I love Boxycharm! I have tried many subscription boxes and end up canceling because so many of the things they put in the box I don’t like. I love almost everything in Boxycahrm! The value is incredible, no samples, just full sized! I have wayyy too much makeup now but I love it! For $21 even on a tight budget, I can afford this. Thank you Boxeycharm!

Just got off the waitlist! It was not quite a month! I love sharing my boxes with my daughter and what she doesn’t want she donates to a women’s shelter so they can pamper themselves a bit.

I think something is wrong with their system, I had the same problem with my card being charged. I had two accounts both with the same credit card info and address, (one is for my sister) with one account I got off the waitlist the following month. The other account each month between the 3rd-5th I’ll receive an email saying “there ‘s an issue with charging my card”. It took 5 months and many times changing my address and credit card to the same info before it was finally charged this month. But in between those 5 months, in December I created a third account ( thinking maybe the account was the problem) and now its’ just my luck that all three accounts were charged on the same day.

This is an excellent box. I always try to choose 1 item to donate but they made it difficult for January!

I’m hoping for that Pur face palette! I didnt get the bronzer last month & the blush palette went up for donation so I’m loving that.

Did anyone else see on instagram the survey question asking us what we thought on fragrances being added to the box? Myself, I would love to try new high end perfumes I have never tried.
I too would like to see some new brands to the box, toofaced, thebalm, urban decay, Kat von D. I have no complaints whatsoever to the products we get. If they gave me the same type of pallette every month, it just means that I have the opportunity to find something that I love. I can always gift what I don’t need. There are plenty of people that have nothing. The value is amazing. It gives people on really tight budgets a chance to have some nice things.
I am not the most experienced where makeup is concerned and have made some discoveries like setting spray and primer. Never have I ever worn a pair of eyelashes until I received a pair from boxycharm.
I am in love with my subscription.

When i signed up forever ago it put me on the waiting list I haven’t heard anything back at all just wondering what’s going on???

So, I was waitlisted for this box and they emailed me Friday and said they couldn’t take me off the waitlist because there was a problem charging my account and either my credit card or my address needed to be updated. I logged into my account but everything was correct and accurate. So I emailed them back the same day, but I haven’t heard anything else and they never charged my card so I am afraid I am going to miss out on this one and I still don’t have any idea what the problem with me account is!!!!! How frustrating!

Try calling the credit card company. I had this issue with another subscription that would NOT go through

Reply ButtonReply

Carrie

Odd, but with no further explanation, they charged my card and emailed me today that I was off the waitlist. So, who knows? Lol. I never changed anything but now it works! Just glad I don’t have to start over at the bottom of the waitlist!

Saundra624

Same thing happened to me last month, I contacted CS, no help at all. I went on my profile and change my address from Dr to Drive, and I’m finally off the wait list this month. Idk if Dr to Drive made a difference, but it’s the only thing I changed… Hope that is some help, good luck

I’m having the same issue. I even tried a different card and still the same thing. So I don’t know.

I had that happen. I updated all my credit info even though it was right and then it was fine.

in need of a bronzer so much! didnt get last months got purple concealer lol.. … hoping for this! all boxes are usually great!!!

I unsubscribed after last month and resubscribed later in January because I spent to much for Christmas. I’m ok if I have to wait til next month but this months does look nice. I’ve been getting this subscription for about 3 years.

If you haven’t already, you should join some boxycharm buy/sell/trade groups on facebook instead of cancelling for the month. 9 times out of 10 you can make the $21 it costs for boxy back, plus more. Usually the popular items go for $15-20 a piece, and then the smaller things you can sell for $5-10. Would have saved you from being waitlisted and still not made you spend the extra money around Christmas 🙂

I was really disappointed in the bronze pallet last month, I hope this one is better.

I wouldn’t mind the brighten and bronze palette, but I just got a vintage highlight and beauté basics bronzer last month, so I hope there are other face palette variations

Reply ButtonReply

Jackie

Well, face palettes are usually blush, bronzer, and highlighter so no matter the brand variation, we’re all getting a face palette. Which is interesting because we just got a blush palette, and a bronzer last month, and some people like yourself, also got a highlighter so I’m not understanding getting a face palette but I’m excited and if I won’t use it, it will go in my bin to donate to the women’s shelter. It won’t go to waste!

Reply ButtonReply

Merlisha

That’s true! I meant, I hope there is another variation besides the face palette one, (since last month I basically got a face palette) but now I see everyone is getting a face palette. It would’ve been nice to get something a little different, but hey I’m not complaining. I always get use out of my boxy stuff and they make great gifts for my make up loving friends!

Amy

I would actually like to have this box variation. I really like PUR’s powder formula, their eyeshadow palette that we got is my favorite one I have ever received from Boxycharm and I use it all the time. So I am curious as to whether or not their other face powders are just as good. The Dr. Brandt primer alone is enough for me to be happy with the box this month, so no complaints here.

Sara

I use powdered bronzer daily – I would be very happy with this box!

Reply ButtonReply

Shannon

So…tired of bronzers!
Does anyone else wish they would add a couple new sponsor brands? Don’t get me wrong, the value is great. But I get tired of seeing some of the same brands. I’m glad they added Tarte palette recently. Urban Decay, Too Faced or something would be nice for a change of brand.

Bonnie

I got the My Little Pony palette and I heard their lashes are great! Ulta sells Pur and so does Kohls, who is more likely to run a sale.

Reply ButtonReply

MzBev

Kohl’s has TheBalm products also!

Kim

I would take pur every day over doucce, Bella Pierre, or real her, or be a bombshell products.

Reply ButtonReply

Jackie

Me too, girl! Everything I’ve bought from PÜR, I’ve loved. I’ve bought a few things from BellaPierre and I returned both things.

Sandra

You forgot the worst brand of all times:

THE BALM

If I could never see anything by them again, I would pay good money.

Unfortunately, ipsy and the others will keep sending them every month. Worst piece of useless garbage…

Sandra

There is the worst one that you forgot…

THE BALM!

I would pay money to NEVER see anything by that horrible company ever again 🙁

Julie

I’m just sick of PUR. Does anyone ever actually buy their products or is it all what they can sell to sub boxes?

Reply ButtonReply

Tracey

PUR is sold in Ulta.

Amy

I like PUR, that eyeshadow palette we got last year has been my most used eyeshadow palette! I would buy their products if I didn’t have BoxyCharm, its good quality for a good price. Its a lot better than some of their other brands.

Jessica

I would absolutely repurchase the soirée diaries palette. I think that was my favorite palette I received all last year in Boxy!

Michelle

I have purchased the Trolls palette and the My Little Pony Palette along with the Soiree Diaries since I wasn’t a boxy member when they did that palette. I love their shadows.

Jackie

I’ve actually bought a few things from PÜR that I love! Like the bare it all foundation and the Trolls palette are just a few things I really love!

Tara

I love the 4 in 1 face powder

Amanda Vela

Does anyone know if the Girlactik lippie is a gloss or a matte liquid lipstick? I don’t like glosses but I love mattes. Thanks in advance. 🙂

Reply ButtonReply

Angela

It looks like the matte lip paint…

Reply ButtonReply

Christian

I think it’s a matte. When I zoomed in it looks like it says matte.

Reply ButtonReply

luckindeed

Haha, I was wondering the same thing, but I’m the opposite — love glosses, don’t like mattes.

Tia

I’ve been with Boxycharm since almost the beginning. I love my boxes and even if I “think” I won’t like something, I almost always do once I receive it. That being said, I do NOT like variations! Every time they do a variation box, I get the one I want the least. But overall, this is a great box and I’m always happy month-to-month with the items. 🙂

Reply ButtonReply

Carissa

I love the variations! I think it’s nice to be somewhat surprised with what I get every month. For me it would be boring to open the box each month and know exactly what was in it already.

Reply ButtonReply

Mandy

I think the only reason we’re seeing so many variations is because they are struggling to clear the enormous wait list. If they can get ahead of the growth curve and start ordering what they are going to need for the future taking into account the exponential boom we should start seeing less variation.

I totally agree!! I’ve loved boxy so I’m not going to complain but the last few months have been a miss for me. Last month, my bronzer came in a million pieces. I made the mistake of asking for the concealer as a replacement only to find out it was supposed to be horrible anyway. But I always feel like I get the worst variations of boxes. I just dropped glossybox because of their umpteen variations. I hope boxy goes back to being great again.

Reply ButtonReply

Angela

I feel the same, I get the varient that I prefer the least…

Reply ButtonReply

Eeyore215

Yeah, ii usually buy it if I wanted it and didn’t get it or if I dont already have it. They promote well to the right crowd, people who actually buy makeup retail.

Reply ButtonReply

Christine

Boxy has gone back to having a private label feel.

Reply ButtonReply

Jessica

Last month wasn’t great, but this month I think the Crown palette has the only private label feel (and I’m hoping to be pleasantly surprised). Dr. Brandt and IT cosmetics are well known and sell at several major retailers. Girlaktic is a super hot indie brand. And I think PUR is sold at Ulta.

Reply ButtonReply

Jackie

Why do you say that? I buy PÜR and It Cosmetics at ULTA and Dr Brandt at Sephora. Those aren’t private labels. Those brands are just as good as say Tarte or Too Faced.

Reply ButtonReply

Jodi

Agree!

Cristina

Agreed. I hope this doesn’t last and they go back to how they were these last few months.

I was hoping for the Seraphine lip buffer. I wonder what happened to it?? That was going to be my favorite thing in the box.

It’s coming in a future box. CEO confirmed it.

I have wanted a primer. Im excited about all the products. Im still learning how to do alot with make up and this service helps alot with getting what i need, learning and its cheaper than if i was all on my own with what to buy.

so excited!!!

Sherry

I love this box except for the bronzer…just received one in last months box.

Amy

I’m hoping I get the other variant for the bronzer. I’m over loaded. If I do get it , I’ll send it to someone else who wants it.

Reply ButtonReply

Misty

I hope I get the Bronzer!

Reply ButtonReply

Michelle

I seriously am hoping for it. I am new to boxy so I am not overloaded. And I love Pur.

Reply ButtonReply

Angie

I just got the other bronzer from last months box so I hope I don’t get that! Why give bronzers back to back?

Reply ButtonReply

Carissa

Everyone is going to get a “face palette,” we just don’t know if everyone is getting the PUR one or a different kind. So chances are you’ll probably end up with a bronzer either way.
