GlossyBox Subscription Box Review + Coupon – April 2018

March was my first box with GB and the Cover FX concealer pencil was opened and the product had been obvioused used or swatched. The tip was crushed and you could see the usual smooth finish an used product has was missing. I contacted them and they said they would send me a replacement. I never received it and won’t be holding my breath. I’m giving them one month to impress me before I unsubscribe. I didn’t receive the lipstick this month that the teaser featured. They do a fabulous job on presentation but really should put more of their effort into curation!

Glossybox was acquired a while ago and should already have it figured out by now. I subbed for a year a while back and been watching reviews to maybe sub again, but they look disappointing. It’s such a shame they worry more about how pretty the packaging is vs the stuff we get to try out.

I didn’t care for this months at all. I’m upset that I paid $23 for all these repeats and meh items. Bye the way, anyone else notice how they snuck extra fees in & quietly upped the monthly price?

Two repeat items in a 6 month window? No way, that’s just bad business. Add a 3rd repeat from last year and that’s a heck no Glossy! Tsk tsk.

So far no regrets not continuing my subscription thanks to this month’s box. To me this box seems to be missing something, like the hero item. I rarely get excited about ‘wet towelettes’. Plus I would not be happy if I received a smaller version of the foaming wash and not receive something in addition to equal it out. I read previous comments complaining about that. Hopefully next month will be better and these are just growing pains.

It’s too bad GB can’t do better. It was one of my favs for a long time. Now I only get their LE boxes.

I was so disappointed in this box. Not only were there three repeat items, but they were the exact same color/fragrance I’d received previously. I wouldn’t have been so annoyed about the repeat products had I gotten to at least try a different variation of them. My least favorite box in the four years I’ve been a subscriber. One more box like this and I will most certainly be canceling. 😕

For some reason I received two of the exact same box this month. I have no idea why. I love the lipstick, but I do not need three of them. Same goes with the eyecream, it takes forever to use one up! I have like 20 backups as it is. I like the shower gel, and will use it, but again, I don’t need 3 of them. I’d rather stock up on my favorite scent from B&BW. The cleansing wipes are the only welcome repeat, I will make use of them. Not sure I need two of a $44 blush. Can we talk about the ridiculous price on that too?

I can understand the difference in scents but not in sizes of the shower foam.

Am I the only person who doesn’t like the Rituals shower gel? It’s not the scent, it’s the dispenser. I end up wasting large amounts of it by spraying it on the shower door instead of on my mesh sponge.

I subscribed for first time for the eye cream. I removed my cc #…. won’t continue without spoilers … plus willing to try another box like look fantastic, beauty report or Birchbox but truth is I am finally getting to overload and lack of enthusiasm …plus their these boxes I know what I like and what works … there are only so many types of skin care and make up. That GB box is gorgeous so there is that, glad to have tried at least once. Actually like what the brits got I. Their GLossy. Liz, I used the blush as a highlighter on my deep toned skin and no ghosting ornwhite flashback.

So they give repeat items now? That’s disappointing! I got the rituals shower gel foam in last years October box in that same exact scent. and received that laqa & co. Lipstick in daydream as well in one of their boxes too! Same exact stuff!! I’m so glad I never got this box. I only buy when they have something I’ve never had and know all the spoilers .

I got that Happy Buddha last year and I couldn’t help but notice it smells just like the stuff I used to treat my athletes foot as a kid. I like other Rituals scents I’ve tried, but that one – it’s not even a bad scent – but it really reminds me of the wrong thing!

SAME. Long time subscriber. Three repeated items after last months box contained two repeated items. My lip item and shower gel was also damaged. Glossybox sent me a full replacement, which was also damaged (the gel). Sadly I canceled my subscription after five years. My surveys indicated I was getting a different product assortment, but glossybox said those items were sold out. I’ll just buy one off boxes or shorter subscription or trade for items I want from future boxes. I’m so sad, GB was one of my favorites.
