What companies do you subscribe to?

[autumnandicarus]

[SIZE=10pt]Currently Subbing[/SIZE]

• [SIZE=10pt]Goodies Company – first box in November![/SIZE]
• [SIZE=10pt]Beauty Army – Been subbed since launch day. I like that you can choose your products, skip months, and deactivate/reactivate whenever you want. I also love that when you deactivate you can still take the quiz and see what you’d get by reactivating.[/SIZE]
  

[SIZE=10pt]Canceled[/SIZE]

• [SIZE=10pt]Ipsy/MyGlam  – freakin’ terrible. I got their February box and they forgot to put TWO items into it. I notified them and they only sent me one of those items. The X-Out controversy and coupon thing settled my decision to cancel and never come back.[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=10pt]Birchbox  – I liked a lot of the products I got to try, but I never got the fantastic boxes. My BB experience has been plagued with box envy, I might as well spend $10 on an item I coveted than a random makeup product.[/SIZE]
  
• [SIZE=10pt]Julep – hate hate hate how you can’t just cancel via email or their website- I’ve been skipping for almost a year now because I always forget I have it, and when I remember it’s the weekends.[/SIZE]
  
• [SIZE=10pt]Little black bag – fun while it lasted, definitely worth the price for all of the stuff I got. After two months I didn’t see the point in keeping it when I had a ton of jewelry and 3 new bags from their site already.[/SIZE]
  
• [SIZE=10pt]Eco-Emi – I actually love eco-emi but really dislike how the billing works.[/SIZE] I might have re-subbed anyway if they didn't have that stupid waitlist (I really wanted an October box)
• [SIZE=10pt]Style Mint, Intimint, Jewel Mint – I didn’t even pay for a single month, I just realized after pining for their products that it wasn’t worth it.[/SIZE]
  

[SIZE=10pt]Wishlist:[/SIZE]

• [SIZE=10pt]Yuzen[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=10pt]Blissmobox[/SIZE]
  
• [SIZE=10pt]Conscious Box[/SIZE]
  
• [SIZE=10pt]Love with Food[/SIZE]
  
• [SIZE=10pt]Popsugar[/SIZE] - let me just say that I am SO JEALOUS of the July, September, and October boxes! I just checked their October box and died inside a little- I really want Casual Vacancy! If the September box had Casual Vacancy instead of Perks (I haven't read either but am not as interested in Perks) it would've been my perfect box.

Current Subs:

Birchbox (Nov will be my 7th month...it was my first sub, and despite all its issues, I don't think I'll cancel, just hoping they get back to basics)

Curlbox (Just signed up last night..and I'm super excited!

)

Sample Society (Nov will be my first box)

Goodies Co. (Oct will be my first month...my box gets delivered today!)

Julep (I've skipped the last 2 months...so I only really got one box from them, the intro box..it was meh)

Canceled:

Ipsy/MyGlam (Signed up for one month, Oct., it was meh...canceled)

 Curlbox is the bomb!  I've been subbed since May.  Full of surprises, full-sized products.  Any what you can't and won't use, you can gift it!  I'd love to hear what you think about it!

Sadly, I just cancelled everything! Trying to get my finances back on track and be able to resub in a couple of months. I'm so going to go through withdrawal...

Does Curlbox include a lot of products in the box that have sulfates or silicons?  I haven't subbed yet only because I'm afraid I won't be able to use the majority of the products.

 Very few products have sulfates or silicones.  Mostly without, but Not 100 %.  Give it a shot.  I'd love to hear what you think.  I love it! It's a very popular sub, can be difficult to get in.  If interested, I'd go to the website, sign up with credit card & everything else, so that when you get the e-mail that subs have opened up, you're closer to getting a box because you already set up an account and then you push the button submit and hopefully you're in.  Lemeno!

I recently dropped my two Birchbox subscriptions, and signed up for Popsugar. Working through my massive amount of samples that I now have. Popsugar costs less than what I was paying for two Birchboxes and Sample Society OR two Birchboxes and Glossybox. Sooo, needless to say, I'm excited to get more than junk this next month. Even if it does mean that I won't get any sample boxes in November.

I don't know about Pop Sugar, but I was really disappointed with Julep.  The bottles are seriously small (.27 oz as opposed to .5 oz in a bottle of OPI), and the formula of the ones I've tried are just so-so at best.  I think the luxury pricing is a marketing trick.  Others seem to love it, YMMV.
