Cancelled my subscription after 2 months of bronzers (one of which broke in shipment, and Boxy customer service hassled me about a replacement) which I can’t use, cheap brushes, and for this month, an eyeshadow palette that clearly had been swatched. The fingerprints were clearly there on the eyeshadows. They also didn’t honor the credit/coupon that I used from this site, when I first signed up in October. I hope someone who’s been on the waitlist enjoys the boxes, but for me, they weren’t worth the price. Even my daughter who is a make-up freak and quite knowledgeable said the products were terrible overall (other than maybe one nice piece per box).

Umm that brush in the middle looks so similar to the brush we got last month…? It’s ok though because I’m always more impressed in person.

I thought the same thing Ellen! But I suppose a girl can never have too many brushes! lol

Beth

5 months and still on the waiting list!!! And this box I would be extra excited for. They have enough product to replace broken items, but not fill waitlist. Each month That I don’t receive ‘that’ email, I lose respect for this company. It’s frustrating to read how new subscribers get in immediately and some, like myself get skipped over constantly.

Wow, I’m in shock hearing about this waitlist. I was never on a waitlist. I signed up on a Sunday and received my box 6 days later in November. Also for Boxyluxe all I did about 2 weeks ago was hit the upgrade button and no waitlist for that either, just a message saying to make sure I continue to subscribe and I will receive Boxyluxe during the month it’s sent out. I wonder how it’s figured out who gets on a waitlist?

Beth, I was on the waitlist for 3 weeks not as long as you but the boxes are worth it! Boxycharm is the best makeup I have had! I am excited for it every month! You can use your messenger on facebook to get a hold of them thats what I did it was faster. But boxycharm is worth the waiting and Yosef Martin is awesome and cares about his customers.

I would email them and ask about the wait list. Tell them how long it been. This month at the beginning of January me & my daughter both signed up. We both got put on the waiting list. By the next week we was both off & got the January box. I had emailed them right away asking how long i would be on the list. 5 mths is a really long time.

Beth –
Make another email account & try sign up again. Some people do that so they get 2 boxes. I think 6 months is too long. Good luck 🍀

You definitely need to email them and complain. Let them know that you have been on the waitlist for 5 months and have seen several people get off the waitlist in a month or less so this is bull crap. It will take them up to 72 hours to respond, but I guarantee if you do that they will take you off the waitlist for next month. I can’t believe you have been on there for 5 months. I subscribed at the end of October (around the 22) and received an email that I was off the waitlist on Nov. 1st so literally only on the waitlist for a little over a week. & that has been during your 5 month waitlist time frame. Something isn’t right. Please email them complaining and letting them know that you have been on there for 5 months and I guarantee you will get off for next month.

I signed up on Jan 10th.. was waitlisted.. then got an email on jan 12th saying I was off the waitlist. I was only on it for 2 days. Then the 18th my January box was sent out. I would contact them because it makes no sense why you are on it still. I did prepay for 6 months so I don’t know if that takes priority over monthly or if 12 month takes priority over all. ?

Nicunta

Well, I was off after 5 days. In that 5 days, two friends used my link to sign up as well. I wondered if that could have had something to do with it?

MzBev

you should email them about this. No reason you should have been on the waitlist for that long! Email them soon so maybe you can get the Feb box.

Nicunta

I’m so sorry!! I thought it was odd that I was off after only 5 days 😟 I would call and be like wtf?!

Sheanae

Wow! Either something is terribly wrong with the way they are getting things done, or they’ve had a massive amount of people subscribing over the last few weeks. I subscribed November 5th and my first box was the December box. I’ve also seen where people have subscribed in October, and say they are still waiting??? What??? 😱 I’m sorry you are having to wait so long. I am loving the boxes, so far, I hope you get off the waitlist soon. It will be worth it!

I echo what you wrote! I Love my Boxycharm. I never complain because even if I don’t get to use 1or 2 of the items received. There are 2that I Do! We have received 3or more of Dr Brandt Beauty products. I’m in Love with my Primer 😍😍😍😍😍 Thank you @boxycharm

Let’s not forget I get to try brands that have worked well with my Latina olive skin tone.

I totally agree. We receive five products and basically the entire box is paid by one of them. The other four are free! So why not donate what you don’t like to someone who would appreciate it? Instead, I read so many complaints every month! I’m so happy with my Boxycharm… if you’re not, please unsubscribe and let other people enjoy it!

Laurel

Obviously, you haven’t dealt with their customer service team (if you don’t already work for them.) The box is great but they do not have it together professionally or know how to appropriately resolve subscriber issues. I’d rather have a cheaper box and feel good about the company I am supporting.

Chris

For all of the people complaining that they have “too many” brushes or palettes or lipsticks I urge you to cancel and make room for the people dying to get off the waitlist. In case you forgot this is a BEAUTY subscription. You will receive multiple palettes liners brushes blushes…because that’s what a beauty subscription is. Now I know people like to complain but I for one LOVE BOXYCHARM!! I get 150$ worth of product every month for $21. Amazing products I might add. Even the ones I don’t use are given as gifts are donated to people who APPRECIATE IT. I live for the spoilers and am thankful we even have a boxycharm to subscribe too! So in closing, instead of crying you are sick of this or sick of that please just make room for future charmers. I can promise you there are many many many people in line that will appreciate how amazing BOXYCHARM IS!! ❤️❤️

Amen!! I am just now receiving my second box. When I saw the first spoiler of the brushes I was so happy. I love makeup brushes! Then I start scrolling down the comments and Im reading nothing but negative feedback, complaints and disappointments…it slowly crushed my excitement….literally. Not saying I let people affect my mood but what a bunch of Debbie downers…seriously just unsubscribe.

Just waiting for the spoiler for another brown lipstick, since that seems to be the only color BC thinks I need. I have a pile of brown lipsticks from my past year with BC (I hate brown lipstick with a passion)…think it may be time to cancel, cause I just can’t get excited about this mess anymore.

Reply ButtonReply

justmissjamey

Exactly…i get brown, brown grey (I had no clue that was even a color) nude lips that don’t look like I have anything on. It’s truly disappointing because lips are my “thing” and they don’t seem to switch it around or rotate the colors for subscribers. I would LOVE to get reds, berry, anything, I mean anything other then browns and nudes.

Does anyone know of a good lip sub?? I just cancelled lip monthly because the things they sent were NOTHING like what the photos showed they sent. I’d like to find a decent lip sub each month.

Reply ButtonReply

Dawn

Notoriously Morbid has a monthly lip subscription, called Mystic Mattes (I think? If not, it’s close). Website says one special item just for subscribers and one other full product. Nice bold colors. There is a waitlist. Don’t know how long it is. Even if you don’t want to subscribe, you can buy makeup that isn’t the special subscription colors anytime, I get my eyeshadow from them. Thecompany is a small owned business and lipsticks are hand poured (per website) I would buy more lipsticks from them but can’t have anything with coconut oil or a mystery allergy I can’t pinpoint.

Good another spot for someone on the waitlist!

Anyone have usps state boxy was delivered but you never receive the package? Similar thing happened last month but it did end up turning up after the “delivered” status. I don’t want Boxy to think I’m crying wolf when I haven’t received the package at all. -_-

With Boxycharm do we ever get foundation, or powders this is my third month. Just wondering I’m kinda hoping for it.

They don’t do foundation because its not a personalized sub box and it would be IMPOSSIBLE to get everyone’s shade right. We have gotten a BareMinerals setting powder in the past. I don’t remember which month but it was last year.

Reply ButtonReply

Anya S.

Meh…if I really wanted those cheap brushes…then I would buy them myself. I have been thinking of getting the 3 month subscription to boxycharm, but the past couple months have been ‘meh’ looking for me. So I think I’ll skip.
Boxycharm puts wayyyyy too many “filler” palettes(its like they just throw in a random palette just to make it 4-5 products) and highlighters. I don’t want nor need makeup brushes either. Suuuurrre, you get some cool expensive products, but what the heck do you do with the rest of the stuff? Store it? Gift it(even though you spent your hard-earned money on the box)? Forget about them? If I got this box, I’d honestly use about 2/3 of the brushes…I don’t know, I feel like i’m rambling…

Is boxycharm a waste? Like, is it really worth it? Because I feel like I have all the makeup that a girl could want/need, but subscription boxes are fun…

Donate what you don’t want to a woman’s shelter. Most times they leave with very little and I’m sure some makeup would be appreciated.

Reply ButtonReply

Melissa

The womens shelter is such a great idea.

Sharon

Crown brushes are good quality. Their palettes are also not ‘fillers.’ They are also sold for full price at major retailers. Pur Soirre Diaries for one. We have recently gotten some awesome skin care from Dr. Brandt and some very nice lip products from Tarte. We’ve also gotten MAC items in recent boxes too. They always have high end brands for us, and I love the fact we can try them for very cheap (full size too) before repurchasing. You never know what you can find that you will absolutely love. I rarely get things I don’t like, and when I have – I go to the swap groups on Facebook or gift the item to a women’s shelter.

If you don’t like boxy charm then unsubscribe and give someone the chance to be taken off the waiting list!

Stacey

I don’t think you would enjoy it. It sounds like you aren’t a subscriber but you don’t like what they offer so why bother? Save your money to buy just the products you want and leave the spot on the waiting list for someone who is excited to be a subscriber.

Yesi

subscription boxes are a hit or miss. We aren’t all the same. I would gladly gift or trade with my girlfriends item that may not be for me

Reply ButtonReply

Jen

Me too! And I also make donations to the women’s shelter every few months. I have 3 sub boxes so the stuff I won’t use, I put aside and every couple months i make up cute little makeup bags from either ipsy or the dollar tree and get some travel sized personal care items and put a few makeup items in each one and the women love them and are so grateful. Someone else also mentioned seeing if there’s a local LGBTQ shelter and donating there as well. I dont feel like its a waste of money when something doesn’t work out for me because I can gift it or donate it and it makes me feel good. Even if i only use 2 items and give away 3, I always get more than double what I paid for the box so its a win all the way around!

Jackie

Boxycharm, to me, is a great way for a beginner to grow a makeup collection quickly and not spend a fortune. I love it because as a single mom, I can’t afford to go spend $100+ on makeup but for $21, I can get the value and get some amazing products as well. Boxycharm is more for trying out different brands and products and shades you wouldn’t go out of your way to buy. Its not personalized. Your not going to get things tailored to your preferences, its not about that. If you get a shade of lipstick that’s not right for you, but you love the formula, your likely to go out and buy that product in your correct shade. For a makeup addict like myself who can never have enough palettes, highlighters, brushes, etc. I’m thrilled with everything I get in my boxes. But if you’re picky, and see getting products not tailored to your exact preferences as a “waste of money”, then boxycharm is not the subscription for you.

melanie711

Why are you subbing a box to sell the products? I don’t think that’s the idea. It’s to try new products and get amazing finds and deals. Their CS is very frustrating but what we get for $21 compared to other beauty subs is pretty unbeatable. Sure, if it’s something I won’t use I donate it, pass to family or friends or swap it. But if you belong to BC just to sell the items I totally agree with you. Time for you to give it up and let someone on the waitlist have your spot who enjoys makeup and wants to learn and try new products.

Siren

It really is the person’s decision what they do with their box, enjoy it for themselves or sell it. It is not up to anyone to decide the ethics of a membership. That’s silly.

Chris

I agree you should cancel. Why are you subscribing to a subscription box to sell things anyway? That’s not what the boxes are meant for… they are meant for people who love makeup and want to try new things. If you want to sell makeup buy it wholesale and sell on eBay!!

Omg, I didn’t receive my January box my mailman lost my box! 🙁 I’m so bummed I didn’t get my box because of this. I am willing to purchase your box. How much will you sell it for.

Jackie

Send them an email. My box was lost last year and after going back and forth with Fed Ex and the post office, boxycharm said they replace 1 box during your subscription so email them! You already paid for it, you shouldn’t have to buy another one!

melanie711

Fedex lost my box. So I email boxycharm. Come to find out it’s the replacement bronzer that came broken last month that was lost not my January box. But I have spent hours trying to get a resolution because I thought it WAS my January box. It’s become a joke. She got back with me two days ago saying your bronzer is on the way with the original tracking number that is lost!! And stay charming! I emailed her back and said you have got to be kidding me. That is the same tracking number we’ve been discussing this whole time. I haven’t heard back and am pretty much going to give up! If you email boxycharm they will replace your box but only one time during your membership. Which I find ridiculous. It’s not our fault fedex or the post office loses it!

Candice

I cancelled and will let someone else have my spot. I used that $21 to go towards the new Morphe palette instead since I can get so much out of it. The black brushes they sent a couple of months back look much better than these. I love boxycharm but you are right I have enough for right now and am spending money on storing the makeup rather than wearing it. I need to stop.

Reply ButtonReply

Christine Lynch

I let my Boxy go for a few months for the same reason. Most of the palettes that they send are not full use palettes, so I don’t use them and I am up to 5now. All though, I still use the highlighter and contour palette from IBY that we got last May, but that is the only one. I a also more of a skin care person and I have found that Allure has been knocking it out of the park these last few months. This month they have a full-size Sunday Riley serum ($85 value) and the next few month’s boxes are looking pretty good too. I will keep looking for Boxy spoilers to see if they have anything worth buying, but Allure has been earning my money lately.

Kathie

I agree. I already have tons of brushes and don’t need more. I cancelled. I have enough palettes and highlighters to supply a small country. Time to take a break.

I don’t know about elf, but Crown manufactures and private labels brushes and other products for many other brands. I think Morphe may make some of their own brushes now, but they used to all be private labeled Crown brushes, and at least a lot of them still are.
