From the Lab is a monthly beauty box that sends you luxury brand beauty products at a drastically lower cost — months before they’re released to the US market.
From the Lab gets its products from some of the same beauty labs that luxury brands develop their lines in. However, they’re able to offer them at a lower cost since they don’t do extensive marketing campaigns or worry about pretty packaging. This also allows them to get the products to you as early as 18 months before they hit the US market. [read more…]
Bulu Box is a monthly subscription box that introduces you to new health, nutrition, and weight loss products. Each box contains 4 to 5 premium samples from a wide range of top brands. Since supplements and weight loss products can be pretty pricey, this is a great box for those who like to “try before you buy”.
There are two different box themes to choose from: The “regular” box and the weight loss box. Both boxes are just $10 a month with free shipping. There’s also a great reward points program that makes it easy (and cheap) to purchase more products. — Each box usually has about 5 products, and when you review them you’ll get 50 points (10 for each product). 50 points = $5.00 to spend on your favorite products in their online shop!
I was recently sent August’s Bulu Box (weight loss) for review. Here’s what was inside… [read more…]

I was recently sent a sample of their cases for review, so let’s see what I got! [read more…]

Send Me Gluten Free is a brand new subscription service that offers a monthly box of gluten-free goodies delivered right to your door!
While the monthly box may be new, the folks behind Send Me Gluten Free have been heavily involved in the gluten free community for quite some time. They’ve been hosting Gluten & Allergen Free Expos since 2007 and consider this new venture to be sort of like “an expo in a box” for those who aren’t able to attend their expos. — An easy alternative way to discover great new gluten-free products in the convenience of their own homes.

Sudsy Box is a new subscription box that sends you 3 full-sized handmade bars of soap every other month. They also include a little extra “surprise gift” in every box (lip balm, bath salts, etc.). Awesome!

Ecocentric Mom is a great subscription box service that features mom & baby products that are eco-friendly, natural, organic, and often vegan-friendly. There are 3 different box options to choose from. As always, I received the “Mom & Baby” box. The other two options available are a “Mom-to-Be Box” and just a plain ol’ “Mom” box.
Subscriptions are $24/every-other-month, but they often have discount codes available that are usually good for the life of your sub. (I was able to score a discounted subscription not too long ago and now my boxes are only $18/month. Not bad!)
