Reminder: 1 Day Left to get the March Allure Beauty Box!

Thanks!!!

not loving this one so far, signed up early feb, never got my box, so now after several calls, will get the March box which I am not loving, prob because I wanted the Feb one – and of course it is too late to cancel. i have heard good things, but I am disappointed so far

It took a couple weeks for my first box to ship too. If you have any questions about the status Allure has a great customer service team. When I called they were able to tell me exactly what box was coming and when. They’re great.

I’m willing to bet Allure is so successful because they are are an established brand that beauty companies trust – they can leverage the relationship with their box subscribers and the relationship with beauty brands (that they presumably are VERY familiar with because those companies advertise in the magazine) to benefit everyone. So they can market their customer base (us!) to companies launching new products since their subscriber list is exactly the target audience that these companies jump through hoops to try to reach – open minded women interested in trying and evaluating new beauty products. These subscription boxes end up being tremendous marketing tools for companies trying to get the word out about new products. For example, putting fold-out perfume samples in a magazine is very expensive for companies and I’m willing to bet only a small percentage of those sample are ever used by the readers. Most are probably thrown away. That’s money down the drain for beauty companies. But the Allure subscribers are all about using new products so it’s probably more cost effective for these companies to provide more substantial products to a more targeted audience, Allure subscribers (probably often for free to Allure!) than to advertise and sample their products to a larger, more diverse, and much less targeted or interested audience. Whatever it is, I love it! Everybody wins!!

Thanks for posting, just got the same box and was confused by the quick arrival after the last one; it doesn’t say BONUS anywhere on the packaging, but since it’s neither Feb or March it must be a surprise extra!

I read in the comments for the Feb box that this is the bonus box. Nice bonus!

I’m betting that’s the bonus box. I got the same “your box has shipped” email but I never received a previous email from them telling me I was getting a bonus box (which many people did receive). Well, that box arrived yesterday and it was indeed the bonus box (yay!) so I’m willing to bet you have a bonus box coming your way as well. I must say, it’s very hard not to be totally impressed with Allure when they do things like this! (I actually wrote them a thank you note!)

I had the SAME thing happen to me! Wondering if the people that got the bonus box got the same wonky email with that same tracking number of ‘0’. Wanna know if I should be expecting the bonus box also 🙂

Hm, I’m not sure what you mean? When I click the link I see the $5 off your first month messaging. What are you seeing? Sorry – I’ll try to figure this out!

Yes, I reached out to verify with them, I think the cut off dates are moving up as the boxes are getting more popular and selling out! Hope that helps! 🙂
