My New Fashion and Beauty Subscription "Love"!
I recently subscribed to Her fashion Box where they describe it so simply in their tag line as the "monthly fashion, beauty and lifestyle boxed up!". It was on my wish list to get after I saw Talia's (2bfem) video on the April box but once I read a few reviews I decided to take the plunge. A big thanks to Michelle from Michelles Little Beauty Space for the discount code! (It saved me $14 on my first box, so definitely check out her blog if your interested in subscribing).
Like other subscription competitors such as BellaBox and Lusthaveit you receive beauty and lifestyle products but HFB point of difference appears to be the 2-3 fashion accessories that are promised in every monthly box.
I also like the fact you can choose a style theme as there are three styles of boxes that you can subscribe to: Classic, Feminine and Trendy. I opted for Classic which is stated as "elegant" and a "natural look with earthy tones and....timeless beauty" which I felt more at ease with over the other two styles. This is then tailored along with the details from your style profile to provide a more personally suitable box.
Another big point of difference to note is the price of $39.95AU per month which far exceeds the $15 of BellaBox and the newly increased $19.95 of Lusthaveit. Of course the latter subscriptions can offer values of $60+ per month while HFB promotes a value over the $100 mark on their site.
Also HFB doesn't do the standard little card listing what is in that month's box. Oh no, they have done a purse size "Her Fashion Magazine" featuring layouts promoting what each style type received, fashion guides and beauty how to's with the products sent out in each box.

Well enough of the what HBF is...now to the "what I got" in the May Classic herfashionbox
I came home to find May's HFB loitering about in all it's hot pink glory on my front door step. The cute outer packaging reminded me of the cuteness that Glossybox used to do by having an external coloured and logo marked box.
The actual HFB inside is the simple black and white box which I look forward to using for storing and organising as it certainly dwarfs any of the other samples subscription boxes I have!
I lifted back the layers of black tissue paper to reveal the magazine and all the goodies for the month...
Of course I went straight for the 2 black accessory bags and was pleased to find three fashion accessories to glam up in the cooler months - a pair of silver collar pins, a gorgeous bling gold detailed statement necklace and a sexy black and gold leather cuff which I immediately adorned myself with.
The Her Fashion Magazine gives all the details on these little beauties as well as what the other style boxes, the Feminine and Trendy, would've received. Ooh, they sure look good!
It wouldn't be complete without some beauty treats and I did a little skip as I got some Ardell Strip Lash glue (honestly I stupidly spurted out a whole lot so I desperately needed more). HBF included some lovely Ardell Lashes and the Classics boxes got the 120 Demi.
The hair and nails also got treated with new Batiste "flavours" (I got the Cherry) and nail polish from Polished London. The Milky Mocha varnish will take my nails "Classic" look from Autumn into Winter.
The face was not forgotten with DB Brands Pore Minimising Primer. Excellent, I have wanted to try another "pore minimiser" and I admit DB Brands revamp of the stands and their new products have been tempting me for months.
Okies that wraps up my May Classic Box from Her Fashion Box and I'd love to her what you got in your box or if you have any questions. If you are wanting to see each product in all its Youtube video glory please stay tuned for my video which I'll link in my next post!
Stay being lovely!
