I don’t subscribe to Onyx; they just send me a box on occasion to review, so I don’t end up getting one every month. What was in this month’s box? Read more

I would probably go with Glossybox or Kloverbox. Kloverbox is a natural, organic box and sometimes has household items like candles, but it is one of my favorites. I have gotten some fabulous beauty products from Kloverbox. Read more

Thanks! I thought about trying a little water with it, but I never got around to it. I’ll have to give it a try. Read more

I have heard that. Perhaps my sample was just dried out. Read more

They do ship late and I know they had some issues with getting the products on time this month. They send it to me a little early to make sure it is here in time for my column, but it doesn’t sound like any others have gone out yet. I hope they get them out soon. Read more

Thanks. Divorce definitely isn’t fun, but it should be over soon. Can’t wait for it to be finalized! I will have to check out 2.5% products. I can’t remember what percentage I have right now. Read more

If you want to try something other than Ipsy that has a lot of makeup, Boxycharm is probably the way to go. They have some skincare, of course, but they are heavier on the makeup. It is $21 a month. I got it for a while, but I personally prefer more skincare than makeup. Also, it seemed like every month, they would Read more

I actually just bought one of those special bonus boxes from Goodebox. It came in the mail a couple of days ago and I love it. I got the Feel Nourished, which I see is now sold out. I keep meaning to subscribe to it, but I only have so much room in my columns and I like the ones I have so much already and don’t want Read more

I check those out when I’m trying to find the products online, but it can be hard to find the exact same product. Thanks, though :). Read more

Since I only do one article a month now, I had to take a couple of boxes out so the article wouldn’t get too long. I still get Birchbox, but I don’t include it just because it’s the most well-known of the beauty boxes and I want to introduce people to some of the other boxes out there. I wish I had space for all the

I hear if you e-mail Ipsy and tell them you don’t do Facebook or Instagram or whatever, they will let you skip the wait. It is worth a try. I hope your Birchbox is better next month! Birchbox is okay, but it’s not my favorite. Some months are amazing, but most months are meh. Read more

That’s amazing. It’s the best feeling ever when you find a holy grail beauty product, isn’t it? I only tried it once, but maybe I will have to buy some. I’m 33 and have combination skin (very oily t-zone) and still break out a lot, especially around my period. I’ve been breaking out more than usual for the past six Read more

I asked about that and it sounds like they are. I would watch their page carefully as I’m sure that will sell out quickly once it’s up! Read more

Glad I could make your day better. I have so much fun doing this. Are you planning to subscribe to any boxes soon? Read more

Not creepy at all. Thank you so much. I love doing this. I wanted to try the stick perfume. It seems like everyone got a different scent of it, so I’m sure some are better than others. Read more

I liked the perfume I got, but I’m a little jealous of everyone with the stick perfumes. I wanted to give them a try. It seems like everyone has a different scent of the stick. I want to try them all! Read more

You’re very welcome. I love that snail stuff so much! Read more

I’ve tried 3B, another Korean subscription box, and that wasn’t bad. I keep meaning to try Mishibox, which is the newest Korean box on the scene (as far as I know — new boxes come out all the time, so there is probably a newer one out there I haven’t heard about), but I haven’t yet. If you give Mishibox a try, let me Read more

That is strange. Have you tried emailing them or posting something on their Facebook page? I hope it is all sorted out soon. I know how frustrating it can be! Read more
