Are they worth it?!

Which would you go for, Birchbox or glossybox?

I got this

Now sold out but new one in October.

Lovely box and fab contents,

Check out whichbeautyboxuk.com/

She reviews loads of boxes so it gives you a good idea of what's out there.

I had Glossybox but cancelled it after 3 boxes. Some of the products were really good, but when you try to buy online you find out how expensive they are, and have to pay a bomb for shipping.
Also, GBox don't personalise their selection to your needs, whereas apparently Birchbox do. I may be trying Birchbox soon.

Do take advantage of the new customer discounts they both have. Maybe even order both and see which you prefer

Thank you for the replies, I'll give both a go!

I get Birchbox, DD and I share it. We love it and get to try lovely products. Good range of make up, skin care, hair care and body products.

I have Birchbox and so far really like it, it's more beauty products than make up but I like that Smile
I've got a referral if you decide to go with it and want to use it 😃

Did birchbox ever get round to doing a cruelty free box?

ImYourWomanJonSnow · 30/09/2016 06:37

They've been making noises about starting one for a while but I haven't yet seen it announced

If you're looking for beauty subscriptions, take a peek at our round up of the best beauty boxes - as chosen by Mumsnetters here.

This selection is based on recommendations from the Style & Beauty boards but, if we’ve left out your go-to pair (or you want to shout about a great new find), just let us know. Plus, check out Swears by for a weekly roundup of all the Mumsnetter must-haves.

I just saw the board clogged up with Beauty Box zombie threads and came on to report what I assumed was a Beauty box newcomer taking the mickey ...
but hang on, it’s Mumsnet, spamming their own boards?! C’mon guys! I love you, but really.

Depends what you want to try. I didnt findthem value for money for me. Check out Eltoria on utube as she does review on quite a few
