Never got a box from LMB. I registered but never subscribed. Their choice never looked good, and some of the items looked cheapish, I don't think much has changed in a way?

Got my memebox yesterday! Still not too sure if I'll use the items, but I'll give them a go. I like them better now they are actually in front of me and I can have a good look at them. The spray looks interesting, I'm a fan of sprays. I wonder if it actually does do your skin good and make a difference? We'll see! I out it on last night after cleansing and before moisturiser.

ETA: The value of the meme boxes is really good though. Impressed with the price and the high quality of products you get.

Which memebox did you get?? Memebox sesms to inflate a bit the prices, but still great value in my opinion. e.g. I found the boscians creams for $8.99 and not $24 (as written on their card)

Yesterday night it was written in LMB webpage something like this: we give you each month 6 points and you can spend them as you want and add more items in your box. I got the feeling that they will have a list of products, each one worth a different number of points. So we can choose our own box and we can add more samples (but then we will pay the difference).

I just read some comments on facebook. People were saying that the previous boxes were worth 8-10 points but now they give only 6 and the price increased.

Did anyone manage to connect and see prices yesterday?

I got the lucky #9 box.

Thanks for explaining the LMB concept, because I really wasn't sure how it worked. I think I'll wait and see how it goes first before I subscribe. I think I've signed up to too many boxes lately! :rotfl:

Pink Parcel has a September box spoiler! The beauty products (no counting tampons, tea and chocolate) are worth ~£20! And I like them! Looking forward for my box!

Sounds good! I was impressed with my first Pink Parcel!

The Birchbox spoiler has been released too. What do people think of it?

It looks good! Although there area always products we may receive that are not in the spoiler image... I love KORRES! I would love to try the benefit eye cream! But I have already the skin&co serum from another box. I don't want the beautyblender, it looks like it is a leftover from the previous boxes... Face and body scrub I don't mind (what is the brand?) And what is the Agave thing?

What do you think of the box?

I am curious to find out about the collaboration of glossybox and karen millen! I love karen millen! I wish I could afford these clothes!

BB looks pretty good, i wouldn't mine another blender my dog pinched mine and tore it!

GB looks decent, the UK boss mentioned in an interview a Harvey Nichols box will be appearing at some point, the last box from them made me really change my mind about them as i was really pleased.

Eagerly awaiting the My Little box though as the past boxes look amazing

I like the BB spoiler. Some are brands I don't know so that's always good IMO. I like to try new brands

I looked at the spoiler too, I think it looks like quite good.. I picked the lip laquer and I hope I get the
beauty blender

I managed to use the LMB page. You need to sign up again. The page still doesn't work properly. Unless someone can explain me what fake eyelashes sample is! It looks like it's easy to trick people in making boxes of very low value. They have a lot of cheap products and some cheap ones even cost 2 credits. Once you use the 6 credits you can start shopping for extra samples and you can see the prices of travel and full size products.

If you want to have a look, you can get a subscription to view the boutique without being charged/having to enter bank details. You will be charged only at check out. (but don't buy anything until they finish the page!).

At the moment, it looks to me more like a one every now and then box rather than a subscription box. What do you think?
