**SPOILERS*** November 2013 Popsugar Must Have Box

[yousoldtheworld]

The naughty candle smells nice, but yeah, it is lightly scented compared to the BBW ones I am used to.

Hi all! Does anyone know how shipping works? I got an email that I was getting this month's box from the wait list early last week and since then, I haven't gotten any updates and no tracking number is listed on my page. Are they like Ipsy (i.e. shipping without sending tracking?). Interestingly, I'm not that excited about the box, but I need the soap and preserves by Friday for a birthday gift for someone at work. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

A lot of times Ill receive my PS tracking when it's almost there- you could use your PS subscription number to track by reference number via the fed ex website

Hi! I'm sorry I didn't reply to your pm. I don't think the canvas pop codes are unique codes (as in I think we can all use the same one) so I didn't pm you to trade. but I will msg you my gorjana code later today anyway bc we agreed to trade and I won't be using it. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Aw, you do not have to do that.  I did not realize that either! Honestly I have not even looked at the canvas pop card.  I just threw it in my closet. Thank you for responding.

Another thing on the lack of scent... Some candles aren't scented all the way through. Just the outside wax. Yankee candles are only outer wax scented. BBW has scent all the way through. Not sure which category illume falls under, but it's an idea.
Hm, that's interesting I didn't know that! We usually buy BBW candles, so that's why the lack of smell must have been so evident.

So I FINALLY got my popsugar box today...

...and the candle leaked. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> It got on the label so there's a greasy stain and the inside looks weird (like the candle doesn't quite touch the outside of the glass but the oil did so theres like separated looking patches?) but it didn't show well on camera so... well, here's the outside for an idea.



This is super disappointing, I was looking forward to the candle the most. Mine came in Nice, not sure if I'm crazy about the smell.

The soap is nice. The smell is really strong but it smells natural. I got the nail polish remover in lemon, the packaging is super cute. The scarf is staticy and smells weird but it's cute as heck. Everything else was pretty okay.

My first month was exciting but this box was a let down. Between how long it took, the leaky candle, and and the weird scarf smell, the bombs outweighed the wins. Also disappointed that the canvaspop code isn't unique. I hope next month's isn't as disappointing.

Email PS & I'm sure they'll send you another candle- PS is good about making things right when it comes to mishaps like this.

My scarf had a weird smell and had lots of static as well. The nice candle smelled better than I expected but, was able to trade for naughty as well. I will burn them together and see. I really like how the soap smells but, I think I will try and get my husband to use it since it does kinda remind me more of a guy than girl soap.

Hmmm. Looks like I need to try BBw candles! I usually get Yankee. My naughty candle does smell--I put it in my bedroom. The room is small so maybe that's why I can actually smell it.

Thinking the same thing on the Bbw, need to try!

 

[stephstrong]

Is there a December thread yet?? I didn't know if there wasn't one or if I was missing it...

The gals that work at Yankee come in and buy BBW candles, if that tells ya anything.  I think Yankee has great scents and pretty good candles but BBW candles (for the most part) are reliable.  And if you burn one and discover you hate it or can't smell it, you can return it.

So, I was playing around with the scarf tonight when I had an idea to belt it over my dress. I love it and thought I'd share....

I kind of half want to keep it now just because of that.

OMG totally, it screamed vintage Atari to me

Ditto for the weird smell and the static!! I febrezed mine and it was okay. @jbird1175 That's a really cute way to wear that scarf!
