I got a gold/brass/bronze one stamped with “courageâ€.

Although I think the necklace is cute it is just not something I will wear.  It’s going into my bag of things to swap once I actually figured out the MUT website.

 
@rachelshine yayyy so happy you got it, how awesome! I am having such fun watching to see what keys you all got. Lots of great variations, this is fun :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
My variations:

-Lip gloss in Go Nude (love nude glosses)

-NYX in Sunsets with Sophia

-Earbuds in red/yellow

-Courage necklace in silver

So close on the necklace. I don't wear gold so I'm psyched to get silver but I really wanted the Fearless one. I have hobbies like jumping out of planes, rappelling off high rises, etc so that one fits a little bit better

Ahhhh I am so happy with this box. A lot happier than I thought I would be. I was actually planning on unsubscribing but they billed me before I could and thank goodness they got to it before I did. 

I got the NYX Love in Florence palette Bellini Kiss. It is a more brown/bronze palette which is up my alley. The pigmentation is not so great for the two lighter colors. They are very sparkly and flakey, but the three browns are quite good.

I normally hate lipgloss, but holy guacamole!!! This lipgloss has blown me out of the water. It is so pigmented in one swipe and not sticky at all, which is the reason why I usually stray away. It seems to have really good lasting power and makes me almost think of it as a liquid lipstick. I got the color Just Lust, which is a very nice "My Lips But Better" color. I love it! Not totally digging the cooling sensation, but other than that, very pleasantly surprised. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />



I got my key in "Strength", which is similar to a couple of other people's keys but in a brass/gold version. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I kind of wish I got the "Inspire" one because I love the look of the vintage key, but the more I look at this, the more I am becoming obsessed. I do think it is at a little bit of an awkward length (wish it were a little bit longer), but I'm going to rock it regardless. I love the story behind the keys, but I don't know if I will be able to give mine away because I like it so much. Haha (Can't believe these are $55, though!)



I am so excited to try the face mask and eye cream as well! A little confused as to why we got yet another cleanser, but everything else makes up for this little dud.

Also, on a side note, [SIZE=1em]I've got to hand it to FFF for this box. They really listened to the concerns of everyone from the last box. They have stepped up their communication with customers, which had been lacking up until now. I felt very out of the loop on when I was getting my box, but this time I'm glad they sent us an email to give us a heads up instead of having to wonder. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=1em]I also do appreciate that they stopped using the black confetti for packaging, but I wish they would get rid of it altogether! The white confetti still shed on my items and it can be a little bit of a nuisance. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=1em]Overall, very happy with this box. I love seeing everyone's variations! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />[/SIZE]

 
 
While I love the concept of the necklace, it's just not my style so I will be putting mine up for trade if anyone is interested! Just send me a message!

 
Would anyone be interested in buying my winter box? It's not here yet but when it gets here I could just slap a shipping label on it. It's just not my cup o' tea :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

PM'd you.
 
Is there a trading thread for FFF for winter looking to trade my necklace. I got a silver necklace with the word Courage on it. Would love to trade for any gold or brass.

 
I just got my box, and everything in it is absolutely perfect. It's just as great as Popsugar, but with a different focus. Love every single thing they sent out. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Don't you need courage to do all those things? And where do you go sky diving and rappelling? I recently moved to Chicago and I have the same hobbies. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

@sarahinnola What neighborhood are you in? I'm in Lincoln Park.

We have a running joke about my lack of fear so that's what the necklace would be for

For rappelling I do a charity event put on by the Respiratory Health Association of Metropolitan Chicago. They do an event called Plunge The Wit where you rappel down a highrise in the Loop for charity. I did it in 09, 13 and will be doing it again in the future. For skydiving I go out to Chicagoland Skydiving Center. And hopefully over XMas I'll be harnessed and walking on the edge of the CN Tower in Toronto, if the weather holds.

So jealous.  Lived in Chicago for a bit and moved for work.  

Have either of you been to Bongo Room for brunch yet?  If no - go now!

Ooh, what do you have to trade? (I mean, I looked at your trade list, but what would you be interested in trading for this card specifically?)

I don't have my box yet but as soon as it arrives I was thinking of trading it. The undies aren't in my size, and the socks are cute but all the colors I like are out of stock!

 
Yay...got my box today! My variations:

Earbuds-blue/purple (yay)

Key - Silver Strength (perfect...this is for my daughter for Christmas and is a perfect word for her)

Nyx - Love in Florence (pretty)

Lip Gloss - Go Nude (not a fan)



All in all, I like the box...the lip gloss is the only thing I didn't care for.

 
Was finally able to sit down and open my box.  So happy with what I received. 

My variations:

Earbuds in pink and purple, which is perfect.  They match my phone case.

Key in a pretty brace color with the word Inspire on one side and what I assume is the key maker on the other.  It's really pretty.

Nyx - Love in Florence 07 Prima Donna, really pretty purple colors

Lip gloss in Don't Stop Red.
