FabFitFun VIP Summer 2014 Subscription Box Review Info

Each box comes with a fold out card detailing all the items included.

FabFitFun VIP Summer 2014 Subscription Box Review Purlisse

Sonia Dakar Flash Facial - Value $99

Pur-lisse SPF 30 Sunscreen - Value $55

I've used both of these products before and really like both of them, so I knew these products alone would make the cost of the box worth it to me. (I never seem to have enough SPF!)

FabFitFun VIP Summer 2014 Subscription Box Review Hair Oil

Balanced Guru No Frizz Oil - Value $25

I'm so used to getting tiny oil samples in subscription boxes, so I was thrilled to see a full-sized organic hair oil in this box. It has a nice lemongrass scent, and when I tried it on my dry hair it definitely helped with frizziness, but also weighed it down a little bit. I'm thinking I will have better results applying a lesser amount to damp hair.

FabFitFun VIP Summer 2014 Subscription Box Review Water Bottle

FabFitFun Water Infuser BPA-free Water Bottle - Value $15

I have quite a few of these infuser bottles thanks to subscription boxes, but I really like the design of this one since the cap completely covers the area where you put your mouth. (I'm really particular about water bottles). Now I just need to find out if it is dishwasher safe!

FabFitFun VIP Summer 2014 Subscription Box Review Clutch

Thursday Friday Mini Clutch/ Makeup Bag - Value $35

This item had variations, and I can't believe I actually received the print I wanted! It's a well-made little bag, and it also came with a $30 off Thursday Friday gift code.

FabFitFun VIP Summer 2014 Subscription Box Review Zoya

KissStix Lip Balm Set - Value $6

Zoya Nail Polish in Maya - Value $9

I remember seeing KissStix on Shark Tank a few years ago and thinking it was a product for teens (I could be wrong), but I gave it a try. I think the raspberry and lemonade flavors compliment each other well, but the flavors were a little too intense for me!

I am really happy about this Zoya nail polish though - I love their formula, and this is a fun neon summer color!

FabFitFun VIP Summer 2014 Subscription Box Review Pop Chips

POPchips - Value $1.29

These aren't too exciting since they've been around for a while, but I love POPchips and ate these almost immediately, so no complaints!

FabFitFun VIP Summer 2014 Subscription Box Review Sponsored

Sponsored Items: Skintimate Shave Gel, Slimfast Have Your Cake Meal Bar, and Always Xtra Protection Long Daily Liners

This is the first time FabFitFun has had items on their card listed as "Sponsored." I'm guessing that means these companies paid FabFitFun to be in the box. I have no problem with that if it means FabFitFun has more money to spend on featured items for the box. I think they may benefit from putting these sponsored items in a separate bonus item bag like New Beauty Test Tube does though, since sometimes having freebies in a box can make a box feel cheaper - if that makes sense?

Verdict: Aside from the KissStix and the sponsored items, I will use every single item in this box - so it was definitely worth the $49.99 I paid. I think my only complaint would be that I would have liked to see more items in the Fitness category. What did you think of the Summer FabFitFun VIP box?

I ran out of hair oil today. I received a sample size from a different sub box and been looking for it. The hair oil is my favorite item from the summer box. I did use up the Purlisse, but I spend a lot of time outside. I haven’t used the flash facial much. Has anyone been using it consistently? It seem to dry out my face which I don’t want!

lily

For anyone that got the code used 3 times, did you also get get charged full price this morning for a box you thought would be Free?

Blessedmommi

Hi Lily

They tried to do the same thing to me. I had a feelin they might so I changed my payment into to a prepaid cc that I haven’t loaded funds on yet so they weren’t able to charge me. I contacted customer service about it. Just waiting to hear back since my box is suppose to be free.

Recently a sub wrongfully charged me $100; it took 2 weeks for the money to post back. I didnt want to take a chance with FFF so I changed my payment info since my box is free.
Hopefully they get it sorted. I don’t think they have set their system up to not charge those who have free boxes. hopefully you get your money back quickly.

The fff site is still showing summer boxes so I thought it was worth posting my $15 codes: 4440916 & 9483222

Yvonne

The first Fall box spoiler is coming this Sunday, Sept 7th. Per the FFF facebook page……

Blessedmommi

Hi,

Blessedmommie, remember me? I just wanted to let you know I finally received the summer box today! It was well worth the wait 🙂

Blessedmommi

Hi Michelle 🙂

I’m so glad you got your box!
I hope you got the clutch pattern you love.
Are you excited about the fall box.? The apron spoiler was so cute. I can’t wait for it to arrive next month 🙂

Brandy

Please if anyone has anymore valid codes keep posting. I know some people looking for codes and they track your code via Fab Fit Fun and give you $15 off the fall box for each person that signs up. I posted my code via this website, Facebook Fab Fit Fun and subscriptionboxmom I think was the one. Anyway I posted to 3 sites and I receive the box for free. I verified with Fab Fit Fun with my email address and code and they said my box is completely FREE and scheduled to ship September. Do you know how suprised and giddy I was?!. Lol..

But I came to thank you guys for using my code because without your help I wouldn’t have received the free fall box!

That is why I say please anyone wIth codes go to the bottom of the page and submit a comment with your code and you are helping other people and yourself as well. Thanks again!

Who else has received a free fall box from sending codes? I would love to hear about it. 🙂

Emily

Here is my $15 off code! I don’t think it’s been used three times yet. 5060602!

Brandy

$15 OFF FAB FIT FUN USE CODE…

1943231

Brandy

NOTE.. I think my above code has already been used 3 times. That’s the code limit. Please keep trying other codes because it originally took me a few tries with Different codes. Write them down and then go to Fab Fit Fun and see which code is valid. 🙂

Lynda

New code 8020876 – should be good for 3 times. Thank you!

Brandy

After contacting Thursday Friday I found out that the $30 gift card will only work on purchases of over $35 at least $36+, next bag up is $45 + 10 shipping.. And so I would pay $25 including shipping to get a bag that doesn’t look like it’s worth near that much. I’m pleased with my FFF box so the card isnt too important but for some people it is, especially going through the trouble of having to use it and not being able to. I am sure FFF did not realize this but I wish they would have looked into this fully first.

Brandy

If I wanted the bag bad enough I would just order another box. Some ppl buy boxes and sell gift cards on Ebay and so it wouldn’t be fair to the buyers. I used be a big buyer on Ebay but got out of it, my only problem now is sub boxes. 🙂

Shaylee

Here is a code for $15 off of your box to get it for $35!! 3 people can use it. Code 4474098

Brandy

Can someone please help me. I tried to use the gift card that FFF sent me for Thursday Friday and don’t know how. When I go check out it just asks for Discount Code and that doesn’t work. It says nothing about Gift card. I emailed them and waiting on response. I called and got a voicemail.

Thank you!

Brandy

I have a coupon for the FFF summer box almost sold out. $15 off your box. Code valid 1943231

Brandy

Thank you guys for the $15 off code. I got my box for about $35 and the exiting items for me are the Flash Facial and hair oil. I am also finally excited to be able to try the Zoya nail polish. I have Purlisse but this will be my first water infusion bottle. I’ve never tried PSMH but the coupon prompted me to try FFF. A turkish towel would have been a nice addition to this subscription. I don’t have any but I don’t think I could get tired of a nice turkish towel. I would have loved to see some more makeup in this box. I’m debating if I won’t to stick around for the fall box.

I have Purlisse from boxycharm. I feel so spoiled by boxycharm and blush that I want to cancel my sample sub boxes for the full sizes. The only thing that keeps me with the small sample subs is having items to travel with and new items to try and bb point system. Plus I just got off the ipsy waiting list and the cute cosmetic bag and samples look amazing this month. I’m finally going to try New Beauty Test Tube in Sep and can’t wait. I love all the items they normally carry and used to be addicted to QVC.

Brandy

I tried the Flash Facial and it’s amazing! I have absolutely never tried anything like it and my face loves it. I’m addicted!!

The hair oil works well and smells divine. This will last forever.

I have tons of Purlisse already so I’m fine with SPF for a few years!

The Kisstix SPF feel so silky on the lips and taste great. You get two and I received Chocolate and Strawberry.

The water infusion bottle is great to have plus it’s a FFF exclusive.

I can’t wait to try the Zoya nail polish, I’ve heard great things and it’s a pretty peach/orange

I also like the bonuses for travel but the SlimFast and PopChips are gone! 🙂

I’ve seen mixed reviews on the summer box but this was totally worth the price. The Flash Facial alone is amazing and retails for $95.

My main reason for purchasing is the Flash Facial and hair oil but I love everything. $245 value is fantastic for the $35 I spent.

PA Anna

FFF may send you a survey asking what should be in the fall box. My sister suggested a fall eyeshadow palette on her survey. They even requested websites for items suggested.

I don’t know if you saw my experience with Beauty TestTube (not the QVC version) I received a Welcome Tube for my first month’s box. I wanted to give you a head’s up.

Full sizes does make one feel spoiled 🙂 I keep going back and forth with that and sample sizes. I want to be able to try everything, yet have enough of it to see if it agitates rosacea.

Brandy

Lynda

I still have 2 more uses of $15 off with code: 1527693

Candice

I recieved my box way later than everyone else. This was my second box & I’ve had nothing bit problems. The orange (weird orange) polish was open & spilled all over. I sent FFF a msg on Facebook & was told that they’d immediately send me a new polish. Well that was almost 2 weeks ago. Nevermind the fact that nearly everything in the box was covered in orange polish, but I also had a hell of a time just getting the damn box delivered! I am so mad that they haven’t done anything to make this situation right. Screw the polish! Literally! Screw the damn lid on next time! Lol 😉 I feel that customer service is a big deal, & I’ve had nothing but problems with the summer box. I shouldn’t have to remove finger nail polish from everything. IMO. I’m bummed because I’ve been patient, & I feel like thry just don’t care. I’ll be unsubscribing too unless FFF does something to make this situation right, & soon… not in another month from now!

zefiro

I got my first FFF box and love it! My variation is exactly the same as Liz’s reveiwed here and I’m very happy with the feather pattern clutch. Sonya Dakar, Purlisse and hair oil are great. I’m tempted to get another box…

I have $15 off code too, which is 2079315. Used once but good for 2 more uses!

Alicia

I have a code for $15 off if anyone would like it. It’s 1249632 and valid for three uses still. Enjoy 🙂

brandy

I used your code and it is still valid so I paid $35 and am super exited about receiving my first Fab Fit Fun box. Does everyone recieve the same box? I had to fill out a quick survey. I can’t wait! 🙂

Blessedmommi

Use code ***9575713**** for 15 off

Becky Horn

I have a coupon code to the first 3 to use for $15 off your summer box, If interested Code is: 7211531 This is an awesome box!!!

Here’s another code for$15 off, good for 3 uses. Hope someone is able to use this! 🙂 3524888

Alicia

If anyone would like to use this coupon code for $15 please feel free. I’d hate for it to go to waste. It’s 1685397 (valid for 3 uses).

Alicia

The first code was redeemed but here’s a second I won’t be using. The code is 3275510 and it’s valid for three uses. Enjoy!

Blessedmommi

Hmm, I live in Idaho… Both my boxes had that tag on them and then the box they both came it did. I just figured it was a code for boxes that contained it variations I recieved. I was hoping i’d get one feather one and differences in nail color…. O wells

Vanessa

Oh okay, probably not for the airport then lol. One of my other subs (citrus lane I think) also comes with the ORM-D sticker every month.

Blessedmommi

Oh ok.. Lol I just sub to that box for my little girls 2yr old and 4 month old. I’m hoping it’s nice stuff. Do you like that box?
