ARE YOU SUBSCRIBED?

26th March 2018

Have you ever delved into the world of subscription boxes? There’s something for every aspect of your lifestyle if only you’d look into it, be it clothes, food, essentials, kids, and pets. It’s like tasking a group of tastemakers to doing monthly curated shopping for you. Sometimes it comes with the surprise of not knowing what you may end up with! Like Christmas every month!

Subscription boxes were first started to cater to busy working individuals who don’t have time or mental load to shop. Soon after, the concept took off by storm! And it became an extremely FUN way to discover brands you mostly likely won’t try on your own. Some food subscription boxes also guide you to eating healthier!

The problem is, as much as these boxes pack so much awesome, purchasing them would prove a little too pricey when you have to include international shipping since they were mostly based from the US.

But thanks to us (yes, we at BuyandShip), now YOU can get access to these subscription boxes at a lower shipping cost!

If you’re new to this concept, we’ve shortlisted a few really good ones to get you started. And of course, we chose those that give FREE domestic shipping!

IPSY

If you’re a fan of Michelle Phan, you’d know Ipsy is a company she started so that girls from all walks of life can get access to the multiple brands of makeup that exists in the beauty industry. What makes this subscription a classic favourite is the value for money you get each month. Not only do you get five beauty products from premium brands, either sample or full sized, but you also get a very pretty makeup pouch they get packaged in each month. For US$10, we say that’s pretty darn worth it.

STANCE

Gentlemen, we know that a steady supply of clean underwear is an integral part of your life, if only laundry day can catch up with you. And your limited number of socks may often get mismatched because the washing machine ate the other side. If that happens regularly, then this box may change your life! Take a survey with them and Stance will supply you with fresh socks or underwear either monthly or quarterly, all according to your style. You never have to go inside-out ever again!

VEGAN CUTS

Even if you do not completely buy into the vegan mantra, you have to admit that it wouldn’t hurt to find parts of your life and diet where you can make a lifestyle change, for the sake of your entire wellbeing. Calbee chips every night can’t be good for you. The Vegan Cuts box is a good way to ease into the transition to healthier eating. Subscribe and you’ll get sent 10 different products every month Even we have to admit it’s pretty interesting how creative the maker of these snacks can get. Vegan gourmet chocolate? Sweet potato pancake mix? Consider us very, very curious indeed.

TOUCANBOX

Learning for kids should always involve large amounts of fun! If you’re constantly searching for ways to entertain your kids and keep them away from the screens, the Toucanbox may be the answer for you. The people behind Toucanbox believe that each activity they put together pushes kids to develop into curious and critical thinking people, all this from engaging them in the forms of crafting and creative. From what we can see the boxes hold, the creations look fun even from an adult’s perspective, so it’s a great way to have some bonding time with the little ones.

RESCUEBOX

Even furry family members should be included when you’re thinking of starting on this subscription box lifestyle. There are quite a number of boxes that come with treats and accessories for pets available, but we chose to feature RescueBox. Not only do you get to choose treats for either cats or dogs, but the amount you pay works as a donation to feed and vaccinate animals in need. So the more your pet gets spoiled with high quality products, the more lives get saved. To us, this sounds like the best reason to get started!

This, is just touching the surface of the many, many, boxes you can discover for yourself. But don’t forget that these ones featured here all offer free domestic shipping within their origin country so you can work smart with your savings!
