FabFitFun Fall 2019 Review + Coupon

I just re-subbed as a seasonal subscriber for $25. I chose the scarf, the Kate Spade lunchbox, and the ear crawlers (because the lava magik was sold out, which was annoying, and which you can’t find out in advance). But the ear crawlers will be a good gift for my son’s girlfriend if they don’t work for me. Have no idea what I’ll get for the other choices, but for $25, it’s a good deal. The RV of the Aveda product alone is more than $25, and since I use a curling iron every day, I look forward to trying it. Not sure I’ll stay subscribed though.

The only product I really, really wanted to know about was the Lava Magik. But that was hardly a “review” if you can even call it that. “I like the scent and use it twice a week”? 💩

I have to give FFF some love. I saw a commercial and decided to subsribe to FFF. This is my first subscription experience. Then I decided to do some research and my first thought was “What have I gotten myself into”. After reading several reviews I saw there was a Laborday code where you not only got $10.00 off but a Mystery Bundle. I chatted with CS online and hey honored the new code and added the Mystery Bundle! My Fall Box shipped within a week of my order much to my surprise after reading all the horror stories about deliveries! I got my box today and am very happy with all my goodies. I did have a Mystery choice and received the Deep Exfoliating Glove and Dermelect Sleep Serum. My Mystery Bundle has not shipped but is showing in my orders. I am so happy with FFF that I signed my future daughter in law up last night with the FALL50 code! I hope this kind of service continues!

And….. I am so hooked now on all the subscription choices….. thinking about BOS and PSMH😀 This really is an addiction😜

Ordered with the Fall50 code. When I saw the offer I jumped on it. I always think of my DIL as I don’t need any more stuff (household items in particular.) Some of her Christmas shopping is now done… 🙂

I selected the flat iron and now it says I’m getting a mystery item??? Mystery item wasn’t even an option for that category I’m pissed if the straightener doesn’t come tomorrow

The amika hair straightener was the one item I was looking forward to, and it’s lousy. I’m going back to my old one. The Kate Spade lunch bag is too small for lunches. I do like the make up and skin care choices that they offer; but the non-makeup stuff is pretty disappointing. I won’t re-up next year.

This is my third box after I got an annual subscription. I have been fortunate enough to get everything on time, nothing missing or broken, and I have been pleased with the products & selection. I will probably not renew simply because I just get too much stuff already. Reading about all the problems, complaints was a real bummer. I enjoyed Liz’s review and going forward I will stick to the reviews & skip the comments.

Mystery bundles never peak my interest. FFF has A LOT of crap. And from past experiences they use the left over crap to make their “mystery bundles”. If it was anything mind blowing, they would let you know what it is. That way they would sell many more than they do without revealing what’s in the bundle.

I signed up yesterday but noticed the amika straightener is not available so I used live chat to cancel. It was a complete nightmare. she kept telling me that they absolutely do not do any cancellations and that since my credit card has already been charged there is nothing she can do. It was 5 minutes after I signed up and I had not even completed picking the items! She said instead of canceling she would give me $5 off the next box 🙄 I told her I know for a fact they can cancel and refund my money and she put me on hold for a while and then told me that I was really getting a good deal because it was over $200 in items for only $40 and she doesn’t understand why I wouldn’t want to keep the box. I told her because the jewelry and the makeup and skincare brands that they carry are overinflated retail value and usually they are brands that no one has even heard of. I told her I have no interest in a cheese tray or a ridiculously overpriced scarf and that the only thing in the box that is good is the Aveda damage remedy and that is the only thing I would use so it is not worth it for me to get this box. Finally after putting me on hold yet again she said she will go ahead and respect my wishes and cancel my order and issue a refund.

I love he fff box. I will use all 8 items and at $6.25 per item, it’s a great deal! I love trying new things from them. I discovered I couldn’t shower without the cubes, for example, and got 4 bottles. 😂

I have had missing and broken items and shipping issues, but usually it’s for other sale or add-on items, so I have seriously scaled back on those, to avoid the annoyance of having to contact CS multiple times.

For a lovely, reasonably priced box to try new things, it’s my favorite.

I forgot to go in and make my choices so I was dreading opening my box. I got a full size Exfolikate as the mystery item(didn’t want any of 3 choices, but would have never chosen mystery), detox pads(would have chosen), pure c(again would have chosen), trestique (would have chosen), aromatherapy (1 of the 3 that I would have liked) so it turned out to be a great box for me!

Must be awesome to get these subscription boxes for free just for giving a good review of the box and items I closed. I’m disabled with nothing to do all day. I’d love to get stuff to review.

There has been a delay in shipping. I only recently received my summer edit box. It got to a point where I was convinced it had been stolen or delivered to the wrong address. Maybe the fall boxes got out quicker but there has definitely been issues with them switching out fulfillment locations.

To be honest, this is one of favourite FFF boxes to date and that was totally unexpected! I went with the mystery item and received a Dr. Brandt facial cleanser and Dermelect foot treatment cream. Couldn’t be happier! Also went with the ear climbers, Nassif MD detox facial pads, and Wander eye masks, all of which I like a lot. The only misses for me were the Aveda hair product and the Trestique eye crayons (I chose the latter because nothing else in that tier excited me) but both are giftable so no loss. The overwhelming majority of the items in this season’s box are big wins for me so, despite an iffy Autumn themed curation, I’m totally pleased.

Liz, it’s “morning routine”, not “mourning routine”.

Fall was a huge disappointment for me. It’s basically a bunch of random stuff tossed into a box – the scarf is nice, but that’s about it. Those cubes are utterly ridiculous, I used one in the shower and am tossing the rest away. The salt/pepper mill is attractive but not well-made, I’m sure it will be broken within a few months. I loved the summer box, this one was a real letdown for me. Here’s hoping that winter is a good one – the hint of a faux fur blanket cheered me up some.

I skipped this box. I either have it (lotion/lunch bag) or don’t need it (scarf/salt shaker).

I got this box and immediately cancelled. While I liked a lot of the things, I thought the *HERO* item was going to be the Amika hair tool. I love a lot of Amika’s product, shampoo,conditioner, dry shampoo, hair mask etc. BUT this straightener is the worst one I’ve ever used! It grabs your hair, makes it stick, and pulls it out! I am a pro with a straightener, I curl my hair with it! This one was terrible and I feel like I should just chuck it. Very sad about it too

My initial love for the subscription concept was the idea of getting a swag bag of treats, for little or nothing. The thrill of getting a goodie bag when buying something from a department store makeup counter…
This is spending $50 at TJ Maxx, without going to TJ Maxx, and limited product and the thrill of discovering something on your own.
Little discoveries for $10 is much more exciting than useless choices for $50.

Their blow up dishonest retail value of the scarf has turned me off from FFF for life. Items are way too often blown up in value but, this one probably is the worst.
As well as some getting shipments really late, the flip side to that is, some have received as many has over a dozen.. which of course isn’t a negative for some! Lol… But wow, FFF has some serious issues lately.

What is a hero item? Never heard the term before. It wasn’t my favorite box, but I didn’t hate it, honestly. The straightener alone was worth the cost, and I’m using the lunch box daily.

I was not looking forward to this box at all, but once I got it, I loved it. I got the flat iron, which works well. Not high end but it does the job. I love the Aveda hair cream. I got the lunch bag which I’m going to gift. I really like the lava makic, the body cream, the sugar cubes, and the aromatherapy roller. The only meh is the eyeshadow sticks – they crease very easily on me. It’s not exactly fall, but I’ll use everything.

I did not get this box but if I received everything that Liz did I’d be very happy. I’d use everything except the lunch box. Now I’ll just try and swap for some of the items.

I think FFF missed the decimal point on the retail price of their scarf. Instead of the ridiculous price of $75, I think the true wholesale price from China is .75 cents and their retail price to consumers is $7.50…a fancy shop might be $17.50.

Seriously FFF, anyone with half a brain can see the ridiculousness in this price….

I used to love this box, and fall was the most anticipated. Nothing about this box says fall and it’s glaringly TJ Maxx, no hero item. I cancelled after 4 years and have zero regret. I would love to see FFF get it together again.
