Would you like makeup sent to your doorstep every month for as little as $10? This was actually recommended to me by a friend. This is great because you get to sample all kinds of makeup, without having to buy a full size, or spend a lot of money on high end makeup. I had come across Allure Sample Society before, while a friend recommended Ipsy to me. And I thought, what else is out there? There must be more. So I went on the internet & did my research on these services that provide monthly subscriptions of makeup.
Price: $7 a month

Dear Caitlin,
I just checked & Ipsy only ships to US & Canada. Allure ships to many countries worldwide, but is not giving out memberships at the moment. (I’m not sure why) You could always check back later when they are! Birchbox have their own websites for Canada, UK, France & Spain, whereas Beauty Box 5, & Glossy box ship to US & Canada. Beauty Army & Beauty Fix ship to US only. I’m sorry that they don’t offer wider services but I hoped this information has helped you!
