What is your single most favorite subscription box discovery of all time?

Welcome, @pamelaburns2!!

@pamelaburns2, do you have a favorite liquid eyeliner?? I used to wear this Maybelline one that came in a little pot with a brush, but I think it’s discontinued :cry:

Plus, I still need @Jessica-MSA & @Caryn to come over and give me a make-up tutorial :nerd_face:

I think depending on the day it would change slightly (rotating between a top 5ish) but right now it would definitely be the heated eye masks that came in a pink Seoul mask over two years ago. Now they’re more accessible thanks to pop
masks making them + Ipsy add ons making them reasonably affordable, but for a while I was just buying 20 at a time and shipping them straight from Korea. I wish I had one on my face right now instead of being at my desk on this first Monday back to work :disappointed:

Sunday Riley sub box. Too bad they stopped it for “covid” and never started it back up again. :sob: 2nd favorite is Cloth & Paper and my 3rd would be FabFitFun.

ETA- Yeah, I totally didn’t read that all the way :woman_facepalming: Oh well, too many to list out anyways.

This is a hard one, especially those of us with lots of subscriptions haha. As far as candles, the Apotheke tobaccco blossom candle from PopSugar and the Honey and the moon travel candle from the Margot Elena box. I’m sad to say the Apotheke one has been discontinued! For beauty, my favorite cleansers have all been oils and balms I received out of the New Beauty boxes (both from the normal subscription and limited edition boxes).

@tinacara that Apotheke tobacco candle sounds right up my alley! I just treated myself to a new candle over the holiday:

No. 4 is the fragrance. I feel like I may need to invest in the Margot Elena box, everyone raves about it :revolving_hearts:

Margot Elena is pretty special but even when it is close to being on the chopping list, I never do it because I don’t want to get on the wait list when I inevitably change my mind, haha!

I LOVED that Apotheke Tobacco Blossom candle. I’m also a fan of their Charcoal candle (but I preferred the Tobacco Blossom).

I love Araceli Ojos. It’s a liquid liner in a pen. I find it easier than the ones in the pot. They have limited color options though. I’ve swapped for it and bought them on Amazon. I like that they stay on for a long time.

The Juara Candlenut Body Butter is probably THE best subscription box find, as it’s not likely something I ever would have known about on my own had a sub box not introduced it to me. I adore the scent and will never be without. It’s followed closely by the Lalicious shower oil, which is almost equally glorious.

@bellium, I love that shower oil so much!

That Lalicious shower oil is my FAV sub box find! Every time I travel, I have to take it with me and it doubles as a shaving oil. I have so many close seconds - either those lids from Causebox or the Volition cream from FFF. I have integrated so many great sub box items into my daily routine that I can’t remember how I could walk around without my hair towel before.

I can’t believe i didn’t mention my travel Ember mug from the BREO anniversary box. I’m obsessed with it and even recently got the car charging cup holder insert! I have such a love/hate relationship with that subscription box though…:woman_facepalming:

Gosh, I can’t narrow down to one item. Just the exposure to so many brands of which I was completely unaware of their existence. I don’t go to many brick and mortar stores…and have never been in a Sephora or Ulta. So, subscription boxes gave me the opportunity to experience higher end products that I never would have seen in a Walmart or Walgreens trip! I guess my biggest thrill has been discovering K-beauty products!

Years ago one our boxes introduced me to the Swell bottle! I love it!! I have given them out as gifts since then!

Mine’s kinda dumb, but Spongelles. I’m kinda obsessed with them. Oh wait, can I have two? Also the Tula face cleanser. Both by way of FFF.
