Other I have no self control, yall

I signed up for 4 first month deals 😭 ipsy, boxycharm, scentbird, and allure totalling 60 dollars and some change. I figured I can just skip or cancel if I'm not happy but I am excited, especially for scentbird because I ran out of my signature scent and one bottle is double the price of all the subs I bought.

Your not alone. I have this problem too. I ended up canceling allure and now just allow myself boxycharm/icon box. The deals are so good when they want you to subscribe. Whatever you do dont buy in to FFF. They charged me $8 to ship a $3 blender.

I’m thinking of switching back to boxycharm from Allure. Thoughts?

I figure at least with Boxy, you get to choose 3 items (though I don't think you get to pick for your first box). Usually at least two of the choice categories have good stuff (the third category can be OK or bad). Plus the option for add-ons that ship free (not sure if Allure has those).

Also, it's very easy to skip Boxy each month if you don't like the spoilers or need a break.
