Yay!! I finally got my package.. although I am a little disapointed that my card from Meg didn't seem to find it's way into my package- but Thank you thank you thank you.. I got tatrte amazonian clay shimmer powder in champagne.. which is a pretty color in a gorgeous compact, eco glow miniral makeup foundation in lust blush compleate with a cute little brush, tarte emphaeyes eye brightner, shea republic unrefined shea butter , pure energy facial mist in a orangy scent, achooz nose wipes (cool concept) and surgeon's skin beeswax and vanilla skin cream.. and a pretty lancome lipstick in a shade called love it.. which is a pretty soft natural pink--- now off to try off the goodies!!
update- just used the surgon's skin beeswax cream after my bath and it is Ah-May-Zing! it melts into your skin and the scent is not overwhelming but it still is fragrant..I want to see how soft my skin will becom after using this repeatedly.
hot damn another nice present from Meg and team.
I AM SO SPOILED BY THIS WEBSITE.
Here's the list of incredible goodies:
*A jar from Shea Republic (I love shea butter with the heat of a thousand suns so this is a fantastic gift for me);
* Picture Perfect from Lash M (my almost-40 years old eyes needs this);
*tarte smooth operator Amazonian clay illuminating serum (it has vitamin C!!!);
*tarte lip surgence in Pouty;
*tarte emphasEYES inner rim illuminator;
*tarte Amazonian clay blush in Blissful
thank you so much Meg and team! These are amazingly generous gifts, I'm very grateful!
I love love love the lotus wei energy mist spray.. it smells devine and it is all natural.. it really does refresh your skin after fatigue it also helps set your makeup.. the republic of shea butter is great.. you take a bit in your hand and then smooth the desired amount on your skin between this and the sergoun's secret beeswax cream Meg sent me I should have the smoothest softest skin in South Florida! The illuminizing powder works like a dream and is sooo pretty to pull out and retouch your makeup! The lipstick is in the shade "love it" what an appropriate name it looks like a pop of color but not too much and it is smooth and has a nice consistancy.. the tarte eye pencil does brighten your eyes especially after not being so rested.. the only product I haven't tried yet is the achooz nose wipes (fortunatly or unfortunatly I have been runny nose free).. All in all an amazing gift package thank you sooooo much!!!!
I haven't received my package yet, I redeemed in late December. Hope I receive something soon. Has anyone recently received something?
Oh, my god! I received UD'S Asphyxia liner (been dreaming of it since Christmas! :D), and Tarte's Amazonian clay shimmering powder and illuminating serum, and their eye brightener! Oh gods, they all work SO well! Thank you, Meg, so much! :DOh, and Lipsurgence in Pouty, which is a colour kinda wrong for my yellowish olive skin tone, but a friend already snagged it. :D
Received another gift, this is for a 250point cash out in January.Lashem Measurable Difference Lash Gel, this sounds like a fantastic product, but I already have long full soft lashes. So it's not a product I have any real use for.Tarte emphasEYES inner rim brightener in Nude. I'm one of those gal's who prefers to line their inner rim rather than the lash line, unfortunately I also happen to be one of those gal's where liner doesn't last more than a few minutes on my waterline. Tarte's liners are the one exception to that rule. They go on smooth, are highly pigmented, and stay put. I've tried the white/nude pencil trick, but it always looked unnatural and weird on me. This looks fantastic. It really does brighten, making my eyes look more open and awake. It also has an almost doll-like effect on me, which I find really flattering.Tarte provocateur Amazonian clay shimmering powder in Champagne. I'm not a bronzer gal, and I don't contour, but I always use a highlighter. I was a bit sceptical of how shimmery this would be, especially as my skin tends to emphasis shimmer in an unflattering way. But, this product gave a really beautiful sheen, and while it did add shimmer it was very subtle. This is the first product I've tried where the shimmer was actually flattering on me, rather than ending up looking like a disco ball. The champagne is meant to be for medium to dark skin tones, and I can see this being oh so flattering on dark tones, really bringing forth that golden glow. But as a pale gal it would be nice to try the rose one which is suppose to be for lighter skin tones.Tarte Amazonian Clay long-wear Blush in Blissful. While this is described as being a warm peach, I would say that it more closely resembles a watermelon pink. This is not really a colour I would wear, I'm more inclined towards rose or berry tones. Corals and peaches are unflattering on my winter skin.
When did you all redeem your points? I know I should wait another month, but I'm getting impatient! (redeemed 3/1)

I hope me and my mom receive our packages soon. We redeemed back in late december and we still haven't received anything!
What is the usual wait time to recieve your package? I redeemed in August and I have not recieved anything yet. This is only the second time I redeemed my points, but the first time I redeemed it only took like 2 months. I'm kind of frustrated because I've sent several emails about it and I have not heard back. Is it normal for it to take 8 months? I don't mind waiting, I just want to make sure my redemption has not been over looked or something.
i recieved tarte inner eye brighterner, lipstain, blush and shimmer powder compact for 50 points. I was surprised at how much stuff was sent for only 50 points. i was really impressed by the inner eye brighter and blush. thanx meg :D
I just got my package from Meg's! I got UD's Dangerous Palette and Lorac's 3D lipgloss in Cliche. :-)
Yesterday in the mail I received Lorac 3D lipgloss in Cliche (bright pink with blue shift), Tarte Shimmering Powder in Rose, Urban Decay Urban Defense Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 in Bodyguard (unfortunately a bit too dark for me, if anyone is interested in a trade), and a sample (1.5 g) of Sheer Cover foundation in Golden (also too dark if anyone wants to trade, it's not opened) Darn me and my pale skin! Love the gloss and the shimmer powder though, very nice stuff. I put on the gloss and my boyfriend jokingly got out some 3D shades to see if it's really 3D, it was cute :) He likes the shade on me.Thanks Meg!!

I havent redeemed mine yet, but with everyone getting such great products I cant wait to see what I get!!!
i also redeemed mine a while ago and havent gotten it yet :( this is my second time, the first time i redeemed it, it came in like 2 weeks! I'm just worried because i am graduating and i had it delivered to my dorm.. and i wont be here after this month! i emailed meg through some random contact us link, i hope she'll read it! Does anyone else know how else i can email her? any help would be appreciated. thanks!!
Cross fingers I'll get some Tarte and Urban Decay goodies. I don't want to receive any more Lorac and Sheer Cover minerals coz my sister has a lot of them!
Hopefully those who are waiting for their packages get them soon. I can imagine Meg has a lot to do since this place is very popular:)If you haven`t received an answer from her, try again, sometimes emails go into cyberspace and never to be found again unfortunately.
I got my first Meg's package! I also got Lorac 3D lipgloss in Cliche, the Tarte Shimmering Powder in Rose, UD Urban Defense TM and this cool Lorac "liquid lustre" product. SO FUN playing with my goodies! The package was oh, so generous too --- thanks Meg!!! I am loving this site. <3
All your packages sounds so fun! I'm still waiting for mine ... I hope it comes soon, all my trips to the mailbox are making me sad.

I'm starting to get sad, especially because I love Tarte and Urban Decay. Everybody who got stuff recently cashed out way after I did (March 1st), and I'm still waiting. Same thing has happened to a couple other friends, too. I know that it's super-generous of Meg to send stuff at all, but I'm feeling a bit forgotten.

@EmilysMakeupBox I know, girl. I cashed out Feb 6 and haven't received anything. I didn't realize it had been that long since I redeemed my points until yesterday. I sent an email about it last night and you should do the same if you haven't already. I also checked my Paypal statement to make sure the payment went through and it says it did, so no problems from my end. This is the first time I've ever had an issue with redeeming points. There have been four successful redemptions, and I'm very grateful for them. But I don't want to have wasted $12 either.
I feel the same way. I've been waiting patiently since August 7th. I'm guessing my redemption was overlooked somehow, because no one else seems to have waited that long. What bothers me the most is that I've been emailing about it for months and I have not heard back. I kind of feel like I'm being ignored. I've also double checked my Paypal account and my payment did go through. It is super generous of Meg to send out these awesome packages when we only have to pay $12 for shipping, so I feel bad complaining. But it does bum me out that I've been waiting so long and no one has gotten back to me.
I redeemed my points almost three weeks ago so I have awhile to go before I get my package but I hope I don't get forgotten. All these post about not receiving the package is making me feel doubtful about receiving mine. =(
I cashed out Feb 22nd, and haven't received it yet.
I redeemed early March and haven't received anything yet. I hope getting my package in the next weeks. I did have trouble receiving packages in August and October but Meg sent me a humongous one to excuse herself. Don't worry, I hope everyone of you gets spoiled!

Wow Camiller2! I also redeemed my points early March and haven't received anything yet! Hopefully, will receive something soon! Thanks for comforting me!
I like to redeem my points at 250. I try to write thoughtful entries so seeing this HUGE envelope of goodies this afternoon was so exciting. I think it took about 3 weeks from the time I sent my Paypal payment. I got the new Giovanni skin care line - facial wash, scrub and moisturizer, all full size, an Urban Decay tinted moisturizer (which I was dying to try), and a UD pencil in a great terra cotta color. Also got Thymes hand cream and Ferro's Glow Glow Baby. WOW! Thank you so much. My husband couldn't pick out a better SWAG bag and I have been with him for 25 years.
I received my goodies last week. I got the Giovanni Face D:Tox System, Urban Decay Lip Pencil in Midnight Cowboy, LORAC 3D Gloss, and one Tan Towel Self-tanning Towelette. I'm excited to try them out!Thanks Meg <3
another fantastic package from Meg, thank you so much!
I got the Giovanni D:tox system - cleanser, scrub, moisturizer, and mask I cannot wait to try this because it has charcoal in it, which is supposed to be awesome for deep cleaning
and also LaLicious Passionfruit Lime sugar souffle body scrub! I'm nearly out of my Trader Joe's scrub so this will be headed to the shower soon!

I was lucky enough to get UD tinted moisterizer (love it!!) the giovanni detox face mask, lorac lip gloss in 3d cliche, UD creamy lipliner in midnight cowboy, and liptini in razztinii with a doble edge gloss, as well as some ferro bronzer in glow.. thank you so much for your generous gifts.. they are being enjoyed!!

Yay! I got my 250 point package today. I got an Urban Decay tinted moisturizer, Lorac liquid lustre, Lorac 3d gloss in cliche, and a Tarte shimmering powder in rose. I love everything! I was actually planning on purchasing the Urban Decay moisturizer next time I went to the mall, so I was especially excited to receive it. Thanks! :)
I got my package last wk! 250pts I cashed in early march. I received: UD Tinted Moisturiser (Did anyone else get this moisturiser in "FORCEFIELD"?
