I signed up in May and was charged…no June box, no July box. I’m disputing the charge with my CC company and will be cancelling. What a complete scam. I was never told I would be placed on a “waitlist” or anything. There’s no transparency whatsoever. I’ll take my money elsewhere.

I signed up 2 months ago, I didn’t get a may box, or a june box, and was told I would for sure get a july box. I have heard this box is a really good 1 but so far they have not impressed me. But if I don’t get a july box they can refund my money and I wil never try them again. Be careful to any who want to give it a try they say you’ll get the following month and it’s a lie.

Just logged in and talked to a live chat person on Allure beauty box live, she informed they have not released the information because they don’t know how much inventory they have. I signed up in May and still have received a box. She would not confirm if I will get one this time either.

Wow…this box has really taken off like crazy. It must be one of the most affordably priced boxes for the products they give. Good for them. And they listen because no leaks mean no expectations and less criticism. Perhaps they could do the one of two boxes? Course, someone will always want the “other” box. LOL. We should all have such problems…my product is sooooooo wanted by everyone…
b blanco
I think they have to start makeing difrent variations of the box like other subscriptions to prevent this problem… it just sucks they havent put out any spoilers because thats what makes it fun!

I was wondering the same thing. Typically they would be shipping the boxes about now and I haven’t seen a single spoiler for July.

So I just contacted CS online. I was charged on May 29, and my account says Last Ship Date 5-31-2016. But, no tracking info.
I was told by CS that “due to the overwhelming popularity, we no longer have stock of the June Allure Beauty Box to ship to you…” This seems a bit like bait and switch to me. At least with PopSugar, you know they are sold you before you order one.
I questioned the “last ship date” and was told that is the date they received my subscription. Umm, ok. That has nothing to do with a shipping date, so I suggested they change the wording.
I feel pretty annoyed because I signed up only because I’ve been wanting to try that shampoo. Now, who knows what I will get. But, I also learned from reading about last month’s debacle, that the box may just show up one day. Sigh…..

I havnt got my first box yet, it was supposed to be june, but they said I’d get july, but my sister in law has got may, and June’s boxes, and they were pretty good. But if you sign up you probably won’t get the next month’s box, it will probably be august. But what I’ve seen in her boxes they are pretty good.

Has anyone NOT received a shipping notification yet? I’ve been subscribed all of 2016, so I’m not a totally new subscriber. But I’ve had no shipping email for this box.

Hi, I’m a long time subscriber and I got the shipping notice with tracking number Friday, but the actual shipping was delayed and got my box yesterday(Thursday). This month aside, I usually get my box during the first week of the month and it arrives before they can generate the tracking notice! This box has been consistently good for me while introduced to new products and high end items. For instance, would never choose a purple polish, but I love it! The Purlisse products are wonderful. I know you are not a new subscriber but they are finally shipping–hang in there my friend.

Karla,
My review is great. Way better than my initial whining over the Kar-trashian product which was broken when arrived no problem. I am thrilled with the eye serum…one eye Pur-lisse and one eye Christie Brinkley…. Pur-lisse HANDS DOWN… love the mask and can’t wait to have a Sunday afternoon moment with a finger of bourbon.. and the nail polish (purple) is great for me…overall not a bad box…I wasn’t going to use the bronzer anyway. At least in my humble opine.
I signed up the first of the month. I just checked today via chat and she said they ran out. She also said if I get a refund that cancels my subscription. I asked if this issue will be resolved by July because I have read several negative reviews since I subscribed. Her response: it should be. Seriously!?!?

Not sure if this helps, but I have been getting Allure for about 6 months and it usually ships like on the 4th or 5th of the month and I usually received it around 10th. This time I received the shipping notice on the 10th and received my box yesterday. So it sounds true that Klorane from France was delayed (considering a lot of strikes in France…). I received purple nail polish (best choice for me) and orange coconut face mask. I was out of town for a couple of weeks, so I went spoiler free and June box is sure a little underwhelmed compared to May, but I am ok with it. I don’t use bronzer as I tan naturally in the summer, so I am hoping to use this as an eye shadow or lighter shade as highlighter. I love looking at pretty nail polishes, but I don’t usually get around to paint my nail…. maybe this summer, lol. And like many other said, I would have loved a matching conditioner for the shampoo to get the full experience.
I feel so bad for everyone going through with problems. Allure really needs to restructure their customer service and their website. Once I logged in and clicked something, I was double charged and received 2 boxes in one month. They have fixed it to make sure I only receive one box, but I am kind of afraid to log in now until I am ready to cancel.

Kay, I’ve been a customer for about a year and usually get early shipping dates (late arrival this month), great products for a value price and responsive customer service. I believe this is a couple of bad months in an otherwise worthy subscription. I’ve gotten free special boxes out of the blue, I never have a problem with billing, etc., but I am so sad for someone who is expecting a great little box, is billed and promised the “merch” only to be denied for one or two months. I don’t blame the CS reps, they are told what to say to the customer, and there are honest delays (striking French workers are a current problem which you astutely pointed out!) but management needs to be transparent and clear. I am hoping by August everyone is back on track. Release a statement, throw in an extra box and do the right thing. I emailed them about my distress doing business with a company who is failing their new customers but haven’t heard a word.

This box is a joke! I feel bad because so many people wanted the box and I did not. I told them to put my box on hold for the month of June and of course I received a box. The request was submitted over two weeks before I was sent a shipping announcement. They need to get their act together.

I know I should get over it but I subscribed last May 9th for the May box that I obviously didn’t get because this company just take new subscriptions greedily, even when they knew they are sold out. Eventually, I accepted that fact and rolled with the punches. Then I emailed customer service yesterday just to ask if I will get the June box since I subscribed May and it only makes sense that my account is now elligible for the next box (which they promised me the first time I contacted them– the same time when they said I will get the June instead of May since it’s sold out) And so, asking if I’ll get the June box, they said that they “oversold” again. Hilarious. So I guess I should hang out box-less for a couple months and be ok with it? When will it be my turn? Is it always going to be like this every month?
At least I’m not *that* stoked for the June box as I were for the May box so it’s not a complete disappointment again. I will just save my money for the July box (which I still may not receive).

SAME here! I subscribed it in mid-may, which I knew right away that I wouldn’t get the May box for sure, but that’s okay. When the preview of June box came out, I contacted the customer service again, asking if I’d get one. They said YES, I’d get a June box. I didn’t get the May box because it was overwhelming popular. Yesterday, I contacted them again regarding to the box, and they said unfortunately the June box ran out, and I’d get the July box instead…..WTH The customer service was really RUDE! He said I’d get the ‘next available’ box. I then asked him when would the next available box became available, he said he felt uncomfortable answering this because he didn’t want to promise anything…. *me sigh sigh*

Same, yet again! And the customer service reps were all quite rude and extremely unhelpful. I signed up mid-May and never expected I would not be getting the June box. I would say I’m not terribly upset based on this month’s spoilers, but I am angry because of the customer service! I asked if they’d be sending anything out since they “over-sold” the June box like they did for some people with the May box, and I got the total brush off. They said their policy is to send the next available box. I won’t even ask when that will be based on your experience. I would totally cancel, except I really want this box! Ugh, such dilemma.
Heidi
I same thing, when I asked if I’d get the june box when I joined I was told yes, then was told it would be july, they said it was like getting a magazine subscription, it takes 4 to 6 weeks, and I didn’t sign up for a magazine I signed up for he beauty box. Hopefully I will get the July box this time. If not I will be very disapointing cause I signed up a moth and a half in advance. I hope all of us get lined out with it. Allure looks like it is a good beauty subscription.

I called up customer service this morning and the rep told me there was a delay in shipment for a product from France and my boxes will ship this Friday. At 3 pm est, i get an email the box is shipped. There is some serious disconnect with the warehouses and the customer service. The website still says same info as last night with no tracking info. Wow wonder how they could continue to operate like this and still keep business.

Same Here! My shipping frequency still says 36 days but I have a tracking number. They need some help with the customer care page.
I signed up at the end of April, I didn’t receive my May box, was disappointed but understood it was in high demand. But now it’s mid-June and I have yet to receive June’s box. Just got off the phone with customer service and was told “oops, sorry we can’t keep up with shipping demands. You’ll get July’s box.” Really?!? They won’t even issue me a refund, and I can’t cancel until after I receive my first box. So they are holding my money for 90-days at this point, granted it’s only $10, but still ridiculous. The least they could do is offer a free month, or a past box, something to show that their customers matter. July’s box better be worth it!

Wait, so they won’t offer you a refund? Pretty sure that is illegal! I would call them back and ask to speak to a supervisor, if you haven’t already. I’m super worried because I called yesterday and they said I would be getting a box, but when I went to look at my account to see if there was any new info, then part that gives you info about your account now says that if I want to change anything on my account that I need to call or email. Which is super sketchy to me. I haven’t called yet since I’m at work, but I will after. I’m just so done with this company!

My account is the same way now as well. I signed up on April 23, I have yet to receive any information about when I might receive the product I paid for almost 2 months ago, and now they are apparently holding my account hostage. And they couldn’t care less. I don’t care how great their boxes are; at this point I’m done. I’m sure they won’t miss my paltry $15/month, and I won’t miss their horrid business practices.

Let me know how that call goes. I’m in the same boat as you and it freaked me out when I saw that on my account!

Thats my issue with them. I signed up in april for mays box, and then was told it would be june, now it’s june and I was told it would be july.but they should offer somethig for the misinformation we are getting. This is there last chance for me. I have other subscriptions that do whatever it takes to make sure I’m happy so I will stick with those.

Still waiting on my June box….called CS and was told one product is on back order from France which has caused a delay in shipments. This will be my third box. I actually have received my past boxes before receiving my shipment confirmation emails. LOL. I hope I don’t get the blue Julep polish, considering I received the blue Lauren B. polish last month. For those who have received their box, what mask and polish shades did you get? …just curious.

I called again today and I will be receiving the June Box in about a week. I mentioned that many subscribers have been given different answers about where are our June boxes since including me. I never got the May box. This will be my first Allure Box I am very excited. I don’t want to cancel because from what I see most products are full size and nice ones. So hang in there. Also if you enrolled at the very beginning of May 2016 you should be receiving The June Box..I am also waiting on Boxycharm.. They send out my box today. There is so many good products I can’t wait. ?

Ts what I got told the other day when I emailed asking when my box would ahip, then when I emailed today, they said I wouldn’t be getting the June box even though I was told I was. I don’t know I will wait aND see julys, but it better be good or I am done with allure. This is there last chance with me. This Is twice I was lied to.

So I signed up in April and ended up getting the May box. 🙂 I got charged for my June box on June 2. I’ve been watching the customer care page and at first the shipping frequency said 60 days and now it says 36 days. I really don’t feel like contacting customer support seeing all the problems other people are having. I’m just wondering if anyone that signed up in April is experiencing the same thing? I haven’t referred anyone to this box since the May fiasco because I don’t know when they would receive their first box.

I subscribed on April 23. Don’t get a May box. I didn’t call either and just waiting it out hoping for a June box. The status kept changing and yesterday it said 36 days frequency. I just logged in right now and it doesn’t say anything. That whole section is missing. There is a message saying to contact customer service if and changes want to made on the account. I really hate their website lol. Enjoy your May box, you are one of the few lucky April-subbers

From the comments, it sounds like a few people have had their info change to that message (mine included). I did just get an email with tracking though, so I’m not sure why they changed it? I was gonna call, but meh. I really don’t feel like dealing with their customer service after the work day I’ve had. This companies business practices are just incomprehensible. Nothing matches up and nothing makes sense.

I signed up in the beginning of April and received the May box as my first box. I was charged for my June box on June 2 also and my “shipping frequency” has done the same as yours. First it was 60 days and now it says 36 days. I called CS last week and asked about it since my May box was delivered within the first week of the month and the gentleman that I spoke to said that they are just shipping out late this month but assured me that I will be receiving the June box. I’m still a little skeptical because of everyone else’s comments and reports from CS, however, I am assuming that since I received the May box successfully it should have me in their regular cycle albeit a bit delayed this time. Fingers crossed I get some type of shipping notice or something soon!

frequency said the same thing and I subscribed may 20th, and it said 60 days now it says 36, and I was told when I joined I’d get the june box, and now they say I won’t get a box till july, so I’d contact them. But if it’s not right this time, I’m done, this is the second month I was told I’d gt and not getting it. I don’t like the way they do their subscription, they don’t even offer anything for being mislead.

Well in my case they did offer me a consolation box to make up for May but they never sent it. Meanwhile, others got it plus the May. Seems they are very disorganized.

They oversold the June box too?? How can they keep overselling months? I was thinking about signing back up for Allure after BB changing their points program. But their customer service seems to be lacking. Maybe BB and Allure can join forces! We could still receive points, and they’d have great customer service thanks to BB and maybe some full size items courtesy of Allure!

It looks as though Allure is doing a company overhaul as I have seen ads for a new head of their customer service department. Hopefully we will see better changes from the replacement person. Here’s to hoping….I subbed in April and still don’t have a box but I’m crossing my fingers that once they get a better system in place we will reap the rewards.

Ugh, I just called customer service, and one of their reps literally picked up the phone, then just left it off the hook. I said hello several times, could hear them breathing, could freaking hear other reps speaking in the background!! I waited several minutes thinking maybe they were doing something and then I told whoever was on the line that I could hear them…nothing. I finally just said “you people disgust me” and hung up. The rep was probably trying to get out of dealing with people, because while you are on a call, they can’t send you another. It really does disgust me. Luckily on the second try I got someone very nice who said I was getting the box (I’m one of those April sign ups) and gave me the whole spiel about France and it would be next week, so I’m frankly not optimistic. At this point, whether I receive the box or not, I’m cancelling. This company is the worst, and while some of their CS Reps are nice and I feel bad for them, so many of them are so terrible I wonder how they still have a job. And then I remember, oh yeah, they are working for Allure!

I have been a customer for over a year. Got my shipping info with tracking number Friday, should arrive today. I would say usually I get my box in the first part of the month before my tracking is even emailed. Obviously they oversold and mismanaged the subscription for many people in May & June. Getting charged and receiving NADA is very upsetting, but I hope it will work out with either special boxes or an extended subscription offered (or a refund) but when you start getting regular boxes as well as surprise free boxes, it’s worth the wait. Of all my subscriptions this one is a favorite by far so hang in there!

I AM SO BUMMED ? Here everybody is complaining about this box, and i didnt get mine thanks to the bank forcing these new chipped cards on us! My new card wasnt able to be charged for june & I So wanted this box! i tried to speak to a supervisor about it, told her i got 3 emails promising this would not be a problem, but by the time they realized it, they were out. So the H8ers got the boxes they didnt want and i missed one i really DID WANT.
BUMMED ?

No, even if your card worked, you wouldn’t have received the June box. You needed to sign up 2 months in advance for the June box (or so the CS claims to me, someone who purchased in May with the promise that my first box will be June).

Kelly
Ugh. That happened to me in December when they replaced my credit card. Fortunately at the time they still had boxes available when I finally realized that I hadn’t been charged. Apparently even with all of the complaining they must have been slammed with new subscribers. Hopefully you can find one on the swap site or eBay.

WARNING: BOX OVERSOLD, next box is July box.
I signed up in May, CS said my first box will be June box. 1st week of June, when I asked CS, they said my box will ship on the 2nd week; 2nd week of June, when I asked CS, they said my box will ship on the 3rd week. TODAY, when I requested a tracking number, they said I won’t be getting the June box at all because they oversold. They said I need to subscribe 2 MONTHS in advance to get that month’s box (ex: today I can’t sign up for August box, because I should have done so by 1st week of June already).

jess
Exactly! I signed up at the end of April and my first box will be the July box. I cancelled for financial reasons (new to subs and went bananas) and because one shouldn’t have to wait over 2 or 3 months to receive a first box! (Example: you sign up on April 10 and your first box arrives 3 months later in July.) Not acceptable!

Received my June box today, I was not sure about it at first, but I actually love it now! I got the April boho nail polish, beautiful color, I originally wanted the blue, but I think I will get more use out of this coral red color. The shampoo size is large, 2 Purlisse samples, eye and lotion. The bronzer is not a favorite but will give to my niece. Overall great value for $15.

Got my box today too. Not too shabby. Got the katie polish which is a dupe for me, but should swap well. Put up the kardashian bronzer and the eye serum as well. The rest I am keeping. the shampoo smells awesome and is a very nice size too. And well, a face mask of ANY kind is a win for me.
Am I nuts, but should I be expecting more? This is only my 4th box so I’m not sure what the norm is with it. lol I’m at 50% use-ability which seems good for a mystery box sub….
What is everyone else’s opinion?
