Beauty Boxes

Recently I came across the words "Beauty Box," apparently you can spend $15 -$25 a month and some companies send you beauty samples to try out O_o and apparently this has been happening for quite some time (at least two years), right under my nose. So I say to myself, "I need to be all up in this"  I came across a couple but unfortunately were available to USA residence only. I felt let down, was there no one in Australia that did the same thing? As I was watching some makeup reviews on YouTube I came across someone who was reviewing beauty boxes in Australia... So excited! she was reviewing Four (in no particular order): Lust Have It, Bella Box, Glossy Box and I Love This Box, unfortunately I Love This Box And Glossy Box have been discontinued (Glossy merged with Lust Have It).

Their introductions (taken from their websites)

Since June there has been a new contender, Violet Box @ $22.95 PM it is a bit more costly than the others, I originally decided to "just give it a go" thinking I would cancel this after the first box but I LOVE this box. So far the money has been worth it and each month they have managed to deliver exciting new items and great discounts.
