Oui Please Subscription Box Review – Vol 2.6

I’m a novice in subscription world. I started a sub only a few months ago. A lesson learned – avoid subs that offer big discounts! Oui please is the prime example and Beauty fix May box is the other..

My box was missing the Nailmatic and I emailed twice. Hopefully this one gets through. 🙂 I really love this box!

I received pretty much the same items as MSA, except I got the Fifth Sense bracelet instead of the ring. This was my 3rd OP box and it seemed a little light in value. No home item either. If you go to the individual websites and check the prices, it comes up about $100 less than what is in the magazine. I did email Ashley about this, but her comment was that the magazine prices come directly from the providers. My nail polish is on the way though. Good experience with CS for me and I liked all the items I received. They are always good quality. And even though the value fell short, I got a deal on my annual sub.

Could anyone please tell me if OP customer service replies to emails?
I got my first OP boxes this week (I splurged and got two), and neither had nail polish, and one didn’t even have an elastic bracelet, let alone any jewelry at all.
I sent emails to [email protected] and [email protected] on Monday. I then sent the emails to [email protected] and [email protected] on Wednesday night.
As I am a new subscriber (who really hoped to never have to contact OP customer service) I don’t know what to expect.
I have heard that others who contacted OP have already received replies. Am I doing anything wrong?
Thanks for any help that is sent my way.

I received my first box today! I am so pleased with the lovely contents. I received the same box as MSA minus the cookies and the nail polish. The interchangeable is so pretty. I will wear it often. I was luck enough to receive the dusty color of which I am loving. Also got the ring which is dainty as well. I was holding my breath hoping not to receive the headband. I’m sure is is beautiful but I just wouldn’t be able to integrate it into my style. Looking forward to the next box. So far…Oui is my favorite sub! Very pleased😘

I got the same as Liz (same ring, same bracelet but in black, no nail polish) except I didn’t get the cookies.

I don’t even want the cookies or the nail polish but it’s kind of the principle of the situation that bothers me. Seems like a lot of times businesses bank on the reality that people won’t take the time to complain if they’re missing something small, won’t bother to call their bank if they’re overcharged by a few dollars, won’t cancel in time to not be charged after a free trial, etc….
I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a word in the business world to describe this practice/strategy.

I’m also kind of irritated because I ordered 4 bracelets from their shop and they haven’t arrived although it’s been weeks.

I still think the box was a great deal 🙂

Liz what email did you use exactly? The website doesn’t let you click on any links and wants to to manually type it in, so I want to make sure I send to the right one. Thanks!

I adore this subscription and it’s always such a treat to unbox it. I received a similar box but with a 2nd bracelet.

Liz, thank you for reaching out to OP. I will email them about the missing nail polish.

Just wanted to say that I don’t always get a good box but this time I did get the Camille Enrico necklace – I’m posting this in response to a previous poster who said nobody got jewelry. There are some listed in the swaps so some boxes did come with the variations.

My box had all of the same items as this box except I had another bracelet instead of the ring. I think it’s a great box

Wow, big surprise, MSA got a piece of jewelry! One of the “variation” items. Which no one else got. The jewelry does not exist in these boxes. I did not get the nail polish either but I don’t even want it so I’m not going to bother emailing. With one of the previous boxes, I emailed about missing items and they sent me two items that they had leftover from the box before that. Except for the fact that I have one more prepaid box remaining, I am done with this sub.

I would only recommend it to someone who doesn’t care about missing items, because you will never get all of the items you’re supposed to get.

Also I see that MSA got the candy and the biscuits, even though I believe the average person will only get one of the other.

This box was such a disappointment! Exact same Les Interchangeables as a previous box (& in damaged ‘gift box’ to boot!); no Nailmatic; no 2nd jewelry. Soooo disappointed. Rec’d 6 items: 1) Leonor Greyl Shampoo (for dry, frizzy hair); 2) Leonor Greyl Masque (for dry, frizzy hair); 3) Les Interchangebles bracelet (black/crystal = duplicate of Jan box); 4) La Cocette Pochette (overall Paris print= I like it!); 5) Sabe Masson in “Le Paz Macadam” — ick, ick, ick!!!– recall Cuir Tabac, anyone?? 🙁 ; 6) Sophie M. “Violettes” — geez, forgive me OuiPlease, but your advertising made me think we’d be receiving the 3 tins?

Ah well, c’est la vie…

Thus, I shall hold off to re-up my sub on this box. But I have hopes for it….

Meanwhile, Vive la France!!! Celebrating Macron’s win!!

Liz, can you confirm which items were guaranteed to be in every box?
I’m new to Oui Please (2.6 is my first box:), and am super confused on what to expect. Thanks:)!

This is one of the nicer variations I’ve seen. My box had an RV of $320. I received a headband instead of a ring, and I did not get the cookies (nor any substitute item). No nail polish either.

I still liked my box very much, but people considering this sub should know what they’re getting into!

Hi Liz,
Off topic, but Barney’s has come out with a few beauty boxes, and one home box. I’d list all of the products, but it would make this comment too long.

On the Go Essentials $75
Sacred Sanctuary Box $80 (this is the home box)
Out of Office Weekend Escape $145
Self Love $250
Spring Forward $385

That Les Interchangeables bracelet retails for $39, NOT $60.

One might suggest that shipping from France to the U.S. should be added to the RV. But I’ve been able to find LI bracelets in the U.S. for the exact same amount that they retail for on the LI website.

I would find this only mildly annoying if the boxes weren’t almost all coming in under the promised retail​ value. And then OP doubled down on the value. They’re LYING.

I loved mine! I didn’t bother calculating the value because I’m so happy. I probably should though. I got the variation I wanted in each thing. I’m gluten free though so I couldn’t indulge in the ADORABLE palmieres! 🙁

Way too pricey for me, but I would sooo love this box. Maybe I’ll receive it someday as a gift, if I beg enough!

My box had a RV of $325…so even if I add in the missing nail polish, it is still under the promised retail value. (Also interesting to note that while the Oui Please magazine that came in the box listed the Les Interchangeable bracelet at a $60 RV, OP lists the EXACT same bracelet as only $40 RV on their website, where it’s listed as part of the Mother’s Day box…in that case, my box has only $305 value.) I have a love/hate relationship with this box. I really enjoy the products in it, but they consistently have customer service problems. I am still waiting for them to replace an expired product that they sent me; NINE weeks ago they promised me they’d send a new one and it still hasn’t been sent, in spite of multiple follow up emails on my part. Grrrrr.

Liz, would love to see the ring on your hand. just to see how it sits. looks lovey but is it a bit flat? or can’t really tell.

If MSA didn’t receive the polish, then no one received the polish.

I think that you always get a good box – this time, with a jewelry variation item and cookies. I do think that they take into consideration that you are a blogger. However, I think that your missing nail polish is further proof that no one received it.
