Haeckels subscription box

[Cyclingmummy1]

No spoilers please, but had anyone had their August box yet? Last month I received it on July 1st but I've not even had a dispatch email yet.

I only have the boxes @HundredMilesAnHour but have had them since you recommended them on box 3, and I feel disgruntled so I totally get why you are so annoyed. I do understand their small business, do it ourselves, ethos but it's annoying that 6 months out of 7, other people have had their boxes 2 or 3 days before mine is even dispatched. Besides anything else, are the golden tickets/free gifts equally distributed, or are they in the early batches?

It's being packed!

Both my boxes are allegedly arriving today - I say allegedly as my local DPD person can be a bit erratic. Not helped by where I live being the target of repeated break-ins to our parcel room recently so there's an element of Russian roulette involved in whether you actually get a delivery or not. 😬

Mine has arrived, but we're at my dad's.

Isianyone except @HundredMilesAnHour still waiting?

Mine arrived today. Very pleased with it. The repeat is something I'd have repurchased anyway.

@SmithfamilyRobinson the AHA toner smells foul. Like bad feet.

@Cyclingmummy1 Mine are supposedly due in approx 15 mins. I'm lurking and waiting to intercept DPD. There will be hell to pay if they don't turn up. 😂

Mine have arrived and I'm happy (for once 😂)

No moaning from me until next month now.

I'm really pleased with this month's selection.

Is the discussion open? Is anyone still waiting?

Mine arrived this morning. I'm happy with the contents but not impressed that it's so late again.

Still waiting for mine but I saw spoilers on someone's Instagram a couple of days ago so feel free to discuss!

Mine is due on Monday. Please can you wait til I have it.
It's my 3rd box. My first was very fast.

@Housewife2010 that's very late! We can wait until Monday 😃

@Cyclingmummy1
Thank you

Anyone else still waiting?

Mine has just been delivered. It's my 3rd box and I'm delighted with it. Are we safe to discuss it now?

If you could proceed... I am assuming that the subscription renews this week...?

Right, here goes.

SPOILER

The repeat was eco hand balm, which is OK. I'll finish the previous pot this week and to be honest, I'm more excited about putting it in the compost bin to see what happens than I am about the contents 😆

I needed a serum so pleased with that, and I liked the large sample we had a few months ago.

I've put the bodywash in my stash, I've 2-3 weeks worth left in my current bottle then will put this into the bottle as I prefer a pump dispenser to a screw top in the shower.

Value for money is excellent in this box.

Ah, apart from the hand balm which I regifted last time, that sounds like a good box!

I love the hand balm so am delighted. I'd have repurchased when I finished the original one - i really enjoy the smell and find it sinks in well.

I have two serums to use up so will have to wait to get started on this one, but will be pleased to try it.

The shower gel smells great and looks nice in my bathroom. Those are my only two metrics for shower gel!

I'm really happy with the bodywash as collaboration products that aren't readily available are exactly why I signed up.

I use the hand cream anyway (despite hating the pot and wishing they still made it in a tube) but I'm not a serum lover so I'll probably give that away to a friend.

The body wash smells amazing! I think I’ll transfer it to a (repurposed) plastic pump bottle though as I live in fear of smashing it in the shower.

Also very happy to have the hyaluronic acid serum and the hand balm, both will be used. I am surprised by the repeat though given how big their range is.

@Lotsofpots my son commented on the lovely smell earlier - it was the hand balm.

Is anyone signing up for the annual subscription???

I don't know, it's a massive saving, but also a big initial outlay.

I bit the bullet and cancelled my current subscription and signed up for the annual one. I think that means I may end up with 2 boxes for Feb - one from my old monthly subscription (since they debited me mid-Jan) and one from this new annual one. Who knows? They'll probably both be sent out last anyway @Cyclingmummy1 😫😂

That was exactly my thoughts @HundredMilesAnHour , double order and still last 😆 🤣 😂
