FabFitFun Summer 2020 Box FULL SPOILERS!

you could also customize it next time you buy it so that you know what your getting, but i agree my first box gave me the cheapest things as well!!

Same! The cheapest items, across the board In the 3 categories I couldn’t customize. And I didn’t pick the most expensive in the other categories, so that’s not it. How can that be an accident when it’s literally EVERY SINGLE one, lol.

We are box twins and I felt the EXACT same way. I’m seasonal, so only got to pick the first 3 items. The rest was bottom of the barrel 🙁

Yeah, I noticed that I’m getting cheap crap as well. Brow pencil, I have so many. Makeup drop, I have a ton of. Hand cream, can’t stand coconut. Would have loved to of had the vase. Was not impressed with the last box and cheap things. May cancel.

Yes Cheryl! I’m a redhead too. I also received the three cheapest items from FFF, even though I’ve been an annual subscriber for a number of years now. I really wanted to try the perfume, too. Isn’t it almost impossible to find an eyebrow pencil that comes anywhere near matching our actual brow color? I was hoping that maybe this one would come closer than some, but my bet is that it will be too dark, as usual. Oh well.

Agreed. Ever since they let annual people choose so much further in advance it has been really bad. I rarely get anything i prefer. You are right. We do pay more! Maybe have a few luxe items for Annual picks that we don’t get, or something like that. Letting them choose one week or two in advance leaves us not wanting to even subscribe anymore.

Okay, so today is the 29th now, I thought they were all supposed to ship by the 27th? Am I missing something or is anyone else in the same boat as me? Super bummed cause I wanna see the other items I got and it just makes me a little anxious it’s not gonna come on time.

I was just going to reply about the collaborators and what they receive when I saw Jeannes’ comment. I still don’t have a shipping label showing up in FedEx, even though they’ve now had the seasonal boxes and addons close and a “surprise sale” end since I paid for mine!! Sorry I digressed, lol. Anyway, I’d be willing to bet the last 2 boxes of my annual plan, the only people who get the Murad and perfume are the collaborators. This is for the most part. There might be a smattering of “regular“ folks who get those things but, in my opinion, not many. I emphasize my opinion. I could be totally wrong!!!

I just don’t like the direction Fabfitfun has gone with all the variations that really started last quarter which causes box envy and resentment. It makes me feel bad about myself for being so shallow and yet that’s how we Americans have all pretty much been trained. When we all pay the same, we want the same treatment. I think it’s partly human nature.

I chatted up cs last night because I was curious on why the rush to have another sale when they haven’t even finished shipping out the first batch of summer boxes. She admitted that they “ for the most part” ship out according to the schedule. But it just depends on how the warehouse deems it necessary to get shipments delivered in the most efficient way. So, some select members with zero add ons could go first and this last week so could seasonal. Now, I wonder if they will start shipping this latest sale lol. I’m so sorry I started venting my negativity! I’ve just had so many issues over the years but the pros outweighed the cons. I’m so sad to admit it but I can’t say that any longer.

I got the same three items. For some reason, every time I read “universal eyebrow pencil” my eyes run it together into a weird portmanteau of “unibrow pencil,” which is probably not how they’d like that product to be marketed.

I got the same 3 items. I’m a bit sad because there were the three things I didn’t want. Oh well. That is life.

Re: “has anyone gotten murad”

I saw someone open their PR box and they were given the foot cream, the murad, and the makeup drop. I don’t know how the PR boxes work except that the partners can only make requests but cannot actually choose their items and that they get shipped out before anything else including annuals.

I would be careful with the Coola spf lotion… I have normal/slightly sensitive skin and that stuff burned and made my skin extremely itchy. It was in last summer’s box and they’re trying to get rid of their old stock that no one picked/purchased in the add on sales for a reason.

So, the satin pillow sleeve is a sleeve and not a pillow case. You’re supposed to use it on top of your pillow case. The point is so that it can fit on many different size pillows for example if you travel and the hotel has king sized pillows and your pillows at home are standard sized. Can fit onto both. I actually love mine. It’s one of my most favorite items in my box. It definitely keeps my curly hair moisturized and frizz free overnight. Hope that helps.

I agree it’s getting worse, too. I miss getting a “big ticket item” like we used to. So many add-ons are out of stock and it’s not as much fun any more. And agreed…no more hand creams! I’m beginning to look at other boxes out there.

To each their own, I guess. I haven’t liked the past FFF boxes I’ve seen and joined this time because I thought there was so much to choose from– and most of it NOT beauty products (I’m really particular about what I’ll use). I’m happy enough with my first 3 choices that even if I hate what FFF picks for me for the rest, I think I’ll feel I got my money’s worth, plus I picked up a couple little goodies in the add-on sale. Just sad I didn’t get the cooler bag! Just goes to show you we all have different opinions.

Yep. 🙂

I’ve used it and I can’t say that I’m that impressed with it. It doesn’t seem to irritate my eyes, but it hasn’t done anything to improve my lashes either. I’ve also tried applying it too my eyebrows without any results. It’s not something that I would buy again. If you have sensitive eyes, I don’t think it’s worth the risk!

I’m concerned the same thing happened to mine! It still hasn’t shipped but I havent heard anything final yet. My patience is a bit shorter with fewer distractions 😅
Hope it gets to you quickly! I am curious what’s in the bundle.

Yes, very typical. The bundle will be shipped separate from your summer box.

Yes, just make some excuse like you can no longer afford the box during to covid or something like that. Don’t say it’s cause you don’t like the products. They’ll immediately refund you if it hasn’t shipped yet (they take a month to ship so it hasn’t yet).

If that happens then you can message them on the chat function right away and they will refund you. However, seasonal subscribers don’t get to customise until Friday!

I’m receiving those three items as well. I wanted the perfume and everything else is meh. I’ll be giving all three away.

Crossing my fingers I get those 3 too. Very useful.

So have been subscribing since this started..and ONCE AGAIN..no notice to pick my choices..long time purchaser and not a bit of courtesy. Thinking this is my last box as the products are “the same” and no choice given

I got the eyebrow pencil, foot cream and hand cream as well. I won’t use the eyebrow pencil

Where in you’re account are you seeing your surprise items?

I had the same picks and they weren’t what I was hoping to get. Would have liked the Murad cleanser and Makeup drop. Oh well! I will list the hand cream and the foot cream once swapping opend up here again.

Wander Eye Masks
Foot Cream
Murad Cleanser

But the hand cream looks nice too.

The more I think about it the more I’d like the hand cream, foot cream, and eyebrow pencil. I’d also be ok with the cleanser or eye masks but I’ve still got some of those eye masks from the fall box lol! The other two items would likely go unused in my life lol. I’ve got fedex labels showing up in my fedex account but it hasn’t shipped yet so my three items remain a mystery so far!

I feel the same way!! I liked at least 2 items per section ! 🙂

Peel off masks in general are horrendous for your skin! Try to avoid at all costs. The peel off the top layer of skin, which throws off your body’s natural oil control. In addition to that, the majority of the blackheads actually get ripped in half as you peel the mask off… leaving half of it still in your pores and completely defeating the purpose. I would recommend looking into wash off masks 🙂

I don’t know if it’s good or bad for your skin, but I am seriously addicted to peeling it off and seeing the gunk that was in my pores show up on the black peel, like little gray wax spikes (sorry if that’s oversharing xD).

I only use it on my nose though, where I tend to get more blackheads, and it does seem to do a great job clearing them up. After I use it, my nose is a little more oily, like now that I’ve unclogged the pipes the oil is free to flow… Anyone else get that?

I love it. It will pull off all of your old dead flaky skin along with any gunk in your pores. It will also take some peach fuzz along with it. This mask is no joke. I have combination sensitive skin and it doesn’t flare it up. It does hurt a little coming off, though, I won’t lie. It’s not as bad as waxing, but it’s close.

Any time I have tried BLAQ it has seriously dried out my skin. So if you have oily skin, that may be a positive, but it wasn’t for me

May 15 ends on the 18th

5/15 – 5/18

Did you contact the chat CS to see if they would let you change a couple of them or maybe skip the box?? Worth a try (unless they’ve already packed/shipped it, they are pretty nice)
