Just subscribed to Sample Society

I’ve read great reviews about the box, so hopefully it doesn’t disappoint. Plus a free year of Allure was hard to pass up! It says my box ships out June 1 so I’ll do a haul then!

first post!

So recently I started looking into beauty boxes and I just ordered my first one! Most of them put me on waitlist but I did order a box from beautyfix!

Other boxes that I’ve done research on and seem like they’re worth subscribing to; 

1. Glossybox- $21 a month, but they have great travel sized samples (not sample size like most of the other boxes) and from what I’ve seen. It comes packaged in a cute pink box (reusable!) with tissue paper surrounding it. Waitlisted for this one, but will forsure subscribe once it’s open.

2. Birchbox- $10 a month, mostly sample sizes. Comes in a little cardboard box and from what I’ve read this seems to be most people’s favorites although the sizes on this one are a bit small for me. It has some great samples though and when I’m taken off the waitlist for it i’ll be sure to subscribe for at least a month or two.

3. Beauty Bar Sample Society- $15 a month, but this one’s great because it comes with a free year long subscription of Allure magazine even if you only subscribe to the box for a month! Most of the reviews I’ve read about this one are great, might try this one out as well! This one’s open right now!

4. Beauty Army- $12 a month, with up to six beauty samples. It’s fairly priced and the reviews I’ve read all say good things so I’ll also be trying this one out once it opens up since at the moment I’ve been waitlisted. 

So, after searching and searching for information over the past 3 days, these are the beauty boxes I’ve narrowed my choices down to mainly because they’re affordable and because I’ve read good reviews on them. I mostly lean towards Glossybox because it’s got the cutest packaging, and I’m a sucker for nice packaging!
