Did anyone who used the coupon code for the bonus item get it?

I did. It was a sample of Rose face cream and a foil packet of something I didn’t recognize. Disappointed but eh it was free

So I just received my replacement for the SkinMedica that was expired. The email I got said “SkinMedica Gift With Purchase – 2016 SkinMedica Holiday Gift Bag” and it was a gift set! It included a cosmetic bag, a save $20 instantly coupon, the replacement sunscreen that expires 2/18 (and my first one was tinted while my replacement wasn’t tinted), HA^5 rejuvenating hydrator 1 oz, a retinol complex 0.5 7.4 mL, and a AHA/BHA exfoliating cleanser 1 oz. They also included a small foil sample in the box.

My replacement “order” says “SkinMedica Gift With Purchase – SkinMedica Gift Set” ….I wonder what that means

I just realized mine was also expired last month.. called and was given a 10% refund. Absurd! 2.50 back! I have been a subscriber for years but am seriously thinking about canceling. They weren’t even nice about it.

Reply ButtonReply

nancyisshopping

Since the box has 6 items I would thing that 20% would have been more appropriate.

CHS

Well I’m not happy at all. They refused to replace my sunscreen and said it’s good 3 months after the expiration date. The mascara they sent was also dried out so they sent a replacement but the “replacement” was a different brand with a very faded sticker on it and some scratches on the outside of the tube. When I opened the tube, it smelled rancid and had a weird texture to I assume it’s also expired and it’s going straight into the trash. I’ll give them another month but I’m very underwhelmed with my first box 🙁

Melissa W.

That don’t sound right. What was the expiration on your sunscreen?

Carrie

How generous. I’m glad for you.

My replacement arrived today and they only sent me the sunscreen — and it expires next month!

I cancelled the sub. I’m done with inconsistent service.

nancyisshopping

When they sent you the replacement what did the email say you were getting? Mine says I’m getting a gift set, but I’m wondering if it will only be the replacement sunscreen after all. I’m just curious.

Chris

My replacement arrived today and expires this month!

Danielle Rich

They did not fix my problem. They immediately sent me out a replacement, however it also expires next month. No extra set for me, just a bad experience. I cancelled and will stick with a company that does not send out expired products. This is not the first time this happened. This company cannot be trusted.

Melissa W.

Mine’s good.. it expires 2/18.

Melissa W.

Oh no!!! That’s not good. I didn’t even check mine, but hopefully the other products are still good and that will make up for it. I’m going to check mine now though, out of curiosity.

Lindsay

I just came here to announce that’s what they sent me too! Amazingly generous! Dermstore is getting my money for skincare orders for sure

Reply ButtonReply

Melissa W.

Yes.. agree, their customer service actually makes me want to buy things I need through them. The day they sent me the gift bag, I actually made a $30 purchase from their store. It’s nice knowing that if there is something wrong with a product, that they will fix it.

Melissa W.

Also.. now I’ll be able to use the sunscreen this summer. I live in the Northeast and the one from from my box expired 1/17! If it was 3/17, like most others, I think it would of have been okay for this summer, but not 1/17…

Reply ButtonReply

Sarah

I know, it was really awesome that they sent a full gift set! No problem at all!

Melissa W.

Wow.. that’s very generous of them! I’m getting mine today too. I would have been happy with just the sunscreen replacement, but hey.. now I’m really happy! Thanks for letting us know it was the gift set! Mine says gift set too, but I just wasn’t sure if it was the full gift set.

nancyisshopping

Can you let us know what you get?

Considering the three full size items alone are valued at $104 this box is well worth the $25 in my book!

I am live chatting with them now to let them know that my skinmedia was expired. Jeremy R says they are aware of it and according to the company it is still good for 3 months after expiration date. no offer to replace or anything. not even an apology. I also was supposed to receive a free mystery gift which i didnt receive. this is my first beautyfix box and i am incredibly disappointed in it. i mean really there are only 3 full size products in there. and the customer support i am receiving sucks.

nancyisshopping

Did you tell them about the mystery gift being missing too?

This is my second box and I cancelled today. My January box arrived with a broken lipstick–I called and received a full refund; this month the expired item. It’s not worth it to “hope” for better items in future boxes. A two month trial was enough.

Reply ButtonReply

Charlene

Same here! Last month broken lipstick, this expired sunscreen. I was happy they sent me a replacement for the lipstick, but they refused to send me a replacement for the sunscreen. I’m on the edge here. I don’t whether I should keep the subscription…

gwarstar

I chatted with them and they replaced my expired sunscreen. They have always been really good with the customer service. I would contact someone else. That is really lame!

So they shipped out my replacement today for the expired spf via 2 day shipping. Under description it is labels as “SkinMedica Gift With Purchase – 2016 SkinMedica Holiday Gift Bag” I was wondering if anyone is getting this? I’m trying not to get my hopes up that I’m getting multiple products as a replacement for one.

Reply ButtonReply

Melissa W.

Yes.. I’m getting the same thing! I hope it’s the full set too! That would be totally unexpected and amazing! Don’t want to get my hopes up either though. I’m telling myself it’s just the sunscreen and that’s it. I guess we’ll have to wait and see!

Michelle

Mine is out for delivery. Whatever it is, I’m impressed with the timing!

Ashley

I also received the same email 🙂

Reply ButtonReply

Michelle

Same. But last month when my lipstick was broken the replacement order just noted the lipstick. So maybe we’re getting something else.

Julie

I also got the SkinMedica with the 3/17 expiration. As with any expiration date it is actually a sell by date, the actual product is good for at least 90 days after the sell by date and given the size of the tube shouldn’t be a problem to use by then. That being said, I was placing an order with Dermstore and I mentioned all the hoopla over the 3/17 sell by date and they immediately took $20 off my order as a courtesy. As with any sub some months are going to appeal to certain consumers more than others but the Beautyfix value always far exceeds the $25 monthly and the customer service is 5 ⭐️!!!

This month was my first Beautyfix and I am so happy with it!! I had ordered with the 2day shipping hoping to avoid the blizzard we just got here in Maine and I placed my order on Friday of last week and I didn’t receive it until Wednesday this week. When I called customer service I spoke with “Lex” and he was absolutely awesome, he refunded my $6.95 shipping fee no questions asked!!! (I had not read any of these posts and didn’t realize the 3/17 expiration date on the sunscreen so maybe I’ll be calling back today, aside from that, I’m LOVING this box!! The Juice Beauty primer is wonderful for Winter Skin!!!)

I received my box today and my sunscreen had an expiration date of 1/17! I emailed customer service and they said they would send a new one. Last month the lipstick came broken and they sent a new one as well.

Wow, what a disappointment this BeautyFix is this month! 3 facial products (1 expired), 2 lip products and a flaky mascara. I don’t know what to say.

Reply ButtonReply

Katy

I got my first box today and there were two of the lip products and no mascara. Being that the lippie is worth more than the mascara I should see it as in my favor but being that it could have just as easily been two lower priced items so it makes me kind of nervous for mistakes in future boxes. Plus, it says there was supposed to be a welcome sample on my invoice but there was no sample in my box or my shipping box. Both mistakes reflect poorly to a new subscriber. And I haven’t even checked my expiration dates yet. I really don’t see myself moving forward with Beauty Fix as a subscription. I think I would rather purchase the boxes separately if I see one I would like.

I will say I love the lip balm and the lip color. Its a very wearable shade. I haven’t tried any of the other products yet but I’m looking forward to it.

I am in love with the Juice Beauty Primer. I used a light moisturizer, the primer, and the CC Cream and it stayed on all day (in a blizzard) with no cracking, or “build-up” in my smile lines, etc.

You should call customer service. I had a free item listed on a packing slip, but didn’t receive it. They sent me current gift with purchase which was a 4 piece Luzern kit!

Reply ButtonReply

Katy

I will be contacting them tomorrow. I finally had some time to sit and look over my box again this evening and the expiration date on my sunscreen is 4/2017. Being that I wouldn’t be using it until swimming weather, which isn’t until the end of May here, I would really like one dated until at least August.

TK

This is certainly not the best Beautyfix box. No tool, no hair product, fewer products, and expired products. My skinmedica expires 3/17. The best thing in the box is the By Terry balm. I’ve used it before and it’s a luxurious lip balm that’s moisturizing and leaves a pretty pearlescent finish on lips. It has a faint rose scent. I’m hoping I can use the 20% off code to purchase the full size By Terry.

Where are you seeing the expiration date?

On the crimped edge.

Emileo

I emailed Customer Service about my SkinMedica SPF expiring in 03/2017 and asked for a replacement or another similar product with a longer usage window. They quickly got back with me and said they would send out a replacement.
So, if yours has expired or will expire shortly, do not feel shy and just reach out to CS.

Becca

I contacted them about the expired item and they said they could not replace it so they refunded me the whole amount of the box. $26.95.

They just sent me out a new box. There is nothing in this box I will use. I opened the box this morning and was overwhelmed by the rose smell. It is a migraine trigger for me. Most of the other products have ingredients in them that I won’t use. I just canceled my sub to this box.

Melissa W.

Did you chat or email them please? I’m getting a little nervous about subbing to this box. My first box ever was the box from December that had the expired hair growth product. Then my January box was fine that I know of, and now this month, my Skin Media expired 1/17 also! I love my beauty fix box and would hate to get rid of it, but this is 2 out 3 boxes now. So, I’m going to get in touch with them and see what they say, but am seeing some are having luck and others aren’t, so did you chat or email? Maybe one is better..lol.

Stefanie

I got mine today. My Skin Medica expired jan of 2017!!! Wtf. Im so disappointed with this box this month. I am gonna cancel before the next billing date. I did reach out to CS and they are sending a replacement Skin Medica -hopefully a non-expired one this time. They were very nice about it. Just wasnt impressed with this months offerings at all.

Reply ButtonReply

Melissa W.

I got my box today. Overall I’m happy. The only product I won’t use is the Skin Media because the tint is way to dark for skin tone. I also got BeautifiedYou deluxe bag today and I have to admit that I was way more excited over this bag then my Beauty Fix box!

Reply ButtonReply

nancyisshopping

How long did it take for the Beautified You bag? I ordered a few days ago and no shipping notice yet.

Reply ButtonReply

Melissa W.

I would say that it takes a few days before shipping and then it usually takes about 2 weeks to get to me. Their a little slower then most stores, but it always comes… and it’s worth the wait! I’m going to order another one right now too!

Sarah

Where is the beautified bag on the site? I can’t seem to find it!

Reply ButtonReply

Melissa W.

Sorry.. on the BeautifiedYou website. I think if you just google BeautifiedYou Beauty Bag.. it will pop up. They have $5 bags and a $15 deluxe bag. Sometimes they have a $15 Dermologica bag too.

Melissa W.

It’s BeautifiedYou beauty bag one BeautifiedYou web site. Hope that helps!

monah

What are the beautified bags like? I know their website said it’s a mix of 10 foil and deluxe samples. How good are the products and sizes?

Reply ButtonReply

Melissa W.

I actually love the Beautified bags. I got the deluxe bag this time for $15, which usually sell out quick. You just need to keep checking back often. Their $5 bags are pretty good too. Anyway, this time I got…

Youngblood Lip gloss in Fantasy (mini tube)
Glam Glow mud to foam daily cleanser (travel sz.. I think, it’s 1oz)
Pevonia RS2 Care Cream (sample tube 5ml)
Pevonia lumafirm eye contour (sample tube 3ml)
revision D.E.J face cream ( sample tube)
Revision Intellishade ( 2 sample sz tubes.. 1 in original and 1 in matte)
Glo Minerals mini Mascara
Then I got 14 different foil sample packets

So, I say it’s a great deal with 8 sample and deluxe samples and then the 14 foils. I usually order one of the $15 and a $5 bag every month, and they are always different! Definitely worth checking it out..

Courtney

The lip in cashmere is beautiful I love it. The lip balm is great and smooth plus it smells like roses. The juice beauty is thin and absorbs well. I really like it alone without makeup. Soooooo glad it doesnt have a strong juice beauty smell. I love the mascara. Its good when you just want to boost your lashes without going there. Its not clumpy, it separates really well, and is a good dark black. It made my lashes soft not stiff and didnt flake at all. The other items are blah and not my color. My sunscreen expires 3/17 but I wouldnt use it anyways. Other than that I love the box. Its worth 25 bucks.

The mascara was a bomb though…it flaked everywhere as I was trying to apply it ! It was very dry, I assumed it was close to expiring soon but I was unable to find an expiration date on the packaging ? It got trashed.

I received that black mascara a while ago in a beautyfix box. Sure hope it’s not from the same production batch/lot! 🤔

The Terry lip balm is heaven for me ! I work outside so I’m obsessed with trying to find the perfect balm that has staying power. Haven’t been to impressed with any Juice products that I’ve tried before but…I absolutely love this primer ! It’s very thin in consistency & blends in great with my foundation. I’m 43 yrs old & have some fine lines obviously, this primer does not settle in the lines or draw attention to them. It seems to give me a very soft glow. The Kevin lip stain color is perfect for my lips & feels great on. I’m very happy with this months box 💜💙💚

Have you worn the balm on its own? Or layered ontop of a lipstick?

I went back to see last year’s reviews and don’t think they have cut the number of items in half – they still used to send 6 products + a tool. To me this box looks great – high end items (albeit probably close to expiration, because how else would they get them for this low price) but that’s fine – makeup doesn’t expire on the day it is marked to expire, it’s probably good for at least another year, if it’s not opened and used.

Reply ButtonReply

Becca

If you look at September thru December 2016 you will see that nine to twelve items were sent each month. Now there is half that and no tools. It is not worth paying $27 for when i get the same value from look fantastic for $15.

Meagan

I don’t think the Look Fantastic has the price point that BF does, or does it? BF boxes are pretty much always north of $100.

Thanks for the feedback on the mascara. I’m using the lash domination from my bare minerals mystery box and will move quickly to the smith and culture from birdie. I’m excited to try the beauty counter in this month’s allure, plus I’m getting this one and another as my glossybox welcome gift. The reviews on it aren’t great either. At least I know how to prioritize these!

Ugh. This will be my first box and I am not very happy about it. I have been really excited to try this box because they all looked so good for the most part. This is probably the worst one I’ve ever seen. I am very disappointed. I’ll give March a shot I guess but then I’m cancelling until they get back to the good boxes they used to send. This is so disappointing. I’m not really interested in anything here. What a complete waste of money.

Same here. I started in November which was a great box. January and this month were really bad. Feels like they are trying to get rid of products that no one will buy or are expiring. This is the second time with expired or soon to expire products. I am waiting for next month’s box, but if that is bad I will cancel. Too bad as loved the first month and felt it was good value.

Jaclyn

BeautyFix was on fire for awhile, but the January and February boxes have been rather lackluster. Previously, I really enjoyed the mix of products – mostly skincare with a makeup item, a hair item, and a tool. I’m disappointed that BeautyFix seems to be moving away from that.

I am most excited about the Juice Beauty primer, as well as trying the lip stain and balm.

Stephanie

Yes! I was so mad I didn’t get to look at full Jan spoilers before the cancellation day because I ended up with a box of things I didn’t want at all. This month confirms I made the right choice by canceling. It’s really a shame too, because last year’s boxes were pretty much all winners for me.
