I signed up for this bag because I'm somewhat new to the makeup scene. I only wear a little mascara and eyeliner for work and I always apply it the same way, for the last 4-5 years. It's just too expensive to try out products at full price so I thought a $10 bag would be nice to sample products with. That only works if you can use the products you get and if they're something you were already interested in trying. I got a sneak peek at what's coming and it's blow dry cream (what even is that? I air dry my hair), hydrating primer (nice but the bag didn't come with any foundation so that's useless this month), blush (again useless without any foundation as I'm very fair skinned and the blush is very dark), and the most confounding to me is "eyebrow gel mascara." I don't know of any youtube beauty gurus who even use that, and I certainly don't need it with my black eyebrows. The only thing I might consider using is the loose powder foundation brush. I don't think I'll continue though because this month, all the possible items i could have gotten, I LOVED. And 4 of the items i got were the ones I was praying I wouldn't get because I have no use for them. And of course I got them. The quiz you take before ordering is a joke because they clearly don't follow it. They also add you to a "waiting list" the first time you sign up and want you to spam your friends on social media before taking you off early. I said screw that noise and emailed them demanding them to take me off the list and cancel my order. Instead, they took me off the waiting list and charged me for my order early. In one ear and out the other I guess. Well after this disappointment I definitely won't be continuing my next order.

Awful website. Deleting my account today. You'll get attacked for posting in anything other than "Newbies" where the only response you get is "welcome" and "hi" (so helpful). According to some responses on my posts in other categories, it's practically a crime not to introduce yourself formally first. MY BAD.

On top of that, prepared to get nagged at for $#*! completely unrelated to the issue you're asking about, and rest assured, it will be in the totally wrong context. Apparently the website used to have a place called The Ring where users could call each other out on $#*! and be passive aggressive as opposed to encouraging private messaging. These people have no lives and hide behind a computer screen to say nasty things to innocent strangers on the internet. It doesn't matter what you say. You're either "in" or you're "out". There's plenty of other, better forums that are moderated by people with a maturity level older than 16.

EDIT: For instance take a look at this thread. http://www.militarysos.com/forum/help-desk/*******-how-delete-account.html
Someone simply asks how to delete their account and get accused of looking for attention and one person claims they're "confrontational" and without even checking, people go along with it. Immature little girls.
