FabFitFun Summer 2021 Box Full Spoilers

Yikes! That’s really bad! Did you pick the cooler bag? I know there were some quality control issues with that so they swapped it out for something else. But that shouldn’t have affected any of the other picks! Hopefully customer service will sort it for you. I’m still waiting on mine to ship 🙁

So weird. Do they not read the comments to notice the oversight or is it just not a priority?

I know. That’s why I posted all the options from the FFF forum in the comment section. I don’t know why MSA didn’t post them all.

I would also like to find a code for the annual subscription, I can only find the “10$ off your first box” codes and they don’t work for the annual sub. 🙁

Mented Cosmetics channel on youtube has a video: “Swatches of Peachy Keen Liquid Lipstick on Different Complexions”. After watching that video, I think it would be great for lighter skin tones/lighter colored hair. The picture here makes it look very dark. I’m a white brunette gone red, 1/4 Syrian, and even though my skin tone is fair to light sallow with freckles, have always favored the darker colors. It seems to me that I’ve received so many nudes and light rose colored lip products in beauty subscription boxes, once in a while a red. I have plenty of those. I want all three colors here, but definitely the peachy keen.

Oh I LOVE Fenty!! <3

There are actually 11 choices, for which someone kindly posted the entire list on another spoiler page on MSA. My understanding is annual members can choose 1 from the 11, and seasonal members can choose from choices 1-3.

You get 6, 7, or 8 items total, depending on which bundle/item you pick for the last category. As I understand it, seasonal members (who will not get to select for the last category) will get a bundle of 3 items, so all seasonal members will get 8 items total.

If you get one of the bundles for choice 6, you’ll get 8 items. If you choose a larger ticket item, you’ll only get 6, but it will be worth more.

Hey Christina, you can’t buy a one off seasonal box directly. If you skip, you can use the credit towards add ons in your next box or shopping the sales they have. You can’t use the credit towards renewing your subscription. While you can’t buy a box directly, you can buy one from their sales (they often have extra boxes for sale) but you generally can’t customize them. HTH. I skipped the spring box and plan on using some of the credit I got for that box for add ons in the summer box.

My understanding is that you can’t use the credit toward renewal but can use it toward sales or extra items in boxes.

I’m good w that since their jewelry is cheap

Causebox is good for eco and houseware items! Just note you must be annual member to choose. And they have delayed shipping timelines.

I totally agree with this! My biggest wish is that it would be possible for me to get a FFF with no skincare/haircare if I wanted to, but they tend to have a category or two (like this season’s Cat. 4) that make that pretty tough to avoid. With the new fully customizable setup in particular, a totally non-beauty choice would have made me SO happy!
(I also totally love the app suggestion. Honestly, I know this would be controversial but I would personally be happy to use a whole category choice for a year’s subscription to a mindfulness, fitness, or language app!)

Yes, completely agree. I love the idea of fitness apps and, as a counselor, I love the idea of a mindfullness app sub. I have a great set of beginners workout items with resistance bands, sliders, and a great pilates workout bar thru fab fit fun that I love. I wish we had more lifestyle options because I’m up to my eyeballs in skin care and hair care items.

Or, you could upload the past each category spoiler in a single side-scroll.

Agreed!

Just because you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean others haven’t. I regularly buy Ouai at Tj Maxx at a huge discount.

I don’t understand what’s confusing. A lot of the items resemble items you can easily find at TJ Maxx. I love TJM, but in a sub box I’m looking for something that maybe I can’t find for 4.99 in a discount store (I’ve seen both Supergoop and Ouai at TJM). It’s just a preference.

You will get one of the first 3 bundles only (listed below) . FFF stated this very clearly in their forums.

1. Eyeko Double Act Shadow Stick in Cookies & Cream $25
Art & Cook Citrus Squeezer $15
Aria Beauty Makeup Swabs $15
Total value: $55

2. Seraphine Botanicals Fruit Butter Lip Mask $25
Art & Cook Citrus Squeezer $15
Blush Pineapple Ice Tray $12
Total Value: $55

3. Eyeko Double Act Shadow Stick in Cookies & Cream $25
Barefoot Scientist Pedicure File $15
Aria Beauty Makeup Swabs $15
Total Value: $55

I feel the exact same way. Do you think this can be added as an add-on? Only want swabs and lip mask period.
Was so excited to hear we could pick all categories as an annual subscriber. Pretty bummed with selections

There’s speculation that in Category 6 they’ve included a large number of “throwback” items to make it possible for them to roll out full customization earlier than originally planned. I’d imagine that future boxes won’t have so many repeats!

I think the Ouai will. Its a hugely popular brand, pricy and good hair stuff is not as prevalent in beauty boxes so there will more than likely a big demand for it. I’m on my first annual and it will definitely be my choice.

The Supergoop is a popular pricy brand too so I’m sure anyone wanting good spf for the summer will choose it.

There’s no telling how much stock FFF has of any item, regardless of demand. Last season a bunch of the items were out of stock for late seasonal subs (like the duffle bag and UV phone sanitizer) only to mysteriously come back in stock a month later. They had a very limited stock of the Mac lipsticks, but supposedly held some back for seasonal. You just never know. Usually if you sign up for seasonal right away, you have choice of everything, it’s a very rare occurrence that you don’t (I remember some wooden coasters that everyone went bonkers for that sold out quickly a couple of years ago and the West Elm bowls when FFF did a throwback, that’s about it)

Last season, the add ons for categories 1-3 were $15.

But for sunscreen, my husband pays at minimum $12, and there definitely is a difference between the nicer kinds he gets and the drugstore stuff I used to grab. So I like it when sub boxes include fancy sun screens and might grab this even for an extra $15 unless it ends up being my choice item.

It’s not a deal if you don’t need it

That sunscreen doesn’t work for me. My suggestion is, if you happen to have some issues with silicones and/or one of the active components of the sunscreen (i.e. I read that it might not be the best choice for some people with rosacea), I’d pick something else. I think often times people are very enthusiastic about something working great for them and create a hype that sets expectations high for me, but I often end up disappointed when I follow these hypes. Regardless, If your skin has none of the problems above, you don’t mind chemical sunscreens, enjoy something that feels like a silicone primer on your skin, and if your other sunscreens are not about to expire soon, maybe it’s worth to try it. If you are really overloaded with sunscreens, not easily subjected to FOMO, and you like something else in that category, then I’d pick that something else.

It depends. If you’re not picky about your sunscreen, I doubt it matters much. But many people have a hard time finding a sunscreen they like and this one usually works for them.

Agree w other comment. Diff > Nectar every time. Heck, I’ll send you the Nectar glasses I got last year… they sit here, unused.

I purchased a pair of Nectar blue light glasses in a fabfitfun edit sale about a year ago and they are just ok. I don’t think they’re in the same category as diff. I also don’t think they do quite as good a job at blue light blocking or reducing eye strain.

Like somebody else pointed out, the Murad isn’a moisturizer exactly. However, I am obsessed with it! I don’t think it really has long-term benefits but it’s incredible how much of a difference it makes within half an hour on fine lines and wrinkles. I was truly amazed the first time I used it. Since I am in my 30s, I also tested it on my mom in her 60s and she was a fan too! We both have prominent forehead headlines and it reduced them for the day by like 50%.

My understanding is that collagen molecules are too large to penetrate the skin, so collagen as a specific ingredient isn’t going to have benefits in a topically applied product. But in general that product is well-reviewed, so I’d look at whether the other ingredients in both products tend to work with you! 🙂

I’m 57 and also will be happily getting the Murad collagen, it’s an HG product for me and one of the few that IMHO really works for older skin. I like the throwbacks, I will take all the unhide throws and Murad collagen I can get!

The Murad is my go to moisturizer. I’ll happily be getting it for the 3rd time.

I have both. I’d go with the OLEHENRIKSEN PHAT Glow Facial. My skin always looks so much better after using it.

I have the mask and it literally does nothing for my skin even though it has great reviews. I would go with the moisturizer.

Cat 1 $15
Cat 2 $15
Cat 3 $10
Cat 4 $10
Cat 5 $7
Cat 6 $10

So there’s no way a seasonal subscriber could get the last four products listed like the Ole Henrichsen?

I know this might be a dumb question but I was wondering if there’s any chance the LashesMD Conditioner would be in a seasonal box or just 100% exclusive for annual members?

Thank You Estalyn!

If you look at some of the FFF pictures for the bands, the coupon code for the subscription is on the photos. Just write it down and use it. You might need a VPN to gain access, but if I can supposedly use it from Bahrain, then they aren’t restricting based on location. They are woefully inept when it comes to understanding anything international. Example – I live in Bahrain and have an FPO (military) address. I was able to get the planter and it is a 110-240 volt item. I have plugged in and it’s working here. They also sent the seeds, which they said they wouldn’t do. Our only real restrictions are – drugs (nothing with CBD), pork, porn, and pearls. Obvioulsy USPS aerosols and hazardous items. However, FFF inconsistently says we can’t have things because they can’t ship to us. They are very random in their rules. There was no reason the planter couldn’t ship and there is no reason the codes won’t work in the UK if they work from the Middle East (except maybe that I have a US credit card number and technically a US address to register the billing to).
