I received the Black Opium perfume sample in my Sephora Play box. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to open it. It is not the little spray sample you typically get. This is black and my husband could not figure it out either. HELP.
Make sure you don’t open it at angle, make sure it’s in the bottom part, and don’t open it roughly. It actually snaps off pretty easily, and then you can turn the cap that just came off to close it up by turning it upside down and putting it back on like that.
I did know how to open it, either, I had to look it up lol. Cause this is one of my favorite perfumes. That being said, I still don’t know why they’d make a bottle like this, when a regular sample spray would do just fine.
I had the same issue! My dad had to open it for me by ripping the top off and the perfume spilled out everywhere, it’s not even a spray. It was a total ripoff.
I have box 810 and from what people have been saying for spoilers I’m really happy with what’s inside. Last month was a total dud, getting three foundations that don’t match when you don’t even wear foundation 😂 I hope that everyone gets everything they want ❤️
Hi Charlotte! 😊 From what I was told, this is that is in box 810:
Artist Couture diamond glow powder
Ciate London watermelon burst hydrating
primer
Devacurl melt-in moisture matcha butter
conditioning mask
Kiehl’s calendula serum infused water cream
Skinfix redness recovery + antioxidant redness treatment overnight mask
Versace bright crystal
I am excited about this box! I am SO grateful there is no mascara! I have the Clinique almost lipstick in black honey, so hoping this is the pink honey version, but I won’t be sad to have a double either.
You’re right. On second thought, the Clinique lipstick is the only thing I wouldn’t use. I didn’t realize how good the Lancome serum was until I read reviews. The water cream I can use on my kids chapped cheeks at least
I guess I just never realized how much ppl don’t read the posts? Literally half the posts could be resolved if ppl just read what’s already here lol. There should just be a pinned post that tells how to get your box # and all the rest should be deleted 🤷
I appreciate the spoilers but I have learned that my box often differs from what is stated. It seems rather wasteful to send one person 3 out of the 4 products promised in each box.
Maybe wasteful wasn’t the correct word. I was trying to say that I don’t really need to get 3 of the 4 promised items because it limits me from trying items from the other categories. And it seems like while some people get multiple items from the promised categories, other people don’t receive any.
Any spoilers for box #956? I asked customer service yesterday and they told me they wanted to keep it a surprise and wouldn’t tell me! I wanted to know what I was getting before I placed an order for full size…
From looking on here last month about the box and on the site about the box, I think I’m one of like, 3 people that liked it lol. I don’t particularly care for much of anything I’ve seen being offered this month. The lipstick looks alright. Other than that, I don’t really see anything. I loved last month’s box, but I never get tired of trying new foundations. I believe there could always be one out there that I like more than what I’m using.
Out of my 3 subs, this is always my favorite, though. I’d ditch either of the other two for this one in a heartbeat. And it’s the only one who didn’t have a price increase. Can’t go wrong, imo
786 is Box A:
Lancome Hypnose Drama Instant Full Body Volume Mascara SKU 2281384
Nars Iconic Lipstick SKU 2281384
Clinique Almost Lipstick SKU 2281400
Glamglow Glowstarter Mega Illuminating Moisturizer SKU 2281434
Dr Jart Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment SKU 2281475
Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium SKU 2281509
I sent a message to customer support on the community page regarding the expired foundation in October’s play box. They gave me 100 bonus points. Not bad, makes up for not getting the 50 point card, too.
I have box #794, and here is what it is showing that will be in it:
Clinique Almost Lipstick (Color: Black Honey)
Artist Couture Diamond Glow Powder (Color: Yasss!)
DevaCurl Melt into Moisture Matcha Butter Conditioning Mask
Kiehl’s Calendula Serum-Infused Water Cream
Lancome Genifique Youth Activating Serum
Atelier Cologne Pacific Lime Cologne Absolue Pure Perfume
Not the most exciting box- I am not a fan of DevaCurl, so will probably give it, the Clique lippy, and the Glow Powder to one of my friends. I already use Genifique, so having another little travel one is nice. Kiehl’s makes great products, so I look forward to trying the cream. And Atelier Colognes are always lovely- but an odd choice for November. While I will use 3 of the 6 items, I wish there was a way Sephora tracked what they’ve already sent us in the past so we didn’t keep getting the same repeats (ugh, DevaCurl!). It would be nice to see a box with all new items (even some Sephora brands) versus 1 or 2 new items and the same recycled stuff that has become the norm. It used to be exciting to get the monthly Play! box- now, it is just “meh.”
I called customer service today because I’m 810 as well. They said to call back in a few days that their system wasn’t showing anything yet for November. I’m going to call back in a few days so I will keep you posted!
Hi LP,
I copied this from my post yesterday.
According to customer service box 810 includes:
Artist Couture diamond glow powder
Ciate London watermelon burst hydrating
primer
Devacurl melt-in moisture matcha butter
conditioning mask
Kiehl’s calendula serum infused water cream
Skinfix redness recovery + antioxidant redness treatment overnight mask
Versace bright crystal
Thank you! I’m actually happy with this box, but I am a skin/haircare fanatic. Plus I love perfumes. I also have curly hair, so I wonder if it was targeted at us curly girls.
