Beauty Boxes (Monthly Subscription) Codes and Chat Thread 2

Clutterfree

Thanks for the list.
Will be giving YBD box a miss again.

Tad concerned that they are saying they'll bill you on the 28th though. It was always the 1st previously.

I hope they aren't going down the route of debitting your card BEFORE they release the shortlist so that you can't cancel.

As a newbie to beauty boxes, how do you choose which might be the best type for you. Myself and a friend are going to share the contents. We've got similar tastes and don't buy lots of different products just like a few good ones.i like Mac, bobbie brown, Liz Earle for example

Latest in Beauty have one off boxes that normally contain between 6-8 products from various companies and you can see what's included. They have about 6 boxes at the moment all around the £20 mark which would give you a nice start for different brands and not be tied to a contract. You can also build a box which could be good if you are sharing.

Cohorted has the higher end market but is very repetitive with their contents and their CS isn't great. Does have NARS etc though.

As for the rest, Lovelula has natural products, Birchbox can be a bit samey, My Little Box has lifestyle item as well as 3 beauty products. All boxed up is another one that's ok and are one off..

Have a look back at the threads and at unboxing you tube clips for ideas (pick UK based folk though as shipping costs are mega)

As a started though, can't go wrong with latest in beauty imho

I bought the Look Incredible delux box and received it yesterday. I have put a spoiler below and have cancelled the box as personally I was not that impressed.

I received:
The Balm voyage palette vol 2, which did not excite me and I am not a huge fan of the company.
Est!e Lauder lip conditioner which the product was smooched at the top which for me isn't impressive and makes me not want to use it.
Bareminerals multi- wrinkle repair serum for me probably the only thing I will use in the box.
Benefit gimme brow in medium/ dark. Which if in a lighter shade would have been good but it's too dark so I can't use it so will pass on.

Thank you for the spoiler! I cancelled the box in March, but they charged me again for April one, this will be definitely the last one for me!

I was not happy with March one, because all products were produced more than 3 years ago... not good at all for mascara.

I ordered kawaii panda box for April spoiler underneath.


i got:
Tony moly pocket bunny ( this was released as the spoiler) a face mist and can be purchased for $5.57. It's okay.
Tony moly circle lense mascara which can be purchased for $2.33, a cheap mascara
Farm stay snail sun cream which can be bought for $2.32, an okay brand with not bad reviews
Syn-ake wrinkle soap which can be bought for $2.74
Secret key steam cream which can be bought for $6.55
So the total for the box is $19.60 or $31.83 with postage from Korea based on buying from roseroseshop . I was a big memebox fan and the box received which I don't think is bad and would be good for those who have not tried Korean products but for me I won't be buying again. I hate facial soaps and still have a couple from my memebox days, i won't use the mascara ( I only use waterproof) the steam cream will go to work tomorrow. I think I am concluding that I have outgrown beauty boxes.
