LIB do so many themed boxes and you can choose to just buy one rather than subscribe monthly. I'm not short of beauty products or I'd probably be tempted, but generally I'd prefer to put my cash towards the one thing I really want. I do think they make a gorgeous gift though, either as a one off or subscription. Oh I've also heard great things about My Little Box, a French one that's a bit more quirky. <br /><br />Nic xNic StrawberryBlondehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05402011611591634516[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1309613786929270593.post-77974863818994188532015-08-05T12:15:55.797+01:002015-08-05T12:15:55.797+01:00I've always been intrigued by these as I just ...I've always been intrigued by these as I just love getting that knock on the door with a delivery for me. But I'm not a big beauty kind of girl - I spend on clothes instead. But that little tip at the end is good - I like the idea of the "advance" reviews which at least means you know what you are in for.

Some of them have 40% off at the moment. I always get the British Beauty Blogger boxes when they're available, got a great Clinique and a Givenchy box in the past year. My Little Paris was interesting to begin with but I prefer knowing contents in advance rather than building up a useless collection of nail polishes and face creams...I have enough of those already!

I'm generally a beauty bargain kinda gal and wouldn't have a clue where to begin with some of these more luxe brands so this sounds like the ideal way of trying to see what you like! Out of the 2 I would have plumped for the July glossy box....too bad I missed the boat for lasts months! Hope I get some good products when I take the plunge and make an order! xxMichelle Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00772398808846950425[email protected]
