For those who maybe were interested in this box but weren’t subscribed at the time, Macy’s now has a “Created for Macy’s 9-Pc. Hair Care Routine Favorites Set” on sale for $21, which includes all of these items (minus the perfume sample), plus a few more – Fatboy Defining Finish texture spray, Sunday Riley Scalp Serum, Drybar Jumpstart Blowout Serum, and what looks like a very nice large holographic makeup bag (honestly I remember they were selling one last year for like $20 or something).
They are also offering a mystery sampler AND a free deluxe size product (the drop-down selection has like 20 to choose from) with a beauty purchase, so you are definitely not missing out on much with that perfume.
PLUS the May and the June boxes are currently available as add-ons.
What’s the deal with no box review for January yet and spoilers for February?? I switched from allure in November and have not been very impressed so far…
Hi Weez! Macy’s Beauty Box has been facing some shipping delays, which is why our review for the January box isn’t live yet. However, our reviewer is now working on it, and we hope to have it up on the site soon!
Please forward this concern to Macy’s Beauty Box department. You coupon codes are NOT working online. January’s code and February code do NOT work on any beauty purchase online. Please fix these errors for future bursary box shipments. Thanks.
I had the same experience with my December and January coupons. (I don’t think the February coupon has been sent yet). I didn’t get the Jo Malone box in October, and the other boxes since then have been disappointing to say the least. And the last 2 coupons don’t work. Clearly, the Macy’s beauty box program is ‘not ready for prime time’ since it resumed. I cancelled with no regrets.
I just received my box today. No substitution and the mini hair iron came in the box. I ordered the hair kit and it didn’t come in the box, but was inside of the makeup box along with other items.
I received my box yesterday, and am quite pleased. My hair has suffered during the pandemic and it is wonderful to try new products! All the brands look excellent, and the hair iron is quite a bonus. I am enjoying Macy’s boxes: they are well worth the money!
Me again! The Rahua shampoo and conditioner work so well that I am ordering full size! I finally used the dry shampoo and root lifter and am similarly impressed. And yes, the perfume sample is “gorgeous” . For me, this was a great box.
With all the talk going on, I decided to login to my Macy’s account to see if it said anything other than “Waitlist” – which it did! I don’t know why but it read “Cancelled” on 1/3/2021. What’s up with that? I clicked a button & rejoined the Waitlist. They must be having all manner of backend trouble…
I just received this email from Macys: “Due to unforeseen circumstances there will be a delay in shipping your January Beauty Box. We are working hard to process your order and will notify you when your order ships with your tracking information.
If you have questions about your current Beauty Box subscription, please visit your Macy’s Beauty Box Subscription to manage your account.
We highly value you as a customer and thank you for shopping at Macy’s!”
I don’t remember if I’ve received this from them before or not and whether or not it really was late after they sent it. I’ll update when I get it.
I just got that e-mail too….funny thing is, I got an e-mail yesterday saying that my order shipped. I tracked the package and it’s scheduled to be delivered 1/13…..
Interesting … there are a couple of other created for Macy’s sets, an eye and lip and night out. I wouldn’t want the night out but would be okay with the eye or lip as a $15 beauty box. Night in would be okay too.
MSA, please review this box. I don’t think it is reviewed since they came back in October. October/Jo Malone box was my first Macy’s beauty box. I am more than happy to receive tools/life style items instead of makeup bags which I have plenty of. I ordered the hair care kit when it went on sale, so there will be a lot of duplicate for me. But thanks to sub boxes, now I enjoy different hair items and take care of my hair a lot more than before. So, the difference between the hair care kit and Jan. box is: different Drybar item, no Sunday Riley, no Fatboy, but perfume sample. I am curious to know the value of the mini hair iron as this hair care kit says “$115 total value” for $35.
I just got an email that they cancelled my January box because my card was declined. I got a new card due to fraud and forgot to update it in time. I called customer service and after getting transferred 3 times I was told that they aren’t able to re-process the charge but I will receive the February box. Ugh I really wanted this box! If any one doesn’t want theirs I’m your gal!
Getting this box is iffy. I didnt Get my December box because it said I fid Not have a valid address, yet all my Black Friday purchases to the same address went through no problem.
I did Not change a thing yet my January box is on its way. Every month I get It is a surprise.
Oh my goodness. I’m beginning to think I have a sub box problem. I received about 7 straighteners in my boxes over the last year. I have gifted to all the woman I know. This one I will donate 🙂
It did seem as though companies were giving flat irons with everything! You may want to reconsider donating this one because it is a very nice flat iron that is the “perfect” size for both storing and traveling as it has the power and temperature of a full size one! I am a retired hairstylist (award winning for over 30 years) that would recommend keeping it!
Am going through old reviews and am happy to see this. I was going to gift the straightener to a friend, but seeing as the only one I’ve had broke down (plus your stellar review of it) I’ve decided to keep it.
She is still getting the fragrance sample & hair texture spray, as it fits her more than me.
Happy with this box. Good items to start the year with!
I used to dislike shampoo/conditioner/dry shampoo/hair oil…until I realized they’re some of the few items I always use up lol. Hope the straightener’s decent & nothing’s switched out.
Same problem. I couldn’t get it to work online so I tried to use it in the store. The cashier said it was reading “wrong department.” I might try calling customer service
Hi Ranee… They told me I would receive the Feb box also, but just received the email that January shipped & I was successfully billed. Maybe you will end up with the January box also?
I’m still on the wait list, according to my account… I had a subscription briefly 2 years ago but canceled and I wonder if that has anything to do with my current status.
I’d love to sell mine to you whenever I receive it. I got most of these products in a Macy’s hair kit I bought recently. Email me travelingtash at aol dot com.
Although I have way too many dry shampoos than I can use for the next 2 years and I can’t see myself using the hair straightener, I still think this is a great box. It’s only $15 and a great curation of hair products. This is much improved over the last couple boxes and I hope it means Macy is getting their act back together with these beauty boxes.
I used to subscribe to Allure and think this one is way better these days. Looking forward to receiving this January Macy’s box.
I am excited about this box! Looks well planned and thought out.
What I’m upset about is MSA!
I use to love this site. Liz was the best. She stayed on top of things. Now, we’re not getting spoilers early. These have been out awhile too.
Before Christmas Macy’s put their advent calendar on sale and I read about it here on MSA but when I tried to purchase it- sold out. Later, I found out that it had been on sale for days! This wouldn’t have happened when Liz was in charge.
I know sometimes it takes time but at this point the only reason I’m sticking around is because of the people I have met here.
Hi Margie! Thanks for your feedback. Although Liz stepped aside earlier this year, I can assure you that everyone on our team LOVES subscription boxes just as much as our readers do. We post spoilers and sales as soon as we see them, but sometimes limited edition items (like the Macy’s Advent Calendar) sell out quickly. We’re doing our best to provide updated info on our site, and we welcome any feedback that you may have: [email protected]
I am super excited for this box. Love not getting a make up bag. I just threw away about 10. I have fine hair. Love getting a root lift to try. Those of us with thin, flat hair….a great box. And the mini straighter… can flatten the frizz. Great for vacation…if we ever get to go again…😖
Hi, Linda. The next time you have makeup bags, samples, etc that you don’t want or need, you may want to consider donating to your local women’s shelter. A lot of women have to leave with just the clothes on their back. Shelters always appreciate donations.
You can also use it as a quick get rid of a few wrinkles/flatten collar instead of pulling out the iron. Usually heats up faster too. I already have completely straight hair, so I’m actually excited for the scrunchie; with that fabric and size i can put it up wet at night and have some wave in the morning for volume!
I canceled this sub, but not in time to avoid this box. I have straight, fine hair- no use for the straightener or even the scrunchie. But hopefully I’ll get the other products, and not more Oops substitutions. Zero regret about canceling.
