Sneak Peak at the Allure Summer 2014 Beauty Box
The Allure Beauty Boxes always contain TONS of full-size products. If you'd like to get an idea of what these boxes are like, check out this post about last summer's box. It was $39.99 + $10 shipping and to me, it was worth every penny (over $200 retail value). I don't know the price of this summer's box, but I'm guessing it will be similar to last summer's.
Again, SET YOUR REMINDERS NOW because this will go quickly.
Thanks again, Jennifer, for the awesome tip!
The price is $44.95 this year and i'm guessing with shipping it will be almost $60. I usually fall for stuff like this but that seems a big much!
ReplyDeleteThanks for confirming the price!
DeleteI think it really depends on how much you think you'll use the products--i don't see it as falling for anything since the retail value of these boxes is always insane in proportion to the price. I see lots of products here that I already love and use regularly, so I would totally pay that price. But again, if it's not a good fit for you, I completely understand that the price would seem steep! :)
Oh, it's totally a good fit for me lol and I know for a fact I'll be buying one, I was just being a whiner I guess haha. Besides, whatever I don't like can always go in my giveway/gift box!
DeleteI see the IT Cosmetics CC Cream, Tarte Camera Lashes, A Not your Mothers (I think the pink one) and many others. I've been wanting to try the CC Cream but it'd probably be in a Medium shade :/ I'll pass that off to my mother but I am tempted to buy it!
ReplyDeleteAwesome hope I get to purchase one!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I see the it cc cream in there which I'm currently obsessed with. So tempting
ReplyDeleteThese beauty boxes are particularly frustrating for me. I have a deep skin tone and natural black hair (very coiled and curly) so the BB and CC creams don't work for me and most of the hair products won't actually work for my hair texture.
ReplyDeleteI hear great things about that CC cream. It depends on the shade. If it works for me I would buy it!
ReplyDeleteOmg I just want the cc cream, what shade is the cc cream in the box?
ReplyDeletei love the it cosmetics cc cream in the pic and wore it all winter but i feel like the texture might be heavy for summer time
ReplyDeleteI have tried for a few years to get this and never have! Maybe this will be the year? *fingers crossed*
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder!
This looks great! Here's what I've figured out so far, from left to right, top to bottom:
ReplyDeleteSally Hansen Triple Shine nail polishes – clear/sparkle or Great White and Sea Through or Dive In shades
Oscar Blandi – either Dry Heat Protect or Pronto Dry Shampoo spray
Rimmel ScandalEyes Retro Glam mascara
One ‘n Only Argan Oil Cream-to-Serum Styler
Rusk Freezing spray hair spray
Cetaphil face cleansing wipes
Dove Purely Pampering body wash
IT Cosmetics CC cream - $38
Lip crayon – maybe Neutrogena Moisture Smooth color stick
Not Your Mother’s Intensive Care Unit renewal treatment
Aloxxi – either Firm Hold hairspray or Lightweight Sculpting Wax
BigSexyHair Get Layered hair spray
TanTowel self tanning towelette
Softsoap body wash (fragrance?)
Rembrandt Deeply Whitening toothpaste - $6.99 for 2.9oz tube at Drugstore.com
GK hair gel or ThermalStyleHer styling cream
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Face + Body stick sunscreen 70 SPF
Pureology Fresh Approach – either Dry Shampoo or Dry Condition
Tarte Lights Camera Lashes mascara - $20
I can't figure out what the pink and orange compact is on the lower left, or the white and orange bottle behind it, or the nail polish on the lower right, or the green shampoo/conditioner set on the lower right.
But this looks like a great deal and I'm going to jump on it next Tues!
Thanks for all the info! I hope you were able to get one....the page never loaded for me :(
DeleteThe link does not work.
ReplyDeleteSee my comment below.
DeleteUghhh... I've been trying to get the box for the past 15 mins and the page is blank :( Has anyone had any luck?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteSee my comment below :(
DeleteI have been trying since noon to load the page and it won't load!
ReplyDeletehow do i get this box? the link goes nowhere
ReplyDeletePlease see my comment below
DeleteSo, I guess they really did mean Eastern Standard and not Eastern Daylight Savings Time since it's 12:15 EDT (which would be 11:15 EST) in Atlanta and the website is still blank?
ReplyDeleteNope, it sold out instantly, apparently. See my comment below :(
DeleteHow are we to get this again? The link is not getting me anywhere...
ReplyDeleteTried 30 minutes before till 15 after and link NEVER Worked and they are sold out.
ReplyDeleteNever mind my previous comment. I just went to the main Allure website and, judging from the comments others have left, it looks like the darn thing sold out instantly this time. Oh well.
ReplyDeleteThe link never work was a waste of time. I wait for long time to order the box, I did one so bad.
ReplyDeleteNo one is getting in
ReplyDeleteHey everyone--apparently the box sold out instantly. For what it's worth, I tried the moment it started and got a blank page, just like several of you. And everyone on my instagram got the white page as well. VERY frustrating, but please know you're not alone. I still can't even get the page to load and it's now 9:30 Pacific.
ReplyDeleteI tried too! This is really disppointing.
DeleteOh that's horrible!!! That link never worked! I guess this works out very well for them by selling those advances boxes! Oh well :(
DeleteI got the blank screen too... but now it just loaded and it says the same thing it did before 12:01 "COMING SOON" is there confirmation the box is sold out?

Got all the way to the purchase page to get the message (in a nutshell) "The site went down in the middle of the sale and to make it fair game will be rescheduled for the same time (12:01 EST) on MAY 6th...dangit! :)
ReplyDeleteToo bad the site was down, but at least we all get another chance next week. Also came across a listing of the items, so now you can really decide whether you want it or not (see below). I think for $44.95 it's worth it. But anyone know how much will shipping be?
ReplyDeleteThe items I wasn't sure about or corrections - Aloxxi Flexible hold hairspray, Burt's Bees Brightening even-tone moisturizing cream, Cargo lip gloss in Tuscany (didn't even notice this in the pic sitting next to the IT CC cream), Developlus anti-aging hair treatment system, Flower Nail'd it nail lacquer, Pureology Fresh Approach dry condition, Redken Mess Around 10 disrupting cream-paste, Softsoap Sea Kissed exfoliating body wash, Oscar Blandi dry protect heat spray, GK ThermalStyleHer styling cream. Hope this helps anyone who didn't already know what items were for sure in the box.
