Why would sephora sent the greystone color lipstick to people with fair skin is beyond my comprehension.. Looks like it’s a good product, lasts a while, easy to apply, but I am definitely not willing to purchase it juat yet, after trying on this color. I might however keep it and use it once, on Halloween..

Heather

That lippie has great staying power and is the most unflattering color I’ve ever tried on myself. Truly horrible.

Sharyn

I Googled the NudeStix shade hoping the color would be better than the name greystone implies. Nope!! What an terribly unflattering color. Why do they do this? Ugh.

I got box 280 and my TrèStiQue Highlight & Perfect Multipurpose Stick is broken. 🙁

Heather

Me too. And I was excited about that.

Pam

Anyone wanna swap? I have box 272 and I want 264.

Reply ButtonReply

Jeanne Beguin

I have box 976? Does anyone else have that box variation? I’m confused.

Reply ButtonReply

Shannel

I received box #272 and I’d love to swap the Belif, Tatcha, Nudestix, and Rahua… so basically the whole box.

I’m most interested in the Sunday Riley, Milk, Tata Harper, and Grande Lips.

Diana

I got mine today, I got the 264 box and I’m happy with everything the Sunday Riley cleanser is a good sized sample so I’m thrilled about that 😊

Reply ButtonReply

Judith

Ughhhhh….I got the worst box last month and this month too with 280. I think I will try and change my profile.

I was watching the Play by Sephora video that they released on the May box already and the lady in it kept saying that they put the more gentle skincare products in the boxes of those people who had indicated that they have sensitive skin and the more exfoliating skincare type products in the boxes of those people who had indicated that anti-aging was of concern, and on and on . . .

So I think those of us who indicated sensitive skin in our Sephora Play profile are inadvertently getting sent the basic skincare products with lower box values rather than the more interesting skincare products with higher value.

Like I put sensitive skin and got stuck with the no frills Philosophy cleanser last month and the gentle Skin Laundry cleanser this month instead of the Ole Henrikson Vitamin C that I wanted last month and the Sunday Riley Ceramic Slip Cleanser that I wanted this month.

Heather

I definitely get all the sensitive skin stuff. Luckily this time I love the cleanser I got, even though the value is low.

Reply ButtonReply

Amanda Vela

Wait I got Philosophy last month that was worth only freakin $3 but this month I’m getting Sunday Riley but I don’t remember changing anything

Reply ButtonReply

MM

Got box 280 and am perfectly happy with it! I think they stepped it up with the size of the samples in this box as well, which I know is something people have complained about before.

Reply ButtonReply

RK

For all those wondering.. box246 is the same as box (drumroll) …. box 264 well maybe I was the only one with the reversed digits not sure .. nevertheless I wanted to try Sunday Riley happy with that that but would have been thrilled with the milk product still pretty good overall
Plus my tresique stick was empty and broken with the highlighter stuck in the lid so I called Sephora and they were happy to help
one thing that definitely keeps me with a box …the customer service .. thanks Sephora 🙂

Rceli

I’m getting box #272. Meh. Its fine.
I was dying to try the Sunday Riley Ceramic Slip or Tata Harper Mask… but more Belief and I’m down to trey the Tatcha Cleansing Oil… oh well.

After the March Box I really don’t need more highlighter, but it looks like everyone is getting the Trestique. stick.

Jen

My number is not aany of these i wrote them down and there r no combos leading to any of these numbers…ugh

Reply ButtonReply

Michele

wow, I had another box number the other week and now it is updated to 264! I am thrilled!

Reply ButtonReply

Mikayla

Same exact thing happened to me!! I felt like I was dumb and probably read it wrong but if it’s happening to other people maybe I’m not crazy 😅

Reply ButtonReply

Michelle

I. Need. To. Know.What .Is. In. 306. NOW!!

Brittany Nichols

Me too!

Cookie

me too. I have that box. Last month I was the last to know. Looks like a repeat this month

Reply ButtonReply

Korey

Ditto. Are we the last to receive ours or something? I saw the spoilers for ALL the boxes on youtube but nothing for specific boxes. Mine hasn’t even been shipped. I just hope I get the nudestix.

Am24

Me too!!! 😫💔

Reply ButtonReply

Ramos

Me too!!!!

Reply ButtonReply

Katrina

Me too! Ugh. I have zero patience… However there are still a bunch of products that haven’t appeared in any of the known variations. Fingers crossed for something good coming to those who have to wait.

Reply ButtonReply

CJ

Me too!!!

Reply ButtonReply

Katherine

You and me both sister. I’m guessing it will be the ugly stepchild of all of these. Sigh. What is everyone’s profile that is getting #272, I wonder.

Reply ButtonReply

Amanda Vela

At least my #264 looks better than #280…still wish I didn’t get the grandelips but I’m glad I’m getting the Christophe Robin instead of the Rahua

Reply ButtonReply

Shefali

Im getting 280, disappointed.

Anyone with CR, Milk blur or tata harper wanna to trade?
thanks

Reply ButtonReply

Michelle Blanton

I’m getting 272 and really want 264. Anyone want to swap?

Reply ButtonReply

HalliLikeBerry

Same perfume as 272? Seems like each version usually gets their own, no?

Reply ButtonReply

Sarah S

These were all the items I was hoping not to get. Of course 280 is the worst box. So disappointed

Reply ButtonReply

VeronicaLM

Ugh #280 is the worst one! Anyone want their entire box for my #280?

Reply ButtonReply

VeronicaLM

Want to *swap their entire non #280 box for my #280 box??

Reply ButtonReply

Elizabeth

Ugh. I am getting #264 and am so disappointed. Why can’t they just send out one box for everyone? The other boxes look so much better to me than what I’m getting.

Reply ButtonReply

VeronicaLM

I’ll swap you my entire box

Reply ButtonReply

Elizabeth

Sounds great!
Thanks!
FYI, I’m going to wait until it arrives before I list it – just in case they send me a different box. Fingers crossed.

I may be in the minority, but I don’t wear much make-up and I quite like receiving skincare items. I actually wish for more toner … pretty please?

Reply ButtonReply

Katie

Agreed! I keep hoping someone will send a toner! That spoiler a while back for Allure that ended up not happening had me so excited, then nope.

Reply ButtonReply

Luna

I agree. With the exception of K-beauty boxes, toner is definitely lacking in beauty boxes.

Reply ButtonReply

Paige

I’ve been dying to try the Skin Laundry face wash!!! And would love that belief!!! Wish i had this box instead of 264

Reply ButtonReply

Callie

I’d trade the skin laundry and belief for your Sunday Riley and Christophe Robin!

Reply ButtonReply

Jessica Hapak

I have 280! Want to swap my
Belif and skin laundry for your Sunday Riley and Christopher Robin?

Reply ButtonReply

Paige

I was hoping to keep the Sunday Riley but will swap the hair scrub for the skin laundry!
