Buying fashion magazines or being loyal subscribers to the likes of Glamour, Elle et al. often means additional little freebies to try out new brands. Many times, your Nails Inc nail polishes have come from as a freebie in your Glamour magazine, or the Balance Me face masks will have come as part of Elle. What if you could get a surprise box of these freebies each month?
With a monthly subscription of around £12 each month there are a few companies floating around offering these little boxes of goodies with tasters of different brands. Wrapped up nice little surprises, they are sent to your door each month and you get to try out brands and fashions without spending a fortune.
A favourite is mylittlebox.co.uk. For only £13 (including P&P) you can get little themed boxes sent to your door. Previous boxes have included the ‘Cosy box’ which included a knitted jumper, Essie nail polish, a mug, magazine, make up, a wheat bag neck warmer. You can’t help but get excited by the thought of the little package of fashion inspired treats for only £11 per box.
Alternatively, you could sign up for glossybox.co.uk and receive a small box of tailored-to-the-month designer make-up brands and accessories. At £10 (+P&P) this is designed more for those who want to get their hands on the latest make-up items quickly.
If you want something a little more tailored and which comes every other month (hence less expensive), then latestinbeauty.com is the box for you! With sample sized treats and the ability to customise from £1 this will likely benefit you the most. Plus, they also have collaborations with Glamour and Heart FM to give you the best beauty edit boxes recommended by their beauty teams.
