Everyone always asks me, what my favorite subscription boxes are, so I thought I’d do a little breakdown on it. The real answer on what my favorite boxes are depends on the month. Some months I love ipsy. Some months I love Birchbox. I just don’t know which one I will like better until I get it that month! Luckily since I get a bunch of boxes every month to review (along with the ones I subscribe to on my own) I don’t have to necessarily pick, but if I had $100/month to spend on subscription boxes (*), here is what I’d get:
~PopSugar ($36/month): I have always been a huge PopSugar cheerleader and probably always will be. I love the different categories they use, the high quality, on trend products and they provide a great bang for your buck (boxes retail value are > $100). I just love them!
~Citrus Lane ($19/month): Citrus Lane might not always be my favorite baby box, but they also rarely disappoint me. They send high quality brands, up and coming products and things that my little guy will use!
~Birchbox ($9/month): Some people prefer ipsy and some people prefer Birchbox and I am generally more of a Birchbox fan. They have a giant variety of brands they use and their point system for reviews cannot be beat.
~Nerd Block Jr.: ($19.99/month): This one is L’s favorite at the moment. He loves all of it, but gets so so excited when they have Minecraft stuff inside!
~Wantable Intimates ($36/month): I’d have to skip this one every other month to stay within the $100, but they make that easy to do online. I love the loungewear and other items they send so this would make the cut.
I came up just a tad over limit at $101.99 (I counted Wantable at $18/month since I would get it every other month), but I thought I did pretty well! I was this close to swapping Wantable for GLOSSYBOX, but I already had one makeup box in there so I wanted to give it a little variety! I believe I did this a while ago and put together the boxes I would spend $100 on and I know my answers have changed, but that is to be excepted since tastes change, needs change, etc.
Now it’s your turn! What are your favorite boxes? If you had $100/month, what boxes would you spend it on and why? And who wins the Birchbox / ipsy battle for you? Or does it depend on the month like it does for me?
