Glossybox and Carmne

Saorenza

What they always said to me when it was late was that their logistics provider advised them it could take 10 -12 days! This was after they had said it was supposed to take 5-7 and it had not arrived. The last time this happened I advised them to change their logistics provider!

I spent a good part of today cleaning my room and bathroom, and I actually have loads if toiletries, lotions and potions that I have to use up. I still haven't received the Harrods box, but even if I do, In going to cancel my subscription. It's not that I can't afford it, it's just a bit of a waste when if I save up for a few months I could get some really good stuff that I really want.

Getting the box in the post is fun and all, but really it's kinda pointless.

I completely agree, its fun for a while, but Im going to cancel aswell. no point, and the last one I got was aload of crap being honest, I did like the lip gloss though, but Im at the stage now where Im trying to get rid of all the stuff I have, over the year I go a nuts in boots when I get paid. Out of just boredom really.

No sign of mine again this month either although I did end up getting a free one last month as both eventually arrived!! Like the sound of shesaidbeauty one so might give that a go instead. I ordered 2 of the Harrodds boxes so would be funny if all 4 actually arrived.

I dont know if its just me being paranoid but I think its quite suss that they suddenly make a booboo with the harrods box.

Oversubscribed?

I thought it was suss that their customer service (which had been declining) fell apart just before it was announced they had taken over Carmine.

I received my Harrods box on time, but both my jan and feb box were a week or two late. Tbh I think they did make mistake with labelling the Harrods one as my name was missing and only received it because my full address was on it.

Thats what Im thinking as harrods is a big name, and some people got lancome in theirs:eek:

Caraville

got my Harrod's box this morning finally!

It's grand, got

Revive Creme Lustre, Bliss Body Butter, Vanitas Versace Perfume, Clarins Body Cream and Leighton Denny nail varnish

There were a few things I would have preferred that other people got but it was ok, nothing too exciting but as I said before, you're not going to get a whole lot from sample sizes anyway. Will be unsubscribing anyway, definitely have enough toiletries to keep me going for ages so couldn't be bothered collecting more stuff. Glad I gave it a go though!

Ginny

Finally got mine too Got

Fendi perfume, Ojon Hair repair, Burberry lipstick, Clarins Firming cream and the Erno Lazlo thingy I basically got this box :http://lucy-loops.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/harrods-glossybox-review.html

I got a good box, but it's still Meh!

Caraville yours sounds lovely! I've unsubscribed, thought mine was crap, I actually got TWO of the same cause of the post problem. So I've 2 horrible lipsticks, 2 horrible perfumes & crappy moisturiser samples that feel like wax on my face. I do love the Clarins body lotion but the tiny tubes won't last long if you use them all over & the Ojon stuff is nice too but I would have liked 2 different boxes. Oh well!

bobbygirl

Got exactly the same as you! One of them arrived yesterday but had ordered 2 so still no sign of that...

Same happened to me initially. I think the problem was that I put jubilee60 not JUBILEE60

Terri26

yes that was it!!!!!!1 copied and pasted and it worked then!

Ginny

Sorry girls I only saw this now!! Hope yis got it working!

gingernut125

has anyone who ordered the 6 month 'she said beauty' subscription with the jubilee code, got a June box yet?

Belle Morte

I got the Jubilee sub aswell gingernut125, no sign of the box yet, looking forward to it though

girl_friday

I dubbed with Jubilee code but no box yet... Got an email saying I'd get box in early June when I subbed but no dispatch email yet anyway...

gingernut125

I hope this isn't going to be like glossybox all over again

lubie76

Bit worrying alright especially when there appeared to no limit to amount of people availing of offer. Hopefully they haven't over subscribed.

Sugarbomb

I got my She Said box yesterday but I didn't use the Jubilee code.

Over The weekend, I got an emaid from their CEO saying that due to the Jubilee weekend, shipping to Ireland may be a bit later this month but mine came by post on Monday. My June box came by courier.

gingernut125

I just got an email saying they've been sent, hopefully this isn't glossybox all over again

Belle Morte

Just got the dispatch email here also, yay!

Terri26

hey gals, just wondering did any of you get the box who used the Jubilee code? I got a dispatched email on the 14th saying it could take up to 5 working days for Ireland but I still haven't received it.

gingernut125

I'm also still waiting and I got that email too

girl_friday

Same! :rolleyes:

Belle Morte

Same as well here

pushkii

I was just wondering how much these boxes are and whivh would ye recommend?

gingernut125

Belle Morte

glossybox is awful, slow service and too mainy perfume samples

Saorenza

Did you like what was in the box?

I just signed up to She Says - my first one is next month's box.

I wouldn't recommend Glossybox - awful customer service and 2 out of my 6 boxes went missing in transit.

gingernut125

it was grand, I liked my box, I just hope to not get too many perfume or fake eyelashes samples in the future!!

Dark Phoenix

Thanks guys don't worry I will stay well clear of glossy box have heard awful reviews. The she said box is tempting but like you I wouldn't like perfume samples I'm allergic to perfume!

Saorenza

I read on various blogs they have the fake eyelashes most boxes:eek:

Belle Morte

Still no sign of my June She Said Beauty box

pampootie

Nor mine-got the dispatch email on the 15th I think. Where is it!!!

Terri26

girls, just wonderin if ye got your June box as I got an email yesterday saying the July box was despatched but still no sign of my June box?
is there somewhere on the site you complain to?
