Best Beauty Subscription Box?

9 replies

ryanreynolds · 02/06/2019 18:09

Hi ladies,
I have a GlossyBox subscription that has just about come to an end. Unsure whether to renew or go for one of the others?

I find I prefer the skincare stuff over the make-up stuff, so would prefer ones more weighted towards skincare.

Any recommendations?

Thanks

The one from qvc is not a subscription, you can just buy whenever you want

I also buy the ones from Powder
box.thisispowder.co.uk/

Glossy box and Birch box I found were utter rubbish.

Lookfantastic do different ones

I got dd one of the Look Fantastic ones for Christmas and it's excellent. Full size stuff that you've heard of, not just uber niche stuff. A good mix of make up and skincare (The Ordinary full bottles, Omorizka or whatever it's called, the mega bucks one etc etc.

@Soola hadn't heard of Powder - will have a look now!

@TheCanterburyWhales was just looking at that one...good to hear a vote of confidence for it!

Latest in Beauty are good because you can choose which products you want.

Look Fantastic is really good. Birchbox is very average, lots of cheapo fillers.

Avoid Birchbox, utter tripe. Filled with plastic tat, stickers and postcards rather than beauty products.

Those Powder boxes look really expensive for the products they show - most of the contents have been in Glossyboxes recently?

The QVC one looks good!

Latest in beauty - flexible, choices, also good value one-off collections

Another vote against the Birchbox ones. I got the Black Friday deal but was very under impressed. Not at all,tempted to buy one again.

I’ve been trying to find a good one that’s cruelty free. I contacted Birch and they confirmed that theirs is not... does any body know if any of these cruelty free?
