Anyone willing to trade or sell me the Tatcha Primer sample at a decent price? I’m so bummed it wasn’t in either of my boxes and people are selling it for 3 to 4 times the price of the box. I’ve been with Play for a long time so I have lots of tradeable items.

Got box 363. I’ll use most of it except the purfume, which I rarely do, and that nude lipstick. I’ll save the belief cream for when my skin needs extra hydration. I’m on the oily side. I’m happy to try the new MILK makeup mascara, but if it’s not sweatproof I’ll wait til fall. While not the most exciting product, I just ran out of makeup remover so it’s arrival was timely. I haven’t been using many hair products lately but I have fine hair so I’ll give the spray a shot and see how I like it as I’ve heard lots of good things. Hope the rest of you got something you’re happy with!

So I got my email from Sephora about what’s in my box. I should be getting 603 but what the email shows is different than here. Email says 1. Milk mascara 2. Clinique remover 3. Too faced liquid lip 4. Belif aqua bomb 5. Alterna haircair volume mist 6. Prada candy.

I feel like I need to change subscription boxes. I loved Play when I first joined but I do not like Living Proof products and I keep getting them. I have a full size styling cream I purchased a few years ago and never finished because it doesn’t do anything for me. The bum bum cream would be nice but I’m sure the size is too small to tell anything. The lipcolor is awful and I don’t like matte lips anymore. I have several bottles of makeup remover. Shampoo and conditioner samples are never big enough to do my hair. I’ve never posted a comment but I’m super frustrated with Play. I see Ipsy is #1 on here so considering putting my Play money toward Ipsy. I hate being a complainer but good grief!

I just cancelled. I’m so sick of no dry skin products even though I listed dry skin. I’ll save my 120 dollars a year.

Apparently I got #611 – no use for the styling cream, have way too many other samples, or the nasty foundation – ugh, like others have said, how can it possibly match? TBH am still trying to get over the minisicule Dr. Lipp sample got several months back, really I need to cancel what is wrong with me? Looking at the others would have preferred #363 but would have been stuck with another useless mascara, but would really like to have tried the Alterna volumizer (good good products!) and the Prada cologne instead of the Bulgari, oh welllllllll!

I’m getting #629 and I am pretty satisfied this month, although I would have preferred a MuF foundation since I love carrying them in my to go bag. I have been wanting to try the Clinique Take the Day Off and the Tatcha primer is intriguing. I can’t wait for the matte lip trend to be over since it’s only good for the 1% of people with perfect lips, so I will be gifting that. Overall, not bad. I just got Tarte Sex Kitten liner in another box and it seems amazing. I would love to see that in an upcoming box.

I can never find my box # even in the browser. So, my box is always a surprise. Well as much a surprise as it can be after having seen all the variations. I hope I get one either with new products to try or at least products I use.

I had to contact Sephora by Email to find out my Box # and to find out if my Box had shipped yet and they emailed me back with a list of my samples and said it had been shipped. But My acct Still says “In Process” so obviously they don’t Update All Acct’s. If you email them they will email you back quite fast.

I’m getting the 405 that has some items the same as the 603, but I would rather have the 603. Bum Bum Cream is not for me, but I love the foundation and dry shampoo.

Waited for 603 spoilers and 😢😢.. was hoping for Bum bum or tatcha but instead ANOTHER foundation, a matte lip 💔, and dry shampoo for my biracial frizzy hair 🙄. Sigh. Ah well! Just once I wanna be like YESSS! When I see my spoilers 🤷🏻♀️

I agree…I’m so sick of the too faced melted, it’s like they’re trying to get rid of the universal zombie colors…they never look good on me!
Reply

Same here!! I’m so sad 🙁 I really want to try the Tatcha and Bum Bum before I spend the money on the full size. I’m very disappointed in my bag. I hate matte lip and I got the same foundation 2 months ago. Sign is right! 🙁

I just re-subbed this month…getting box #603. Not too thrilled about the dry shampoo nor the Too Faced Matte Lip product (I don’t need any more definition in my already dry lips). But, everything else I’m excited to try. The Bvulgari perfume, Murad Moisturizer, Bum Bum Cream, Prada Perfume, Belif Moisturizer, and Milk Mascara are interesting. Does anyone know of trade groups close to Sacramento, CA? I like to trade, but I’m not thrilled about paying shipping….

How do you tell what box your getting? I have seen others say it is the last numbers of the order #, but there is no order number.
Reply

It’s actually the ‘Item Number’ (below the ‘Ship To’ information)…I think it is below all the address information. Sometimes it is blank for some odd reason..I had that happen once.

I can’t ever find my box # and I’ve been a subscriber since the beginning. I’ve been getting extremely frustrated with the subscription itself as it is not living up to what the hype is.

I’m getting #363 which is a definite improvement for me vs. last month’s box. I was thisclose to canceling, but I like what I am getting for the most part. I just wish they didn’t have so many variations, there’s always something that I would love to switch out with something else. I think maybe fewer variations each month would help with disappointed subscribers. Or maybe allow us to choose a product like Birchbox does since they have so many options.

I have box #603 and I feel like I’ve gotten that Mon Paris perfum a million times lol but I absolutely LOVE that IGK dry shampoo. I was actually going to purchase the full size! But now I’ll hold off a bit, plus I’ve always wanted to try the too faced melted lipstick and that color looks sooo pretty! Hopefully the foundation will match my skin good…..Overall I am LOVING this bag! Better than my Birchbox 100x over lol I had changed my play profile a hundred times to try and get the products that work for me and I think I finally got it!!

I’m getting box 405 and am dying to try the Tatcha primer in 629 if anyone is getting that and willing to trade I’ll trade whatever in my box or even what’s in my Ipsy (I’ll let whoever know what all I’m getting in my Ipsy) message me on Instagram reneedishman901 I’m on the trade page here but not sure how to check it or how it works

Exact. Same. Situation.
And people on eBay and Mercari are selling the Tatcha sample from this for $40-$50. Like, really? I always think I got a good box and then I come here and see what all the other ones were.

I Don’t subscribe to play anymore but am excited to see the review of the two faced melted matte lippie. Looks like it will either be really cool or really not, and I’m guessing there will be plenty on the swap site.

I’ve only been subscribed for 7 months and this is my 3rd dry shampoo!! Including one I got just last month. Also my second cover fx foundation and my second miceller water/make up remover… so many repeats already, this might be my last box. I almost never get actual make up!
Reply
Lora
This is only my third box and this is the second dry shampoo and second cover fx foundation 😒, neither which I use. I switched my beauty profile around and if that doesn’t make a difference for next month I’m cancelling.

I got box 603, not my first choice, but somethings are new and some I just like, so I’ll take it.
