Birchbox: will keep

New Beauty TestTube (regular version) Will keep. Good value for skincare. Big samples and full sizes.

Uncertainties:

Blissmobox: unsure about whether to keep. Value seems uneven across the boxes. 

Eco Emi: May keep or toss depending on the next couple of shipments. Will probably keep either Blissmo or Eco Emi.

Little Black Bag: Will probably skip frequently or cancel but I needed a new wallet so I thought I'd give them a try for a month or two.

Nopes:

Julep Maven: Will cancel. I just don't use them enough but had a coupon so I figured I'd try.

Waiting for:

Glossybox

Sample Society

Considering: 

one of the baby boxes as I'm expecting and think it might be a fun way to try new baby products (and not have to shop).

What I really wish is that Ulta or Sephora would do a Birchbox type thing each month and you could stack your review points there. Sephora is so stingy and mean (even to VIBs) but they carry a lot of brands that I like.

 
Thats funny because I think the same thing about Sephora. The sales people are so snotty, I have only ran across a nice one ONCE. I also get the same feeling from Ulta, so I tend to do my shopping online.1

Do most of these services ship around the beginning of the month?

I would love it if I could get a different box every week. Something to look forward to. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Well, I am down to just Sample Society. Birchbox has disappointed me too many times. I can't wait for GlossyBox to open.

 
Just so we're clear I have only recently become obsessed with sample subscriptions. I haven't received more than 2 boxes from any of these services yet. I don't plan on keeping all of these, just giving them all a chance before I cancel.

Subs I have been very happy with so far: MyGlam, Eco-Emi, The Sample Lounge, Green Grab Bag

Subs that I have liked and disliked: BeautyArmy (will probably cancel after I receive my next box), Birchbox (my first box was all skincare products but I was much more impressed with my second box)

So far unimpressed (I've only received one of each of these): BeautyBox5, My Platinum Box, LovelyBox (cool idea, but not sure I'm getting my moneys worth), Little Black Box (unsubscribed right away)

Waiting on my first box for: Sample Society, Glymm, Look Bag, Bluum, Sindulge and JuleP

I also subscribed to GoGoGirlfriend before I started visiting this forum. I've been trying to cancel for the last couple weeks and still haven't heard anything from them.

 
Currently subscribed:

Birchbox: March was my first box, I got the Teen Vogue edition unfortunately my perfume sample came broken , I do not blame the company for that I understand things shift when being delivered but I contacted them about it and since they still had some samples in stock they said they were going to send me a replacement one, which I am waiting for now. Seeing how the next few boxes go I will decide to keep it or just cancel it.

Considering:

Beauty Army

Sample Society (on the waiting list for it)

Goodebox

Good & Lovely: I love the idea with this one so I may do a trial run of this and see

Waiting to hit the US, I know I wanna try this one out:

Glossybox
I'm thinking of just getting the first Julep box for $.01 and canceling it after since I don't think it's worth $20 a month.

Today I ordered Love With Food, first box is free with a code, so I'll see about that since I always carry around little snacks in my purse.

I only want to have 3-4 subs, I know it's gonna be hard choosing but I don't need my parents questioning me about packages coming every few weeks for me they already think I spend too much money.

 
Thanks for frequently lurking the Makeup Talk message boards (after doing a Birchbox google search, or something like that), I am now addicted!! I have so far gotten 1 month of Beauty Army, 1 month of Beautyfix, and probably 3-4 Birchboxes.

I love Birchbox in that it's a surprise every time (if I'm good and don't peek on this site!).

Beautyfix is an EXCELLENT value, especially with the coupon codes just posted here https://www.makeuptalk.com/t/124562/beautyfix-coupon-promotion-for-makeuptalk They have a huge selection and variety of generously sized products, and you get to choose exactly what you want.

I think I'm going to cancel my Beauty Army, as their brands are a little more 'out there' than Birchbox, and they don't seem to have much variety. It's mostly lotions for your body or face, from what I can tell.

I must say, this is a fun addiction to have!

 
Hi Everyone! I have a subscription to Birchbox (which I love) and Beauty Army.  I am going to do a 3 or 6 months subscription to The Look Bag and maybe a subscription to beautyfix since we can get $20 off with the coupon code. I'm on the wait list for Glossy Box which I can't wait.

 
So I just added another sub
