No temptu or bronzer for me please. I’m fairl and couldn’t use these producrs. The blush and highlighter I’m jonesing for!!!! Fingers and toes crossed. I wish boxycharm shipped sooner, because I would like to use the products at their peak of popularity and trend.

I feel you on the paleness vs bronzer battle, there’s few and far between that work, and only in summer. however I am a Macgyver of makeup and find that bronzers will work as a subtle eyeshadow look. I have to agree with you on the temptu thing, not sure how the world I’d make a liquid bronzer work on my ghost face. Maybe we all should message them that this brand isn’t something we’d like ( I have yet to see someone excited to get it, so that is more than some people not wanting black eyeliner or perfume if EVERY user is like..eck please not that one!)

I want the temptu…but that’s only because I am hoping it’ll be super shimmery. I can’t really tell from pics or video :/ I am a sucker for shiny things. Lol.

Pale girls checking in! HAHA That #CopyPaperSkinToneStruggle is real uh please gawd no bronzer!!!!.. I love all things OFRA though so that would be where my hopes are…

I have been eyeing that OFRA highlighter for solo long. Fingers crossed that I get it. That would be amazing!!!!! and the Cargo bronzer would be my perfect match! Come on Boxycharm let me get the OFRA highlighter and Cargo bronzer!!!!!

I want the Ofra highlighter so badly! It’s been on my list of wants since it came out. I’ll probably end up getting the Temptu shimmer bronzer since I don’t like liquid products.

I honestly don’t mind the variations in boxes as long at the RV remains roughly the same. Boxycharm is head and shoulders above the competition when it comes to this aspect..ie Mally eyeliner vs Mally brush. Compared to Allure a few months back where I received an ELF brush vs the Mally eye brightener that was spoiled previously. After two years I am consistently happy with the products I have received. Not to mention their customer service has been awesome. My March box never arrived and it was promptly replaced without question. There has always been slight product variation, and the gamble with a subscription service is that certain items/formula/shades may not work out for you specifically. I honestly am hoping that I don’t receive the Temptu bronzer, but if I all I was hoping to receive was the Cargo blush or Ofra highlighter I would save my $21 and apply it towards one of those purchases. Just my .02 cents 🙂

I don’t want that bronzer either, which in my expierence means I’ll get it. You never know maybe like last month, I’ll change my mind when I see it. I didn’t get my box until the 29th so I’m preparing for a long painful wait watching youtubers open thiers. Haha 🙂

I wish boxycharm was able to give everyone the same boxes also. I don’t know if they have limited amount of some products, but everyones pays the the same for the box so i feel it should be distributed the same. I agree with other people as far as all the people that subscribe to Boxycharm you just cant please everyone. I am also one of the women that wish not to get no more red lippie. Red lispstick, gloss, lip stain etc is just one of those colors that just does not look good on everyone as we know by some comments and trust me it dont work for me either. Dont get me wrong, I love Boxycharm and I also realize and get a little disappointed when I get something I wont use but that’s the way it is and I still like it alot thats why Im still subscribed to Boxycharm. They just can’t please us all but they do a very good job at trying, and the box is worth every bit of the $21 I pay a month.

Yes! I unsubscribed to Sephora Play for this very reason…. I was so mad about the box variations!! Boxycharm too. I had my heart set on the Mally blue eyeliner and got the awful brush ?

I love Boxycharm but for the love of God please stop with the differences.Its just not fair, please please let me get the ofra product I just can’t do another bronzer.I think I’ve had enough of feeling slighted by box envy . I just don’t want to do it anymore,I love the brushes but I got them when I first signed up in January.They are very nice brushes so some lucky winner will be getting a nice Xmas present

Actually I was thinking the same thing about the temptu bronzer until I saw their snapchat, ( it’s still on.) you can be used as eyeshadow or primer. Checkout their snapchat,

Ofra, please!!!!! That really the only one I want…but bronzers are so summery. Odd timing in my opinion.

Janet
Ugghhh. I’ve received 3 of those 4 items in other boxes, and the one I haven’t received I’m not interested in. I have naturally pink cheeks so can’t use blush or I look like a clown (NOT a good look! 😉 ) and I have a small drawer full of bronzers thanks to summer subscription boxes. Unfortunately I didn’t cancel in time this month…oh well. I can always use extra brushes, though.

Stockpile the things you don’t want (especially full sized) for the holidays and give them as gifts. Cuts way down on my holiday budget. 😉

Oh boy… The variation continues. I really hope I don’t get the Temptu. I breakout like from any kind of liquid makeup I put on my face. Even primers break me out. The “sensitive” skin and “acne prone” stuff even breaks me out. Otherwise my skin is clear and nearly perfect, I don’t get pimples or have acne but let me put any liquid makeup on and I immediately bump up. Really hoping for the Ofra or the Blush but anything besides the Temptu will be fine. Fingers seriously crossed.

I’ve noticed when I use anything for acne I Get acne! This one mask just about killed my skin for two weeks! Ugh I am better off with normal skin type. The primers mess me up too. The only foundation can use is Clinique so the rest goes to my aunt and friend. ?

Yes!!! So Excited I wanted more bronzer I would be happy with any of them!!!!

No temptu, no temptu, no temptu!!! I don’t want this just like I don’t want another red lippie from boxycharm.

No temptu here either, please. I think Boxycharm is by far the best beauty subscription, but I agree, let everyone get the same items.

I’m so tired of receiving those those little Temptu copper colored shimmer bronzers in sub boxes, I never use them. Plus I received enough powdered bronzers this year to last me two lifetimes of summers. I absolutely agree with you, Deborah – please send me no more red lipsticks, red lipglosses or red lipliners, either (… or mascara or dry shampoo….. the bane of this sub addicts’ existence!) I like the pretty rose gold Luxie Brushes shown here and have gotten several other styles in that line this year, and this set is new & I will definitely enjoy adding them to my collection & will use them. Hope I get the Ofra Beach Blush.

I think I might go crazy waiting to see what I actually get this month. I hate not knowing what to expect. Makes me bonkers. I would like the Ofra highlight and the Cargo bronzer.

Any of those would be great. So happy I started subbing to this box. ❤️❤️❤️

I don’t want the Temptu just because I already have it from BB and don’t really care for it. I don’t even know someone to give it away to. *fingers crossed*

Kill me. I’ve loved boxy so far and I know they can’t please everyone all the time, but summer is over! I HATE bronzer and highlighters. Unless it’s the blush, this is huge let down for me.

Thankfully they released a 2nd spoiler, doesn’t tempt me anymore. I don’t use bronzer at all and tired of Cargo in sub boxes. (no offense, just not a big fan)

Really? I love Cargo products. I have only gotten a few shadows and a blush in boxes, but have purchased a pretty good lot of it from stores. They have GREAT lipsticks!
