I *just* got billed today, the 4th of November for this tube. 🙁 I thought they had forgotten me or I got glitched in their system lol.
I think the only item I wouldnt want is the shower gel, otherwise I’m down for most of it.
Hopefully I get some good variations being as mine looks to be in their last billng/shipping phase. Anyone else get billed this late?

I got mine yesterday. I love mine too! A great mix of quality, useful, and interesting items. I was happy to receive the hair mask instead of the dry shampoo. I got a klorane shower gel, which is fine. And the lipstick is really good– feels good, lasts, and beautiful color that wears down to a stain.

I love everything in the box but the hair mask. I’d love to trade for the dry shampoo. I’m on the swap site if you’re interested!

I just received my box and was pleasantly surprised. The products smell great (I received the hair mask and body wash) and although I didn’t want the beige lipstick because they typically make me look like a corpse, it looks beautiful when used with a darker lipliner. I think this turned out to be a great box!

I don’t subscribe to this, but I think it looks like a great box. A bit of makeup and skincare for different parts of the body. Also, brands that I have never heard of (I mean that in a good way). It is a good “discovery” box.

The variations makes this a cancel for me. I understand growth however maybe variations for new subscribers or give current subscribers a choice. Like previously said can’t please everyone. So this time I’ll keep my cash and decide again in January

Any one who has read my comments knows that I am a huge Test Tube fan and sing their praises regularly. Always new products to try, always skin care heavy. I would say the the last box and this box aren’t the most exciting boxes ever but they are reputable products, and Test tube has been my favorite box ever. I wanted to be wowed, I am not but I look forward to seeing this tube in person.

Well when I tried to skip one month due to increase medical bills due to juvenile diabetes and meds costing $295 a month , which is outbid my control , your CS at new beauty was pretty much too bad .. you have to cancel
That very poor CS no empathy no understanding , yet it’s ok to skip for vacation or whatever !!
Wow I never forgot how inconsiderate your CS was too me!!
So too bad , so sad for you and everyone I tell SMH
Claire
Thank you NBTT, I left a message on your site and received a notification this morning that this upcoming box will be skipped. I appreciate your timely attention to this matter and look forward to receiving the January edition.

While they do read the comments on here, it’s probably best to email or call them. Here’s the info: [email protected]

While I am not thrilled that I can’t skip with an annual subscription, customer service has done their best to make it right. I have always gotten a quick response from them and when I received a damaged item, they quickly sent me a replacement. Good luck with skipping the box!

Thanks Vicki, NBTT got back to me right away and I was able to skip the next box. I find their CS is friendly and prompt in their responses.

Looks like a good tube but please no variations. Sub companies should understand that no matter which “variation” a person gets it wont be the one they want so there will be disappointment.
Reply
Tanya
Then they would have to severely limit how many subscribers they could have and there would be wait lists and you guys would freak out about that. No matter what they do some of you will find a reason to cry. If people didn’t subscribe to every single box that comes out opening a million different accounts to get every variation maybe they wouldn’t have to.

How do you figure that? Macy’s beauty box doesn’t have variations, and they manage somehow.

….. there you go………. that’s it exactly!!! I stopped subbing to any box that does variations ….. wasn’t worth the headache…..

What I appreciate most about new beauty is that every tube seems to feature at least a few brands or specific products I haven’t seen in other sub boxes. It really is my favorite ‘discovery’ box.

Will miss this subscription, since it just doesn’t have what I’m looking for the past couple of tubes. It is a great experience, usually, but needed to cancel and will keep an eye on future tubes. Cannot believe this also has variations now, too. Wish companies realized that a lot of people like some surprises, but after being burned with some pretty bad orange lipsticks from OTHER boxes, I’m just not up for color variations.

Hi All,
I spoke with customer service and the lipstick is going to be either Brooklyn Beige or East Side Rouge.
Reply
Susan
Thanks. I’ll most likely get the Brooklyn beige, dry shampoo and lotion🙄 all three are the variation I don’t want but surly will get because the is the laws of beauty sub boxes 😂😂

I have Empire State Violet (love, definitely in my top three lipsticks) and chocolate raspberry (nice formula, shade is good but not a love on me.) If I wasn’t already pretty full up on makeup and skincare from various boxes I would be tempted! Laura Geller is one of the only places I’ve bought from after discovering them in a sub box (blush in a boxycharm, I think it was.) But Brooklyn beige might be a tad too brown and East Side a tad pink for me. I pretty much have to stick to mauves and purples.

Yes ☺ They vary per tube!

This used to be my absolutely favorite subscription even if I didn’t like a couple of the items and the rest of the items made it well worth it and I have found numerous items that I never would’ve tried if I hadn’t been for the subscription that I now use regularly. That being said the past couple boxes I’ve had to cancel because they’re just hasn’t been anything in it that was even remotely interesting. I don’t expect to get a full-size Sunday Riley or Perricone item in every box But that does set the standard pretty high for future boxes and the value just hasn’t been there the past couple boxes. I wish subscription companies would realize that around Christmas time we often have to make hard choices and maybe they should save their stellar boxes for that time of year because I just can’t justify spending the money on this one without one serious hero item. And after the last box is completely useless facial item that required you to take it into another location that well yeah I don’t even need to get into that because it was just a complete cluster

Is it the first time TestTube is doing a variation? Not a fan, lol. With the tax and shipping, this box will be like $40 box for me, so I have to have at least a few full sized items that I am excited to try. I skipped for this one.

Meh. I’ve been less and less impressed with this subscription with each tube. Ready to let it go when my current subscription runs out.

I think this looks like a pretty good box. I hope I get the hair mask, not the dry shampoo, but the Klorane variation doesn’t bother me too much. The razor looks interesting and the peel gets fantastic reviews. I’m happy enough. I like the inclusion of the lipstick, because I’m a lip junkie, but I wish we knew what color was coming.

The Shades vary per tube: Brooklyn Beige or East Side Rouge 😊

Dry shampoo doesn’t work for me, so I’m really hoping for the virtue treatment mask instead. I’d also prefer body lotion to shower gel. I’m not real excited about this box, and the variations could make it a complete dud for me.

Oja
This one is a win for me! It looks very practical, I think I’d use most If not all of these items. That peel looks intriguing, I’m always looking for something to help with acne scarring and hyperpigmentation. Has everyone already been charged though? I skipped the last box and haven’t been charged yet so I’m wondering if they cancelled my account instead of skipping.

Ugh I hate when its this or that. Chances are good I’ll get what I don’t want/need. I love Test Tube but it drives me crazy. Like Boxycharm used to have a box snd that’s it now they have up to 20 box variations 🙄🙄. Simple is all we need. Hoping for a good Test Tube
Reply
Michele
So many “or”s in this one. Could be a great tube. But could be a dud. I dont use dry shampoo ( and there is a possibility of getting 2 in this tube!) and I already have my shampoo and conditioner I use, so getting either is pointless for me. Lipstick could be great or a total bust. I skipped the last box, if I dont want this one I will have to cancel. 🙁

Susan
I know. I don’t use dry shampoo, don’t like brown/beige lipstick and don’t need lotion….so per usual that will be the tube I get LOL… fingers crossed it’s not a dud 🤞
