutch was black.
So far I've seen the coin purse in maroon, navy and blush pink....I wonder if there are any other color variations?

I'm looking forward to getting this thing in my hands so I can decide what I love and what I'll give to my little sisters!
My coin purse was black.

This month was the last of my three month subscription. I was initially drawn in by what was in the boxes previous to when I joined. Wish I would have just done a monthly to start, I wouldn't have kept with it this long. How many cheap purses do you want to store in your closet? I didn't want any. They called this latest a coin purse? My coin purse is 1/4 the size of this thing, its more like a bulky makeup bag to take-up too much room that you don't have to spare inside your purse.

Could have sworn I read a question posed from them in a email or on their site?...... Who would like to subscribe to a purse of the month club?

 
Yes, it was on the card enclosed describing May's box.  They were wanted feedback on a purse-of-the-month club.  I am just baffled how they could consider this jumble of discounted and discontinued items a"Fashion Box".  Literally nothing trendy or all that special.

Agree

 
I agree that I was pretty upset with this box. I think that when you advertise as a fashion/style box and have always had the major item be a purse/wallet/clutch, it is quite clear that people are not going to be happy with a face serum instead (it would have been one thing if they had chosen another FASHION item). I definitely subscribed to this box for the fashion items and in particular the bags. I also ALWAYS expect to be able to find the things received at lower than the "retail price" but not at a difference of $140 to $15 and the coin purse at $10 (can't remember what they said the value was). I also think that this particular type of serum is the type of product that would very clearly only be useful or desired by a tiny number of people, which I feel was a huge mistake. Even if this serum was worth a good deal of money, I would have been selling/trading/doing anything to get rid of it. 

That being said, I have received an e-mail asking for feedback, and constructively gave them some. It appears that they realize there was a lot of unhappiness with the box, and I am hoping that they make it right and get back on track for June. I also had a three month sub- if June is awesome I will renew, if its similar to this month I will cancel. I'm willing to forgive this box, if they blow us away next month- I think new growing companies try different things and sometimes their risks might flop. I'm secretly hoping they respond to my e-mail and do something to make it up to me... but I've already swapped the serum which makes me feel better about the loss on the box. 

 
I have been trying to cancel for over a month sent them over 20 emails . I got an email from them telling me there is a link online for me to cancel. I cannot find any link. I emailed them back I guess it will take another month to get an answer.  I don't need anymore discontinued items.  They charged me for next month and  I disputed the charge with my credit card

 
Hey, I agree with you all. The box was bad. But, I'm wondering if anyone has actually tried the face stuff (I haven't because I'm on the fence about whether to swap it and I want to keep it new while I decide.) I read the Amazon reviews for the $15 version and many claimed to love the product they bought at full price, but believed what they got on Amazon was a fake. Maybe the amazon one isn't the real deal.

I just wonder if that is actually a good product or not. I've been a bit swap happy and almost swapped another face product from another box, but decided to use it and it is awesome.

 
My hope is that Socialbliss was overwhelmed last month, and will have more interesting and fun fashion items in the future.  I have not tried the lotion either, and look forward to hearing what everyone thinks of it.

 
To be honest I liked May WAY better than April.  The only thing I enjoyed from april was the mascara and that was a 1/2 sized for basically $50 (totally not worth it).  This month was I really happy with almost everything in the box :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I am going to give it another month and see what way I lean since I have a 1-1 score, haha  I really like anything makeup and so I am thinking that this box might not be the subscription for me.

 
Wow, I just took a look on the Social Bliss FB page, talk about unhappy people and negative comments from the scarce comments to their posts and the ratings by customers.... 1 star ratings. Hope they get a handle on what to put in their boxes and turn the tide. Their CS has been responsive to any problems I've incurred with boxes, but many others have not had as good of an experience. I've canceled after my three month stint and am going to watch on the sidelines and see how this next box develops.

 
I signed up for the Social Bliss Style Box because I loved what came in the February box.  I have been checking ebay for the purple Fleur de Wallet and the Wrapped up in Radiance scarf for months, with no luck.  I am hoping for summery, fun items in the June box.  And, I want spoilers!

Has anyone tried anything in the box?  I haven't.  Has anyone tried the lotion?  I am not sure about the face wipes, since they come from another country and I have not heard of the brand.  Do any of you like them?  Has anyone tried the eyelash curler?  Is it for the bottom lashes?  Feedback, please.  Thanks!

 
I've now read all 33 pages of the highs and lows with Social Bliss. Thank you from a newbie for the honest comments and feedback. You've saved me another $50. 
It started off great, didn't it?
 

I have been so frustrated with one now- defunct site's CS that I have literally sat with my phone ( on hold forever) and cried. 

For $50, you could buy so many lovely things of your choice from RueLaLa.com, HauteLook.com, MyHabit.com, Gilt.com, 6PM.com ( no beauty category there), ideeli.com  and the list goes on and on but these are my consistent fave " go to" discounted shopping sites.
I LOVE sub boxes, and I'm getting in over my head in a short time, LOL.

I really do love surprises but not unpleasant ones or substandard ones, or CS people who won't help me after they have taken my money.  Please go and look at these sites and their choices of merchandise before you are charged $50 more for a bunch of small items and probably another vinyl purse.
