The Girly Enthusiast

I can’t believe it’s already been an entire YEAR since I became a Birchbox subscriber. Today I received a pretty pink leather key chain in the mail from Birchbox as a ‘thank you’ for my membership, along with a 25% off discount code (bblove25). Birchbox was gateway drug into the world of beauty subscriptions. Some good, some bad, some really abhorrent. Read below for my thoughts on each beauty box that I have subscribed to over the past year.

I love how all of my subscription services are getting into the spirit of Summer this month. The July Cravebox is no exception, naming this month’s delivery a “BBQ Box” :) pretty sure it doesn’t get more Julyish (see what I did there) than that!

Cravebox is BACK! They took a little hiatus in April and I missed them oh so much. May’s Cravebox is dubiously themed “A Taste of the Tropics” and it was sincerely worth the wait.

This is officially my FAVORITE Cravebox to date! I am one of their “original gangstas” since I’ve been subscribed to Cravebox throughout their entire beta period. And so far, I have been happy with every single box that I’ve received. If you’re a monthly box subscription addict like me then you know how rare it is to find a service that keeps you consistently satisfied.  I can honestly say that Cravebox has done that for me. I think a big part of it is the variety of products that they send. It’s not just beauty, or just organics, or just nail polish. It’s an eclectic combination of awesome stuff that I’d never think to try had I not received it in my Cravebox!

I received my third Cravebox delivery last week. This isn’t strictly a “beauty” box (although there has always been at least one beauty item in each box), so I wouldn’t compare it to my other subscriptions. I have been thoroughly enjoying my  Cravebox membership because it’s turned me onto several products that I’ve  fallen in love with, but would have never tried otherwise. And that, my friends, is exactly why I join these monthly things! If you’re unfamiliar, you can checkout all of my past Cravebox posts here.

This is my second Cravebox delivery. Cravebox is another one of those monthly sampler delivery services, except it’s not entirely beauty focused. They send an eclectic combination of items ranging from household goods, food, and of course beauty. This month’s theme was “2012 Vitality” and included many items that you may find useful for your new years resolutions.

As if Birchbox, GoGoGirlfriend, Julep & the New Beauty Test Tube weren’t enough, I’ve added Cravebox to my arsenal of beauty sampler subscriptions. What I like about Cravebox is that it’s not limited to just beauty stuff. They include food and home products as well, pretty much anything that is “crave-worthy”. The very first Cravebox shipment, the December “Holiday Pamper Me Box” contained a little mix of everything!
