Beauty Fix August 2015 Spoilers

I got my box yesterday and I love it! Everything looks great and is new to me so I can’t wait to try them all. Good sizes too!!

Is it weird that I like to try things that aren’t for my “type”? I have dry skin (winter especially) but I don’t mind trying products for oily skin in summer. And I have wavy/frizzy hair that I usually straighten but will still try volume stuff just to see what it does. I don’t purposely buy these things but if I get them in subs… Why not?

I am getting this box, but i wont be using the Medicelle redness relief. If anyone wants to swap for it, I will use the actual sale value ( $30 ) instead of the retail value ($60) for swap, as long as u are also not strict on RV too. Hit me up on email above

This month’s box isn’t doing it for me. Everything is for an issue or a skin or hair type I don’t have. The patchology seems like it is for everybody, but other products are for thinning hair, hair that needs volume (my hair tends to be poofy), blemishes, rosacea… wrinkly undereyes. As for the Bliss, I don’t use foaming face washes either. I think I can use the Glytone. (Of course, we have lots of face washes don’t we – I’m still using the Firmarine, the DHC oil, that other one that I can’t remember the name of that had glycolic in it). I might try the thinning hair shampoo because my hair likes protein, but I don’t think the conditioner will be moisturizing enough.

Some of the things they’re sending this month seem like good products – if you have these particular concerns or if your hair is of that type, etc. Oh well. Plenty of things that were for my type (or color) hair or skin, but not everybody’s, have come around before (like the hair oil, Smart Brow, DevaCurl).

I used my men’s shave cream this morning. Love it! Oh by the way, my mom said that there used to be only men’s shave cream.

How do u cancel this box?? I can’t find it anywhere. Thanks

What the heck is gwp?

I am interested in seeing the sizes of the products. I hope we get a lot more full sizes… This box is practical which is fine because shampoo and conditioner is always stuff I will need… But I don’t want trial sizes. Once I have the box in my hand and see Liz’s breakdown in terms of value then I will determine how I feel about it.

The August box is now up instead of the July. I got the July box for half off but cancelled because there’s no way I would have paid $25 for another like that. I saw this spoiler and decided to subscribe again. Since I just moved I was able to use an alternate email address and sign up a new account and get the August box for half off!

Dermstore loves to repeat brands (sometimes products) in their beauty boxes and mystery boxes and this box is no exception. They have such a wide variety of brands on their store. Why not more variety?

These spoilers look good to me.

AWESOME box!! Definitely redeeming themselves for last month’s disappointing box (even then, their box is consistently way better than Glossybox, which is about same price…)
I’m super excited, will use everything. Phew.

The product that interests me the most in this box is the Medicell Redness Relief Hydrating Cream. When I did a search on the Dermstore site I found this item and the exact same item called BeautyFix Redness Relief Hydrating Cream. The ingredients are exactly the same. I checked another Medicell product and again it had the same exact ingredients as the BeautyFix product. This leaves me wondering. I have been waiting for the BeautyFix box to include a BeautyFix item but I guess they already have.

I am interested in trying the mask and volumizer so that makes the box worth it for me. I know I don’t care for the Bliss product which I find too drying. If the shampoo and conditioner work well and plays nicely with color-treated hair, they will be the perfect size for an upcoming trip.

When will we be able to buy the August box? I canceled in July after that joke of a box. I want this box now

I would like to get this – has a few products I’d like to try and it is a good value but when I went to the site it doesn’t show the August box up yet.

I think Beauty Fix did a good job of redeeming itself after last month’s fiasco. This box has an approximate RV of $168+, the highest so far for this type of box – and that’s giving the Smart Eye product an RV of $28, which is what it sells for at Target. Even if you use Amazon prices rather than retail prices, this box is well over $100. So I am happy.

And I’m also happy with the product selection. I can use all of them, which is quite rare for a box. So good job, DermStore!

Anyone know why only the July Beautyfix is available on the site? I can’t find the August one for purchase, but it added the July one to my cart.

Hi All, Just spoke to Customer Service and the following products are Full Size:

•Paula’s Choice Daily Skin Clearing Treatment
•Alterna Caviar Clinical Daily Densifying Foam
•SmartFX Smart Eye Wrinkle Lift
•Medicell Redness Relief Hydrating Cream

i am so totally happy about this box.
the moisturizer gets great reviews and retails for $60. and it’s FULL SIZE! plus i love paula’s choice and am happy to have something powerful around for monthly breakout days. really digging the bliss brand, will give the eye cream a chance, and keratin shampoo/conditioners are always used. basically, the value is more than there.
anymores, beautyfix is predominantly a skincare box. and it has major value for skincare. if you’re a skincare product junkie (i totes am), this seems totes worth it.

This box looks pretty good to me. Can always count on BeautyFix to replenish my supply of cleansers, and I’d expect people to be excited about the Alterna, though that’s not a kind of product I’d use. I do wish that Bliss face wash came in the last box, along with the Bliss mask they included.

I just cancelled mine…I needed to cut back on some boxes and this made the decision easy.

Wow I’m so sorry to hear about all these issues with Allure. Sample Society /Allure Beauty box is my favorite sub box. I was a Sample Society customer for years even before Allure ever had any part of it. I don’t know if that has anything to do with it. By that I mean I don’t know if new subscribers are having more problems than subscribers that just transferred over. Hope you guys get your boxes soon. I will consider myself lucky that my experience went a bit smoother.

I guess I’m the minority here, but I think it looks great!

Glad I cancelled! This box is not tempting me at all to resub. Really surprising you would have thought they would have gotten better after Target acquired them.

Hmm. I had subscribed to this box when it switched to BeautyFix, and liked the first few boxes, but was pretty disappointed last month. I cancelled after last month’s box, partly because I thought it was important to communicate to them that the box wasn’t worth $25 (what regular subscribers paid) and also because I figured that part of my disappointment was just that I am on product overload.

This box looks okay, but I don’t know if it’s enough to get me to re-sub. I have tons of cleansers and moisturizers, and I have tried that concealer and didn’t like it at all. So I may sit out this month too.

I’m interested in that mask, but I think we’re getting it in the MizFit box this month.

Has anyone tried, and would highly recommend, any of the products in the box this month?

Thanks Liz. I have subbed for over a year. And last month I did not cancel in time. But this month I did. Thank you.
