Did anyone subscribe to the new Prospurly box? I’m so excited for it but now they aren’t shipping until next week!! Don’t they know how much we hate waiting! I also subscribed to Luxor Box.
Liz hasn’t talked about either I don’t think, so I’m kindof freaking out. Bad decisions?

I’m taking my kids and my DSLR camera to the beach today in hopes of getting a fun shot of them that I’d like to be turned into a canvas. Definitely will be editing the colors or making it black and white with editing first though. I love pictures with super vivid colors!

I received my code. I don’t know if I’ll redeem it. I haven’t found any pictures that I like. The quality of my photos aren’t great. I received a much better quality camera for Christmas. Maybe I’ll save it and hope I don’t forget. I’m not enjoying this. Sorry LLB. I’m sure there are many that will.

Do you know if photos from an iPhone are good enough? I don’t own a camera anymore!

I received my code last night. I have my children’s first finger paintings and I think I’m going to scan and use them for my canvas.

I got my code too and have until December 31 to use it so there’s plenty of time.

I love love love the sponge. I wasn’t overly excited about it but once I tried it I fell in love. It ia amazing!! My husband and son apparently also tried it and love it as well. Hope I will be able to swap for more as I want to have these on hand!
As for the rest of the box….shampoo and conditioner was actually needed because I had just ran out. Is it exciting No but will it be used yes! Plus I don’t buy myself luxury shampoo (I save my $$ for boxes) so this is a nice treat.
I am so excited about the print! We just had family pictures done!
Last the water bottle…..probably my least favorite item but again it is really nice.
I am pleased with this box and can’t wait for next month.

Oh no! I went to use my beautiful new Pink Kate Spade water bottle and it was smashed inside. I filled it with water and it all leaked out of the bottom!
I suppose I should just be glad I didn’t drink any, there could have been glass shards in it.

I hope they’ll mail you another one.
BTW, my daughter reports that, unlike plastic water bottles, this bottle keeps water fresh all day. She thinks it’s worth the extra weight of bringing it home from school (and she has a two-mile walk!)

Awful! I hope no-one else has a broken one and tries to use it. Check your bottles, ladies.

Love this box!! Question, the letter says to redeem the print using the “unique discount code”, I don’t see a code in the letter and there wasn’t anything in my box about the print at all, am I missing something?

I’m holding judgement on this box until I get the canvass print.
The stuff that came in the box didn’t make much sense. Shampoo, conditioner & a sponge don’t say “spa” to me. They say “shower” or cleanliness”. There are many other products they could have chosen for a spa theme, from bath/massage oils (or a massager), to a body mask, to cute spa slippers. What they sent was utilitarian rather than relaxing.
I got the pink water bottle, so to me it screamed pop sugar. My daughter loved it, however, and quickly absconded with it. Apparently glass water bottles are all the rage in the 4th grade.

The theme was “Here Comes the Sun”. I won’t say that the box followed that theme, either, but I don’t think it was supposed to be a “spa” theme.
Reply
nana
Actually if you read the letter that came in the box, they say that they “included some wonderful full-sized “spa day” items” so that you can have a relaxing spa day at home. Which is not a bad idea, but these are just not what I think of when I think of spa day.

This isn’t about LLB specifically but I got off the waitlist for swaps and I’m chicken to start doing anything on there. If you put something up and it doesn’t get swapped can you take it off? Any other info would be appreciated!!

The swap site is great! Yes, you can edit and remove listings after you’ve added them.

My box came as a total surprise before the spoilers were even up! I totally loved everything in the box. The water bottle got filled and went right in my purse and I took a luxurious shower as soon as I got home from work.
I pretty much imagined that the comments on here would be negative though, because the canvas is an intangible at this point. However, I, for one, am totally happy with my box. I can NEVER predict what is going to be in their boxes and I try to stay spoiler free so I can enjoy the surprise and pleasure of discovering the contents of the box, which are always nicer in person.

I love this box. I wish I had this box. This box is well curated. I believe it shows extra consideration that they sent matching full size shampoo and conditioner. And it shows consideration and creativity with the canvas. Each one will be beautifully unique.

I totally agree AR! I love my box! I loved last month’s box too! I also have good experience with their customer service. This seems to be a very unpopular stance, but I love this sub and I have great respect for the ladies that are working so hard to make this subscription unique!
Did I want the Orange hair products? Yes. Did I get them? No. Oh well. I tried these items last night and seriously, I don’t think my hair has ever felt so soft. My husband was even impressed!
I love what Sarah said earlier “I got the pink water bottle, which was my least favorite color, but realistically it is only a water bottle so it doesn’t really matter the color.” (I also got the pink bottle & it was exactly what I wanted)
There is not another sub box that garners the amount of criticism that LLB gets and I really don’t understand…

I’ve been on the wait list for LLB for a couple of months now – since the January box that looked so amazing. I saw the Kate Spade bottle and was pretty envious – until I checked ebay. I got the bottle for a little less than I would have paid for the box, and since I’m not interested in any of the other items, that seems fair to me. Maybe I should just do this instead of subscribe! Anyway, if anyone is looking for other bottle colors and swapping isn’t working for you, try ebay. I saw all three colors available.

Has anyone logged into your account and uploaded an image for the canvas print? It looks like you may not need a unique discount code, it asks for your order number. If it’s the same order number that’s in your account history, it may be available right now. I haven’t tried it b/c I have no earthly idea what photo to use. I need to think about it more and change my mind a few times first.

I am really looking forward to the April box. This box was ok. Received the pink water bottle and the Olivia products. These would not have been my first picks. I think the canvas will be nice and hope I can figure out how to get it. I hope the April box is a win as it sounds like from all the comments this box may be the deciding factor of keeping the LLB subscription going. I really enjoyed the letter in the March box and can’t imagine how hard it must be to come up with a theme and hopefully products that the majority of people will like. I do appreciate LLB’s efforts and genuine caring. I have an annual with French Box and not sure they are going to be able to weather the storm.

Although this months box is not exactly what I expected, I do like it because I will use everything in it. I got the pink water bottle, which was my least favorite color, but realistically it is only a water bottle so it doesn’t really matter the color. I got the orange hair combo, and I am happy to say they are cruelty free. The sea sponge is cool, but mine is the strangest shape, plus I am also worried it is going to come apart, it already looks like its peeling. I actually do like the print idea but it is pretty complicated. I was hoping for something from farm house fresh this month. I know they can’t make everyone happy.

I totally agree. I got the blue water bottle and it has a green lid, which I feel like it clashes. Still, I feel like a million bucks while I’m walking around sipping water out of my KATE SPADE WATER BOTTLE. I’ve been totally parading around the office with it like a lady with a new engagement ring (“oh let me scratch my nose JUST SO so you can admire my ring”) LOL

An email with your code will be sent at the end of the week. LLB also sent an email in the latter part of yesterday with more information. Check your spam because you don’t want to miss out!

I’m giving them one more month then cancelling if I’m not excited about next month’s box.
I loved how January looked and about went crazy trying to sign up for February. I haven’t used anything in the box yet besides the earrings (which are a pain in the butt and keep bending!) I really didn’t want glittery bath salt… Maybe I’m just too picky, but I don’t like the variations I’m receiving.
This month I got a pink water bottle (which is hand wash only, boooo!!) and the olive shampoo. Just not super thrilling to me. The canvas is a cool idea, but also a bit of a pain. :/

I received the oliva shampoo does anybody know if this is safe for color treated hair I tried looking it up but did not find anything?

I ordered and paid for last month, but it was never received. Then, I got billed for this month. When I asked why I didn’t get the previous month, they said I canceled. Well, if that were the case, you would think I wouldn’t be billed this month. They did refund last month. When I got the box, I had no code for the print. Am I missing something? I saw mention of the code on the letter, but nothing but the products. That being said, the only thing in the box I liked was the water bottle. As someone said earlier, shampoo is too individualized. As for the sponge, I will put it in the gift pile. I have my own loofahs. 🙂 Glad I actually did cancel it this time. I’m so sad. I was looking forward to this being a really cool box.

I don’t want my code, but i can’t figure out how to find it. You can buy or swap it if I can figure that part out. When I go to the site, it just wants my email and order #. I don’t have any pics that will work. I take them all with my phone. lol

Thanks for responding Becki, I hope we can work something out.
Little Lace Box said that they will be emailing the code to each of us individually, which is why none of us know what the code is yet.
Becki
I didn’t know I had to join the swap site. So, I have sent a request. Once I find the code, I’ll post it. Does anyone have an idea as to where they are?

Well I got my box, and it is a bit lackluster. I got the turquoise bottle, with the Oliva shampoo/conditioner. I was secretly hoping for the gold glitter and the orange shampoo, but c’est la vie. I didn’t get the combo I was hoping for last month either, which is a bit of a bummer. I still enjoy this sub, though I do agree with the sentiment that the past couple of months items haven’t made sense with the theme. I hope that this is just temporary, and that things will get back on track in the coming months. I think maybe they grew faster than they could manage, but since they have closed new subs for now perhaps they will get back to the LLB we all loved and were all clamoring to have!

I canceled after getting this box. After last months box with earrings I would not wear, and this months box with a water bottle and shampoo and conditioner, bla. I don’t want to take a chance and spend $39.95 on another box I might only use one item in. Rather get another popsugar limited edition box when the next one comes out. Ever since January the customer service does not seem as good, I’m still waiting for responses from emails I sent months ago. I tolerate Popsugars lack of customer service because the boxes are always consistent even though I might like them all. Yet to spend another $39.95 for customer service that is lacking, and a box I’m just ok with and not wowed by, I have no desire to do.

Try Facebook. They seem quicker to answer there. Tho, you can’t just post. You have to comment on one of their posts.

I also opened it spoiler free and I’m meh. Everything is alright, nothing blows my hair back, but maybe it will be soft and lovely from the hair mask. Oh I’m so not a sparkly gal but the gold or even the blue would have been better than the neon pink because I am even less a pink person. (Anyone want to trade for pink…ha ha) However between all my subs I have accumulated a workout dvd, yoga towel, jump rope and now this water bottle…I see a great fitness gift basket in the future for someone. This is how I look at these boxes…not will I personally be able to use them but will they make great gifts and save me money in the process…and this one does. The canvas print will get shipped directly to my mother for Mother’s Day, saving me that task alone is worth $40 right there.
My biggest irk is that their themes have fallen by the wayside. There seems to also be a decline in customer service that eventually seems to happen with all these companies as they grow. 🙁 Not throwing in the towel yet.

I posted this on the swap site also on hold for Kristi or Bets. My user ID is 2760. (I don’t want to post my email publicly here.)
