Cosmo Box Subscription Review + Coupon – March 2018

Buyer beware!!! I paid for 6 months up front and they charged me this month for the box and will not respond to any of my emails. So far customer service is horrible and I cannot find a number I can call. It even says 0.00 charged in my online account with them but they charged my credit card so be careful and watch your statements if you pay up front 😡😡😡

I’m disappointed with this box too. I don’t drink caffeine which eliminates most teas for me so I’ll have to check on these ingredients. But even if I loved tea, I still feel insulted that they sent me 4+ year old tea with less then a year left before it expires. I have really been wanting some nail polishes so I was excited to see the set in my box (I had different colors than the ones posted) but in the three colors I tried, two of them show the brush strokes. I think it would have served them and the customer better had this been a set that includes the stamps, etches, etc. I would have given up the nail files or lip gloss to be able to use the nail polish how they intend it to be used. For the cost with shipping, I’ll give it one more month before cancelling if they don’t vastly improve their concept, consideration of their customer, and quality of product.

I don’t drink tea and even if I did that is not what I would expect from a Cosmo box. One or 2 bags would have been fine as a freebie but a whole box. What if you don’t like the flavor??

February’s box made perfect sense for Cosmo: a sexy book, body lotion, dark lippie and some decadent sweet treats. While I like this box, I agree with everyone that this is definitely not a Cosmopolitan box – where’s the sexiness?!

I heard the April box will be the bomb..com as stated on my comment section when I posted my box on IG. So, we shall see what’s in store for the next box!

I am pretty sad to about this month. I don’t drink tea so that’s half the box and now I gotta look to see if it’s past its date before give it away. I got the pastel shades of nail polish which I am happy about but the 2 other items are sad to me. I keep looking to see if there was a 5th item but sadly nope. Plus the box was sent out really late and never sent a email about that either.i had to email them to see what’s up. It also would be cool if they made the box more Cosmo then it’s boring box. And they can add a few bonus treats sometimes too. They won’t last long.

I would think Cosmo would have the best Beauty box ever just because of the name but name alone will not carry a way over priced box of stuff to giveaway .
happy that I passed on this 1.

The Cosmo box really seems to be missing the mark for me. The price of the box and items value can’t compete with other boxes like boxycharm, allure, Ricky’s nyc, even Ipsy which is cheaper with smaller samples, seems to have far better samples still. If Cosmo wants to make this become a real thing I think they need to do much better. Their name alone isn’t enough for people to buy it each month forever ya know. It’s like they’re riding on the Cosmo branding assuming that will be enough for people to keep buying each month, regardless of the box contents. But it pales in comparison to other monthly boxes. Hope they can take peoples feedback and improve it!

I think it would have been better if they’d sent pics of what you could do w the polishes. I wasn’t excited but when I saw the rainbow nails above I was super into it. So I was only going to keep a couple of shades but now I’m going to do a rainbow mani 😊

(Of course you could buy 99c polish and do it that way, so I’m not saying it makes this box that great…)

They sent me expired tea, I’m going to call my bank Monday and see what can be done.

I think it’s awful.

As usual I’m in the minority. I like this box. It doesn’t have the same old stuff that’s in every other subscription box and that I already have 5 of that i haven’t even opened.

Yea disappointed with this box. I liked February which was my first box and this one could have been so much better, especially if they included a full stamping kit with plates and a stamp in addition to the polish.

I think I’m in the minority here – I like this box! I already have stamping plates but hadn’t found a polish that worked well for stamping. Just tried these out and they work perfectly! I did get different colors than you, but mine are equally bright.

I think if they had swapped out the nail files with a stamping plate this would have been a home run.

This looks like a box thrown together with random old stock items

I mentioned on the forum that they don’t seem to have their curation figured out. If it were my job, I would include an issue of Cosmo each month, and strategically include 4-5 other items that I would also advertise in the magazine. They could include a small beauty, style, and sexy item, or even a journal, if they want to be consistent with their brand. I feel like they have an advantage over the rest of the market, and they aren’t using it. If you find out they need a freelance consultant, let me know! : D

Really underwhelming box. Kind of suprised at how it’s cosmo I would expect better . Even the last box was better then this one and I still did not subscribe was hoping for something really good but oh well…

I don’t like it at all. I’m so disappointed! Tea is not even close to what I think about for Cosmopolitan. A big let down.

I agree that this box feels as though it’s missing a hero item! When I first heard that Cosmo was starting a sub box I just knew that it would be great and that I’d just “have” to sub, but after seeing the reviews, I’m glad that I waited! It’s super disappointing, as I would expect Cosmo to include amazing items…..I’ll just save my money!!

I just got mine and felt the same way….nothing special:( I called to cancel and they said because I used a % off coupon for 6 months I couldn’t cancel and get money back. Ridiculous! Then I saw the date on my tea….mfg 2/2014 exp 2/2019…..think they got a deal! Sad! I hope they fix this….plus they sent late like they were waiting for something….maybe they still are!
