One of the reasons why I stopped my beauty box subscriptions is that I was racking up a lot of products but, more so, I was racking up a lot of the same products. When I opened up April's Glossybox - great box design by the way - I couldn't help but groan spying yet another eyeliner and nail product. I think in every box I've received there's always an eyeliner and nail product... Like rabbits, is all I'm going to say!
As for the other products, the Lord & Berry lipstick pencil in shade "Kiss" made me look like a clown... (To be fair, for a lot of people this would be a great product to receive, but my lips are not my best feature - seriously - and because of that I just don't suit bright lipsticks/glosses that draw attention to them.)
The Astral face and body moisturiser has a really thick texture and clinical smell to it - no thank you - and the IDC scented garden country rose moisturiser had the opposite, a really watery texture, and it didn't smell nice either. It definitely didn't smell like roses. (I couldn't find a link for this brand or product any where, so even if I had loved it, I don't think I would actually have been able to buy it. Bizarre!)
All-in-all, this is the worst beauty box I've ever received. And, because of how the payment schedule worked out, I ended up paying for this box and not using my points to get this for free. Booooooo! I have a feeling that once I *do* get my free box this month, I won't be keeping my subscription rolling unless Glossybox knocks it out of the park. (And if I get another nail polish or eyeliner this month, I will scream!)
Are there any beauty boxes out there that you think are still worth subscribing to? Let me know! x
