@Liz MSA,

Do you know when the next beauty report box is coming out? I thought the winter box would be out by now. I missed Fall and have been checking, checking, and checking to no avail lol

Any idea?

Yours Truly,
Patient BeautyReport Box Fan 😉 😉

It is March now and I was wondering the same. Last year it came around this time.

I have just been stalking their website also.. I’ve been waiting. The last box brought me one of my favorite products!

So some people mentioned the eu2be moisturizer smelled off, well I live in Florida so if it went rancid from the heat it would certainly do that here. While I don’t think it went off it does certainly have a horrible unpleasant “unscented” smell, to the point I put just a little on and had to wash it off.

I don’t think it is bad, it just smells terrible. The formula feels nice so what I did was to add 20 drops of lavender essential oil to it ( I started with 10 but that didn’t cut it for that size jar). Because the smell was so strong to begin with the lavender essentially cut the original scent without smelling like lavender. Now it is silky and light without any real scent. (tip I also put lavender oil in water and vinegar to cut the scent to neutral for cleaning)

Hope this helps!

The surprise winner for me was the Derma Protect primer plus soft. I usually wear moisturizer with an spf, but have some others I have been wanting to try. This is great because I wear a primer anyways and it is not adding another step to my morning routine. And the color is great for me and it really helps blur my pores. My box was missing the biobelle, but I emailed cs and they are sending a replacement.

oh, another update… i just tried the grande lip, and, amazingly… i love it! i have been one of the people who wasn’t thrilled about getting another grande lip, but i love this color on. and it kinda looks like a blurred lip. the formula on this one isn’t even as bad as it was on the red apple and the color is wearable. i’m kinda shocked, but happy! 😀

I love the box and ordered another one. Only thing is the Grande Lips was missing so they are sending me a replacement. They said it would take 4-5 weeks to arrive. Anyway the next box has shipped.

the clear one from the summer box and now this one, that’s two in a row! come on, lucky three!

i got my box today!

everything is as described, and nothing is expired or old that i’ve noticed.

i did see someone mentioned the eu2be moisturizer being maybe spoiled, but mine is fine. i used it after washing my hands… the smell is light. it’s basically what every unscented cream i’ve used smells like, kinda oily scent, if that makes sense? but when it dries i do detect a slight, and i do mean slight, fragrance. it’s not bad at all. it took a little while for the cream to actually absorb into my hands, but it’ll probably absorb much better and quicker on the body. i can’t wait to use it after my shower in the morning, i think the cream will be really fantastic for the winter!!! oh, the batch number for the person who mentioned it is 1430436 or g, can’t really make that last number/letter out. looks weird to me.

the only other thing i tried so far, other than the eu2be, was the moon drop moisturizer. i only tried it on my hands and elbows, so i can’t really base too much of an opinion, but it seems fine. i’m not crazy about the scent, it smells like something i’ve used in the past and can’t put my finger on what it is!!! not terrible or anything, but not something i’d buy in full size.

tonight i’ll be using the hum melatonin. i use a bunch of their vitamins already, so the main reason i bought the box was because i need a sleep aid and i like hum!

i’ll probably buy a second box for the eu2be and hum if the eu2be ends up working well for me tomorrow.

as usual, you really just cannot go wrong with anything from new beauty. the value and the quality is just out of control! i’ve purchased all of their boxes so far, and will continue to. keep being awesome, new beauty!!! <3

For the debate on tbe Eu2be cream, when i opened mine it smelled so awful (like burnt plastic) that i immediately closed it and held it as far away from my body as possible. Im gonna hope that means its spoiled because that’s not a good reaction.

However kudos to test tube because I contacted them last night and they are already sending a replacement hours later.

Otherwise I love the box. I have super sensitive skin so its nice testing some skin care products and that dr lima is fantastic!

Andrea

I just got mine tonight, I ordered 2 boxes so I could share with my daughters and sisters. Did any ones else get 2 Dermaflash and 2 Dr. Lima in there box? Both of my boxes had doubles in them.
After reading all the comments on the Eu2Be smelling spoiled I had to check mine. I agree that it doesn’t have a nice smell but I don’t think it smells spoiled either. I put it on my hands and it just smells blah. Maybe I will try adding some essential oils for fragrance.
lot #143043G on both of them
I really don’t know why anyone would really complain about this box, it was only $29 with 9 full size and 9 travel size products of beauty and hair products to try. I love testing all these new products out with out paying full price. I bought this last year too and used a lot of it all year long, and loved that one also, that’s why I ordered 2 this year. I also love sharing with family and friends.

Same lot # on My Eu2Be…smells neutral as others have said, no tgreat but not spolied either.

I just got my box today and I’m not that impressed. Most of the travel sizes are tiny. In the past the travel sizes where mosr like deluxe. The spring box was a way better deal then this fall one.

To be honest, I initially thought the same thing. But then I used some of the items and loved them so much I ordered another. While previous boxes did seem Fuller and with larger sizes, it was a ton of hair products. Those are the ones I have not used.

Melissa W.

Hum.. got my box today and 2 actually showed up on my door step. My order confirmation only says 1 box was ordered and was only charged for one, but they did take money out for the other box too, just on a whole different time. So weird. I guess that’s fine as I usually order a couple of these boxes, but I just think it’s weird that I never even got a order confirmation for the second box, it just showed up.. Has this happened to anyone else?

Reply ButtonReply

lisa law

I ordered one box, and haven’t gotten it yet…then noticed that I’d gotten two confirmation emails from them, and was charged twice. I DID NOT order twice. I emailed them, but have to wait until Monday for their offices to open to discuss. I find it highly suspicious that they have done this more than once. It doesn’t seem accidental. I will update when I actually speak with customer service.

JuJu

Hmm, I received my box today, and compared to the previous boxes it feels half-empty. I know it’s about the value, but that’s just perception…

I think I’ll hold off on the future boxes, I still have stuff from the previous ones I haven’t used up.

Reply ButtonReply

Paula

Yeah it’s still great value even though this box seemed a little on the light side.

The EU2Be cream is unwearable. I don’t think mine is spoiled. It doesn’t smell rancid – it smells like silly putty or play dough – that plasticy smell. So not disgusting, just not something to put on your skin. I’m 50 and I wasn’t at all offended by the “smells like an old person ” remark. More accurately I think it smells like my grandma’s old house (probably old, moldy and dusty). I’m sure that’s what she meant by the comment, not to insult anyone. This cream is NOT unscented. This cream has a bad odor. This is not something I’d put on my body. Maybe I’d put it on my feet, after mixing a fragrance in.

I agree the Dr. Lima is great! And I looove three neostrata serum! The grande lips was too dark and dry and also smells like silly putty!

Phoebe

Just received my box. First time I have ordered. Half the products are supposed to be full-size but when I opened the box it seemed like only 6 were full-size. But I’m not complaining considering the price and free shipping it works out to $1.66 each. Most are new to me so will fun to try them.

Well, I finally broke down and bought one! I couldn’t pass up this deal, even though I am on product overload right now. I mean god forbid I was to run out of anything, right! Then I also had to get a few of the Juice Beauty Kits for 50% off from Ulta’s 21 days of Beauty Steals. Now the wallet has gone back in the purse and must stay there until the 1st of the month when the new boxes start to come out lol.

when one knows better, one has the opportunity to do better, to be better…

the point of telling “amy” that her comment was offensive, was to teach…now, she has been informed…now, when she has the occasion to comment, she will THINK first…

Christine

I’m sure you meant to say it smells like a dusty old basement, right? Because you must know how utterly rude it would be if you were, in fact, making fun of senior citizens. Nobody wants to get old. But unless you die young, it WILL happen to you!

I am 37 years old and still very young, but I really took that comment to be very offensive!! Maybe you should consider others feelings before you make a ludicrous comment like that in the future! There’s women and men of all ages that are on this site, because beauty is and comes in all ages! What is someone was to say ” The cream smells like an immature 20 year old!” I hope the Bum Bum cream helps you!

I received my box today, and the impression I got from the Eu2Be lotion is that it is a natural type of smell, or as someone posted earlier, “neutral.” On the container, it says there is “nothing superficial” and “just a hint of fragrance,” though to me it just smells like an scented lotion. It’s made from 13 fortifying oils, and made with 97% naturally-derived ingredients. I applied it to my hands a few hours ago, and they still feel hydrated. The natural smell isn’t necessarily good, but it doesn’t bother me. I look forward to using it on my body after a shower.

dmknapp

I thought it smelled pretty bad like rancid oil. What it really reminded me of was the plastic container I’m wondering if it was left out in the heat. I mean the smell is overbearing for me anyhow, even my cat smelled it and walked away. I was cleaning out my cupboards recently and I came across a couple of ramen noodles that were in the crinkly plastic you put them in the bowl and pour water on them and I decided to make one, it tasted like the plastic and when I smelled it that’s what reminds me of the smell of the lotion and I really think it’s the plastic container.

Rosamunde

DM, my Eu2e Cream smells awful also. I came back here to see if anyone else had commented. It smells just like nuts that have gone stale/rancid. There is zero “fragrance”. I applied some & had to wash it off after a few minutes b/c it was that bad. For a $40 retail product, I can’t believe this is how it’s supposed to smell. They wouldn’t have any repeat customers.
It’s one of the few full sized products & one I was excited about b/c I use body cream & lotion a lot. If it was a sample I’d over look it, but should I contact Beauty Report or the manufacturer about it?
Liz, any imput would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Phoebe

I don’t mind the scent in fact very little scent at all.

Reply ButtonReply

Carla

I agree! I used it on my full body today and the natural smell started out very subtle—I could only smell it when I deliberately sniffed the skin in my arm—and now it has completely faded. It’s definitely a good choice to pair with a perfume. Best part is that I like how it makes my skin feel. A little goes a long way, and the hydration lasts.

Julia

Great breakdown! I wasn’t excited about yet another scar away product (have so much from last couple boxes) – but seeing it’s only .82 cents makes me feel better, lol. Same with the Hum supplements which I don’t like the flavor of.

Got the two boxes I ordered (my first time with this box), and I love everything except the tingly lipstick and the Dermaflash sunscreen (I’m pale, and the heavy tint makes me look orange). The skincare value in this box is INSANE!!!!!!!!!! Literally ten times the cost.

Just got back on their circa-1997 web page and ordered two more boxes.

Reply ButtonReply

Michelle

I ordered another as well! Love the Dermaflash sunscreen and the Globiotics, as well as the Neostrata serum and Dr. Lima moisturizer. I’m getting more comfortable with the idea of the eu2be being natural/unscented, and I’ll use it when I want to wear cologne or perfume, I have so many heavily scented body products, this will be a nice change. Also, I only receive Allure now in terms of beauty boxes, so this will fill in the gap of not receiving Beautyfix anymore. So there. I feel like I’ve justified my additional purchase, and I’m set on skincare for a while … that said, if anyone wants to swap away their Neostrata serum or Neckletage, hit me up!

How does your eu2be smell?
Was anyone able to open the tiny tube of serum? I twisted and twisted and can’t get it open
The other serum is divine and I liked the face cream and sunscreen. I’m fair to medium by end of summer despite wearing sunscreen religiously, and the tint is fine.

Reply ButtonReply

Dea

My eu2be smells neutral – doesn’t smell spoiled to me.

The twisty serum: The cap does not come off. When you twist it, that’s an opening – just squeeze out without pulling off the cap. It feels nice on the face!

*** SPOILED Product Alert ***

The jar of Eu2Be Lotion smells Sour, Horrible and Rancid.
Is there a way to find an expiration date for it? There’s not one on the jar.
Who do I contact to get this replaced?

~ Did anyone else get a spoiled jar of this????

** Other than that:

I just got my first box and it’s packed full of great products! Thankfully the Dr. Lima lotion smells Fabulous. I love that all those tubes have safety seals on them. I’m actually able to use all of the products in this box other than the spoiled Eu2Be.

Thanks so much MSA for keeping us so incredibly informed.

I received 2 boxes and both Eu2Be were rancid. I do live in Texas, so my boxes traveled in heat. I contacted TestTube and they are sending a replacement. Don’t know if it’s the same product. Doesn’t specifically state I’ll receive 2. I’m just hoping for something useable. My favorite new find (so far) is the the Dr Lima barely There

Mine smells rotten /rancid also. I sent them am email. It’s definitely not a natural or unscented smell. I sent them an email since there is no way I’m putting this on my skin. I’m sad to see that it wasn’t just me with this problem.

Other than that, it really was a great box. I loved it!

I think ours must have been in a shipping batch that was in a State with high heat. That’s the only thing I can think of that would have soured this so badly since it is an all natural product without preservatives. I doubt it was sent like that since most of them seem to be fine.

I agree, other than this product, this box is great. I can use pretty much everything in it.

Kathy

Ugh. First box ive ever ordered from this company. Just ordered today. Sure hope this isnt typical, having expired ir near expiration products. Any feedback on this? N may I ask how long from ordering till u received the products? Also , just wanna verify that this is a one time purchase right? Im noy gonna b billed monthly for this right? Appreciate ur help n hope they get that replaced quickly for u

…no, it is not “normal” or “usual” for dermstore–the parent company of new beauty–to “sell expired product”…this is a reputable company, with excellent products, albeit a simply horrid order form-i’ve never had an issue, and there is nothing wrong with my eu2be, or my sister’s, either…who knows? maybe it got overheated somewhere along the shipping chain…maybe somebody doesn’t know what it’s supposed to smell like, maybe someone is over-sensitive with scent…maybe, just maybe, some people will find anything to bitch about, & cannot be made happy…trust me, i worked in food service for 20+ years, & there are many-women, curiously, most often-who just want to pay for a bad time…

don’t borrow trouble! if something’s wrong, there will be a resolution…&, christ, we got $300+ worth of stuff for 30 bucks…i mean, geez…these are the same people who won’t bat an eye at paying $6 for a cuppa, but it’s the ultimate insult if a $3 sample of a cream seems “off”…

calm down, people…there are whole nations with starving children…priorities, please?

and, yes…this box is a one-time purchase, it is not a recurring sub…

Michelle

Hmmm. Mine does not smell good either. Surely it’s not supposed to smell like that? I know New Beauty has replaced products in the past. Perhaps others will share thoughts.

Kathie

I don’t think anything we put on our skin is supposed to smell like this! It smells soured & rancid.

I turned my jar upside down. I found a number on the bottom of it which is probably a Lot or Batch number. Here’s the one on mine: 143043G

Maybe we can share those numbers/codes here. If anyone has one that smells good, please share your jar number. Thanks!

After reading everyones reviews and being referred by a fellow FFF friend/member I decided to give this box a try. I figured for $30 I couldnt go wrong n since its not a monthly subscription i dont feel “obligated” should I not care for it for whatever reason(s). Can u tell me how long they usually take to ship out please? Thanks n kudos to u. I cant EVER wait to open my boxes lol

Mine shipped on the 14th, too! I went in to look at the products more carefully on the weekend, and man – this is a GREAT box. I will use a lot of what’s in here!!!

I feel like I should order a second box before it sells out…I am surprised these boxes don’t sell out more quickly. I wonder why???

All those $100 – $300 beauty advent calendars are going to sell out same day and don’t nearly have the same value at all. I guess it’s all in the packaging???

I must admit I love the scar sheets I use to have deep crows feet and used the scar sheets and what a difference the scar sheets made ,really my crows feet are hardly there I love them .
I believe the scar sheets are in the New Beauty boxes due to New Beauty promoting plastic surgery ,And because the scar sheets actually work .Surgeons recommend them so they are a great addition .They can be reused but they tend to roll up on themselves.That is just my opinion It would be nice for the people who don’t want them ,and getting them box after box to bad New Beauty doesn’t offer a option instead of.
