Already have the bronzer, use to have the ABH would love to own that again 🤞
Never tried the primer so that would be fun as well 💄

I’d be happy with any of these, though I think I’d get more use out of the brow gel. I’ve used it in the past, so I know I’ll like the formula, and I don’t have a gazillion brow gels on hand already.

Well I can pretty much guarantee I’ll get the hoola👎😐🙁

Why? Because it’s the 1 thing you really don’t want? Lolol That’s the way my luck works too!

I would rather have shadow primer, too, although I don’t really need any of these!

Hoping for the eye primer!! I’m out of eye primer and too cheap to buy more rn bc I only do eyeshadow on occasion. I would love to try that one.
but actually I’d be very okay with any of these! I currently use that brow gel so I’d be happy to get an extra, and surprisingly I’ve never tried the hoola bronzer so I want to see how it compares to what I use now (too faced chocolate bronzer).

I want the primer. My skin is already bronze and I don’t use brow gel.

Just “No!” to bronzers. Only well-trained people can apply them properly, and I actually like my pale skin.

I need a new Brow gel 🙂 so the odds are i won’t get it but fingers crossed!

I’m really hoping for the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Gel because I have heard really good things about it.

I would love either the brow gel or the eye primer, which means I will definitely get the bronzer. I’ve been so disappointed by Play recently.

I got an email about the August sneak peek, but what I’m excited about is the email saying that there is “something special coming” for subscribers of 6 months or more. A part of me is also trying to manage my own expectations in case its just another black Sephora eyeliner. lol I wonder what it could be?

They may wow us and give us brown instead, lol. This was what got my attention as well but just like you, I am trying to tame my excitement.

Yes, finally my subscription box addiction works in my favor!!

Same for me!

I know, right!? Last month’s box was a real bummer. I got the blush that won’t even show up on my skin and a lip color that makes me look awful on me, so I almost cancelled. I’m giving this subscription one more month, though because when I get a good box, it’s awesome, but when I get a bad one, it’s awful!
Jenna
I hadn’t even noticed that part of the email. Now I am uber excited!

I have been a subscriber to this since the very beginning and went ahead and canceled. I would love the primer but can’t risk getting another bronzer. As I opened my Allure box last night i realized I am always excited after opening Allure. I am rarely excited by items from Play. Oh well, a few more dollars in the pocket. :). Until the next FFF add ons!

Well i canceled this but now im resubscribing lol i wish they did a review and let you chose the products you wanted cause i like some od the things i get but of course the items i really wanted i dont get so i may have to get 2 boxes

Amy
Wow! This is the first time I can say I’d be happy with any of these.

Courtney
Please God…give me Nars… …I have been on an eye primer hunt for the last two months and REALLY want to try that one..but since I got the Tarte pro contour palette in FFF, I’m sure I’ll get the bronzer lol. However in my app inbox my sneak peek was a hair styling product

Love the Nars primer!

Jennie
NARS prime is one of the best, if not the best. I’m praying I get it to cos it’s expensive.

After last month’s box, I decided to re-sub to Play. I think that was the first time where I saw so many variations where I would have kept every single product. Play is typically like Ipsy was for me in that there’s always at least one or two items I end up gifting. With these spoilers, I already have the bronzer & brow tamer, but I wouldn’t be upset to get another since I like them both, but the primer would be gifted. I can’t wait to see the other spoilers!
Reply
Jamie
None of these really excite me, but I would prefer not to get the bronzer. I don’t know how to use bronzer tbh and every time I try I just look like a mess lol. If i get it I’ll just swap it. I’m sure someone on here will want it 🙂

Juliya
Never tried any of those items before, so good spoilers 🙂
Reply
Danielle
None of this is thrilling to me. I’ve tried both the brow gel and bronzer several times. I guess I’d prefer the NARS since I haven’t tried it, but meh.
Reply
Emma
The NARS is my favorite eye primer.
So, of course, I won’t get it, but it’s a nice product IMO.
Reply
Danielle
I really hope I don’t get the brow gel. It’s such a popular item in sub boxes and I never use them. Hoola is a solid product but hoping for the Nars since I’v never tried it.

Ehh, nothing interesting. And I’m so sick of bronzer & highlighters!
Reply
Kim
I have a gazillion highlighters! I hear ya. Guaranteed, years from now it’s not going to be “in” to GLOW anymore and the matte look will be back again. I have way more highlighters than I’ll ever use.

Jamie
Same!
