And you know what is funny? I was just in Walmart today… What did I see on the end cap? KAB cosmetics.. No joke I definitely never expected to see them get into Walmart but they certainly are and they have been in our boxes I know everyone did like the lip oil for the most part but they have never sent drugstore products before even though some of the stuff they send is not even worthy of the drugstore.

MSA, you have the wrong brush set shown. It’s the right brand, but Boxy’s picture on IG shows a different set…

Not to be dramatic, but if I get those awful brushes from Boxy again for the third time (yes third!!!)…I am going to mail them back to them with a picture of my middle finger included lol.

We have a winner for “Best Comment on MSA Ever”! Seriously, I did laugh out loud. I would pay to see them open that box!

Boxy’s business plan:
1. Combine with Ipsy.
2. Make everything cheap crap, but since we own them both it doesn’t matter. No competition.

I finally cancelled all my boxy subs. My last box there wasn’t one quality item in it!
What a relief. I kept it for the sales but those haven’t been exciting either. When I factor in the price for a box of crap then the add on prices weren’t that soecial. I switched to book subscriptions. Now to sort through all my product overload.

You know what though, I have been super happy with Ipsy lately. It seems that maybe they are letting Boxy go to crap so that everyone will flip over to the Ipsy premium subscriptions so they can discontinue Boxy. Plus Ipsy customer service is awesome and Boxy sucks.

I already have those brushes, meh. I like the colors though. I’m kinda tired of getting brush sets for Boxy. I’ve been with them for like 4 yrs and every other month, I get a brush set. How many brushes could one subscriber possibly need?? I’ve already gifted (given away) them to the point where the people I gift them to say, no, we don’t need anymore brushes. But to be fair, I have very little makeup wearers in my life.

Ugh….Boxy just seems to get worse and worse. Canceling is a definite.

I cancelled before I was billed for May. No FOMO here. I think it’s time to give Boxy a break. My last box was like someone swept the end cap of the clearance section at Marshalls into a shipping box.

So irritated. I cancelled in April, but somehow was reactivated and charged for May. These spoilers make me even more upset. Maybe I’ll luck out and they’ll fail to send my May box like in April, and will refund my money.

I received those brushes in base BC last year. I donated them.

I’ve gotten all of these in various boxes at one point or another except the Hot Toddy, which means that’s the one item that won’t be in my box.

I made my “test” on their website of what I would like to get in my box, I prefer skincare and body care things and I received only lipglosses and eyeshadows, so no worries, we are at the same boat and yes – we won’t get that hair spray, I know that for sure 😁😁😁

That’s a bummer! Just got these like a month or so ago! I totally agree about the “Walmart” box. I felt the same. The roller gloss and cheap high lighter looked more like drug store products.

Those brushes were in a box like…6 months ago or so. They look cute, but they’re not great…
