CANCELED! I am so disappointed. For the last 4 months it seems like all the products have been some knock off wannabe organic crap. The kind of stuff you see in Big Lot’s that try and look nice but really they are just crappy cheap sh*t. I don’t know how they do it but some get big bottles and some dont? wow… discrimiate much? If you can’t give out the same sizes then I suggest you get a different product to fill that slot. This is horrible. I could probably buy all of these products for $15 online. What a damn rip off and I am not one to complain. I’m always saying hey it’s $21 be happy but this isn’t even $21 worth of products. I just can’t even right now. They better hope they don’t charge me again. I canceled but I have before and they STILL charged me….

Ugh so disappointed. THREE repeated products for me. I don’t mind the repeated shower gel but couldn’t I get at least a difference scent. I got Happy Budha in October and this one leaked.
I got the eye cream last January already and my variation came with the Laqu Cloud lips in the same color I already have from November’s box AND mine was damaged so I can’t even trade it. What a rip.

Just got my box. The eye cream was the only full size in my box. I wonder how they decide who is going to be okay getting samples while others are getting full size. The only positive to the box is I did need an eye cream. Last month my nail polish was missing, my concealer stick too dark, and I got cheap mud mask instead of the rice cleanser. Unless they guarantee me an A list box I’m done. Even if they did I don’t think I would trust them.

So I love my box and so far have loved all of them. But I have to complain a bit because its so very unfair that some people got the full size shower gel and others the sample size. Not cool to do that to people!!

I am usually pretty happy, no matter what I get, because I love trying new stuff, but this month was just a dud, in my opinion. Only one full size, compared to last month, which had five full-size products, out of the six I received. I cancelled, which I will probably regret next month.

This box was an absolute fail for me. All the products are tiny. The Oolution is supposedly full size and worth $38, but at one point you could buy this exact product for $9.99 on the Walmart website, and now you can’t buy it anywhere. I’ve been so happy with GB up til now, so I’m hoping this is just an off month.

Agreed! Two of the products I’ve already received in Past boxes.

i miss the old Glossybox before this takeover…. i love the new points system though. Glossybox always had me sold before. they kept me in at 3 months at $10 a box and i loved all the boxes i subscribed the vast majority of last year and loved it!… unfortunately their boxes havent been all that amazing and certainly not for the full price. boxycharm blows them out of the water so i stick with them. the karl lagerfeld blush would be about the only thing that tempts me to resub… i hope they get their groove back and release some good coupons like that again.

I am supposed to be getting variation 2. Anyone know which one that is?

I received variant 2 in the mail today and it had a product different from both of these boxes!

Was it the rice powder? Seemed like all the Brits got that product?

Just received my GlossyBox. I got Variation 4, which includes Rituals in Happy Buddha and LAQA&CO Cloud Lips in Daydream (RV $17)! I really did not want that eyeliner, so I’m happy with my variation.

I love that lipstick container … I wish Luna would start up a 12 step. I just caved and brought this for the eye cream.

Wendy
I agree, I need a 12 step.. I need to stop, but I don’t want to! I seriously have a problem though.
I now have two IPSY’s, two Boxy’s, Glossy (usually 2 if I’m loving what’s inside), Beautyfix (also usually 2), Julep, LolaBeautyBox, Allure, Play, Birchbox… omg and I just signed up for the Slutbox. Bought three Target boxes this month too.
Someone, please help me! (Or tell me another good box to get.) I can’t help myself!

Just got my box I got the full size Rituals in Happy Buddha that I got last year and am super happy since I loved it then!! I also got a Laqa & Co matte lipstick in a great mauve!! Pleasantly surprised!!!

So glad I cancel this month. Nothing on this box excites me to continue on. Months before (April) the site advertise to have at least 4-5 full size products but ended up sending less than what they said your getting. This month promise to only have 2 full size. Don’t get me wrong but I get promotional emails saying this and that but disappointed when you recieved the box. Gb used to be so good.

OMG!!! This box keeps getting worse by the month!!! I think the 1 box with the eye liner and blush would be good since I’m getting the box but my luck I’ll get the other box which stinks, they both stink but 1 is a product maybe better than the other!!! I’m CANCELLING this box for sure, this month is a full year of disappointing boxes 1 after the other!! This box does nothing to WOW me, I’m over it. I’m not gonna keep giving them $21 bucks for a deluxe sample shower gel, sample size makeup wipes, etc……everything is always samples and deluxe samples, it’s a rare occasion getting more than 1 full sized product, I’m over this box!!! I’ll just keep my eyes open for there limited edition boxes cuz those boxes are usually very much worth the money ALWAYS, like the Holiday LE box was fantastic and I loved most everything in that box, it was worth it just for the Sunday Riley!!! Thanks for letting me vent lol!!!!

My shower gel was full size (6.7 oz), along with my eye cream, lipstick, and blush/highlighter, which are all full size as well. The only thing that isn’t is the face wipes, but you still get 10 in the package. I’m thrilled with the box!

Me too – I love this month’s box so much! I would have liked to try the Oidad spray- but the full size Rituals is great. Last month, 4 of my 5 items were full size. Glossybox is getting their groove back.

I got a full size (6.7 oz) shower gel, full size blush, full size eye cream, and full size awesome lipstick in my variation, which was number 4. The only thing not full size was the face wipes, but even that has 10 in the package. I think it is a great box.

I disagree. I can’t stand Glossybox customer service so I have no intention of subscribing without a promotional offer, but I generally love their boxes. Though this one is a miss for me. I subscribed in Dec 2017 -March and I liked all except the February box (due to too many lip products) but even then I mostly liked the box.
The only thing in my March box that wasn’t full size was the FORM Multitask. Leave-In Lotion and from what I can remember there were three full size in January and February’s. That’s not bad. Now if they’d only do something about their CS. If you plan on canceling make sure you do it before the 15th of April or you will be charged and hopefully sent May’s box.

I am okay with not receiving this box. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing I am interested in. My Gilt City promotion ended last month this will not be the box that draws me back in.

The Oolution was sent out before, but it was over a year ago… and i’ve hoped for over a year to get another one in any of my sub boxes! It has to be one of the best products I’ve ever used under my eyes, the only other product to come close has been the Philosophy Miracle Worker. And the Karl Lagerfeld / Model Co collab is cool, I collect limited edition makeup and a collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld is a nice addition to my stash. The rest of the box is also good, all products I use and like. I think it’s a big win this month for Glossy!

The Rituals foaming shower gel in the October box was full size, 6.7oz., in this box it’s only 1.6 oz. This box isn’t worth getting.
