[kawaiimeows]

joining in the discussion because i've been so fascinated by this topic, according to posh pod's fb page someone received her pod and she said "it was like christmas in april." i'm intrigued.

 

[Nessax3]

Can someone explain to me how posh pod works im really interested in it

 

[Nessax3]

Can someone tell me how posh pod works I'm new here

We're all waiting to see if there is any legitimacy of this service since so far it seems very skeptical. I'd wait until one of the members here posts what she gets before signing up if I were you.

 

[Nessax3]

Yeah you're right , I would definitely wait first. I've read some already got their samples

 

[Nessax3]

Yes your right I'll do that, I've also read that some already for their samples , I would like to see them can anyone post pictures

This was hands down the best thing I have ever read! LOL & I thought GGG & Sindulge were terrible. I cannot wait to see what you girls get. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I was really hoping there'd be an update here before I had to leave for work, lol...

 

[Souly]

My mail doesn't come until late afternoon but I'll report back ASAP.

Angie - hope your baby feels better soon!

Just read through the entire thread in one sitting. I am so intrigued! I am subbed to a girl who recently did a video on her fave sample subscriptions and she warned her viewers about this company. I keep refreshing the site. I feel like I am waiting for a sneak peak hahah!

Is out for delivery? I'm so excited!!!!!

My camera's dead, but here is a list of what I got in my pod.

Small Victoria's Secret bag (same as in their photo)

Tweezlight Designer Set

Nars Pro-Prime Pore Refining Primer  .27oz.

2 CQ Nail polish full size 

Savvy Eye Brilliance cream eye color quad

small bar Simply Jade soap

Bare Minerals powder eye shadow--full size  Faux Fox

Stila Smudge Pot eye shadow  full size Emerald shimmer

Arbonne FYI It Shines lip gloss--clear with lots of glitter  full size

LA Colors eye shadow full size  Snowflake

Stila perfecting concealer  .27oz  color dark 05

Stila Petal Infusions moisturizer  .24oz

Rusk Calm Shampoo  1.25 oz

2 Prada Reviving Bio-Firm Concentrate  5ml. ea

2 Creative Sensations Black Currant & Fig body lotion  1oz ea

Avojuice Caramel Cream Jucie lotion 1on

Arbonne Intelligence daily Cleanser 1oz

Small foil packet samples:  Stila sheer color tinted moisturizer 4ml., Jeunesse Placenta Pentaritive Eye and Neck cream 4ml, Arbonne Intensive Renewal Serum 3ml, Arbonne Smoothing Facial Cleanser 3ml, Arbonne Regenerating Toner 3ml, Alterna Caviar Volume Shampoo (x2) 1/4oz ea, Alterna Caviar Volume Conditioner (x2) 1/4oz ea

Small perfume vials (1.5ml ea): DKNY Be Delicious (x2), Kenneth Cole Black, Bulgari Au The Vert, Bulgari Au The Blanc

A very odd combination of brands; however, I looked very carefully and feel sure the "high-end" brands are authentic.

That would be a much better box if they just dumped the junk and only gave you the stila, nars, Bare minerals, alterna, prada, etc, with maybe one cheap product if none of them had makeup samples.  

edited to add: Now that I'm thinking about it, the real dividing line seems to be between the companies that are trying to sneak around to find some okay samples to mix with junk and send for $20 a month or whatever (go go girlfriend) vs the companies (like birchbox, test tube, etc) who work directly w/distributors to help products find their markets.

But where is the chanel she posted pics of? The pictures that started the whole debacle...that is what I was most curious about! 

Are you satisfied with your pod? 

It kind of looks like she used to sell arbonne and hand left over stock or something. 

 

[lloronita]

I looked at it and said "Is it as good as my past 3 Birchboxes of My Glam boxes?"  And the answer would have to be yes it is, because I've gotten some tiny samples and lesser brands from them too.  The mere volume of items is impressive.  I don't know if everyone got the same things, maybe someone got Chanel.  All in all I'm OK with it, but I'm not sure that $30 a month is in my budget.  (Plus I would accumulate a ton of samples very quickly!)

 

[nicepenguins]

Good question from someone posting to their site.

 

[Playedinloops]

It does look like a pretty nice list, but again $30 is a lot, and I'm really bad at translating oz to an actual side in my head. That said, Gina isn't a nice person, lol. 

Is that bag actually victoria's secret? If it's the one on facebook..it didn't look legit to me, but I never go in there so I don't know.
