There are dozens of beauty subscription boxes out there and it can be a challenge to know what’s worth it and what’s, well, not. As someone who tried the Allure Beauty Box years ago (back when it was the Allure Sample Society), I was curious to see what I was missing out on these days. Turns out, a lot!
What it is:
A monthly beauty subscription box from Allure.
How it works:
Select your subscription, monthly or yearly, and all boxes are the same each month.
What you’ll get:
5-7 full and travel-size products selected by Allure, a mini-mag with tips and tricks, and a new member gift valued at $15+
What it costs:
$15 a month ($10 for your first), or $150 for a year, saving $30. Shipping is included.
I signed up in time to receive the August box, and when it arrived it did NOT disappoint! Here’s what came in my first Allure Beauty Box.

- Eyeko Skinny Liquid Eyeliner (full-size, $22 value)
- Caudalie Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet (travel-size, $15 value)
- Laritzy Cosmetics Light Stix in Halo (full-size, $24 value)
- Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask (travel-size, $3 value) – not pictured because I’ve already been using it!
- Nexxus Keraphix Damage Healing Shampoo (travel-size, $3 value)
- Nexxus Keraphix Damage Healing Conditioner (travel-size, $3 value)
- Breda Watches $30 credit
- Bonus New Member Gift – Juice Beauty Phyto-Pigments Cream Shadow Stick (full-size, $22 value)
That’s a total value of about $70 in product, plus the $30 credit, PLUS the $22 value of my bonus item! Not bad for just $15! (Actually, I paid just $10 since it was my first box!)
As someone who was already using the Caudalie moisturizer, that product alone was worth the cost of the box for me! I was more than happy with the items that came in my Allure Beauty Box, and I’m already excited about the coming September box! (There will be a full-size MAC lipstick!) You don’t want to miss out on this box!
