Glossybox USA! - April & May discussion

[yanelib27]

I have sample society (which is def worth the $) and 3 BBs right now but I can only bring myself to cancel one BB account, and now adding glossy box. Not too bad.. although I realize thats 60.00 a month on samples.. I may decide to cut back to one of each and if GB is not worth it (if I dont use the samples they send) I will drop it in a heartbeat

YES I'm so worried about that. I love BB so much, but MyGlam totally did that and I was so mad about it. I am very worried that will happen with Glossybox. Maybe I should subscribe now just for one month? I need advice!!!!! I also have a blog, so maybe it'd be good to be on of the 1st to subscribe??

I signed up! Yay!

Don't ask for advice here, we're all enablers! We say do it! LOL

*sad face* I did it, signed up /:

I wasn't planning on signing up, but I'm new to subs and still not sure which ones are my favorite/ worth it. I'm justifying getting GB by saying I'll test it for a few months, and then start narrowing everything down /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

"Motherofall6"-- I also have glossybox, myglam and birchbox. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm actually pretty satisfied with birchbox, but I might be canceling myglam soon. I at least wanted to

stay through the summer. 

this may gg is my 1st birchbox /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> and this month is my 2nd myglam , so far i am liking both ,especially that urban decay liner last month yay

After saying I would NEVER pay that much for a box...y'all are making me very tempted. The first box will prob be the best, so I might sign up for the first one and then cancel! Or will I? You guys are no good for my bank account!!! lol

 

[Missyrocks]

I agree on BB. I just don't see the value so far even in the GG box. I love Testtube and think it's way worth it with all the full sized products that are high end as well. I'm trying this just to see, but may well cancel. I got my first Beauty Army and liked it. The Joico made it worth the $ & I like that you can choose. But I keep thinking that if I applied the $ I spend in subs, I can go buy products elsewhere. But it is fun. Will hang in there a little longer.

 

[MissLindaJean]

Oh...i couldn't resist, signed up for a box and will test it..plan on skipping some of my Julep Mavens to try this out..we'll see!

 

[eluveitie]

I just signed up..I need to start curbing my spending on makeup/subs though. I think I'm going to cancel Julep and beauty army for right now though. That'll make myself feel a little better about paying $21 for a sub

        I think myglam is bound to get better. I'm cutting them some slack as they're a brand new company. I'm just trying to go easy on the bank account. lol. I'm very new to subs and I don't want to overdo it, so for now I'm pretty much just testing the waters to see which boxes I enjoy the most. 

        They actually sent me the liner in Ransom (purple), which was one I already had! I was like, "Oh, no!!" when I saw it. lol. I would have enjoyed receiving "Perversion". There's always room in my makeup box for more black liners. I do kind of enjoy that most of these subscription services are pretty random in what they send. You never know what you're going to get, so in that way it's more like a surprise each month. I think that's the most exciting part about it all. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Also, does anyone know if this is the same box as the one sent out to everyone else? I hope not /: I'd be sad. I want it to be new/a surprise(somewhat).
