If I’m a new subscriber, and I want it all. Will it cost me 35.00 or more? I’m confused

I am a new subscriber (just today) do you think I’ll get the option to choose May? Or will I probably have to wait until next month’s to start out? Love your blog by the way!

Thanks for the blog love! I think they will send you the intro Maven box this month and then your regular subscription will start with the June box. They have awesome customer care though – if you let them know you want to start with the May box they will probably make it happen! 🙂

Thanks so much! they allowed me in this month. Unfortunately the upgrade was sold out, but that’s fine. I switched and went with Boho Glam and added on the trio Oh Lady Be Good.

Yikes! I’m such a sucker for the theme (they know what they are doing – marketing-wise!) that I upgraded + Etta, but I’m hoping I’ll decide to be good before the 24th and switch to Boho Glam.

I got it ALL!! Plus an add on of Etta. I’ve never upgraded but I could not pass this gorgeous set up. I’m so glad they don’t charge until the 27th because I’d be screwed if they charged once you “saved” your changes. I’m so excited!

I chose Modern Beauty box – I seem to be in the minority but I’ve been getting alot of nail polishes lately and thought it would be a nice change. It’s great we can chose the box variation each month!

After much debate, I also chose the modern beauty box with Paris, Alice and Coco as add-ons. I do like the ability to switch it up as well. I don’t think I’ve received the same box twice with the exception of modern beauty because I got that last month too. Maybe I should switch my default profile lol.

Not happy about the lipstick. I have too much already from other sub. boxes that I’ll never wear. Chose It Girl this month.

I got the bombshell box! Was thinking of upgrading to the whole collection but after buying yesterday’s haute look box and wanting to get the allure box Tues I have to hold back!

I think I’m skipping this month. 🙁 It makes me so sad to skip because I look forward to it each month, but I don’t wear lipstick at all, so getting 3 is kind of a waste on me and I just don’t love the It Girl Colors. I do love the Boho colors, but I don’t want to spend the $20 just for the 2 polishes.

I’m in the same boat. Kind of sad to skip. I would have liked the lip scrub but will never wear the lipsticks & the only like the polishes in boho.

While the lipstick line is new and exciting, I cannot see selecting a box with three very different shades. I’m a pale red head and only very light peach shades work for me. So, I went with the It Girl box and added Etta and Zelda!
In the future I hope I can add on just one shade of their lipstick. Dark lipstick just isn’t my cup of tea.

I’m sticking with my default this month – Boho Glam – such GORGEOUS colours! I added on Etta – that green polish for this month.

So does the The Jazz Collection come up to $55? I’m a bit confused.

Liz Cadman
Yes – the regular $19.99 plus an additional $35.
Hope that helps!
