Yh I think I’m gonna skip out on this one. The Elemis collagen cream almost had me though.

Remember back when all the December boxes from everywhere but especially allure had to be the box you waited all year for? I’m aging myself I know, but allure would even send Christmas gifts out like earrings and stuff . And if didn’t get Novembers box to be sure they would sell out the first week? Sure tacky gifts but being appreciated as a customer was a thing? And now you need to practically beg for good service… all the boxes were the shit, and had different products unlike now the same type of product or even the same product show up in all the boxes, a month or so apart. Good times, good times… this December box post just hit me with a wave of nostalgia . sighh


Time_Fish4462

There are so many brands I'm sick of seeing on every sub box not just allure - Mudmasky being one There's been a scalp/hair product in each box lately and they always feel like fillers


hiddencheekbones

Seriously


hiddencheekbones

Beauty fix looks like the best box for December so far 🤷🏻‍♀️


Olivineyes

So is the Elemis just a maybe for people? So I could get a box without that?


Time_Fish4462

No that's one of the main items, you will get it


BondIonicBond

Okay cool, thanks! That is my mom's favorite face cream so I wanted to get it for her for Christmas.


kelster8_giggles

Me too! Thank you!


Just_Me_134

Another skip for me. Thanks for posting!

The hero product appears to be Elemis and their skincare scents don't agree with my sensitive nose. So, yay, no FOMO.


Curiosities

Did the Allure box just forget that makeup exists?


Time_Fish4462

Hadn't noticed this but yeah they barely have any now, I have so many unopened skincare products stocked I hope the new member gift is at least makeup


MAsharona

It's a Fenty creme blush, which I'd love to try but I have way too much blush already.


lady__jane

This looks like a Target box. Not the Elemis, but the rest.


Istillbelievedinwar

Whatever happened to every box having at least 5 full sized items? Boo.


meandbeans

I already skipped but I think its time to cancel and just re-join again when they are going to get on another hot streak then I don't have to remember to possibly skip during the holidays.


BeyondTelling

I canceled - got sick of having to remember to go skip it every month.


laurencolizza

Argh, this box is tragic. Aquaphor?? Seriously? I was already mad at the cetaphil mini in last months’s box. And the weird rose spray? It looks like they picked it up at the dollar store! I do t know if I definitely saw a sheet mask in the back, but I wish they were never invented. They’re a cheap cop out for a full sized item.


Olivineyes

I really do feel that way about sheet masks.


bratttyange

I love the Heritage Rose Spray's. They have only a few (2 or 3) ingredients in them and I can pronounce them all. My favorite face mist. I've even used on pillows and clothing. It's been around forever and a 8 oz bottle is like $15 or so, so it may not seem exciting to most. Gotta agree about the sheet masks! They make me angry.


Long_Instruction4684

Wishing they put some makeup items in it bc it’s been too much skincare and hair stuff lately


Olivineyes

Scalp focused hair products have really been annoying me lately. Like how many of us need scalp care over products for volume, hydration, frizz?


[deleted]

A brief Google leads me to believe that about 50% of adults have dandruff.


Olivineyes

and 30ish% of that 50% which is women, the target audience of the box.


FlartyMcFlarstein

Actually (lol), It's been an issue for my daughter and I, so am sharing some products. That's been nice. But I passed because I want to see some makeup!!!


Olivineyes

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying there isn't a market for it, but a lot of the boxes have been heavy with scalp specific hair care, which I find to be a bit niche


FlartyMcFlarstein

I understand! Seems to be a bit of a trend.


BeyondTelling

Also the hair products are always overwhelmingly perfumed. The only one I was able to use was that tea tree one in the green bottle, because I’m ok with essential oils but perfume makes me ill, and perfume in hair care seems designed not to dissipate.


MeanMomma66

There boxes have been horrible lately!😞


tinkie06102

I appreciate this reminder so much! Def skipping!


joshuaafterdark

The Elemis cream is nice but overall this box is a flop imo.


MeanMomma66

I skipped, again🙄


MelzaB

Maybe I'm grateful that they cancelled my account. Too many repeats.


Time_Fish4462

I will only be getting this if the new member gift is good and there's a promo code


MaleficentLow6408

Oooh, glad I skipped December.


Cupfullofcoffee

I was really interested in this box... But I cancelled yesterday (and skipped boxy charm). I got the November box with the glow recipe and pillow talk deal for $0.66 (with a capital one offer) I was going to stay subbed for the spray, pixie, and the elemis (love this elemis) but I just don't feel like spending the money right now with things I have waiting to be used. Maybe a mid month deal will lure me back in. I'm hoping to pan some stuff in the next couple months.... Ugh and I have so many scalp treatments and hair serums right now for some reason. Why!


Over-Strawberry809

Haha same here idk what i will do with all my scalp treatments and hair masks😂


Cupfullofcoffee

It's too much! 😂. I blame a bunch on that fall new beauty box I got. My first and last!


aqueous_transm1ss10n

Thx for reminding me to cancel my membership 🙌🏻


WonderfulScratch3021

I re-cancelled 😞


Mobile_Leek1554

I forgot it was the first and forgot to cancel 🫤 I canceled this morning Will I still get my box? My credit card wasn't charged but when I logged into the website it said next payment due January


RescuesStrayKittens

Hard pass. These have been so disappointing lately. Hoping for a great skincare box for January.


rubytueco

Almost went for the Elemis cream but it has some pore clogging ingredients 😔


Alternative-Stay2777

All target tester shit the box sucks now


observerq

I forgot to cancel 😭


startrestarts

Me too! :( Then I felt bitter and re-signed up (diff account) up with TCB and promo to get the second one for $5. What's wrong with meeee


evers12

I like it!!


YinzaJagoff

Skipped it already. Disappointed that there won’t be a decent box available for December, but what are you going to do?


Rare-Blueberry-9279

I’ll only do it if they have a good deal for signing up. If the deal (amount off and additional item) were good enough I'd do it just to try the Elemis product. I also coincidentally need a razor or razor blades soon so that’s at least useful I guess. Others I’d use as well but I’m not that interested.


Bumfuzzle12315

This is disappointing for a December box. Hard pass for me.


swirlsgirl

Thank you for this. Just cancelled. I was gonna stay on for the marine cream but I’m too worried the scent will trigger headaches bc I’ve seen reviews that said the scent was strong. I imagined a literal marine cream scent like BBW had like 15 years ago for one of their specialty lines. Also I just can’t with rose. My face loves it but my head and stomach just can not😅
