Honorable Beauty Box Mentions
These beauty boxes may not contain the highest end brands found in salons and spas, but they do contain the more expensive brands that each store carries, and they are super inexpensive!
Amazon
Amazon offer various beauty boxes are essentially free after credit (i.e. pay $7.99 and get $7.99 Amazon credit on future beauty products). Buy one or all! Check out what we received in our Amazon beauty box.
Target
Each month, Target launches at least one new themed beauty box with free shipping. Check back every month to order.
Walmart
Pay only $5 for delivery for a box that comes out four times a year (each season).
Side Note: Checkout our comparison of Target vs Walmart here.
Can't use all the products that you've received in your beauty box? Resell unwanted, unused items on Ebay! I've had great luck selling the beauty products that I (or my girls) won't use, sometimes for even more than what I paid for the whole box!
