1. Cocotique
Use coupon code BOX10 to save 10% on your first month.
Why it is a must: Cocotique is a subscription box that caters specifically to women of color. Each month they send 5-8 beauty and hair care items. (Usually a mix of samples, deluxe and full-size items). They also offer amazing value limited edition boxes throughout the year, and they sometimes have brand takeover months, where you’ll get several full-size items from one brand.

2. New Beauty Test Tube
Why it is a must: New Beauty Test Tube may just be the original beauty subscription box and it is still going strong! This box ships every other month, and they deliver a lot of full-size and deluxe-size products. The one caveat – sometimes they are guilty of repeating brands/products in their boxes. If you are a subscriber for years, this can get a little frustrating, but if you are a new subscriber it shouldn’t be an issue!

3.BeautyFix
Why it is a must: This is another high-value box compared the cost. (Usually around the $100 mark). They typically provide a good mix of makeup, skincare and haircare products. (More haircare than most other beauty boxes). If you are looking for a good variety of items with a high value, this one almost always delivers.

4.11. Walmart Beauty Box
Why it is a must: This one gets mixed reviews on our site, and for good reason – Walmart sends out extremely varied boxes each season. Some subscribers get awesome boxes with full-size items like makeup and deodorant when other subscribers only get samples and foil packets. However, I put it on the list because 1.beauty box and 2. If you like a gamble, the risk is somewhat small, and it can really pay off.

5. Petit Vour
Why it is a must: If you are looking for vegan and/or natural beauty products, this box is for you! (Also see Vegan Cuts Beauty Box, below). Petit Vour focuses on quality over quantity, so you can expect usually 4 samples, some of which may be full-size. I’ve discovered some great new brands from this subscription, too!

6. Vegan Cuts Beauty Box
Why it is a must: This is another vegan beauty subscription box, and great for vegan and natural products. Each box includes 4-7 products, and they are usually good about including, at least, one or two full-size products!

7.14. Essence Beauty Box
Why it is a must: Thanks to Allure Beauty Box and New Beauty Test Tube, it is established that magazines can do great things with beauty subscription boxes, and so far Essence has been hitting it out of the park! They’ve been including a great mix of full-size and sample-size items, and in each box they “strive to feature a product from a Black-owned business!”

8. The eSalon Custom Color Box
Use this link to save 50% off your first box.
Why it is a must: If you are looking to color your hair at home and want to get a very customized experience (AKA – much better than picking out a box of hair dye), this is a great and affordable subscription. Their stylists will work with you throughout the process to make sure you get the exact color and dye instructions you need.
