Having been hit with some pretty significant "life" curve balls, I was really feeling the need to just send myself a gift in the mail. Twenty eight years of marriage, couple of kids, and the spontaneous gift giving... waned. I just wanted that Christmasy feeling, and I wanted something that was just for me. I've no real interest in shopping or researching the latest in skincare, but I've always loved beauty products and loved using them! FabfitFun is Fantastic! I'm having so much fun. I've discovered so many new products that are now a part of my routine. And not just beauty products either... Tagalong travel inserts, the BEST, my French Press (best coffee ever!), the Digestive Advantage chocolate probiotic? LIFE CHANGING, I could rattle on forever (my wireless headphones! And sleep mask!). My skin is transformed as well, discovering facial oils, serums, (the back scrubber!), eye creams, face washes, sunscreens... seriously! What I've amassed between my subscription and the TRULY AWESOME edit sales and add-ons! Fantastic products that I would stand behind. Everything is full-size and you get so much quality for the money. Whatever I cannot use (which is very little), I have been very happy to give as gifts. I'm 56 in November 2018 and have a daughter, several young nieces, and am "auntie" to many young women... I love that I'm able to procure for them really amazing make-up products at these prices. I do prefer the subscription, again as a more "mature" member, I like having the bit of control over my box (I'm still totally surprised when it comes though!). So far I've received 5 seasonal boxes, an Editor box, and have purchased many, many extras through add-on sales and edit sales. So far every box has been a hit, no redundancy, continued high quality. I will absolutely stick with FFF... it's really been super fun, especially now that some of my friends have become FFF-philes too!

Just a warning to anyone placing a large order... I ordered over $700 worth of add ons last box. Everything was sent in a box with no packing material. This is the second time this happened. Because everything was thrown in one large box, many items were damaged in shipping or the packaging was damaged. Over $550 in items damaged. I buy all these as gifts for the holidays so items with bent and smashed boxes are not acceptable. I have spent hours on the phone with customer service and sent many emails with pictures and info. At the end, they refuse to replace the items, will not offer a refund, and will not let me send them back. They only offered a $20 credit towards my next add on purchase. They said to talk to my local post office since this happened twice. I told them I wasn't suprised things were damaged since they shipped everything in one box with no bubble wrap, packing materials or any kind of wrapping. After hours of trying to work this out, I was told a $20 credit was all they are willing to do. I just filed a dispute with my credit card company. Just wanted to warn anyone placing a huge order that this happened. Best of luck.

FabFitFun was the very first sub box I started receiving then it went to 2 and from there 10. I had a problem. Lol Now I am down to 4 again and I'm going to cancel all except FFF I will continue to vet this box as long as I have the extra money to spend. This is the best box. You get awesome things you would never find anywhere else. I get excited and look forward to this every season. It's like Christmas when I get the box I can't wait to open my package to see what I got. I love this sub box and love the variety that you get.

FabFitFun offered no other replacement item - all they would offer me as a replacement was another one of these cheaply made french presses. HORRIBLE QUALITY - the bottom gave out after 3 uses and made a huge mess of my kitchen. The CYCLO headphones I received were also pretty cheaply made, I guess you get what you pay for. DON"T CHOOSE the french press if you decide to purchase the box anyways. I took the replacement, however I won't be using it. I then cancelled my memerbership. Not worth it. I could (and will) get a french press at Marshalls of much better quality for $14.

I've received the Spring, Summer and Fall 2018 boxes and originally I was so excited! The Spring box had a lot of fun, new items that I loved, Summer had some good stuff as well but Fall 2018... it was completely disappointing. There was nothing that I was really excited about nor would even purchase again. The purse is terrible and there was NOTHING in the box that made me want to recommend it to friends.

Originally my plan was to get an annual subscription for Christmas but after the last two boxed, I'm going to give one more box a try (winter) and if I still come away feeling meh, I'm canceling.

Shipping is also a huge issue, takes FOREVER, and 2 out of my 3 boxes arrived damaged. This company has so much potential, they just need to be careful who they align themselves with and the companies they promote.

It's so exciting to get a new box that's curated for the season!
Feedback:
1. Waiting for my box to come sometimes after my friends have already had theirs for weeks kind of sucks. I wish we could get them around the same time to share the excitement and discuss.
2. Full size items are awesome. Sometimes. There have been several times I would have liked a smaller version of some items. When it comes to hair care, etc. sometimes a smaller version (maybe 3oz instead of 6+) would be better then you can order a larger size. I end up giving lots of those to friends/family
3. Add-ons and sales- these have been fantastic for me! I have found lots of cool stuff to share with friends at a great price.
4. FFFTV and app- I NEVER use these. The app has terrible reviews and I just don't care about the content on the tv.

Honestly, I started last year because of my daughter & LOVED the Fall and Winter boxes. Was super excited, and we'd "unbox" together, always getting add-ons so it'd ship sooner. I recommended it to three other friends who also signed up & was totally "all-in."

Spring's box was a train wreck, and Summer wasn't much better. So I kept thinking, "Hang on to Fall--it was the best" but I'm kind of disappointed after receiving it. There really wasn't something FUN and new that I was excited to try, and my daughter's box was damaged en route. She was told they'd need 2-4 weeks to PROCESS a new box before it could be sent out, which is absolutely ridiculous.

I'm glad I haven't signed up for an annual subscription, because I'm definitely on the verge of cancelling. Which is sad, because I was so excited in the beginning. And based on the surveys I've been getting for next Spring & Summer possibilities, it's not looking any better...
