Question please: I’ve had boxycharm base for months now..just started my premium box this month..can I cancel my base and keep my premium box? thanks.

You dont have to keep your base box, thats only if you are subscribed to Boxyluxe, that you have to keep the base box sub. In fact, if somebody wanted to start with the Premium first, they could, they would just be on the waitlist and would have to wait longer since they are not already subscribed with Boxycharm.(Please dont quote me on that, but that is what i have seen and heard through Boxycharm) Hope this helps!

They’ve raised the price of the Spongelle pedi duo to $6 for Premium add-ons. I only noticed because I bought them Monday for $2!
I wonder if they’ve changed the price on anything else?

They did this always. Watch prices on the first day when some have “early acess” there are always a few items and then the next day the prices were different. Not everything, just a few. Its odd.

When I 1st arrived there this pungel was and even offered it wasn’t sold out it wasn’t even offered so I went ahead when I found it put it in my carp but then I read some posts about the price difference so I pulled it

I got the Hourglass blush in Ethereal Glow, wondering if I should get another one tomorrow in Diffused Heat.

I wanted this lighter shade but it was out of stock so I did get the Diffused Heat which I can make work. I’ve been wanting to try Hourglass for ages so excited it was an option at a good price.
My choice item was the Elemis Pads and I almost bought a 2nd one but I need to not go crazy with shopping right now.

I also chose the Elemis pads, and same here with the shopping. I’m also excited to try the Hourglass blush, but decided to stop at 1.

Is logging on to try to score deeply discounted products going to do my head in? Is it worth the stress? Should I set an alarm to make sure I’m on? I’m asking earnestly.

I would get my sleep and if something is there that you absolutely want, when yiu log on…at your leisure, it’s meant to be. It’s just stuff. I don’t let any of these subs hold me hostage. Stay well.

Thank you 🙂 You’re absolutely right. The only thing I see so far in the preview that I really want is the Fresh Soy Cleanser, nothing else is really calling my name lol

I’ve liked the things in my boxes ( other than false lashes) recently but I thought the Add Ons were really lame today. I got a Too Faced lip gloss and some Cover FX drops I always wanted and never got. I think the total was around $10 for both.

How much were the Kate peptides drops? I might try to snag a bottle tomorrow 🙂

Thank you! That’s a steal!

I went to Choice around 10am pst. Add-ons were closed. I kept the tab open & refreshed every so often — finally got in before it was officially announced that add-ons was back open. Wasn’t really impressed. Got the Spongelle pedi set for $2, which is nice, & a Smashbox Always On matte metallic in charcoal for funsies, since it was only $5.

If I cancel my Boxy, will I still get my add-on? I don’t want to keep my Premium subscription, but I want that Hourglass blush!
Reply
Charlotte
You will. I still got my add-ons after canceling my subscription last fall.
Reply
Marion
I think so! Add-ons don’t actually ship with the box. I’m not 100% sure, but I think the first time I did an add-on, I later canceled my box.

Add-ons are back up. I got to it through the shop icon.

I would love to get some of these but it is saying Add -ons are closed.

They replied to one random comment on Insta that they were working on international shipping during the shop downtime.

It’s reopen right now. I just successfully placed an order as of 10:30am PST.

Something must have gone wrong so they shut it down. It has happened before. It will reopen later or tomorrow

Does it normally close that soon?

I don’t think so. Usually, it’s open for days.

Closed for me too.

I just came here to post about this. They still had quite a few products left in stock. I was getting ready to checkout when it closed. 🤷♀️

All I wanted was that Too Faced highlighter that I of course didn’t get in my box since even after six years I still get the worst variants and literally NEVER the best ones. But of course it sold out before I could get it. I normally buy too much at these pop ups but that was all I wanted this time. I’m just over the crappy variants and then not even having the chance to pay extra (on top of paying $60 a month for both boxes) to get the good stuff. Every aspect of their business is a competition and rigged most of the time anyway. I think I’m finally done with Boxy.

I’m convinced that they are playing us like Chess when it comes to your statement. Seems like if you normally buy add ons, they purposefully send you a mediocre box, because they know you’ll just buy what you want in the add ons. I’m very imaginative, so I could be wrong, but it sure seems that way. Lately since I’ve been buying what I didn’t get in my box in the add on store, but boxes have become more and more underwhelming.

So I’m doing my own little boycott from buying add ons.

I’m glad you posted this, I totally forgot add ons were today and I was able to grab another Hourglass blush in a different shade.

I got the Kate S peptide drops, pedicure kit, elemis pads, and the pmd tool. I was anxious to check out, and now that I’ve read the reviews I wish I hadn’t gotten the pmd wand. Waste of $21?

I love my PMD! I’ve been using it every time I wash my face since receiving it early last month. I’ve noticed that my skin is a lot brighter and clearer now. I have combination skin if that helps.

I love my PMD tool! I had bad clogged pores on my nose and after one use, I saw immediate results! I’m in love with it! (for reference: I’m 34 with normal/dry skin, with some breakouts.)

Kate – If you don’t end up wanting the PMD I would so be interested in it! It was one of the things I really wanted that was sold out by the time I was able to get on.
Actually everything I would have wanted was sold out 🙁

I absolutely love my pmd tool; I’ve used it every day since getting it last month and feel like my skin looks smoother and fresher.

Thanks June! The reviews are so mixed. I only want happy news now!! 😂

My last add on order didnt even make it to me, than i was told they were out of stock. I had problems with my orders from popups and add ons the whole time i was subscribed to boxycharm. Yeah, the products and prices are awesome but if you cant even get them after paying for them, it is not worth it, just a let down!

Thank you for always posting when choice/ add-on opens. I always miss out due to not knowing when it opens. Got the elemis pads for choice and added body wipes for my teen age athlete…got to teach freshening up no matter the circumstances!

God that sucks! I wish they’d tell us what time it opened! I got the choice email at 9:30 pacific time and Farmacy was already gone!

At 11:30 eastern it was closed but 11:53 eastern it was open and the pharmacy and pmd were sold out
Ashley
I know! I always get up early on choice day and spend all day constantly refreshing the page. I was on the homepage waiting for choice because I thought they would open at the same time. No! Add-ons were available before choice. I put the Farmacy in my cart and instead of checking out like I should have, I scrolled through the rest of the products. They should really give you a grace period to checkout.
