    [Weekly thread] Sunday Excitement - What are you looking forward to this week?

    It can be anything you're excited for, not just beauty boxes. Writing the names of the sub box in **bold** is nice, to make it easier for people skimming the thread to pick out the names.

    Eyeko Waterproof Mascaras

    I have two unopened from beauty boxes- one is Sport Waterproof and the other is Yoga Waterproof. Anyone familiar with either of these? Going on a cruise in June and want to bring the better version.

    What's a good substitute to the discontinued Sephora play box?

    It was the perfect mix of trying out new skincare, makeup, and hair care sample items at an affordable price. RIP Sephora play box

    May 2024 BeautyFix Box

    https://preview.redd.it/o1uxg2doz9yc1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=534777f9522157a4fb2104787d12aa11c5ff9001

    • One Love Organics Botanical C Body Oil 120 mL
    • MDSolarSciences Protect and Nourish Mineral Creme Sunscreen (SPF 50) 50 mL
    • Verso Clarifying Gel with Retinol 8 30 mL
    • First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub 1 oz.
    • SkinSeuticals C E Ferulic 4 mL
    • Vichy Laboratories Liftactiv Supreme H. A. Serum 10 mL

    So far the only thing I've tried is the body oil, which I really like. I was happy to see two full size products, the body oil which retails for $58 and the sunscreen which goes for $32. Overall, I think this is a good box and I will definitely use everything in it.

    Question about CT Bronzer from April Allure Box

    I used this bronzer pretty much daily since I received it and I really liked it.

    However last weekend when I went to use it I found that it applied very patchy, and when I touched the product itself it seemed like it had become more of a cream than a powder. Is this normal, or something anyone else has experienced?

    It was kept on my vanity in the bedroom, alongside a number of other powder products which are all older and none of which are having a similar issue.

    Chic Beauty Box

    I ordered this box for the first time about a month ago and have never heard anything since. I checked my credit card statement and it went through. Does it really take so long to get a tracking number?

    Allie Beauty Box April

    I am a first time Allure subscriber - I pulled the trigger because the Winners box had a ton of stuff I already use and I liked several things in the April box.

    I am SUPER happy with the Winners box - as someone building their skincare collection, this was perfect.

    I am very sad with the April regular box - I got a medium CT bronzer that is just too warm for my skin ( I’m fair olive ), and they can’t send a replacement fair because it is sold out. I was told to buy one if they came back to the store. :(

    So, if you’re fair olive - the CT Medium bronzer will pull orange. ( anyone want to swap?)

    Also, I usually LOVE the Josie perfumes, but the one in the box is giving me a migraine. Turns out, coconut is not my friend.
