Walmart Beauty Box? Sweet!

[Toby Burke]

I got my crone box today and I'll use it but it's pretty bad.

For the curious: 1.8 oz caress body wash, .5 oz dial lotion sample, 1.7 oz each loreal shampoo and conditioner, and a bunch of foil packets and a lady gaga perfume sample. Basically I got stuff you buy in the travel sized bin at the drug store for $1.49 ea, so I think I only got about $5 or $6 worth of product.

I got that one as well /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Most if the stuff I can not use due to the sulfates - going to a friend.

What is left over is crap.

Hopefully, my "young" box will be better.

The first box (fall) was great for the price - it has gone downhill from there!

I'm in shock. I actually got a tracking number. It's not pulling anything up yet but it probably will tomorrow. Mine says WM T 1A whatever that is.

That's the "young" box - mine should arrive late this week.

I am canceling the "old" box - not worth it anymore. Maybe if it improves, I will renew.

I just got my email today that mine was shipping out. It actually went to my Spam filter.

Ah I just logged in to my account and discovered I had my old card info. I think I'll take the money I was going to spend here and just get another Birchbox.

My card expires soon, so when I went in to update, it ended up charging me right away, and I received an email last that said they were shipping out my 'winter' box, so unless you wanted another winter box, that may have been for the best.

I received the older box which has already been posted. I took the Burt Bee serum out and gave the rest to my sister who is visiting. I'm cancelling. I liked the first box, didn't like the second box, and been trying to get into my account to cancel the 3rd except it won't let me. Maybe now I will be able to get into my account. I don't want a 4th box.

Agreed 100% - I received the box and it is not even worth the $5.00.  I was paying for a couple of subscriptions and have cancelled all of them.

Ever since I canceled, I've been locked out of my account. It gave me a warning when I canceled that I would lose all account data and have to create on from scratch to renew my box.

Good to know. Thanks.

Pretty sad box I had fun reading the perfume description though! "Tears of belladonna, crushed heart of tiger orchidea, with a black veil of incense, pulverized apricot, & the combined essences of saffron and honey drops. First of its kind, this perfume is an innovation in fluid technology. It's black like the soul of fame, but invisible once airborne."

It's like someone made this a shower box. Wash your hair, wash your body and put on some lotion and perfume afterwards. So boring and cheap. The samples don't equal $5 to me even though I will use them. I wish a maybelline blushed nudes sample was included but it was just an advertisement. I want to try the hard candy sheer glow but they must not make a wide variety of samples in Walmart brands. I will use the loreal coupon but a little pissy it expires next month. I'm keeping this sub at least another month.

I magically de-aged by 10 years on my Wal-mart account today.

I de-aged too. I won't say how many years. I am going to try one more time at a younger age.

I'm having some horrible trouble getting into my account, this weird error message keeps popping up that doesn't make any sense to me. I emailed them about it yesterday, but haven't heard anything back so far.

Is it a message that say something like only one email address allowed? I can't log in to either of my accounts now due to that.

I'm not sure if the young box spoilers have been posted here yet, but they have been posted on the beauty boxes subreddit, in case you want to look.

@ @@invisiblegirl Same here. It acts as if I'm trying to sign up with an email address that's already in use, when I'm just trying to log in. I have two accounts under different email addresses, and this happens for both accounts. It doesn't matter what device/OS/browser I'm using, either.

This has been happening for about a week now, but before that the website just 404'd on me when I logged in. So I've just been assuming it's an across the board thing and they just need to sort it out.

Hey Wal-Mart, hire a new IT department. Like, the whole department.

I got my "young" box today. It's just meh. lol At least there was a full size product. I'm too lazy to post a pic but here's what I got

Full size: Rimmel London Lash Accelerator mascara I have a crap ton of mascaras right now from free samples/ipsy/L'Oreal consumer testing program so it'll be a while before I get to it. But hey at least I don't have to pay for mascara for the next 2 years lol

Lady Gaga Fame Black Fluid perfume: Small sample vial but at least it's a spray bottle. It smells fine and I'll put it in my rotation

Dove go fresh body wash in mandarin & tiare flower scent: I love this scent so I'll be happy to use it. It's a travel/sample size (1.8 oz)

Schwarkopf essence ultime shampoo and conditioner (1.7 oz each) I'll use them on days I don't have to go anywhere. I have oily roots and these are for damaged hair. My ends are a little unruly so who knows. I'll use them maybe even like them

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Boosters facial cleanser with white tea & vit e: (0.5 oz): Perfect size to take when visiting family for a few days. Better than carrying around my full size stuff.

Nivea in shower moisturizer: Single use. I have like 3 of these I got free!

One time use sample of Garnier Ultra Lift Miracle Sleeping Cream: Same size I got out of a magazine. lol

Maybelline Fit me Matt & Poreless one time use sample: This I actually want to try because I'm oily with big pores so that's nice. Comes with $2 coupon. 

This is where it gets meh

$2 off Schwarzkopf Essense Ultime hair care product

$3 off Schwarzkopf hair color

$2 off L'Oreal cosmetics purchase (not even a one time use sample attached? I would have liked to been able to feel the texture of the Infallible powder or something)

$2 off Covergirl + Olay product

Best of all an announcement that Maybelline The Blushed Nudes will be released at Walmart on 3/29. No tiny sample on the paperboard to feel, no coupon nothing. 

At least I will use everything and most of the coupons have a use for me. It wouldn't have hurt if they stuck a lip product or nail polish in there. I'll wait for the summer box since I do feel this is worth $5.

Edited to add: As I typed this the perfume settled into my skin and I really like it.

I have to move in a few months, so hopefully they get it sorted out before I pay $5 until the end of time to send a Wal-Mart box to the people who live at my old address.

This is my box and I'm happy enough with it for $5.  The mascara isn't the best though, and it's supposed to lengthen your lashes and omfg I don't want my lashes to be any longer.  They already attack my sunglasses, and back before I had my PRK (basically LASIK) surgery they used to attack my glasses too.  If it works, that'll really suck! lol 

 

[MissJexie]

Uhm..I just randomly got a refund on my box with absolutely no explanation...wtf?

I know what you mean. I'm pretty much out of luck with glasses. I wear my contacts all the time (except when sleeping) because my lashes (without mascara) leave thin streaks on my glasses. Same with my sunglasses. So on the rare occasion I wear glasses I have to do without mascara. I guess having long lashes isn't something to complain about though. lol If only mine were thick and darker. It's so odd that I have medium to dark brown hair but crazy light brows and lashes. 

I have another Rimmel mascara waiting in the pile so I'll probably use that one first. I'm just now getting to the free birthday gift from Sephora (Makeup Forever mascara sample) that I picked up last August. Oh well, at least I'm getting all my mascaras free or cheap /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

Also, I agree that this box isn't bad for $5. The most annoying part was the card that just told the shadows were being released but didn't offer a sample so we could feel the texture or a coupon.  But it was probably a deal with Maybelline. Hey we'll give you all this stuff to sample in future boxes if you put this announcement in the box so people will want it haha
