Definitely not excited about this month’s box. December’s box didn’t knock me out of the park, and this month’s box seems less than average. Some people, me included, already got the same shade of highlighter in the highlighter duo. I do like it, but it’s not my favorite and I have so many other highlighters I enjoy more. And no offense but, I’m not into the fan brush hype–I bought one a while ago and it never dispersed my highlighter or anything. Not a fan of the suede matte or anything in this box, honestly. Will most likely be reselling mine.

I just got off the waitlist for this box – This will be my first Boxy Charm 🙂 I’m surprised I waited this long after as many subs as I get lol I didn’t realize the loot I was missing! I really wanted last month’s eyeshadow palette – I collect those like crazy for some reason. I am nuts about those and spend money like a crazy person on them :0 but I signed up too late and got waitlisted.. and then of course I had to look at the Boxy Charm site and see the past bags, and look at the Vintage Rose Gold highlighter from a couple bags back. I had to have that! So I ordered that! Nuts I tell you.

I seen the first unboxing on YouTube. There’s a perfume and face sponge as well. The bronzer seemed super orange!!

They’ve posted about that here on MSA already, the variation that included the perfume. I imagine the way most youtubers swatch things, it may be more pigmented looking than a lot of people would use it anyway. If that’s one of my items, I can’t say I won’t try it, but I’ll use as light a hand as I can.

This is what the swap site is intended for because there is nothing in this box that I, my family or my closest friends can use so I cancelled and will be swapping the contents. Thanks for creating the swap site!

Not going to.lie boxy charm is a little hit and miss, but with that said I usually find one item I like which makes the 21 bucks worth it. In the long run I have saved so much money because I’m not constantly at sephora or ulta. Yeah some items are okay but I have also received items I love. This in the end makes it worth it for me. And the items I don’t love I use for travel that way if I loose them.or they break or even get lost I’m not upset.

Last months box was the worst box for me. I only liked the IBY lip liner in coca. I hated the gathic lip stick and the magic eraser that was the size of a tampon. I have short nails and fat fingers. The polish looked like dried blood color. To dark for me. The palette was just ok. This months is better so far. I did like the Vintage in a past box. An I do need a fan brush. Just as long as I don’t get any repeats unless it’s a hand cream or face mask I’m ok with that. I have a pale olive skin tone and black purple lipstick makes me look like a vampire and the polish gave to my friend. Looks good on her.

I may be the only one, but I can’t possibly compare Ipsy to Boxycharm. I’ve subscribed to both of those and others, and found that ALL of the monthly boxes will cycle through certain brands and products. If I get duplicates, I gift them to friends! Don’t forget-it’s a $21 investment! And without MSA Spoilers and Reviews (thank you, Liz and Friends❤) it would truly be a surprise! Try not compare yours to theirs…it always cycles around! Boxycharm is an amazing value no matter which 5 items you get! ✌🏻

This will be my second Boxy charm box and to be honest Im dissapointed. I am excited about the highlighter just bc this is my 2nd box and I did’nt get the one a few months ago. I will be excited about the brush if I dont get the crown one. I hate crown brushes. Also I don’t do anything with my nails so I hope I dont get the nail item either. I wont mind the body butter, but bc I do stock up on lotions and such it wont be something Im crazy about getting. So over all this is a ok kinda box. Maybe they needed a cooling month bc of all the previous eye pallets they have been giving out. I wish I had signed up earlier to get the previoud ones. I am addicted to eye pallets more than any kind of make up! So I will keep my subscription for now, but if the next few months will be like this box I might reconsider.

I love Boxy charm. One item pretty much pays for the box. The value is always so good. I have cancelled every box except this one. If I can’t use something then my daughter can use it. I think Boxy charm does a great job. Not sure how they can send out all they do each month for such a low price. I love it!

I am sooo excited for the Vintage dual highlighter. I was bummed I didn’t sign up in November because I really wanted the highlighter now I’m getting 2 in 1! It’s my absolute favorite highlighter and I have tried a ton!

Wendi

I think I will cancel after February I’m hoping the Valentines box rocks!
I wish bixycharm asked our skin tone because I don’t use bronzer but would love the body butter and nail treatment!
I’m confused about the fan brushes I’m sure I will get the cheap one I always seem to get the lesser box:( while the YouTube beauty bloggers who get their boxes free get the cool items:(
I’m still kinda upset I got the highlighter even thought it is beautiful but I really would have loved the marula oil and now good grief we get the highlighter again but double this time?
I’m loving ipsy instead and we got to pick one item in ipsy this month!

How did you get to pick an ipsy item? I didn’t see or hear anything about that!
What item was it?

E-mail ipsys customer service regarding ipsymatch and tell them you’d like to pick an item for your next bag. Liz created a post here on MSA regarding how to pick an item for your Feb glam bag. It even has a product list to choose from. I’ve been picking an item for 3 months now and you are able to opt out of 3 items if you’d like. I’m more into makeup so I requested to opt out of face cream, hand cream, and nail polish 🙂

really how do you get to pick one item in ipsy this month? I hated my bag. So many things I wanted and I got not one of them. I’ve been with them three years. It started out great but is really going down hill.

Contact the Ipsy care team on the Ipsy site and tell them you have heard about being able to choose an option for your Glambag…I selected a makeup brush because the other items I currently own. Good luck!

Jackie

All you do is e-mail ipsys customer service and tell them that you’ve been disappointed with your bags and that you’d like to pick an item so your guaranteed to like at least 1 item you get. Liz posted a thing on the MSA page about how to pick a Feb item for ipsy. I’ve been able to pick an item for the last 3 bags. Ipsys customer service is amazing and they try very hard to ensure you love your bag so send them an e-mail regarding ipsymatch. On the post Liz made, it has the list to choose from for Feb. And you can opt out of 3 items if you want

Susan Riley

So, what does it mean when it says everyone may not get an item? Says that on two of the five! Does that mean some people will only get three items? I’ve only received two boxes so far and loved them both, but this one looks iffy to me. I don’t like the “this or that”, I like to know what is coming. But the value is there, so I’ll hang for a while longer.

When it says it may not be in all boxes that just means some people may get a different item 🙂 we don’t usually know what the variants are going to be until people start getting their boxes but the number of items seems to all be the same.

It means that you might get the item that they are showing, or a different item. You’ll get five no matter what…but some of them just might not be what’s shown in this spoiler. I started getting Boxycharm in August, and the August box is the only box between then and now, where everyone got the same thing. Since then, It’s been everyone getting the same “big” items, then something different with the others…

Alice

ok so I’m just going to give my honest opinion here:

I don’t think this is a bad box at all. if you feel like it’s too many “repeats”…maybe just take a step back from the subs for a while?? I had to do that with boxycharm myself. that first box is amazing, no matter what it’s contents are because the value IS there. however, it’s easy to hit product overload with this subscription. it’s kind of a no-win situation for the company in that everyone is happy initially and unhappy later on. thankfully, they have a great unsub policy (which I cannot say for every sub box)

I agree – just in 4 months time subscribing I have gotten four eye shadow pallettes, now two highlighters, multiple similar color lip products….it would be hard to be unique every single time…I did like the month with really strong items like the eye shadow, lip color, briogio hair product, etc. That was a good one. This one feels a little weak on “star power” because it seems so similar – a highlighter and a glow product for example. I’m taking a break not because they are doing a bad job or anything, but I have a lot of stuff now, how much does one person need, and plus, the variations can be frustrating and that started as soon as i joined.

Dede

I totally agree. I’ve gotten quality makeup but so few face products that it’s not worth holding onto the subscription to wait for a new rotation of product lineups. Also, the resubscribe on policy is one of the best. Good post.

Reply ButtonReply

Crystal

Well said! I’ve been feeling meh about my subs lately and I think it’s mostly because of makeup overload. I’m never excited about a blush and more because I have so many! This is a very disappointing box though mostly because I got the vintage highlight a couple months back. Even though it’s different shades that’s still a pretty serious repeat for some subscribers. Very annyoying. I’m glad I skipped this box. If I didn’t have highlights and bronzers and blushes galore this would be a great box.
I’m thinking I should break from my makeup heavy subs for some skin care subs.

I agree. I’ve cancelled majority of my makeup boxes. I subscribed to non-makeup boxes like Robb Vice and Elizabeth & Clarke. A different variety of items for awhile.

I just cancelled my subscription. I was unhappy with last box, and January’s box is horrible! This is too bad because I really liked BoxyCharm. 🙁
Also- a $6 brush vs a $20 brush!? I will be very upset if I get the Crown brush- especially since the So Susan brush in the spoiler is the only item that intrigued me.

Don’t be..I heard this So susan is crappy quality and they doubled their prices overnight. so this brish is worth probably leas than crown.even if you zoom in the picture you can see that susan brush is cheap looking

I cancelled my subscription as well

This box looks disappointing to me. I got the vintage highlight 2 boxes ago and it was too dark for me and also quite glittery. I’m excited about the fan brush and the body cream. The nail treatment is a recent repeat for me as well. This will only be my 3 box. What exactly do variations mean? Are there other possible items besides the ones pictured? If so, will they spoil those or will they be a complete surprise?

Reply ButtonReply

Jackie

Yes, the other variations won’t be spoiled until we get our boxes. The last 2 boxes, the variations I’ve received were not shown in any spoilers. I subbed in Oct so this is only my 4th box, but it seems like as soon as I joined, the variations started. 😕

I’ll be canceling my subscription, then play it by month. I’ve been signing for the 3 months every time. Only thing is anymore it’s so hit and miss so how do you know if what you want you’ll even get?

Cluinn

The literal only thing I want out of this box is the brush. Bronzer’s aren’t for winter. I got a highlighter of a similar shade from this exact brand like 2 boxes ago. A nail treatment’s so lame. I don’t wear blush. And I can’t wear scents so the body cream is pointless. The last box was my favorite what happened boxycharm? I’d really love more eyeshadow pallets, a contour palette of some kind, some lipstick. This box is just so bad, i want to unsubscribe but they already took my money. Does anyone know if I can get a refund? They haven’t shipped my box yet and I really don’t want them to, lmao.

Not thrilled for this box at all. I meant to cancel after seeing the spoiler for the vintage highlighter duo, being as I received the rose gold one in november’s box, but I got sick and then forgot. Oh well. I’ve gotta say though.. Ipsy has been killing it lately and they are only $10 a month.. boxycharm is $22.47 after tax. BC better step it up soon or I just might cancel. November’s box was meh and decembers box I absolutely hated, and now January’s I don’t like either. I don’t need any more highlighters.. I have super pale skin so unless the highlight is white it doesn’t show up on my skin. So vintage highlighters I can only use as blush toppers or maybe eyeshadows. I got the adesse nail treatment in a previous ipsy bag, already have multiple fan brushes, and have enough body lotion already to last a lifetime. All I can say is please please PLEASE boxycharm, send me the PUR cheek stain and NOT the bronzer. Once again.. pale skin and dark/orangey power.. not a good look! Pretty sure I’ll get the bronzer… -_- At least the value is there though!

I don’t understand why people think bronzers are not for winter. They are made for winter. They are made to make you look more tan than you are. I don’t need a bronzer in July, I’m already bronze. But right now, I wear it everyday just to make sure I’m not transparent white. I just use the smallest amount but I really helps.

Tara

I use a bronzer everyday for contouring it really livens up my complexion, especially in the winter! Although one container will last me like 2 years.

Jackie

Yes!! Thank you! Bronzers are definitely an everyday in the fall/winter for me as my summer tan wears off. I can’t believe so many of the hundreds of comments I read saying that bronzers are strictly a summer thing. And as for the people saying they’re too pale for bronzers, a lighter hand and a change of the brush might change your mind. When I first got into make-up, I thought bronzer made me look like I had dirt on my face. I started applying it lightly and discovered the Luxie small contour brush and it looks beautiful!

Mayra

I agree with all the comments! I hope the people from Boxycharm could read this! I think this will be my last box. If I don’t get at least 3 out 5. Last box for me was so bad and getting repeat stuff makes me feel that they don’t appreciate their customers.

Boxycharm is not what it used to be. I joined Boxycharm because not only were they full sized items, but everyone got the same. Every month I knew what I was getting. But when they started to do the whole “this or that” game, it lost its appeal. Quality of items has also gone downhill. I cancelled in November of 2016. Until they sort their mess out, I will not resubscribe.

I actually very much prefer the boxycharm items I’m getting now compared to what I was getting in 2014 from them. I unsubbed quickly because of it.

This is the problem with Boxycharm. They will have spoilers but they will say “you may have” the product in the box. Soooo, if you didnt get those on their spoilers, what will you get in replace of those you did not get? Thats why so many are cancelling their box. They changed wayyyy too much if you will compare how they did it before.

I tried boxycharm for he first time for the December box, and I got it yesturday, but I was missing 1 of ky items, I emailed them and they said they were out of stock, so they put 2400 charms on my account. I tried to use them yesturday. But it won’t let me add items to my cart, or get the code for the charms.
