I like this but I haven’t been wowed by the quality of ciaté eye shadows in the past, despite loving their nail and lip products. Also, how did I miss that this box price increased to $23?!?! I will be subscribing less frequently now. 🙁

This really isn’t a wow brand. Mediocre. You’d be much better subbing to Boxy they have the Huda ruby obsessions. Seriously gorgeous colors and the quality is absolutely amazing!! 🙏💚💯

That peach and lily serum is my favorite. I bought a second allure box the month it was in it just to get two. I have used it almost every day since I’ve received it and I’ve noticed a huge difference in the texture of my skin.
I wish I could get it as a new subscriber gift even though I’ve been subbed for years!
A full palette from a known and reputable brand is a great start for this box and I can’t wait to see the rest.

I love the Peach and Lily serum too. I’m glad to be getting another one. Since the pandemic and quarantining, I don’t use much makeup, but my beauty routines have been spectacular and my skin has never looked better, even through the mask wearing.

Agree J. I keep Peach and Lily in rotation.

None of these shadow shades appear to be red- Hooray! I’m not into red eyeshadow. Wish the serum was part of the monthly and not the extra gift. Curious tp try that.

The Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining Serum was one of the July 2020 full size products. So it makes sense to put it as a gift with new box but also tells me they have a lot of extra bottles. I am excited to get a palette, since working from home I restricted myself of buying makeup but I want something new in my collection.

I dont get why everyone wants skincare…why not get a many skincare only boxes?? I’d rather have makeup and a little skincare. Allure was never all skincare. I think it’s been to skincare heavy as is. As with the price increase, they should send FULL SIZE pallettes with GOOD brands on the regular.

Especially since the brand is fashion geared and also gives out “allure beauty of the year” stamps on different products..and we dont even get sent any of those products that win “Allure of 2020” or whatever

I stopped subbing to makeup heavy boxes because I was tired of getting colors that look terrible on me. I was throwing out full size $20 lip glosses because they were always “Nude” or too dark for me. Or I’d get another eye shadow brush for the bazillionth time. Hard to please so many people. Another reason I like Allure is because I know what I’m going to be getting, The variations are minimal. Nothing like waiting hopefully for an item you really want then having your hopes crushed when the box arrived. With Allure I can check the spoilers and set my expectations realistically. I was thinking of doing Dermstore’s Beauty fix, but this month they didn’t ship out one of their full size products that they promised and everyone is complaining. I love checking spoilers and getting excited about the new products. It’s something that brightens my day.

You think Allure is too skincare heavy because it IS skincare heavy, which is why a lot of us like it. In the past 6 months, they have never had more than 2 makeup items in a box, and often one of those two is more makeup-adjacent like a brush or a lip oil. I’m not mad about the palette at all. I expected a couple of makeup items, per usual. I’m just not particularly excited about the spoiler and am looking forward to seeing what else is in the box.

I’ve been with allure 6 years and have never skipped a box. It used to be more makeup based. We used to get MAC and Natasha denona and other GOOD brands in here to try out…now its tiny tubes of skincare and MAYBE a highlighter…why keep ruining subs to all skin and hair junk when there are so many out there already and now its HARD to find a true makeup sub these days. I dont mind one or two skin care things here and there but it must be cheap or the skin care companies cant give away samples fast enough because the sub boxes sure arent sending makeup and a lot of people WANT a more makeup heavy box, or at the very least a gair monthly mix of both and not a highlighter

April

As someone who doesn’t wear makeup because I’m allergic to a lot of it, I can tell you that there are very few boxes that are just or even mostly skincare – especially in this price range. I’d like to get a just skincare box and Allure is the closest I’ve found to that. You can customize BirchBox and IPSY all you want and I still get about half makeup related items – even though I’ve been very specific about not wanting those items. Makeup folks have lots of choices for boxes. Skincare – not so much.

Jamey

But they still have beautyfix, testtube, and a lot others that are skincare geared to the point there are hardly any legit makeup subs these days and someone in the “fashion industry ” should have contacts with the best makeup companies out here…..ipsy sends odd stuff remade for them, boxy has now switched up way too much to skin/hair gunk and now earrings etc…there are not any true makeup subs like their used to be and allure used to be more makeup….

I was so disappointed in November’s box and October’s. I was going to cancel if December’s box was horrible too. Now I’m actually excited. I know some people don’t care for Ciate products but the ones I have are amazing. I love the way they feel on my skin. I normally prefer more skincare to makeup but I do enjoy palettes. I think I’m in the minority on that. I’m newer to boxes so I’m not overloaded and I have three girls ages 11,12, and 17 who all love makeup. I can’t afford the nicer brands so this helps with that. I started subbing because it’s the only way to get these nicer brands for less than $20.

I agree… I love skincare as well, but it having subscription boxes let me be able to send my 14yr old niece makeup. I like that they have brands that I feel are too expensive for me and I get them at discount prices and dont have to worry I’m spending too much .

Happy about the Peach and Lily! I actually really love Ciate’s setting powder but I don’t need another palette. I’ll gift it or donate it.

Joy-Not the Other One

Jean, if I’m reading it correctly, the Peach & Lily serum is not included in the December box but is a free gift only if you purchase Allure beauty box as a gift subscription for someone. This seems to be confusing a lot of people. MSA, can you clarify? Thanks!

Reply ButtonReply

Jean

Thanks – you are correct. I have an unopened Peach & Lily anyway so it’s probably best not to add to my ever growing stash!

Mallory @ MSA

Hi! Yes, that’s correct. A full size Peach & Lily Glass Skin Serum is a free gift when gifting the Allure box. Hope this helps!

Joyleth

Hi, right now i have this subscription and i want to cancell it. Can someone help me saying how to do it? On my profile account there is no option of this.

thanks.

not excited about getting as i am not exactly using it right now. so i’m bummed but i saw someone else mention that they get a little make up heavy around the holidays.

i joined allure for skincare.

i wish one month they gave us a whole routine – cleanser, mask, serum, eye cream, acne treatment, night lotion, day lotion (maybe a toner or special treatment)…… not from the same brand but just a nice set of products that we could all use

Allure has been more skincare heavy as of late, but they have always included makeup in their boxes. If you want a skincare-only box, I would suggest you check out Beautyfix, or SeeNewSkincare, which ships every other month and always features a near-complete routine in every box.

I did not know about SEE NEW SKINCARE. It seems great and I enrolled. Thank you so much. I do BeautyFix / TestTube / Allure and now this new one. I would never be able to afford all these products individually … and I’m hoping it helps keep me looking young 😁😁😁

I absolutely LOVE this website and all the wonderful advice and tips I have gotten my moneys worth because of all of you thanks again.

Sara

Agree. I only signed up for Allure because of skin care. I have boxy and Ipsy and have to give all makeup away. I had Dermstore didn’t like the small mini samples you only get one full size not worth it to me. This will be a gift so it doesn’t waste either 🙂

You’d probably enjoy Beautyfix from Dermstore, more, then.

I was initially really excited for this. I love palettes because I hate keeping track of a bunch of small eyeshadows. But then I read reviews on Sephora for other Ciate products, and I’m not so excited anymore. I also personally hate the Dewy Stick from Ciate that Allure sent out many months ago. From the reviews on two other Ciate palettes this could be a disaster…

I don’t mind palettes but is it just me or are there SOOO many palettes with these exact same mauvey reddish colors?

Amber )-(

It’s not you. This color story is in every box right now. If I’m going to get ten pallets in the same color group I wish they were a color that actually looked good on me.

Don’t use and drowning in palettes…
There’s only so much you can give away as gifts… Even the person who I usually gave palettes as present had told me she has way too many of them cos I kept giving her the palettes lol
Allure had been pretty lousy since they increased the price…
Foolish me for thinking allure is more skincare focused sigh…
Wish full spoilers soon so I can decide if skipping or not.

I much prefer skincare stuff, but am looking forward to the palette. I have a lot of palettes but they are pretty old and some need to go, so it’ll be nice to have a new one.

LMAO I just commented last night at being surprised we had no spoilers yet… This looks like a really pretty color story though! I’ve never tried Ciate London’s makeup but I guess I’ll get the chance now! Good first spoiler.

I am skipping for the 3rd month in a row. I still have 2 of the Juvia’s place pallets they sent maybe 2 years ago. That was frustrating on it’s own as they weren’t supposed to send repeats. But alas, they did. I am stocked up on pallets. Love using them, don’t need more especially in these colors.

Frankly, I’m just excited to get some actual make-up vs yet another serum/eye cream/whatever. I’m game to try it, and I am also looking forward to the December bod. It’s usually a good one.

Also, got my “mega” box today. Filled with leftover samples from the past 1.5 years of boxes.

I removed the “Night Shift” setting on my phone to see if those colors were as warm as they looked, and they still looked orangey overall to me. I’m surprised by how long the trend of rust-colored eyeshadow has lasted. It looks just awful on me, despite the fact that my skin tone trends warm.

I might be the only one who isn’t excited. I dislike this brand and I’m drowning in eyeshadow

No uso sombras ..ni liquidas ni en polvo ..ya siempre vienen estas cosas …tendría q tener un opcional o de igual valor para los que no quieren nada de make up y poder darle un uso a toda la caja …..

Beka

I think she said—
I do not use shadows … neither liquid nor powder … these things always come … I would have to have an optional or of equal value for those who do not want anything to make up and be able to put the whole box to use …

Also Beth

To me palettes are the best way to make a box feel valuable to me, so I’m super happy about this spoiler! I would honestly be happy getting a palette a month, though I know I’m in the minority there.

But this one also looks particularly pretty to me! Kinda boring, but I love the mix of shimmers and mattes. It’s a bummer that it probably won’t arrive by Christmas, but ah well.

I really like this palette! I skipped the past 2 months, but I might sign back up.
