Finally!!! I got my shipping confirmation today. Below is what is in my surprise collection. I think I'll use some of it, and probably sell the rest on ebay. I put a "+" next to the items I think I'll be into, and a "-" next to those I don't think I'll like. Keep in mind, I'm very fair skinned.

RachB- You might try the Honey Bisque as an eye shadow, in the crease. (Since it's the small size. ) I love it for that!

Well, my surprise arrived today. And it didn't include everything listed above. No blush, no eyeliner. Instead, a hideous neon lip color and a brightening eyelid primer that was completely dried up. Couldn't even get it out of the tube. I love the marvelous moxie lipgloss in starlet, the apricot nectar lipgloss and the eyeshadow primer in pewter. I adore the patent leather pouch. I'll keep the 2 in 1 brush because I'm a sucker for brushes. The bronzing mineral veil, honey bisque and tinted antioxidant primer are way too dark for my fair skin. I'll sell them on ebay and can probably get at least $40 bucks. So yea, I'd say the rest of the items I like are worth the $10 difference once I sell the others.

I wonder if you call their customer service if they would offer a partial refund for the missing items?

[Rachb]

The shipment still had the expected quantity, just not what the shipping notification specified.

[Jeannie29]

I'm sorry! I missed that at first. I'm also a fan of their brushes and have way more in my stash than I can ever use

I just opened up my box and have to say I'm very disappointed. I didn't receive two items on the invoice, a blush and eyeliner pencil. Instead they substituted a mini Prime Time eyelid primer and a Pretty Amazing lipgloss. I've learned my lesson and will never order one of these " surprise or mystery boxes" again!

[Rachb]

Jordan, same with me. And my eyelid primer was dried up. I squeezed and squeezed and nothing came out. So I cut it open and it's all crumbly

I learned my lesson from the last surprise kit,I had everything in it but the gloss color. If you buy with any regularity bare minerals these kits are not for you. I remember the surprise kits from Leslies era and they were really great. Now, unfortunately the company seems greedy, they just put in products that were not that great at retail, or, just old discontinued products. I too have received eye primers that are old and you cant even get the product out. Lesson learned

Well I boxed my beauty surprise and sent it back today. You're suppose to call them to say you are sending it back. I told the customer rep I was not happy with the quality and selection of the products sent to me and didn't think they were worth the $188 the site claimed. I also told her of the 2 items I didn't receive instead getting substitutes for them. It cost me almost $15 to send it back by UPS! Costly lesson to learn, if something sounds too good to be true it probably is!
