Allure Beauty Box October FULL SPOILERS Box #2 + $5 Coupon!

How can I know what box am I getting?
I really wanted the YSL lipgloss…

Fingers crossed for Variation two! I love those eye masks!!! They feel comfortable and work well for me. 🙂 Plus Oribe is always amazing. I don’t wear lip products often (other than lip balm and tints) so I am hoping those who actually want the YSL get it and not me!

I never got the La Mer mini welcome gift. Does anyone know how long it takes to receive it? Thanks!

I was billed today.

When does Allure usually charge for this box? My account says active but they haven’t tried charging me yet. Last month was my first month and I signed up mid-month. Maybe that has something to do with it?

This isn’t a comments section it’s a 24/7 whiner’s line. Someone suggested 2 different boards. One for those interested in spoilers and one for ppl to complain and complain with each other.

Tired of scrolling forever to find one interesting and useful comment.

I received my box through Amazon. It is version 1. The ceramic slip cleanser is in the blue tube. The booklet lists 4 colors for the YSL. I’m planning to use 5 of the products myself and add the other 2 to Christmas beauty gifts.

I received my box today and it was variation 1. It also had the new version of the SR cleanser as pictured in variation 2/3. My booklet also showed 4 variations of the lip stain. I think this is a great box!

I order from amazon and got box 1 today! The ceramic slip cleanser does have the new packaging like shown in version 2 picture. While we don’t have a full size item this month I am loving the samples in this box! My booklet also says the Yves Saint Laurent lip stain has 4 variant colors. Rouge Tatouage, rosewood gang, nude emblem and singular taupe. I got the nude emblem which is a great color for me. I can’t pull off red so I was thrilled to see the color variations!

Is the good genes a variation??

I am not that wowed I don’t want samples. I just unsubbed I would like at least one or two items full size not excepting an expensive $60+ full size but maybe the first aid cream. Something right

November is a bust for me–I don’t like masks, and especially not charcoal masks. (I prefer an electric facial brush.) When do the December and January spoilers usually come out? I’m thinking about taking a subscription break, but I’ve liked the “holiday” boxes in the past.

I just got an email from Allure with the sneak peek of October, and in the picture is the Ysl lipstick.

I received my September box a few days, and when I opened it, the coconut gel tube was mangled and the gel all over everything else in the box. I contacted CS and they said they would send me out another box. Does anyone have any experience with receiving a replacement and have any idea how long it usually takes to get it? Also do you get the exact same box? I liked everything I was getting, but the website says the September box is sold out.

Lots of complaints here!! I on the other hand am very happy with Allure! The only issue I have had with them was taken care of by their CS. Yes, the shipping is a little wacky, but I always seem to get my box. I actually like getting it later in the month, because all of my other subs come early in the month. It gives me something to look forward to! As far as the variants go…..I am paying $15 a month for a box of great products. I did question if they were sending out products from last year that were leftover for this months variants, but I was able to confirm that wasn’t the case. If I wasn’t happy with them, I would be more than happy to take the $15 and put it towards a product that I really did want. Maybe that’s a great idea for most of the unhappy people here. I came to this thread to originally comment on the mask month coming up in November, but I got so frustrated with reading all of the complaints. I have learned to have patience and gratitude in my 37 years and I have been a much happier person since then.

A long story here lol.

I subbed in July and received the box plus a lippie as a new customer gift. I was happy with the box, and I only cancelled Allure to switch over to Amazon. Didn’t have problems cancelling, and I bought the August box through there. Even though the August box was meh I was generally happy about the sub.

Late August I received a “come back” promotion which I took advantage of. Cancelled Amazon and switched back to Allure for the September box. I signed up at around Sept 2 or 3 and got the box around 24th. It took a while, but the box did arrive. I was surprised to get the Ole Henriksen scrub with it, which was advertised as a gift for new subscribers! Not only that, the come back gift also arrived a few days later. It was missing an item (packaging was in there but the product isn’t), but I wouldn’t fuzz about it at this point.

I’m sorry to everyone who’s had problems, and I believe all your problems are legit. I too am uncomfortable with the way they leave us blind about billing and shipping. I cancelled Allure back then due to that, not because I disliked the sub.

But credit is given where it’s due. I’ve had three boxes with no problems from Allure so far, got the gifts I was promised and then some. It’s a shame that Allure can’t seem to deliver the same service to all it’s subscribers, old or new. If only they’ll have that sorted out it really is a great sub.

Allure Beauty Box Customer Service Number: 1-800-274-1603 Allure DOES want to hear from their subscribers about how we feel about the whole variation thing. Allure’s customer service system does not make any sense. I’ve been subscribed for a little over a year. So I should have gotten the bauble bar earrings. Apparently those were supposed to be an anniversary gift??? At least that’s what I was told when I called with a few questions. Left with some questions unanswered. I’m not getting any email responses from Allure. Sometimes I get the auto response, sometimes I don’t. When I first subscribed, emailing worked just fine but not now so I asked why? She didn’t know. They are basically two different departments. What?! Seriously?! Sooooooo, there’s the email part of CS and then the phone center CS and neither one knows what’s what or what’s going on and the 2 CS departments can’t see or know what’s going on with the other? They are not giving out any “deals” right now because some subscribers are getting away with a lot of freebies. Email CS is giving some people $10 boxes plus extra boxes and gifts. Then when that’s all done, phone CS ends up doing something similar for that subscriber or vise versa. Apparently people are aware that Allure basically has 2 different CS departments and people are taking advantage of that? There’s a pretty simple fix to that one Allure. I can see Allure losing subscribers over their CS and the box variations.

Im a bit sad and frustrated with Aluure. I ordered a wnd box for my Mom and took the payment off of my cc, i xalled to see what was going on, they told me that they shipped the box out to me already which wasnt true. I got my box but not my Mom’s. I called them yesterday they lady confirmed that she would resend the box with no problem.. i went to their website this morning and it said all of the boxes were sold out, so i called customer service again and she said my cc didnt clear which aasnt true. I told her that i have the email of the receipt. Next she said that they will send my the october 2016 bo , i asked why not the oct. 2018. She said it would be 2017 and then she would have to check again. Next i was told they will refund me my koney and send me oct. 2018 box. Honestly im so disappointed in their service. They customer rep. From yesterday could have told me they were sold out instead of telling me they would ship my Mom’s lost box knowing that they were sold out, in which i was tild it would ship out yesterday. Its a huge disappointment that they are givng confusing information. So i cancelled my account. I honestly doubt that they will send me the october box after refunding my money. They honestly need to have a meeting updating everyone daily of what is going on in their company, becausebtheir customer service is suffering and its makingbtheir company look bad.

I just called to ask about the variations and the YSL not even being shown as a variation on the Allure Beauty Box site. It was the worst customer service ever. First the guy told me that my subscription addiction knows more about what’s going on then he does because he has not even seen the YSL lip product (I didn’t even know what that was). Then I told him that I wanted to cancel since that doesn’t even seem to be an option. He said okay I’ll cancel your box. I asked why some people get offered a $10 rate when they cancelled he said no they don’t the $10 rate is only for the first box and then it’s 15 a month. I said know if you look at the comments you’ll see that when most people call to cancel their offer discounted rate of $10 either for a month or 3 months it happens all the time. He said no it doesn’t they don’t have a $10 rate and they haven’t for the last year-and-a-half!! so I guess everybody on here is lying when they say that they’re paying $10 a month?? Either way I wasn’t offered any discount to stay with them he didn’t seem to give a crap.

Man the swap side is difficult to navigate. I just want to buy/swap for people’s Drunk Elephant Baby Facial and it looks like I have to individually list every item I have before I can contact anyone to see what they want? I can’t even offer to just buy it.

Really don’t want the YSL. Tired of getting lipsticks I’ll never wear. Allure sends me a lot of those. I really want version 2. I actually REALLY want no variations tbh. Variations suck.

I truly think that Allure is trying to stay away from variants, but they end up having to use them if they don’t have enough of any one product. And I’m not surprised it is the YSL in this case. I don’t think they are trying to do a bait and switch, I think that the new subscribers that they had planned on have now exceeded what they anticipated. This happened way back with the Foreo inclusion and got a lot of ppl upset, some current subscribers, but mainly new. I would hope that for those that have had the sub delivered for at least 2 months, that they actually get the spoiled box. I highly suggest subbing at least a month ahead if you are trying to get a specific box/variation in the future. And I am surprised no one mentioned it, but almost all boxes ONLY give us spoilers one month at a time. I am happy all the way around with Allure for $10 or $15, including no shipping or tracking emails, crappy customer service, etc if it means that every once in a while I get a SINGLE product that is worth almost 6x the price of the box if you paid $15 and over 8x the price if you paid only $10 (here’s looking at you SR CEO serum). Of course I want better customer service, a better website design, etc, but we all have fairly high expectations of bang for your buck with beauty boxes, and I think Allure has been continuously bringing an A game when it comes to brands. We barely see drugstore brands included anymore!!!

Does anyone know how to reach customer service? When I login to my account it keeps taking me to the magazine and not to the box. I never received my September box.

Just resub today, love it when allure gives you a ton of skincare! Even with the variations it’s still a best box like the July 2018 box.

Even though I’m not dying over the YSL, I would still like to try it, and it was spoiled way back in June or July if I’m not mistaken. As well as the DE Babyfacial. I specifically subscribed to Allure last November because I was SO over variations and Allure rarely if ever had any. I wanted to try the “Too Cool for School” egg mellow cream and mask. That month was a complete disaster, I believe they had 4 completely different box variations. And I’m talking ALL products were different!!! It was just my freaking luck, the month I signed up, but of course! I ended up getting a bunch of random stuff, none of which was advertised. The silly thing is, from reading comments on all these threads from various subscriptions it seems people are pretty evenly split when it comes to what they prefer. Why not add an option to our account page where we can select the version we prefer or dont do variations at all!!!! ARE YOU HEARING US SUB COMPANIES? WE DONT WANT VARIANTS!
