The product selection is always worth at least £50 - often more - and features picks from all of the top-rated and most popular beauty brands on the market. For anyone who’s keen to discover new brands and try out new products, Glossybox is a great subscription box choice as monthly hauls regularly feature new and emerging brands and their products, along with cult favourites.
With a price tag of £13.50 a month, or even cheaper for annual subscribers, Glossybox is one of the more affordable beauty boxes on offer - something that isn’t reflected in its product selection.
For subscribers, monthly product selection is based on two factors: the theme of the box and each subscriber’s personal profile that takes into account things like skin and hair type.
