BoxyLuxe March 2021 Spoilers Round #3!

I’m canceling too

I remember when Luxe was actually something I was so looking forward to every few months and now… I just resigned up a month ago or so but after this I might have to cancel again I guess we’ll see when I actually get the box. I received my starter December Luxe box and the 4 items I received were blah. I knew since I’d already received a regular box I’d only be receiving the starter but I expected more since December seemed to have some decent products in their box.

I’m actually excited about the heat brush, but I definitely don’t like that it’s from a predatory company. I can’t straighten my hair with a traditional flat iron due to arthritis in my hands, and the heat brush that I bought from Amazon about a year ago has recently started not working as well (which I guess is to be expected for a $30 no-name product). I chose the heat brush specifically, because I was actually about to buy myself a new one.

I’m a bit disappointed in the palette though.

I’m considering doing a last minute-ish cancelation of Luxe and just going for base. Spending that money on whatever else. Or nothing. (But probably other things. Lol)

Anyone want to weigh in?

Well that’s the most boring pallet I’ve ever seen and then there’s that completely random blue color? I’m stoked about the glow recipe serum, but super disappointed to see yet another Luxe box ruined by another garbage pallet.

Also- have any of ya’ll looked up the company reviews for that Soleil brush? *cringe* Apparently that’s the company behind those shady, piranha like salespeople at the mall who physically pull you to their kiosk so they can harass you about flat irons. I read like 50 complaints about them just making up prices on the spot based on what they think you’ll pay. Several people also said they were a victim of bait and switch- they’ll use a really great steam iron on your hair to get you to buy, but the iron the put in your bag is a cheap piece of garbage that breaks after a week. Of course they don’t do refunds. I hate it when boxy uses these absurd retail valuations and tell you that the product sells for $250, and it’s really not cool that they’re partnering with such predatory companies.

They said that we’d be getting a Beauty Bakerie palette, so what is this?

Another bait and switch.

It’s always something! The basic box is getting Lime Crime, Glow Recipe, Too Faced and some other nice items. Why would the “luxury” box get a palette that’s from a virtually unheard of brand? The color story is also miserable. I’m pale, so those colors will blend in with my skin. *facepalm*

They kept showing us full size heated brushes and hair accessories, so we thought that would be a luxe choice. Nope. A mini brush that is $15-$30 by other brands was offered instead. We didn’t even get the new model that’s available. Boxy is incredibly shady.

That palette is not luxe. How very disappointing! The new Ipsy X bag had a Huda palette, at least. Boxy Luxe gives us…. whatever that is. The Bee Beauty London website comes up as extremely basic, single-page as far as I can tell, and has a grand total of TWO items. This palette, and another. Boo-hiss.

Disappointing. So many of the shades are exactly the same. I expected more from Boxyluxe.

Oh no! I thought we were going to get a well known brand palette I could see this maybe in a base as a great bonus but for luxe… no go. =[

A few questions lol I’ve never received lux. If I upgrade now, will I get to choose anything? Will they charge me now or at the end of the month? Also, I chose the glow recipe banana soufflé for my base and I really want that cus it’s for redness. I wouldn’t get base the month I get lux right? Is there anyway to get both?can I keep my base? Ughh y do they make it so difficult?!!!!! I’d have to open another account and get lux through that one huh? Then I bet they’ll send me all old crap I already have ☹️.

I signed up for the lux and got to choose 2 products. But then got an email saying I’m on the waiting list. So I don’t understand if I will be receiving the lux box. Has anyone faced this before?
Do you think I will receive it this term? I really hope I do. I really love the products they are offering.

I just signed up for the lux. They made me choose 2 products. But I got an email that I’m on the waiting list. So now I’m not sure if I am actually getting the lux box?? I reallly hope that I do. I really like the items in lux this term.

Can someone tell me if they’ve been in this situation and if so, do you think I will receive lux this term?
Fingers crossed 🤞

That palette looks like a Morphe palette, and that’s not a compliment.

I love Lauren Mae Beauty’s videos on YouTube where she edits down this type of giant palette until they make sense.
