Hey Guys!
I was so excited to receive my first Luxe Box in the mail this past Monday. I first heard about Luxe Box by Loose Button when I stumbled across a YouTube video describing a "'Birchbox' for Canadian Residences". I was bummed out when I found out Birchbox doesn't ship to Canadian addresses, so imagine how excited I was to find that there was a company, like Birchbox, that would ship to my address! So far I'm very happy with the service. When I signed up, Loose Button sent me an email saying my Luxe Box would be sent out the week of August 15th, and wouldn't you know it, my Luxe Box ARRIVED on the 15th! I noticed later in my e-mail inbox that I had a tracking number sent to me that day, but there was no need to track the package because it arrived on Day 1.
For those of you who don't know the service Loose Button provides, it is a monthly service which you can sign up for each month, or pay for a yearly subscription (which is the path I chose to take) that sends you a box full of random Deluxe samples from various companies. This is a great way for beauty junkies, like myself, to try out new products without having to splurge on the full-size and to try out products you wouldn't otherwise have picked out for yourself.
Companies you may see in your next Luxe Box include:
Clinque
Ahava
Benefit
Elizabeth Grant
Myfaceworks
Principessa
Stila
SK-II
Christian Dior
RMK
Lancome
Shu Uemura
MAC
Anna Sui
Shiseido
Laneige
Suisse Programme
Bobbi Brown
Balmshell
NARS
OPI
Chanel
Cellnique
Lise Watier
Consonant
Dermalogica
As for the contents of the box, I've very happy with the samples that they provided me. I like that they gave me samples for the face, lips, body, fragrance and even jewelry! I had all my bases covered!
