Taking a break from food for a day to talk cosmetics ...
I never used to like cosmetics or beauty products. When I was an adolescent, my mother ran The Body Shop in one of our local malls, and because beauty products were so readily available to me, I didn't value them. My mom no longer runs The Body Shop, and as I have gotten older and have had to pay for products myself, I have started to see their value. I still don't spend much on cosmetics, but I do like to play around with different brands etc. - it is fun! When I heard about Birch Box in the United States, I had to find something similar in Canada. Much to my surprise, I found numerous similar companies. I signed up for a few, the first being Luxe Box by Loose Button.

Luxe Box is a monthly subscription. For $12 a month you get a box of 4-5 deluxe beauty samples delivered to your door in a pretty box. The boxes are specifically designed for you (according to a beauty profile that you fill out), and the shipping is free. I have been blown away by the customer service of Loose Button, and I have been very happy with both my January and February boxes.
The first box I received was my January Luxe Box, with a bonus bath and body box thrown in!
It was loaded with about 8 perfume samples, a full size lip gloss, a full size 3 in 1 compact, a sample face cream, a razor, coffee, and sample shampoo and conditioners.
Each of the perfumes samples are of very expensive perfumes that I wouldn't want to buy without trying first. My favourite was Candy by Prada - amazing!
I couldn't wait for my February Luxe Box to arrive. I liked the red colour :-)
In this box I received 4 products to try.
If you are interested in Luxe Box they currently have a waiting list, but I can send you an invite by email if you'd like - just let me know! (Note: All opinions in this post are my own. I have received no free product from Luxe Box, and have no affiliation with them).
Do you subscribe to any beauty product boxes?
