hmm this is such a boring box. I had really been admiring some of the BeautyFix’s lately but honestly that mystery box fiasco turned me off HARD from wanting to resub. so glad I stuck with that!

I really wish dermstore (boxes in general, really) would stop sending Avene eau thermale. I feel like I used to get great skin care for a great value but now it seems like all the great moisturizers and serums come in tiny sample sizes. Don’t forget why your customers loved you, Dermstore.

I liked how they had been including a tool, I hope they do next month. Three of the items are repeats for me, the hair mask, water and lipstick. Not very exciting, I think everyone has enough of the briogeo to last several years. I didn’t think it worked any better than my regular conditioner.

I’m really disappointed there’s not a tool this month.

The first few boxes this sub came out with were great and I kept thinking I would end up subbing to this. However, the last few boxes have made me rethink my decision. Not impressed. Where’s the value that was there when they restarted their sub through Dermstore?!? Totally underwhelmed.
After looking over a lot of past reviews and doing my research, I had decided that BeautyFix was on the top of my list for the ONE sub to add to my growing collection as a gift to myself in the new year. But while I’ll wait and reserve judgement until after I read Liz’s review in a few days, from these spoilers I’m pretty sure it’s a pass for me, at least for this month.
Now, do I find another box to add this month or wait til next month when BeautyFix will hopefully be better…¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I feel the same. I am quite underwhelmed. Two of these products have been stockpiled for 2 years. I think they are still purging old inventory. This one WAS at the top of my very discerning list till the mystery box fiasco. I thought that was handled wonderfully but I am not looking for old product at a deal. I want new brands I have never tried before.

Although this box has less variation, it has more full sizes. I like the Brigeo mask and besides Brigeo&Avene all products are new to me. The value is around $130 which is great for a ~$25 box. All in all, I am happy with it. Hope expiry dates won’t be near, I have a lot of similar products in use/circulation right now.

Do we know that these are all full sizes? The Avene and the Brigeo definitely are, and probably the hair product, but the BioRewind most definitely looks like it’s NOT (full size is 1 oz). And the Dermalogica, at this resolution I can’t make out the size at all – can anyone else tell? Full size is 2 oz.

Maybe I have gotten too many Dermstore boxes from my sub with them but have to agree that this box is “meh” compared to ones in the past. Oh well. Maybe just an off month with February much bettet

I loved my first few boxes that I received from Derm Store, the last 3 haven’t done anything for me.

Not a single thing I want. Will be putting complete box up for swap.
