Did anyone else get charged a day early (4/1) and under the name “Orders” on card instead of “Boxycharm”? Interesting.

Imma rank the palettes from most to least wanted:
1. My Little Pony. I already have it but I love it and would like a second!
2. Semiprecious. Love the color story.
3. Hello. It’s pretty and I could do a wearable work look with it.
4. Golden State. Definitely good for a day look.
5. Fem Rosa. This one is kinda meh for me.
What about you guys? Anyone else wanna play? 😉

Them Mac colors are not my thing. I am 54 and Brown’s and neutrals are not a good fit for older women they make us look washed out. Bright Vibrant colors so much better!

I’m hoping that he rest of the spoilers will be as good as the rest of this box looks! Especially because the February and March boxes were a total bust

I joined, only to receive the “Oh you’re on the wait list” message. I only joined because it said here that there was no wait list. Thinking I may just cancel.

I just cancelled so hopefully you get that spot! Love palettes and boxy in general but the bad lip colors and bad variations seem to find me and I’m just so overloaded that it would have to be something stellar for me to stay this month.

They just reactivated the waitlist this morning, from what I can tell. The CEO actually responded to someone’s comment about the waitlist, on their fb page. He said he promises the wait will not be long. I’d hang in there to see what happens the first week of April, if you want to try it!

Is everybody still having trouble with website? I’m unable to order thru charm shop. I’ve emailed customer service and of course no response.

I’ve been waiting on an order from the 18th of March from the shop. All they could do was give me charms and apologize. I hope it ships out soon. :/

Hope I don’t get the Fem Rose palette I have that one. But if I do maybe I can swap with someone that doesn’t have it and wants it. Hope not to get All shimmer one also. Same can swap. Is the swap reliable ppl? I have never done it. That’s really Cool to get one those palettes. I have three and Love them.

That’s the ‘You had me at Hello’ palette not the Fem Rosa palette, the Fem Rosa palette was limited edition and is still in high demand. I sold my unused Fem Rosa palette for $35! A lot of people like trade but I wouldn’t even know how to do that…how can one trust they’d send it out, you know?
Reply
Jackie
I’ve swapped over 20 times on various platforms and I’ve never had someone not send me my products in return. Not saying it couldn’t happen, but on a more trusted site like this, I don’t think anyone here is out to stiff anyone. Idk maybe I trust too easily, but my swapping experiences have always been pleasant and I’ve often recieved as well as sent out an extra product or two. 🙂
Bushra
I think it is legit but personally haven’t tried swapping anything yet. Just like@jackie I too feel comfy exchanging over Instagram. If you /@jackie don’t need anything, you can swap with me. 🙂

You should check out “Boxycharm Beauties” on facebook. You can swap/sell boxycharm items on there with other boxycharm subscribers and they do it all through paypal.

I only have the MLP palette, I’ll hladly switch out for the fem rose palette-well any except MLP lol and yes even though I’ve just been invited (finally) into the swap lol I’m sure it’s all legit; I don’t think Liz would stand for anything less. I’m really hoping of all the lippies I do not get that Mac in the middle-never fails even though all my beaut profiles say I love the crazy dark wild fun bold bright fish is black blue red green purple etc anything but pale pink and nude colored lippies-I ALWAYS GET THE PALE PINK NUDE COLORED LIPPIES!!! Attn::: Will always ALWAYS ALWAYS SWAP FOR BOLD BRIGHT FUN DARK CRAZY LIP COLORS!!!!! Lol :)))

Me too! I regularly feel like I’m being beauty-shunned by my sub boxes. My boxes overflow with nude stuff, even though I always give it negative ratings and all of my profiles are set to adventurous/bold. Birchbox is the only box that has given me good lip products. Ipsy, on the other hand, sends me a face-full of nude color and skin care. I want neither. Those are the two extremes of my spectrum: one is consistently on target while the other sends me hate mail. Everything in between is so-so.
Jessica
I would gladly swap any darker or different shades. I’m the exact opposite and only get dark colors and reds or purples. I can’t wear those colors because I am whiter than snow lol. 😬 My instagram is @jessicalynnluna. I haven’t been invited to a group or know of one but I would love to be. ☺️
AnnaM
I am the complete opposite, they are always sending me bright and bold colors when all I want are the the nudes and light colors. I am willing to trade if I don’t get what I like.
Jackie
I’ve never used the actual swap because my technologically impaired self can’t figure it out, but ive exchanged email addresses or IG handles and swapped with alot of people in the comments and they’ve all been legit. I dont own any of the palettes so if I get one you want, I will swap with you 🙂

They finally put a MAC product in boxes, and it’s a variant? 🙁 Luckily, I’m not wild about those colors and would rather have the highlighter, but I am getting very sick of variations in this box. As I said before, variations should be similar items, or the same item in different shades/colors. Palettes shouldn’t be variants. Idk. I haven’t been very happy with Boxy lately.

Agreed. If I get that brown Mac lipstick, I’ll cancel.

Come on Boxy…quit with the brands that test on animals already!!! There is zero reason for them to be supporting companies that test in this day and age. Disappointing

Please beauty gods…i want a dark or red Mac please!!! It’s my BIRTHDAY month even…..happy thoughts!!!! Been wanting to try them before I invest in them.they say they don’t test on animals. The countries they sell to Do, it’s not their company doing it and they are working toward trying to figure out a balance to make it stop
Reply
RoguesEn3D
I’m split on this. I applaud MAC for going cruelty-free with their brushes this year. However, if a company is truly against animal testing they won’t sell their products in countries requiring animal testing. Those countries won’t change their laws while they’re making money on the products; they have no incentive to change! If all the western companies were to stop selling in China only then would we have an opportunity to affect change.
Angie
I agree! I was just about to write up the same thing but you beat me to it. I will not be supporting Mac until they become cruelty free.

If any cosmetic brand is sold in China (Mac is), its not cruelty-free. China, by law, requires all cosmetics to be tested on animals. Here’s to hoping their laws change.
Jess
They never claimed to be a cruelty free subscription box.

Agreed. Anytime I get Mac, I just put it on the trade page.

I will be happy with any of the above product. But my skin does well with Tarte Products Glow Baby Glow.
😍😍😍 I am happy with Boxycharm. April is my Birthday Month. Make it extra special. I always speak highly of my Boxycharm. There is a New bimonthly sub box called tribe box which I wanted to try but so far nothing compares to Boxycharm at their Rate. We always receive at least 1 item that covers the whole box. Can’t wait 😊

Agree- I think Tribe Box is kind of a tease haha – at first it looked awesome and I was impressed and then I realized the price is way more than boxy and allure and glossybox and I was like nvm….it looks great when you think its $21 but not worth it for the actual price
