Recently we were talking about things we spend money on and he said, "That's your hobby and I have mine" so he's pretty good about it. The thing is, he doesn't have a hobby that costs as much as my beauty boxes cost all together. He's just sweet. I do feel kind of bad because they really do add up, and I'm getting a little oversampled out. But the thrill of "maybe next month something amazing will come through that I really want to try" and the ability to get so much more value for my money than just the $10, $12, $15 or $21 the boxes cost keeps me in the game. Just when I think I'm going to cull one of the subs out, they do something to redeem themselves. I thought for sure The Look Bag was on the chopping block but this month's offerings are great! Beauty Box 5 will probably go, I've been disappointed by that one more than once and I think Birchbox Man might go too, because he didn't use the stuff last month except for the socks and this month's box is crazy, no way he'll use one of the big items, totally not his style. I'd rather take that $20 and in three months buy him something he'd really use and appreciate than gamble for him. But for me, half the fun is in the what ifs, the speculation, the talk, the sampling and finding treasures in places I'd never look elsewhere. I'm dying to know what's in the first for pay Glossybox USA. Who's going to be the first to post their Glossybox?
