Glymm Bag August 2012 / Exciting New Products + FREE GIFT




I was very lucky this month. Glymm August came in a beautiful, black cosmetic bag with two full sized products - a skincare item, and a lip gloss. Unfortunately, many other subscribers were extremely disappointed - as many have not received anything in full size. I must confess, the reason why I have received that extra gift was the fact that I have contacted Glymm to cancel my subscription - they in turn offered a free gift. Nevertheless, it was a 'good' box. And I only wish Glymm would step up and invite more manufacturers to include their samples - let's face it...samples are cheap! and may not be worth much to many of the manufacturers. Despite that this month was almost excellent, next month may be awful again. I am going to cancel. Let's hope the cancellation process will go well. Fingers crossed.

  3. that is a great bag! you got a nicer colour of the mai couture lip gloss than i did a few months ago (i got the beige-ish colour). i actually went to the atelier cologne counter when i was in paris and bought a full size of the trefle pur because i liked it so much... what did you think of the scent?

  4. Ditto to what ellesy said; you got a nice shade of the Mai Couture lipgloss.
    I was thinking of cancelling. Do you get the hard sell to 'not cancel' from Glymm? I hate that.

  5. that is a very nice color of lipgloss - i remember really enjoying how the Mai Couture glosses are not sticky.
    interesting that they offered a free gift to try to keep you from unsubscribing. i think many of us are thinking of cancelling very soon if these bags do not improve - i don't feel like i am getting any value in my bags anymore.

  6. I cancelled mine after this box but had already paid for September so I wonder if they'll give me something extra to get me to re-sub for October? Hmm... Honestly, it would probably work if the bonus product is decent, lol.

  8. Definitely a much better bag than mine! I'm contemplating on cancelling.

    On a much happier note, I am finally off the waiting list for Top Box!! I'll be getting my first one in September :)

  10. Keep an eye on your credit card statements.I had a VERY difficult time cancelling. It took months to get everything sorted out.

    My credit card company filed a claim to get me the months of back payments after I had canceled, but Glymm never actually stopped my subscription (they had said they had.) I only got a final response/action from them when I threatened report them to the authorities and or the Better Business Bureau. Hopefully you don't have any issues!
