eta: healthy surprise


 
Currently:  Birchbox, Beauty Box 5, Sample Society, Love With Food, and The Look Bag.  I only have the budget for 2 or 3 of these, so all but Birchbox are new to me and on a trial basis.  

Cancelled:  MyGlam, Platinum Box.

 
I ended up winning a blog giveaway for a free month of LoveWithFood along with 9 other people...which is silly because I already had a coupon for a free month (and I already signed up with it)!  For some reason I thought the prize would be more than one free month since there was that other coupon already floating around....

But it's nice to know it's possible to actually win those blog giveaways!

 
I subscribe to Birchbox and recieved my first Birchbox in January..  I really love Birchbox's service.  The products are all good quality products from good brands, and are products I will use.  I have rec'd things in my Birchbox that I would never have tried otherwise that I have since purchased full size and are now my favorites.  I like the Birchbox points!  

I also signed up for Beauty Bar/Sample Society and am looking forward to recieving my first box that is shipping on March 5th.  This subscription includes a years subscription to Allure magazine, and they give you 15.00 to apply to a purchase of a full size product that is in your box.  They have some great products on their website, so I expect this to be a good service!

I had MyGlam, but canceled before I rec'd my first Glam bag in February and am glad I did.  MyGlam's february bag is worthless to me.  There was not one thing in it I would use.  MyGlam had a fabulous December bag (their first), the January bag wasnt so hot, but did have a full size The Balm product in it, so that was ok.  The February bag was just horrible.  I feel bad for the people who signed up for the annual subscription. With so many subscription services out there now, I cant imagine why anyone would stay with MyGlam. 

 
I'm subscribed to Birchbox, Sample Society, and The Look Bag.  I was with Myglam but I cancelled after my first and only bag in February.  Drugstore and infomercial crap is not my thing.  I cancelled Beauty Army too, but only because I'm waiting for them to get more stock and change up their samples.  I loved my first box from them, but my next sample picks were half of the same things and I wasn't impressed with them.  I re-did my quiz about 50 times, but there was very little variation in the samples offered.  So, I cancelled and will wait for them to get a bit better.  I'm thinking about cancelling Sample Society because I wasn't overly impressed with the first box and I would rather put that money towards Beauty Fix.  I'm thinking about signing up for Beauty Fix, but only if I get the discount on the first month.  We'll have to see.  I may have to work over the budget a bit to fit it in.  I discovered Birchbox last year and I've become a bit obsessed with beauty and subscription services.  Thankfully, I'm just not that into shoes, or I would get into huge trouble with Shoedazzle.

I have accounts with Shoedazzle, Jewelmint, Shoemint, etc., I've just never actually been impressed enough with their selections/prices to order anything from them.  I also have a beauty army account but have never liked my options so I've never ordered a box.

I have since added a second BB account, Beauty Fix and canceled My Glam. Still waiting on GlossyBox.

I am only going to keep either SS OR Glossybox, not both, so it will be interesting to see which one will end up with my business. SS had a LOT of issues the first round of boxes so if that continues next month I will not keep that one no matter how good it is. Life is too short to waste time. I have never had any issues AT ALL with BB, they definitely set the standard.

Subscribe to: Julep Maven - American Beauty & Boho Glam profiles

Myglam

Birchbox

Sample Society 

Cancelled: BeautyFix. $50 a month is way too much money to me. But they have really nice CS people! 

Have accounts on beautymint, stylemint, jewelmint, and a bunch of those but nothing on them has made me want to spend $30. 

 
Here are my updated subs:

Keeping:

Birchbox

Blissmo (because I signed up for a 3 month sub, but also because I like it!)

Julep Maven - It Girl (i'll probably skip quite a few months though since i'll be out of the country for awhile) I just bought the one cent intro box and the Mystery box, yay!

Chopping Block:

Sample Society (I was frustrated with their shipping/online issues, now it's just because I'm just not sure if i'll get much use out of the products)

Sindulge (deciding after my free box)

Love With Food (got the free box, it was great! but not really worth $14...check out my blog if you want to see what I got)

Canceled:

The Look Bag - I really liked the first box...I just didn't see anything I was interested in for this month. Maybe i'll rejoin if April's looks good.

I REALLY want to sign up for the QVC Test Tube version, I hope I get lucky and squeeze in the next time they offer it.

 I will admit I am sooo Addicted to these! It's fun to try new products and get special goodies in the mail.

 

Jewelmint-I often skip months because I don't like the items or I feel they aren't worth $30

Julep Maven-I plan on skipping some months

Bircbbox-I signed up for two to guarantee that I receive the TV box this month but I Might cancel my second account

Myglam-I received my first bag in January. I might cancel depending on how the next few months go, though I bet the month I cancel it will be awesome and I'll miss out!

BeautyArmy-I love that I get to pick my samples but it can be frustrating taking the quiz several times before I get results I like. If they do not provide different companies and selections I will probably cancel them in a month or two. I'm happy we'll eventually be able to skip a month! Their customer service is superb!

Green Grab Bag-I love trying organic/natural Beauty products

The Look Bag

Sample Society

QVC Test Tube

Beautyfix

Sindulge-I am only paying 1cent and from the looks of it will probably cancel this right away after I receive my box in the mail.

 

New Ones I Should Receive this Month

1. Eco Emi-I will probably cancel them depending on how much I like Goodebox since I already have the Green Grab Bag and they are all green/natural products but Ecoemi has fewer beauty items

2. Goodebox-I'm kind of excited about this one!

3. Beauty Box 5

 

Monthly Boxes I order from time to time

Little Black Boxes

Divaliscious Sample Box

My Dream Sample Box

Sampler Village Box

 

I'm on the waiting list for

Curlbox, TheSoapBox, and Glossybox USA

I want to try Blissmobox but only when they have beauty items as an option

 

I cancelled-Regular Test Tube but loved almost everything in my QVC tube test tube

 

 

 
Be careful with the stuff you get from Eco-Emi. Check the expiration dates especially on food as she's sent out at least twice since October/November food that expired.

 
Thanks!! I looked it up and I emailed them so they can add me to the waitlist.
