No More Dirty Looks Quarterly Subscription Box Review #NDL08

I used to subscribe to them–over a year ago–and after about 4 boxes (1 year) I cancelled. The value always seems to be low and never items that I cannot find cheaper and often at Target. One time, they sent an awful green/super scratchy wash cloth that was made in Korea with the threads falling apart and it stunk like chemicals when I opened it. Nothing natural about it. It was MAYBE worth 99 cents. And a small single use sample of an exfoliant and a small sample of lotion. That was it in the entire box. At that point I cancelled. I felt like I was throwing away $25. There are much better subscription boxes out there for natural beauty items in my opinion.

I wish it had a higher value as well. The brow gel can actually be purchased for $11 on Amazon, so the box contents can be purchased for $23. I have the EcoTools as well (purchased at Target). I love the site and read it every day, so was really disappointed in my first experience with subscribing to the box. I just expected something more.. special .. given the exceptional nature of NMDL.

I liked the box (just wish it had a little higher value). I already have the Ecotools brushes, so I’ll probably be gifting these. I really love the 100% brow gel! I recently bought the one in Brunette because I have medium-dark brown hair, but I actually like the Taupe color better! It gives my brows a more natural look vs the intense look I get with the Brunette color. The eye shadow is ok… I think my skin color is too light for it to show up on me, but I’ll still use it as a highlighter.

I didn’t get an email from Quarterly about the price increase… so now $50 every 3 months, right?
