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.

Mine has arrived too.

Cyclingmummy1 · 09/02/2024 17:20

For mine but not opened it.

Opened now. Anyone else waiting?

Can we talk about it now?!

I think so!! 😂

Cyclingmummy1 · 14/02/2024 07:09

Completely daft, but I was disappointed with the size of the box compared to the products. I've not opened anything yet as I'm in the middle of several lip balms and am more a perfume fan. The toner has gone in my toilet bag for holidays.

Yes, playing hunt the product and/or 'lucky dip'. I am using the lip balm, I don't usually like the solid pot style (not very hygienic...?), but happy with it. Wasn't so keen on the fragrance - that's quite a personal choice.
The toner is nice - has delicate rose fragrance so must be a reformulation (is it the Spiraglow one? That was mushroomy - versus rank socks one...?)
Another mention if anyone wants to swop facial oil or serum or moisturiser for the Spiraglow cleanser in an earlier box - DM me.

I'm really happy with the box. I love the scent. I always love lip balms. The toner is more of an essence and I like it. I think it's my 4th box. My first was the coffee one. I really like last month's shower gel & hand cream.

I’ve just signed up as a bit fed up with the beauty drop! Will give this month’s a go and see what I think……always a gamble 😂

Cyclingmummy1 · 27/02/2024 20:34

Hope it's a good one @Specialkp

I've knocked over my bottle of skin oil this evening. Hopefully it'll be a repeat soon.

Specialkp · 04/03/2024 13:12

I hope it’s sent out soon! I know I shouldn’t get impatient, but am excited for my first box 🤗

Cyclingmummy1 · 04/03/2024 22:26

So do I @Specialkp

What would people like?

I liked the toner sample last month so that would be a hit. And maybe body lotion.

I really like the marine face cream, you don't need very much at all!

OP posts:
SmithfamilyRobinson · 05/03/2024 09:56

I am with you @Cyclingmummy1 with body lotion.
Really like the marine oil, any of the moisturisers.
I am in Margate in a few weekend's time so will use 15% discount to purchase what we don't get.
I'd love the toner, but have any of the samples 'converted' to a full size product in the subscription box...?

Specialkp · 05/03/2024 10:54

Soooo, when I was looking online to find out last month’s contents, I found something that has now updated with this month’s.
I know you don’t discuss anything until everyone has received it, so I’ll leave the chat til everyone has got it in case I inadvertently spoil it (like I have for myself 😂)
Still no dispatch email 😔

SmithfamilyRobinson · 05/03/2024 11:05

@Specialkp you tease!

Specialkp · 05/03/2024 11:06

Sorry! 😬😂

nicnicspicnic · 05/03/2024 14:30

And I'm not going to look at Vinted as that spoilt it for me last month - you could work out what was in that box before you got it. I'd really like to try their cleansing balm next.

Housewife2010 · 06/03/2024 10:44

DPD have told me they're expecting my box, so hopefully it'll arrive by Friday.

Cyclingmummy1 · 06/03/2024 19:59

I have a DPD notification! My name has finally made it to the top of the list 🙌

Wow congratulations @Cyclingmummy1 !! You made the big time. 😁

(I haven't - no email for me)

SmithfamilyRobinson · 06/03/2024 20:39

I received a notification but no delivery date today.

rougechaotic · 06/03/2024 22:39

no email yet for me and I'm away from tomorrow so guess mine will arrive while I'm away! They must have mixed up the order of delivery this time as I've always been early (I think there were understandably quite a few complaints!)

Housewife2010 · 06/03/2024 23:10

Mine is being delivered tomorrow. I think I was one of the last last time.

Cyclingmummy1 · 07/03/2024 06:36

Thanks @HundredMilesAnHour 😆

Housewife2010 · 07/03/2024 09:04

My box is due between 12:08 & 13:08 today!
