Last month around Black Friday, Rue la la had a sale on Glossybox, selling a 3 month subscription for $45 versus it’s usual price of $60. Glossybox had been one I was interested in trying so I thought 3 months would be a good test to see if it was something I wanted to […] Read more…
Target Beauty Box: Women Winter 2014
The Target Beauty box is one of my favorite things ever. This isn’t a subscription box but seasonally, Target has been putting out boxes of products and samples for around $10 a pop. This time, they offered three different boxes: For Her (which I’m reviewing), For Him, and Naturals. The women’s box was $10 but For Him […] Read more…
Pennie Post: December 2014
Unlike Jill, I am totally OK with receiving note cards in subscription boxes. So much in fact that I ordered a note card subscription box called Pennie Post! This is my third Pennie Post and I just adore it so much. They describe themselves as a “monthly mailing of stationery goodies” which really is the […] Read more…
Friday Favorites – Diet food that doesn’t suck.
When you love food, the worst torture ever is to be on a diet. I am getting married in 5 months, and I have to drop a few pounds to look my best. I seriously think about food all the time. This is probably why half of my subscription boxes are full of snacks and […] Read more…
Boxycharm: November 2014
Since Boxycharm sent me my October box in November, I wasn’t in a huge rush to review my November Boxycharm box in November. Especially when I wasn’t initially thrilled with the contents. But. Every box has it’s off months and for $21/month, Boxycharm usually sends an interesting collection of full size products. Unlike ipsy, their themes tend […] Read more…
Birchbox: November 2014
It’s November Birchbox time again! Birchbox is sort of The Queen of subscription boxes as it was one of the first to take the market by storm. For $10/month you get a pretty box of fun makeup and skincare samples that are tailored to you by a quiz you take when you sign up. It was my […] Read more…
Ipsy Glam Bag: November 2014
I’ve been avoiding writing about my November Ipsy Glam Bag for awhile because quite frankly, it annoyed me this month. For weeks, they were touting spoilers that contained big name brands like it Cosmentics, Laura Mercier, tarte, temptu, and Glam Glow. I would have been happy with something from ANY of those brands, really. It seemed […] Read more…
Sunset 45: November 2014
Sunset45 is a newer subscription box for me. This is only my second box and one that I’m still kind of on the fence about. There are a LOT of things I like about it, but there are still some things I’m not so excited about. Maybe I need to switch up the style I […] Read more…
Allure Sample Society: November 2014
Hello! This is my first month’s subscription with Allure’s Sample Society. Similar to other beauty subscription boxes, for $15 a month you receive 5-6 deluxe samples of beauty products. You also receive Allure’s “mini-mag” which is essentially a product card on steroids and the best one I’ve ever seen. After reading the mini-mag, there will […] Read more…

We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming of fun nonsense to bring you a special post about the things we are thankful for this year. Lauren: Things are about to get REAL SAPPY up in here. Just warning you. Something I am most grateful for this year is family. I’m so thankful for my new family in Matt. […] Read more…
