Birchbox or Lookfantastic beauty box?

Hi

I was gifted a look fantastic beauty box last year, a 3 month subscription. I really liked trying some new products, but I gave away about half of the products because I wouldn’t use them (contouring kit, false eyelashes etc - not my thing)

I would really like it again, but I’ve seen Birch box advertised. I’m wondering if anyone has tried both and which one you find best? Or which one you think would be best for me.

I am 41, so would like anything anti-aging. Not big on lots of make-up, no contouring etc. I like a more natural look, but I do wear make-up every day and a bit more on a night out. I have highlighted blonde hair. Pale skin, no tanning.

Thanks!

LF have a really good one this month (avant moisturiser, korres face mask, balance me facial spray etc), but don't know what the other 2 months will be like!

You could check out the contents for both LF and Birchbox May boxes and make a decision. Birchbox is a bit cheaper, I haven't tried it yet though

Yes I did do that. I think with look fantastic you don’t necessarily know exactly what you’re getting. The food thing with Birchbox is that you build a profile and they send products personalised to your requirements. So I’ve gone with them for 3 months. After that I’ll know which one i prefer. Thanks!
