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.

Hooray! Post van has been with my box.

Mine arrived today and it is a lovely box. I especially like the 4th item (which I realise doesn’t help as it depends on how you number the items, but hopefully it is obvious)

Mine has arrived. It's my least favourite box. The value is there, it's just not exciting to me.

Got mine and I love it!

I'm not over excited by it either @Housewife2010

Is anyone still waiting?

Me - I’m away, so wouldn’t get mine until Tuesday at the earliest, but I know what’s in it so I’m happy for it to be discussed!!

Nothing arrived for me nor the gift subscription I bought for a friend... I guess I won't get it until Tuesday now as they are sent Royal Mail, no?

Got mine - very happy, love the range and looking forward to using them.

Got home last night and my box had arrived (no warning or notification!).
I’m not that happy with it this month. I’m sure everything is nice enough but it’s not really for me.
Trying to decide whether to stick with it for June.

I'm also not excited by it. They've sent worse but I'm still a bit where's the innovation???

Really regretting paying for an annual subscription as I would have cancelled by now if I was monthly.

I'll be in touch when I get home in case anything has arrived... hoping for safe and useful 😀

Nothing yet arrived 😮 but I've been on Vinted and can guess one of the products (which is going to look odd for the one off gift subscription I gave to someone I don't know that well!

What do people think of the lip balm that came 3-4 boxes ago? I'm finding it very firm compared to vaseline.

@Cyclingmummy1 once you get into it it's very moisturising and you don't need much, also it's not greasy.

My DH has just discovered my box behind the bins - it was already a bit damp because it had a Royal Mail bag on it with an apology. It could have been there all week! And there's someone here 100% of the time.
I think this is a good box in terms of trying all the products together. When there was a sample of the shampoo, it was a bit useless.

Pleased it's turned up @SmithfamilyRobinson

I'm not overly excited with shampoo. I have very coloured hair so use purple shampoo. I'm keen to try the oil; I'll put it on as soon as I've rinsed my hair. The comb, my mum would have loved!

Yes @Cyclingmummy1 I use purple shampoo too but I am up for a change. And it makes sense to try the products together.

I like the box being 'themed' - it's nice having a full hair routine to try. I've got a full size of the conditioner already, but was keen to try the shampoo more fully, and the oil.

Having tried the oil I found it very effective but was too liberal - my hair felt amazing but was greasier than I'd like. I used just a drop the next wash and that was perfect.

Are we all getting excited for the June box? Last month they started delivering the boxes from the 4th.

I’ve decided to do this month’s but I’m honestly feeling a bit put out - everything I’ve had so far (3 months worth) is available to buy on their website almost straight away (apart from the reformulated shampoo/conditioner?). I also didn’t feel that last month’s was great value for money now you can buy the hair treatment and comb for £28.
I keep holding out for body/fragrance/bath/home items…maybe this sub is just too risky for me!!

I hope there's a proper innovation this month. A hand wash, body wash or body lotion would be brilliant. I loved the room spray, but it's not something you need every month.

Same for me. I want some innovation!!! And no sodding seaweed tea. 😜

Haeckels did a great body lotion collaboration with Browns (trendy fashion store) that was amazing. I still have some left as I've been hoarding it in the hope they re-release. Sadly this was before they started doing subscriptions so I suspect it was a genuine one-off and will never reappear.

They’ve posted an update in the sub spoilers part of their Discord. I’m being careful what I say for fear of saying the wrong thing but boxes start going out tomorrow. There was a bit of a blip with an item and they’ve had to delay it til next month. I’m a little confused about which of the hints we’re getting this month and which are delayed to next month though!
I also don’t understand discord but if you follow the ‘discord’ link at the end of their emails it takes you to it (had to download it)!

*edit - regardless it sounds v interesting for the next two months!

I'll always take it off you 😆
