LOVE the decoret eye shadow. its more purple plum then brown for sure. I use this all the time. The whole box is nice in my opinion. Now that its BOGO free its certainly worth $40 if shipping is free.

The eyeshadow is definitely a winner. I just started using it and love the texture and color. Any time I want a natural look with just a bit spark, this is the eyeshadow I will reach for

I am very disappointed, this box was on sale for $25. I had it in my cart and now it is back to $40. How do they think that it will sell at this price when it is from December?

GB is now running a promotion – but 1 Holiday Limited Edition box, get a second one free. So for $40 you get 2 boxes. Definitely worth it IMO, especially for that serum. I’ve been checking their site regularly bc I lost out on that $25 sale too, but hoped they’d have another sale to clear out the inventory. Anyway, the promotion didn’t work when I tried to order online, so I called Customer Service, and they completed the transaction for me over the phone.

Are there any updated promo codes for this box?

Received my box today. As an FYI Amazon is selling the eye serum for $76 and Raw Spirit is selling the Discovery Set for $25. The other prices listed seem to be accurate. My VDL is in Maple (actually a good color for me) and Decorte in BE 388 (not a good color for me) but I am very pleased with the box.

Received my box today and the Decorte’ eye gem color I got is BE388. It’s a sort of cocoa-ish plum, but probably too brown for my cool coloring.

And how big is the serum? Is it 1oz?

It’s the full size 1 oz. The fold out included with the box shows it lists for 80 but the Cirem website has it for 195!
The other specs and listed values:
Decorte Eye Glow Gem Glossy Eye Color (also got shade BE388) – full size $27
VDL Expert Lip Cube (I got shade 502 Poinsetta) – Full Size $22
Raw Spirit Fragrances – Discovery set – 8 x .05 $65
Rituals Hand Balm – Full size $17
The Beauty Crop Glow Milk Liquid Highlighter full size $19.50
Wunder2 Lash extension stain mascara full size $22
I am so in love with this box. Worth every penny to me.

If the Decorte is their eye gem cream shadow, I’m excited! Saw a YouTube video on it and it looks like a great creamy shimmer shadow that can be used alone or as a base.

The Decorate item looks like the eye glow gem…I hope the shade is an icy color, like white, pearl or lavender.

The Decorte product is actually an eyeshadow, full size. Heard these are amazing, so very excited for this box!!!!

I think the box is fantastic and will make wonderful $40 gifts. I wish some other boxes gave you the option to buy extras without creating new accounts. It would make Christmas shopping easier lol.

I grabbed one before the spoilers because I was scared to miss out. I had also signed up for the mother’s day box and totally would have bought two– or maybe three– but it had sold out 🙁
I am excited to try everything but the lipstick this time around, but I think the other items make up for one miss!

Looks like an amazing box, full of brands I don’t know or like (looking at you RITUALS). For $40 this seems like a great box. It also seems like there $200 value is there and doesn’t include the box for “extra value”.

This box looks great to me. I’ll use almost everything and what I don’t will be stocking stuffers.

The beauty crop has gorgeous highlighters but I’ve never tried this specific one. I tried that liquid one in the bottle with pineapples on it called lighting crew I think it is from birchbox? But that’s all that’s calling me so I think I’ll pass but I might buy that highlighter on it’s own lol

Neither code is working for me. Is thta a sign? lol I was going to gift the serum to my Mom.
Any other codes maybe?

They didn’t work for me either.

If you also enter a pr chase for a monthly subscription, it will take thd $5 off for a total of $56.

I believe these codes only work when simultaneously buying a monthly subscription; at least that’s what people said on the last spoiler post.

I really want this but I probably should resist. If ANY of the promo codes would work for me I would definitely get it. I don’t understand why none of them will work for me. I keep getting a message saying the code is invalid or not applicable to item in my basket. Are they all only for current subscribers?

The other day… when i accidentally added quantity 2 boxes, the HOLIDAY code worked, but when i brought it down to quantity 1, it did not. It also mentioned the code working when you added a subscription to your order.

Wow! Buy it at $ 30 with the GBADVENT code. from an email that I received “Get you holiday calendar” 💕

Thanks for trying. This one didn’t work for me either.

Last year’s did look better. I feel like there should at least be one or two more things in here for the price… bummer

Bought this a couple days ago. Hope the Raw Spirit includes some of the newer scents, I have full size bottles of 5 of their fragrances already. Im good with this box, nice to see a couple new brands to try.

Hmmm… glad I didn’t get this. Compared to the mother’s day and last year’s holiday, it’s pretty disappointing. How have I never heard of the brands? That was not the case with previous LEs.

Sooo regret getting this box even though it includes a $195 serum!

Same. Ughhhhhh so disappointed.

The math doesn’t add up for these six full size items. The serum value is $195.00. The box value is $200.00. The mascara, hand cream and milk hilighter add up to around $57.00. I think the decorte is the gloomy eye gem color which retails for $27.00

Sorry. Auto correct. It should be glossy not gloomy

I bought it and feel very gloomy.

With the exception of the liquid lipstick (I wish they just went away already!), I am quite impressed by the brands and products. I did a bit of research and now I can’t wait to get my box!

Mine will arrive on Wednesday. I will report back with sizes and the Decorte product. I can’t wait to try the serum!

Any way to get the actual sizes?

I know it says full size but there’s perfume sample size set and they had a sample listed as full size in the last holiday box.
