October Glossybox

As some of you may know I signed up for GlossyBox in early October and received my first box about a week later. (Watch September's box here.) Well, here it is November I hadn't received anymore, even though I paid for a 3 month subscription. After contacting customer service they resent my October box and here is what was in it.

For some reason it won't let my add the video here so please follow the link.

My November box has not arrived yet and I hope I don't have to contact customer service again. At least they were super helpful, unlike Julep Maven. (See why here.)

Why I canceled my Birchbox subscription

Back in December I told you that I was going to cancel my subscription to Birchbox and that I would explain why later. Sorry it took me so long, but here is my explanation. 

The main reason is that I am trying to save money. Last year I had prepaid for a full year, and I just could not afford to do it again.

Second, if you have watched my Birchbox opening videos you'll have noticed that the quality of the boxes have gone down quite a bit. Most of the products are either super tiny samples or just something I will not use. Yes, there is usually one product I am excited about, but not enough to justify spending $10 a month.

Third, I have so many samples to still try. I literally have a box full of samples that I would like to get rid of before I start adding more.

Fourth, I want to try other subscription services. My plan is to take a few months off and then try 3-4 other services. I am thinking of trying GlossyBox, Ipsy, and BeautyArmy.

What subscription services have you heard a lot about or tried and liked?
