I always miss it!! 🙁 Is there a way to receive an email when it’s released?

Yes, if you sign up to receive MSA emails/updates from Liz, she always sends an email out when they’re released… that’s how I always find out anyways. There might be a way to get an email notification from Target, but I don’t know about it for sure.
Luckily (thanks to Liz) I’ve been able to get the past few boxes and they’re great, definitely worth the $5-$7.

Got my box today… Yay! But… The white stripes were missing and the Hair Mist leaked in transit. The bottle was over half empty… So bummed, that was the product I was most excited for. There is enough to sample it but sure wish it was full! Other than that, love everything in the box 😉

Contact target! I’m sure they will at least give you a few dollars off. And the swap site is always full of the stuff if you need more! It smells amazing to me, doesn’t do much for my hair but love the light smell!

They ended up sending my a e-gift card for the entire box. Very nice of them.. so, I’ll save that for my next box!
I just came home and found the box at my door! it is awesome 🙂
and for those of you who asked-
I just checked the website and it still says “order created” and I did not get any shipping email. So I guess that means you will get yours soon too!
Mine was ordered on the 3rd and was here today (08/08)

Mine showed up today too. Never got a shipping confirmation and my order still says processing. Looks like it’s just a glitchy box but they are being sent.

Lol me too. I got my box yesterday but got a shipping confirmation email from Target this morning.
Randi
I just got my confirmation and shipping email today… but my box came last week!
Not sure what was wrong with system – but no complaints here bc I got my box really fast.
Randi
I got my box today already! Love how fast Target is! Wish PopSugar was this fast (my Aug box is still processing).
And I don’t even remember getting a tracking # for it, maybe I did and just overlooked the email I guess

I’m surprised too! Glad you were able to grab one! 🙂

ordered 2, I think they still have some left because they are limiting the purchases. I added on a Burts bees lip balm using the coupon so I got it for free.

Grabbed another two and a free elf brush using my $3 off coupon from the last box! Great idea! I sent this link to my best friend and since she doesnt have a target card I bought hers :p And now a free brush too!

I can’t believe I still got one this late! We’ll see if I actually receive it tho?

I’m fairly convinced that there is something wrong with the site and that the purchases will not be honored – hopefully I’m wrong but the 2 I ordered are still being created which is not my standard Target experience.
Reply
Marissa
Mine are both still in the “Order created” state. I ordered one within a minute of Liz posting this (Yes I have a problem) and then sent in another order last night. Both still say that. Anyone have a Order history saying anything else?

what is the coupon/code for the $3 off??
Reply
Marissa
They are individual coupons given in these boxes, the last two college boxes came with $3 off $15 beauty purchase code (one time use, individualized codes) that expire in 20 days.

It was sent in the Summer box.

The box is still available which is very odd for a Target box. I’m wondering if there is something wrong with the site and it’s still accepting orders. My order has been the “creation” stage since this morning.

my box is in pending shipping status.i ordered around 9am pacific time if that helps.

Last time alot of people had their boxes cancelled because Target oversold. Target is seriously an awful company. A 7.00 makeup box isn’t worth the headaches I had to endure with them during the Summer box.

I was so happy that I read the comments! I used the $3 off $15, and to make $15+ I bought some hair products that gave you a $5 gift card when you bought 4. I also had $15 in gift cards on hand, so it was a great purchase! Thanks for the notification and the tip!!!

thank you for the reminder 🙂 So excited to try the products.

I bought one, but just because I can’t resist Target boxes. There is nothing in the box I need, but I would like to get my daughter to wear a protective hair spray so her dye job doesn’t fade so quickly. She’s found fault with all the similar products we’ve gotten so much.
And she can always use mascara. Plus it’s $7.

I ordered on my phone this morning. Thanks for the email reminder, Liz!

I am sure $7 is right about their breakeven cost for shipping/processing/box materials (products not included of course).

A box of 4 white strips is $50 so the one in the box makes up $12.50 of the value. I’m excited to try it. I’m also excited about the fekkai, I received the pre-soleil in my summer box and absolutely loved the product but not the price. Also excited to try the olay toner, I haven’t used a toner in my beauty routine for awhile. Clairol and my hair have never gotten along but I’ll give the mask a shot, same with the mascara. Target boxes are great, I always feel like the value is real unlike some other boxes.

Be careful with those whitening strips. I’ve been reading reviews, and although they will really whiten your teeth, everyone is complaining of horrible tooth sensitivity afterwards.

Due to your alert, me and my co-workers got one. Thanks Liz. Love your website.

Had to snag one. $7 that’s a latte and a chocolate. The hair mask is $12 and love the Fekkai Pré-Soleil Hair Mist. Living in Florida if I don’t protect my hair from the sun it turns brassy. That spray is awesome!

I *think* I got one! I wasn’t home when it was first announced, but tried as soon as I got to my laptop. I had so much trouble checking out and even had to change browsers, but I finally got a confirmation page. I haven’t received the confirmation email yet, but I’m really hoping it went through!

I will be passing on this box. I got both of the boxes that Target offered a few weeks ago. My willpower is finally starting to kick in lol.

Just got one! So hard to resist… I’ve recently canceled a couple of beauty boxes (Petit Vour for example) and I need to cancel at least one more (maybe Glossybox). I need to get through some product samples but this was too good of a deal to pass up!

I thought these were sold out because I kept receiving an error page when I started the check out process; however, once I switched from my cell phone to my laptop, I had zero problems. That being said, if you’re having problems adding to cart or checking out, try on a desktop or laptop. I don’t know why this is the case but it worked for me.

I’m not sure I need anything in this box, but it somehow ended up in my cart anyway…the hair mask does look interesting!

I don’t know what would I do without your email reminders, lol, I grabbed one, didn’t really need any of the products but I’ll use all of them 🙂
Thanks!

I agree with Lasi! The reminders are SO helpful! I would’ve missed out on the last one (and probably this one too) without them!
