I just checked the target site because I miss these beauty boxes so much (haha) and now they have some new boxes that say Coming Soon! There’s a clean edition, advent calendar, cosmetics edition, hair edition all listed as coming soon…I hope this is true! I love giving these as little gifts around the holidays

Please bring back monthly Beauty Boxes — Great way to try new products — well worth the $7.00

I was on a Target Customer Service chat a few weeks back and asked about the Beauty Boxes. The representative said the boxes would be coming back “soon”, but wouldn’t be monthly boxes; more like boxes centered around particular products.

Take that with a grain of salt because the representative also said they would credit a purchase and then once I hung up, only credited a small fraction of the purchase. This has happened twice, where a Target representative promised a certain amount refunded or credited, and once I was off the phone, the representative only refunded a small percentage of what was promised neccesitating yet another Customer Service chat.

I am so sad about this. I guess I can remove the beauty box bookmark from my bookmark bar.

I think Birchbox will be the next subscription box to be discontinued. As a company they haven’t really put any new merchandise in the shop since the virus took over. They’ve had one kit and one limited edition box. And, they’ve been discontinuing things left and right. And, just letting things sell and not restocking. So, I really believe they will make there last box ever September. Since, they already have August box planned and Sept. is their Anniversary as a company. So, I think that’s when they’ll call it quite’s.

I wish Target had went out on a high note with an incredible box.

I thought the first 2 years of Target Beauty boxes were stellar. Especially, the holiday box from that year. I remember it being chalked full of makeup for $5.00. Then they became hit or miss. Until, finally they became pretty awful. However, I actually miss the days they used to send a makeup bag chalked full of samples. Back, then you paid $5.00 in shipping cost and the sample bags were free. Most, probably don’t even remember that program because it pre- dated beauty box subscriptions. In fact that program with Target even pre-dated Birchbox.

I’ll miss the Target boxes!

I suppose that I should be glad that I am saving money what with Macy’s, Sephora Play and now Target going.

Any word on whether the Macy’s box is ever coming back?

Even though I had stopped ordering regularly, I’m sorry to see it end. It made a great Christmas stocking stuffer!

Sorry to see this! I looked forward to new boxes each month. Hopefully they’ll do something like Walmart and do quarterly or seasonal. I remember when I used to spend $10!
I really hope they come with something better as they say….. Let’s hope!

I personally won’t miss this one…they started out great, but with time I lost interest and stopped buying. It’ll be interesting to see which boxes stand the test of time.

This really seals it, guys. The sub box game is over. Give it 12-18 months tops & they’ll all be gone. It was really fun while it lasted though! 😥

Bummer! The Target box definitely had its ups and downs, but they had a few really strong boxes recently, including sunscreen and the nail care box. I was hoping they were on the upswing for the long-term.

That truly stinks. It was cheap and always had at least one new item I liked.

Anyone remember when these were free?

Lauren

Sorry I know this is the 3rd response. BUT, the other thing I remember is you had to be lightening fast on the computer. Because, those free sample bags were always gone within 5 mins. I remember it being like a game because you never knew when they drop the bag. Since, it pre-dated Sub boxes and subscription addiction didn’t exist. And, the first free sample bag pre-dated smart phones lol. I think the first bag came out in ‘07 or ‘08. So, it really was a lot harder to secure it. I lost out quite a few bags due to having to hit re-fresh or the back button my laptop. lol good-times.

I even still have the Cheetah print makeup bag. Which, was the last free sample bag they ever sent out.

Lauren

YES! That program even pre-dated Birchbox. I remember the free samples would come out quarterly and u’d just pay the shipping price.
And, the samples even came inside a makeup bag!

I remember when they were free, came with a makeup bag, and were much better! I have only purchased one in the last several years.

Bummer. I’ve only ordered a couple. I always seem to have a couple of bucks on a gift card, and this was a nice little treat ☹️

I used to love the Target beauty boxes; but they’ve really gone downhill that last year or two. I used to always get the men’s boxes for Christmas gifts. I’m sad they’re gone; but I honestly haven’t bought one for at least a year.

I’ll bet Birchbox is one of the next to go.

Agreed. I think they’ll end their subscription boxes in September. Bc, they already have Aug. planned out. And, Sept is their Anniversary month as a company. I’ve been paying attention and BB hasn’t been re-stocking anything, they’ve been discontinuing quite a bit too, along with not really coming out with anything new for their shop.

I hate to say this but this virus has completely taken over everything,I would not doubt it if by the end of the year all of our subscription boxes were completely done and over…..It is so sad what is happening in today’s world,I am so sad to see all the stuff going on today,and I am sad to see all of our boxes ending.

WTH?? And another one bites the dust. I didn’t get every box, but I got a lot of them over the years. They were such a deal for $7. The May sunscreen box was excellent, I got several. And they were great stocking stuffers at Christmas. I just ordered the remaining June box, bc it’s the last one. 😢
