FabFitFun Summer 2017 Subscription Box Review + Coupon

Does anyone know what shoes she is wearing in those pictures???

I am a preferred customer: I paid for a full year in advance for the privilege of selecting some of the items in my box. My first two boxes were great! But the Summer 2017 box was a disaster!

Their system crashed on opening day of selections. Took two days to get it right. Made my choices. The box did not ship for more than a month after it was supposed to ship. Also, my selections were not honored.

To be fair, they have offered a credit, which I appreciate. But in all cases, it was my reaching out to them that brought me answers. When they could not ship on time or ship the items I preferred, they should have reached out to me. There was no notice of late shipment. There was no acknowledgement of not filling my order as requested. What’s the point of being a preferred customer if you don’t get what you prefer? I will not renew.

I had an ad today, to my phone, which said 40% off the summer box with code SUMMER40. That would bring it down to $30.
They must have overproduced this one!

I guess this box is still available (Lisa Rinna hawking it on my FB page…lol). I’m always torn with this sub…I want it, but there’s enough there than I don’t want, but enough that I do…igh.

Has anyone ordered recently? If so, did you get the art kit, travel set, or salt set? I really don’t want the art kit but have a feeling that’s the ones they have left.

What is the difference between the avene sunscreen in the orange bottle (included in this box) and the white Avene bottle that is specifically labeled mineral?

Has anyone experienced any burning in their eyes from this sunscreen?

I have 2 questions for all you FFF pros!
1. Is the highlighter supposed to be solid or a powder? Mine is all broken up and got powder everywhere when I pulled it out of the box.
2. How do I get a copy of the Hello Summer flyer? Mine didn’t include one.

This is my 2nd box and I’m probably canceling, I got the art kit and it sucks I would have actually used the travel option/ and the salt set is cute.

Art kit will go to my niece for her bday.

if anyone has a travel kit they won’t use I could use.

Did anyone else get a discolored or expired Juice Beauty eye cream? Mine looks almost beige in color, and not white like I’d expect. There’s no manufactured or expiration date on the container. I noticed in some reviews that it was causing bad reactions, and it might be because the product is old. I have sent an email to Juice Beauty to find out when my product was manufactured.

Did anyone else get the wrong add-on and picks? I paid for an add-on necklace and was sent a different one. And I picked fitness option and received the beauty one. 🙁

Has anyone else’s box still not shipped? This is getting ridiculous. I’m a renewed annual subscriber who purchased a lot of add on items & all the choice items so I check all the boxes for priority shipping. Strangely I received the travel/beauty/kitchen stuff separately over a week ago but the rest is still awaiting shipment.

I received my box a day before I’m set for a very long plane ride. I got the black Ruana and decided at the last minute to take it in my hand carry. What a lifesaver! I didn’t want to take a sweater on the flight because I had so much stuff as it is so I used that and it was light but still so cozy! To think I was going to cancel my subscription after seeing that spoiler and I’m glad I stuck with it. Great travel accessory! Thanks FFF!

First time getting the box, must be honest kind of dissapointed. Some of the items were nice like the water bottle and the wrap, other than that I felt like it just is not what I expected. I thought they would customize the box more towards your profile for the products that have alternative options such as the salt grinder, travel tag, or paint set but I suppose they don’t. For example, my profile said I loved to cook, like to travel, and dislike home decorations and diy things; but somehow I got the paint set. To top it all off the paint set came in damaged, so I ended up throwing it away. Very on the edge about ordering another box.

My box is so underwhelming. Art kit, beige sarong, dry shampoo, just a bore. Good thing their other boxes have been so amazing

This was my first box. I appreciate all the reviews here as they helped me decide which box I to subscribe to among all the choices out there. I got my box today and I love everything! I have already replaced my worn out work drinking cup with my snazzy new blue water bottle.

Wow, this box was a big disappointment. If next box is not better I will probably cancel subscription. How many wraps, scarfs do all of us need-enough. The jewelry is for a 12 yr old, travel tags very cheap, and the salt rock must be for my easy bake oven.

Just to let my fellow vegetarians know. The sample protein packet is NOT vegetarian. It is a derivative of bovine(cow). I’m glad I went to the product’s website first before trying it.

Is anyone interested in trading their Ruana? I got the beige one and likely will never wear it…would love the black or blue one though! Not sure how this whole trading thing works? I’m in Vancouver Canada.

I just received my Summer box. I ordered the Summer 2017 Add-On: PARTY LIKE IT’S THE 4TH OF JULY BUNDLE, but I just received the Karma Kreations Watermelon Ring Pool Float. The bundle was supposed to include the watermelon float, a pineapple float, a palm tree drink holder, and a donut drink holder. I just messaged customer support. I’ve heard a lot of people are having trouble with their addons.

This was hidden under new members on the Billing/Shipping page, but for anyone wondering where their box is, or why it shipped later than expected here’s the Summer shipping schedule link: http://support.fabfitfun.com/hc/en-us/articles/201839848-When-can-I-expect-my-shipment-?mobile_site=true

Received my box yesterday. Selected the blue ruana, but got one called ‘Indigo’ which is darker than the blue pictured. I actually like it better because it borders on black. I didn’t select the black because I just didn’t like the alligator pattern. Only problem is it’s ‘dry clean’.
The necklace retail value is more than the ruana. I agree with many others. It is cheap looking and I am sure I can find a nicer piece of jewelry elsewheres.
I like the Himalayan salt set very much, but will be gifting it. I just bought a Costco jug size of it the other day. The set makes a nice tabletop addition to meals.
Now, as for missing items: I ordered an extra post Spring Editor’s box and I did not receive it. My enclosed invoice lists it. But what I did find in the box was something I didn’t order: a Dr. Brandt microdermabrasion exfoliator. I really hope that that was not a consolation prize to their running out of the Editor’s box. I don’t understand these mistakes, especially when they include the invoice in the box.
My add-ons were two Gypsy roundies which I will use either for myself or for gifts. I really like mine from the Spring box.
So, my feelings are mixed altogether.

I’m a select member, my box just arrived, it is 100% wrong, none of my choices I selected are in this box and I’m missing items. I am so upset with them

I’m sad that my comment will get lost in this large list, but I have to try to spread this message.

Went to check out the Joyful Heart website after opening the Michael Stars Ruana I received in my FabFitFun box to find out more about their project. Michael Stars is generously donating 25%
to Joyful Heart for every Ruana purchased in the three lovely colors Liz presented. I kept reading, and was thrilled to see this issue is being seriously addressed to benefit both men and women.

My hubby and I met in 1982, married in 1984 – still married, and while I knew something was terribly wrong, my husband blamed the distancing between us over the years on his difficult childhood. Last fall, after losing long term employment due to intense PTSD, and no support from one of the largest US employers, he finally opened up to me and spent a month in a recovery center learning coping skills. If you take a look at Joyful Heart’s website you’ll understand what I’m referring to, and I hope that you will support this cause, not only for women, as I was also a victim, but for the men who are afraid to speak out due to the stigma. At the time of hubby’s incident, he could bench press 300 lbs. But sound asleep in a ‘safe’ dorm, and surprised with a weapon, it doesn’t matter. I have never felt so helpless finding out a secret this big is what has been tearing at our relationship of 35 years. Talk about a silent killer. Please consider checking out the website and supporting an important cause. Thank you

I finally finally got my box and it’s missing the juice beauty eye cream, the necklace, and the sunscreen. Ugh. Is customer service responsive? I’m waiting to hear back after my chat got disconnected. Anyone else have missing item problems? So anticlimactic after I held out from viewing the spoilers.

I finally got my box today! I’m seasonal with add ons and all five add ons made it with my shipment. I received the pink BKR bottle, the black & white ruana, and the silver necklace. I chose the traveler and beauty options. I’m happy to say that the passport holder and luggage tag look better in person, I’ll be gifting them to a recent grad. My item # is 1702-DO-3M for anyone waiting to see which variations they received. Not thrilled about the silver necklace, but the pink BKR and black & white ruana make up for it! Very happy with this box overall 💕

I got my box today! Did anyone else not get the items they requested? I requested the Art kit and the fitness option… I received the travel kit (yuck) and the dry shampoo. Bummer!
