Yahoo Lifestyle Jan is over – it's time to treat yourself to a beauty subscription box
Trying out the latest and greatest in beauty without the hassle of faffing around in store or trawling through beauty websites? Sounds like a dream, but also like something that would only exist in a parallel universe. But it’s not, it’s all accessible in the world of beauty subscription boxes.
Let us kindly introduce you to the best of beauty subscriptions – delivery services that sends the latest and greatest bits in beauty every month, without you having to do diddly-squat.
From polishes to vegan beauty essentials, there really is something out there for every beauty lover. If you’re new to the beauty game or are looking for a more guided route to your staple beauty regime, boxes like the LookFantastic box offer well-known brands from high street to high end.
As an introduction into the realm of beauty subscription boxes you might want to head to the much-loved GLOSSYBOX. With prices at just £13.50 per month (including post and packaging), you'll get a handful of personalised goodies (you can often pick the shade that suits you when it comes to lip and face products) and in many boxes you'll find full-size products!
There really is something for everyone in here, so go forth and subscribe!
GLOSSYBOX
One of the original subscription boxes, GLOSSYBOX offer an unrivalled mix of makeup, haircare and skincare. Each month you'll receive new products with some boxes worth over £50, which, considering prices start from £13.50, is a bargain. They're brilliant at including a big variety of products with previous boxes selling out in seconds. If that's not an indication that it's one of the best boxes in the biz, we don't know what is tbh.
Look Fantastic
We assumed LookFantastic would whip up a stellar beauty box, and they really came through. Being one of the biggest beauty websites going, you just know they've got all the best products. You'll find everything and anything you could ever want in here, with names like Nuxe, Elemis, Olaplex, HairGain and Paula's Choice to name a few.
AKT The Deodorant Balm
If you've converted to the natural deodorant life, we're big fans of AKT over here – and not just for the funky packaging. Formulated without the common nasties ~ aluminium ~ found in your standard antiperspirant, the cream does a stellar job at keeping B.O. at bay and gives your pits a fresh, fruity aroma. If you sign up to its subscription service, you'll receive a new tube every six weeks for £17.85 – that's 15% off!
Skin + Me The Daily Doser
Taking all the confusion out of crafting your own skincare routine, Skin + Me is the subscription service that delivers your bespoke treatment plan directly to your door. Whether you're fighting acne or dealing with pigmentation, you start the service with a 1:1 consultation with one of Skin + Me's medical experts to discuss what your skin goals are. From there, the team formulates your own 'Daily Doser' – a specialised formula – that delivers to your door every month. What's even easier, it dispenses just the right amount of product, so there's zero faff or fuss when it comes to your skincare routine.
Beauty Pie
Alright, so this isn't technically a subscription box but a beauty subscription service you need to know about. The concept is almost too good to be true. Essentially, the members club gives you access to luxury beauty products, some which can reach triple-figures, at a major discount.
How, you ask? The service costs £10 a month, and this gives you access to hundreds of skincare, makeup, hair and fragrance items at hugely discounted prices – kinda like Costco for beauty. And the best part, so many of the products are formulated by the same companies as luxury items, so you really are getting the best for less.
Lush Kitchen
Lush fans, rejoice! You can now get your hands on beauty bits straight from the Lush Kitchen to your door with this monthly subscription box. For every box, the contents is based on subscriber votes from a monthly menu (plus one or two surprise goodies chosen by the Lush team).
Wild
Keen to convert to natural deodorant? Wild is a fuss-free subscription box that delivers effective natural deo. The packaging is super cute and the scents are beyond good (for autumn they had a limited edition toffee apple scent!). Flexible subs start at just £12 where you can customise how frequently you need refills and how many you want. It's a really effective deodorant too – trust us, we've braved a spin class with it!
Curls Club
Ever wanted to replicate the haircare routine of your favourite curly-haired beauty influencers? Now you can! This new hair-themed beauty box is taken over by a curly guru each month and is filled with their full-sized product picks for you to try. From Boucleme to Imbue, there's some real natural hair faves in the mix.
Birchbox
UK's No.1 beauty box, Birchbox pride themselves on tailored beauty treats. You create a personal profile, and they will select products they think you'll love. Plus, each month you get to hand pick one element of your box, be it the design or a specific product, so there's no surprises, or things you need to palm off to friends and family.
