Any Birchbox subscribers?

Hi
I'm considering asking my DH for a 6 month Birchbox subscription for Christmas. Just wondering if anyone subscribed and if it's worth it?

I cancelled after about 6 months as half the stuff they sent I didn't use - for example shampoo for blonde hair (I have dark hair) and so many highlighters/bronzers. But I think 6 months would be a good amount of time to see if you'd like it.

I've just received my third box, I'm not cancelling yet but I can't see me continuing much more than another one or two. I've tried some new products from it but there tends to be stuff there I just don't want/won't use.

I did in the past and now i get a Look Fantastic one which i love

I tried it for about 6 months. I liked it! I think 6 months was just right as the sixth box contained a couple of repeats. I have found a couple of products I now use/buy regularly after trying the sample from birchbox so I'd say it was worth it.

I did, absolutely loved the first couple of months. But ended up cancelling after a few months as it gets repetitive pretty quickly and too many of the products didn’t get used.
Would be great as a one off box but not s a long term subscription

You get some nice products you might not usually buy. When I signed up there was a spacial offer of a free makeup brush set which I still use daily.

But I ended up with a lot of products I won't use or don't need so it was wasteful and I cancelled after 3 boxes.

Ive had it silence the start of the year and never had any repeats of products for the wrong harm or colour (you give all that info up front).

But I am getting fed up of how many highlighter / blusher combos and lipsticks I get as don't wear either! So will stop it soon
