NEW! Glossybox: November 2014

  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…

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…

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…

A Very Special Thanksgiving Blog

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…
