    Thanks for the welcome!!

    I did snap my SSB earlier (but in the box). I can share if nobody minds seeing the contents so soon?


    We did try to address the spoiler problem but decided that personal responsibilty was probaby the best way forward.

    So if you haven't received your box yet AVOID THIS THREAD :rotfl:

    Otherwise we'll spend ages finding out who has and hasn't had their boxes delivered etc. Plus, it's always good to know what non-subscribers are missing out on!

    I'm very jealous of the Ininka Lip Whip in SSB so might see if anyone is swapping on the FB Beauty Box swaps group page.

    SSB May Box - SPOILER ALERT!!!

    I also got the apricot Inika lip whip. The Natio soap is white lotus. Sorry it's a bit blurry - I snapped it at work & didn't want my colleagues to see me photographing my new toys :rotfl:

    Hello all and new recruits.

    Got my SheSaid today I got the same as sawan82, I was pretty pleased with it actually, I liked the lashes and the perfume, nice to have a rollerball for the handbag. The soap looks nice and a good size but I have about a million to get through.

    There was a mix up with my Glossybox this month and I actually got 2, was going to return one but they are so different I didn't really need to! They don't seem to listen to all the people who complain about the inconsistency.

    I would like to see a bit more haircare in the boxes though, and maybe more day to day items like shower gels. I have cancelled my shesaid so now just have Amarya and Glossybox, the latest in beauty ones look like really good value so I might try them. Have tried all others except Joliebox - but they don't seem to have any good introductory offers.

    have now put latest two boxes in the cupboard,having taken out stuff I want to use soon(am intrigued by the dry conditioner as sounds very useful for my dry curly hair)lippy/nail polish go into another bag and have put all items into the SSB box as it is bigger,now have several boxes for gifts:)(using stuff from boxes i will not use)
    did try the SSB ?body regenerating/renewing comfort cream?...sorry forgot proper name and now thrown away,put it on lats night before bed then lay there with skin stinging:eek::eek::eek::eek:
    get annoyed with SSB esp as some of the skincare prices are incredible!!!but do like the fact I can review stuff to get points,only thing is my 3 months sub now finished so can't review any more unless I re sub:(.....really should not do so as loads of stuff in the stash inc 4 lots of Liz Earle cleanse/polish from boxes and mag freebies!

    Are you on the Liz Earle website mailing list? It's worth it, they send out good sized samples for free ever now and then. Plus I got a bag of 5 large samples for referring a friend.

    (They also sent me a perfume sample when I emailed and asked for one, it's a great brand for giving out samples.)

    Whilst looking for info on the "Simply Argan" brand (the argan oil that came with last month's Amarya box) I found out that they are currently selling oil for pretty much half price on their website. CLICK here for site

    So if you were tempted to buy any, it might be worth doing some price comparisons

    Simply Argan on Amarya's site is £21 with free p&p
    but on the Simply Argan site it is currently £12 + £2.99 p&p = £14.99

    p&p is £2.99 no matter how many bottles you buy (and if you buy 10 bottles it works out at £9.80 per bottle :eek:) - is it too early to stock up on Xmas pressies? :rotfl::rotfl:

    Thanks for that pb. :) I'm more than 1/2 way through the Argan oil received in my Amarya box, so will be ordering more. It really is helping my scar. A good find. :j

    I've given out this months code, but am wondering if it is indeed just a one-off, or usable by many. I've just pm'd who I've given the code to see if its been used yet, so just waiting for a reply.

    If so I'll let people know, to see if it works again.
