GLOSSYBOX USA September 2012 - GLOSSYBOX Review

It' been a few months since I'm subscribed to GLOSSYBOX ($21/mo), and they certainly impress me every single month! 

I'm all about deals and steals. GLOSSYBOX is probably the best thing i've discover in 2012. I've try MyGlam ($10/mo - piece of crap!) and Birchbox ($10/mo - better than MyGlam but still not worth my money) for a good while before I unsubscribed. I felt like my money went down the drain with these two monthly subscription sites. 

I first heard of GLOSSYBOX through Youtube, but that was way before GLOSSYBOX launch in the US. I guess I entered their US launch giveaway and all of a sudden, I got an email from GLOSSYBOX said that I won the FIRST US GLOSSYBOX! (of course, i double and triple checked their email, website, link, etc to make sure it was not a scam HAHA)

The first GLOSSYBOX was great, not only cuz I got it for free but the products were great. Got a few full size products in the box, BUT i want wait and see if they will keep up with the size and quality of the box before I commit. Also, because I was still subscribed to Birchbox at the time and I still wanted to give Birchbox a few months before I call it a quit.

GLOSSYBOX continue to impress me every month and I'm now a fan! yay!!! haha. I can't wait till next month's box! woohooo

It may seem like im bashing myglam and birchbox earlier, but these are my honest opinions. GLOSSYBOX has its down sides too, that is the shipment takes forever (on average 2-3 weeks!) and it is $21/mo compare to most other monthly subscription sites. to make it worse, CA residents have to pay sales tax! ($23.05 after tax lol) this is unheard of! (since when monthly subscription services charge tax?!)

Afterall, I still think GLOSSYBOX is worth it, even at $23.05 per month. I get to try out a ton of goodies without breaking the bank.
