Beauty subscription boxes are all the rage these days and we can totally see why. First, you get hand-picked beauty products by experts in the field, then you get to try stuff that otherwise you would've never looked at, and all of it comes to your door step on schedule - like a surprise gift that keeps on giving.

I recently discovered FabFitFun and even more recently GlossyBox, so now I can talk about both. First of all, let me tell you that I don't consider myself a great beauty expert, I don't keep up with the latest trends, and don't spend hours shopping for supplies, but I like makeup and grooming products like the next girl.

I decided that subscription beauty boxes are my new obsession. I totally love this idea of letting someone who knows beauty industry better than me, pick some products for me and let me try before ordering full size.

If you have ever tried beauty subscription service of any kind or even if you haven't, you might have heard about Macy's Beauty Box and GlossyBox. I did more than just hear - I tried them both, just one time for each, and would like to give you my first impression about both.

Welcome to two little beauty boxes, my friends! I am on a beauty subscription box bender lately and today would like to compare Birchbox and Glossybox. While the two boxes are not identical, they are quite similar.
