What Are You Surprised You Haven’t Seen in a Subscription Box Yet?

Everyone has such GREAT ideas! My favorites are the Donna Karan (or other high end ) deodorant. The lunch bag. The travel mug. The Jo Malone products. The refillable pen. The quality notebook, fancy teas and chocolates and of course jewelry too,always jewelry:)

I get a ton of mascaras in beauty boxes, but they are never waterproof. So, I would love to see some more waterproof or water resistant mascaras.

I would like a box for older women. 40to55 styles and products just for them.
Other items. Coukd include a quality luggage tag
Fresh flowers
Quality craft kit for home
Quality well known brand if jewerly a coupon to purchase your selection
Movie tickets
Massage coupon or spa coupon
Tea

I have never received a brush roll (empty) and I could really use one!

I’ve got an eclectic list.

First, I’d love to receive more luxury products – examples could be: a Diptyque candle, Laundress or upscale laundry products, or Jo Malone products.

I second the toner and universal lip liner idea. I also would love to receive tinted moisturizer/sunscreen and self-tanner items. Finally, no-show black socks for working out.

Love reading everyone’s ideas!

My suggestions are kinda boring: but more face toner would be nice! I absolutely loved the Dermalogica one in the FFF Winter box. Plus I have yet to receive any lip liners in my subs (BB, Allure, Target, Beauty Fix), but I have plenty of lipsticks, balms, glosses, etc.

One of those candles with the jewlery inside. That would be cool!

I would love a bath box.
– high-end bath salts/oil/bubble soak – for 4 – 8 baths (enough for a month.)
– scented candles
– loofahs and natural sea sponges
– super soft egyptian cotton wash cloths/towels (in neutral colors)
– cute hair wraps
– moisturizing socks (for afterward)
– bon bons/truffles/anything dark chocolate
– guilty-pleasure chick lit novels
– a do not disturb sign for the bathroom door
–

OK who is going to call PSMH and pitch a three box “guest residency” for all of our MSA curators?!?! I WOULD BUY THAT!!!

I would love to see a necklace organizer, foundation (skin-tone specific), quality placemats, iTunes gift card, coffee mug warmer, coaster holder, shoe deodorizer, and I like the ideas already posted of jewelry cleaner/cleaner tool, desk organizer, car freshener, and luxury deodorant.

I didn’t read all comments so this may be mentioned, but I would love to see a box that featured up and coming cleaning products/ normal household items. I get a box for just about everything. I don’t even necessarily mean organic/green products. Average household names like Clorox..gain…windex…bounty..charmin

I would like to see someone offer a rotating subscription box service. Every month there would be multiple boxes to choose from. Make up, nail polishes, facial care, bath products, food/snacks, socks, men’s, children’s, etc. we could choose a price range or pay after you’ve chosen. My worst problem with subscription boxes is that it doesn’t take long for me to get saturated with the items. I have more lipstick and mascara than I will ever use.
How about a lefty box? Scissors, manual can openers, and countless other items that are used regularly and taken for granted by righties are difficult for lefties to use.
I would also like a k beauty sub, and a pedicure box would be nice.

Okay, this is a plea for not so much contents but style. I am feeling a little deflated after the March Popsugar box reveal and the FabFitFun spoilers so far, so excuse me if this sounds whiny:

Could someone, some magical fairy person, create a lifestyle box for, let’s say, plain-living, not-so-girly, sarcastic women who wear a lot of black?

I feel like PSMH is for Barbie and I’m her creepy little sister who would rather die than wear a teal tassel necklace or anything beige EVER. I would really enjoy a similarly high value lifestyle box if it had a very modern feel and maybe just a dash of goth/punk, but there is NOTHING like that! I’m not talking Hot Topic, more like Skandicrush, lots of black and white and grey, geometric and minimalist designs. And mostly consumables! I don’t like a lot of clutter, but I love useful things. So, my perfect box: one modern home decor item, a swanky, non-brown makeup item, a clever stationary item or office supply, something chocolatey or otherwise sweet, a low-key, modern accessory (solid color scarves, gloves, plain silver jewlery), and something to experience, like an off-beat book or film. PSMH for weirdos. Please, please, someone. I would give you my money!

1. An affordable home decor box

2. More color customization in boxes

3. Eye shadow that’s not blah-colored (e.g. “Bare” “natural” “base” “neutral”)

4. An embroidery box that’s less than $20 a month

5. Toddler arts and crafts (ages 2-3)

I feel like there aren’t any options for my teenage sports-loving son.
Everyone in my house has sub-box mail – from beauty boxes, tea boxes, snack boxes, pre-school boxes – and even my other gamer teen son has many options. But I don’t see any good options for fun mail for him- something for the sports fan would be great!

I would love to see more office supplies. I swear I have a weird addiction to the stuff. I think it is great to get new items that are practical. Like cute post-it notes, a pretty pen, more of the 3 x 5 Fleur de Lis type note cards we received from Luxor Box.

Would also like to receive a wireless charging pad for a cell phone, a bluetooth wireless keyboard. It would be great if sub boxes like Popsugar and Fabfitfun would ask “Android” or “Apple” in their profile so that they could send out electronics accessories that are applicable to each individual subscriber.

Haven’t seen enough electronics organization items in sub boxes. Either the elastic banded boards, a zippered / hard-sided earphones case, other kind of cable management system. I actually even like those velcro straps you can attach to a cord to allow you to wrap them up neatly.

I know there will be duplicate with others, but here is my wish list:

– fold-able/pack-able sunhat
– universal lip liner (I have received many red or bold lipstick colors and I wish they included this type of product, so someone like me will be less scared to try bright lips.
– ballet flat shoes (a voucher redeemable for your choice of color/size with free shipping)
– brush cleaning items
– toner/essence
– cleansing balm
– quality notebook
– jewelry cleaning items
– high quality top/base nail coat and nail polish remover
– flower vouchers (I think LLB did before and I thought it was great once in a while)
– either laptop bag or backpack (I am having a hard time finding a laptop backpack that are lightweight and roomy, but has PC section and also look feminine/stylish… I will love some recommendations here!)

This is a fun thread!

I would love to get a subscription that had only strong scented candles and melt as well other smell-goods for the home plus a couple of makeup samples too. I would drop all and get this because it is all thing I love in one.

Most of my ideas have been mentioned here, but I’m chiming in anyway! I’d love to see more of the following:
– Brush cleansers
– Refillable rollerball pens
– Shoe pads (the kind to put in your shoes to keep your heels from slipping, etc.); This may be because my feet are currently killing me from wearing heels all day!
– Manicure set (I need new clippers!)
– Decent to-go coffee cup
– A large (dishwasher-safe and not super-cheap) water cup with lid and straw
– Nice compact mirror
– Rice/oil blotting papers
– Lingerie washing bag
– Since I hope we all use them every day, maybe a toothbrush? Seems boring, but I’d rather have that at this point than another dry shampoo or mascara
– On that note – a toothbrush sanitizer (like Steripod)
– Purse hook (the kind you can use at a restaurant to keep from putting your purse on the floor or the back of your chair)
– Make-up organizer
– Frankly, any kind of organizer to help store my massive stash of beauty-box products

I haven’t yet seen a box for teachers. We love our office supplies and thee are so many other goodies that would be fun to receive in a monthly box.

*A complete travel set of skin care, or bath items
*make up organizers
*seasonal décor items
*seasonal hostess gifts
*how about quarterly gardening boxes

We should start this on the forum, excuse me if it has already been done… I’m typing this before going to check myself 😉

Honestly, I love stuff for the kitchen, not food, but little gadgets. I love trying new ones, and can have the time of my life in the kitchen supplies areas of stores. If there was a box like that I would be in heaven!

I would LOVE to see a Z Palette, since so many boxes send singles or samples of things, if you had a large z-palette to de-pot them into it would make for a much more organized collection 🙂

I don’t wear make up, so I’d like a women’s lifestyle box that does not include it as I always give it away.

I’d like to see:
– chopstick rests
– mini sauce bowls
– tea towels
– natural sunscreen
– natural sterling silver jewelry cleaner
– letter opener
– sterling silver earrings
– pretty looking thumb drive or thumb drive necklace
– inspirational card (eg. life is what you make it, etc.)
– card games
