Glossybox October 2012

I have stopped my subscription for the Glossybox. The reason behind this is that they have risen the price of the subscription from $15.00CAD to now $21.00CAD and I don't feel that it is a reasonable increase.  I do love the items in the boxes and I do use almost all of the sent products but I cant justify the increase...I feel ripped off.  My last month with them is October 2012.  They sent an email saying that they will charge $21.00CAD starting November for all subscribers but starting October, they will be implementing the new fee.  I may subscribe to them again, or perhaps with someone else, but I have currently unsubscribed from Glossybox.

Here is the October 2012 Glossybox pictures:

Glossybox Subscription June 2012- Canadian Version

I had recently subscribed again to a beauty box.  There are a variety of beauty box subscriptions out there and I chose Glossybox.  I used to subscribe to s beauty box called Luxebox but after 2 months I gave up because the stuff they sent I never used.

Oh to clarify, a beauty box subscription is something companies thought up in which they make you do a survey and then they will send you samples monthly in a box that related to what you have filled out in the survey. The monthly subscription fee for Glossybox is $15.00CAD.  Glossybox gives 7 samples a time. To me it is like a small treat for yourself every month!  It's not terribly expensive and the packaging is adorable!  It makes me feel very happy to unwrap boxes..lol.

So far my first Glossybox for the month of June 2012 was okay, there were 4 items that were full sized.  The only bad thing right now is that they are delivering their Canadian boxes late!  My June 2012 box came on July 03, 2012....which was disappointing because they charged my credit card in May 2012.  They also charged me for the month of July 2012 and I am not sure when my July 2012 box will come.   To me, my June 2012 subscription it totally worth it, the Venus razor is  and the hair spray already made me feel it was well worth it...lol  Razors are expensive!
Do I recommend Glossybox?  Don't know yet, perhaps I can give a better review after one or 2 more boxes..
