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.

I got my key in "Strength", which is similar to a couple of other people's keys but in a brass/gold version.

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!
