Favorite beauty subscription box?

[persa]

Since we're rehashing old threads, haha sa...

I'm thinking of doing a subscription box (it's Christmas every month!) but can't decide which one. I looked at the last threads on the subject but thought I'd see what everyone is liking or not liking these days after a couple more months.

I'm more into makeup and skincare and I like nice brands but I also want to discover new stuff.

I'm looking at birchbox and ipsy but I'm open to hearing about others. There's glossy box and beauty box 5 also, right? And pop sugar is the really expensive one? Is it worth it?

Glossybox and Popsugar

I unsubscribed from Birchbox and Ipsy, but i preferred Ipsy out of those two.

I get three and I love them all.

Popsugar is kind of pricey but I always find a use for the stuff in it it seems like. Or, you can always give some things away as gifts! I just like it because the items are different - not all makeup and beauty but some other things too.

I get ipsy and I have liked it too. I end up using most of what they send me. It is cheap, only $10 and totally worth it IMO.

I also get one called star box by star looks and it is all makeup. The makeup is nice quality and usually full size. I think that one is $15.

Good luck, once you do one you will want to do more - it gets to be an addiction!

I have Birchbox. Every time feel like canceling they win me over with a couple good boxes, and I like their points system.

I had Ipsy and cancelled after three months because the bags were such a disappointment.

I recently cancelled Birchbox. The samples I was getting were mostly foil packets. Not what I would consider 'deluxe'.
I also had popsugar for a little while, I liked it, but it was a little expensive.
I still get ipsy. The products are a good size and it seems worth the money to me. I got butter London in this months bag

I love popsugar but it's not necessarily a "beauty" subscription.

I got my first ipsy bag last month. I signed up because the last two bags were great (imo). But of course, the variations of the products I got were sucky and stupid and I'll like just get rid of everything. It's only $10/month so I'll probably stick it out a few months.

I cancelled my birchbox, and still get ipsy. I like it but considering another option, maybe pop sugar.

I had Birchbox for awhile, but I kept getting the same things over and over, so I cancelled it. I just looked at Popsugar and I really like it, but $35 is a lot per month for stuff I don't know if I'll like.

I have birchbox. My last 4 boxes have been really great and I've been really happy. I also like the points system for reviewing you box and then using them towards items in the store. I've snagged some great deals that way.

This exactly. Ipsy sucked, IMO. 

I just recently cashed in my points at Birchhbox and got a full size bottle of Philosophy Purity and a Anastasia Brow Wiz pencil for "free". It is definitely worth it.

FYI, glossy box does points as well, and you can redeem for free boxes.
