      I cancelled all. Not worth it. Best thing so far is Boxycharm lets you shop drop shop and mega drop shop without an active subscription so I get to buy the exact I want. Only subscription I have right now is AIA beauty bundle which I also skip months if I dont want the products.

      I only had Boxy and FFF until the end of February. I canceled Boxy and less than a week later I got my last drop ship order. It was missing an item so I contacted customer service. They gave me charms. I looked and I couldn’t use them without a current subscription. So I had over 10,000 charm points that I couldn’t use and a missing product that I paid for. I sent a response saying this and never heard back. This week I sent a second email and still haven’t heard back. So now my temporary cancellation because I had too much is now permanent.

      I canceled boxycharm over a year ago. It felt like they were not following very good ethics (imho). Same with Ipsy. I was at one time getting Lola beauty box but that is no longer a thing either.

    i cancelled my boxycharm 6 months ago and do not regret it AT ALL. My issue was seeing brands i never heard of with a markup of the price. Also, it started to be very skincare heavy. You cannot try all those things at once and not only that...im very picky with my skincare so boxycharm never served a good pirpose for me when i am only getting one or two makeup products. I figured I can take that $25 and spend it on something i actually want

    I got rid of boxy charm about two years ago. My make up collection got big enough to a point where I wanted to start buying the things that I wanted instead of getting random things I wasn’t going to use. I do still utilize the boxy charm mega drop shop every once in a while

    When I was first getting into makeup, I loved the subscription boxes to play with different products. Then everything went skincare heavy and I just don't enjoy "playing" with skincare. Then Ipsy bought Boxycharm and everything is the same now. Same kind of products between the boxes and so skincare heavy. Skincare is such a personalized thing because we all have different skin concerns. Subscription boxes devolved into me acquiring a lot of waste and guilt. The boxes have basically been a ticket into the store for "extra" access items for better options.

    • @KrystalKBeauty

    Premium is now a stand alone box. You can get it regardless of being subscribed to base or not! When premium first came out instead of charging for base first. A lot of people got charged for premium first so they canceled base before ever being charged. Those are the ones that only wanted premium of course! 💝🤗💝

    The last three Ipsy/Boxy boxes I got, I ended up gifting everything. My last two FFF boxes are sitting with almost all of the products - I haven't even tried to put stuff away. So, I've canceled Boxy & FFF, and switched Ipsy to just the base bag every other month. Whenever my Walmart box comes, I actually enjoy it. Lol

    I still love FFF - like you said, I like the frequency and the variety of different products. It fits for me - fun, diverse products, full size items, and more items, shipped less frequently. Definitely agree on needing to an annual member to really enjoy it!
    I quit Ipsy a couple years ago - then they sucked me back in. That lasted a few months, and I just quit again. I was getting too many things that didn’t match my quiz, I didn’t need, and so many I’ve never heard of (and they weren’t great). Just not worth it.

(This I haven’t revealed yet 😉) and there are some other huge life changes in the works for me that I do want to document. You’ll see that pop up in the future!
      I am on tiktok myself so I guess I don’t really bring it over here to UA-cam but that is definitely an idea!!
      It’s definitely hard. I built my channel on reviewing products, but that content seems to be a dying art.

    I subscribe to BoxyCharm Base box only. I have to say, the past 3 boxes, for me, have been impressive. Every item I received, i was excited to try. In the past, I had been selected to do online surveys regarding products you would like to see in the boxes and any additional suggestions I could recommend. Well, I emphasized the fact that I did NOT want to receive any more eyeshadow pallets. Every month I would receive a new one. I recently brought some of the pallets to my job for my coworkers to choose from because I would never use them. So maybe they actually listened to my advice. I have considered discontinuing my subscription, but I like what I have received recently. I am 44 years old, so I am all about skin care and keeping my skin looking youthful. A lot of the products I use, I have received in one of my boxes. And have repurchased them in their online store. I made a purchase just this week. So unless my boxes start to take a downward turn in products, I will keep subscribing but I can't rule out canceling either.

    Ok. I look forward to my Boxycharm box every single month. I don’t choose my items because I like to be surprised. People actually are actually reviewing these products even though you don’t see it. This video irritates me because you are generalizing people who get these boxes and are extremely excited about them. Who cares if they are “overflow” products! Idk this video seriously rubbed me the wrong way. Most likely an unpopular opinion, but that’s my opinion. Just a very annoying and almost dare I say judgmental video.
