The Detox Box Subscription Review – January 2018

Ya, even though I’m swimming in skincare products, I have to admit I do favor the skincare or body care boxes to that rare hair care box (even though it was a great brand to try!). I remember they did a makeup box with Modern Minerals in 2016, and they got a ton of heat for that, so I think that’s why they now do them as a one-time purchase. But, having said that, I bought a 6-month subscription to the Detox Box, and I think it would be kind of cool if they did feature a brand not solely focused on facial skincare. I’m thinking it’s easy for them to focus on skincare though because it makes it a lot easier to reach that $90 promised value. 🙂

You’re too cute. 🙂 <– I'm actually blushing here. haha

Gosh, that's kind of a hard one. With both, you get to experience high-end/luxe green beauty brands, and it definitely seems like they both offer the latest & greatest thing from each brand, even before they're sold at full retail to the public.

I think they both have their own "limitations" in that the Detox Box will only feature brands sold at The Detox Market (but they do have quite an extensive selection of brands), whereas Beauty Heroes can make collaborations with brands like IBE brands that aren't sold at The Detox Market. As for Beauty Heroes, you have to subscribe for 3 months at a time, whereas with the Detox Box you can come & go on a monthly basis (however, that's at the higher $50/box price vs. BH's averaged $38(?)/box price). Plus, I sort of feel like they both offer the same value, and depending on the subscription plan you purchase, they could be at different prices.

Also, even though I know the Detox Box has been solely focusing on skincare for their first few boxes, there's always the possibility that they could feature one of their makeup, body, hair care, or wellness brands as well, so there's still the chance of greater product variety. While Beauty Heroes also mostly focuses on skincare, they have featured some brands that focus on haircare & body care in the past (just not often). They do have their makeup & wellness boxes, but those are sold separate from their monthly subscription boxes.

I'm sure I'm missing some other variables between the two boxes, but I guess it depends on what you're seeking out of the box. Personally, if I had to choose between the two, I'd go with Beauty Heroes, because I know I'll still be exposed to brands that The Detox Market sells, but chances are good that I'll be exposed to other brands that would never be featured in the Detox Box. Brand discovery is definitely one of my top reasons for subbing. 🙂

But, I'd love to hear others' takes on their top choices too!
