With over 400,000 monthly subscribers, Birchbox set the trend for a new wave of marketing and convenience for millennials. For a small monthly fee, you can have virtually anything delivered right to your front door. From books, food, jewelry, DIY projects, or even candles, the possibilities are limitless.
We’ve curated a list of unique boxes that are sure to twinkle your toes, minds, and tummies!
Bootay Bag
Thanks to the people over at Bootay Bag, we’re now able to put our panty shopping days behind us! No more scouring the drawers of Victoria’s Secret for the perfect size and style.
Choose yours size and panty preference (always thongs, never thongs, or mix-it-up) and they’ll deliver two pairs of vibrant panties to your mailbox for only $12 a month!
Fun Fact: Share #undermatters on social media and BootayBag will donate $1 to the Melanoma Foundation.
Geenie Box
Each month, Geenie Box selects an influential woman of color to curate a box filled with a few of her favorite inspirational items. The chosen lady selects a book, beauty/productivity/wellness products, and VIP experiences to share with subscribers. The April Geenie was none other than Her Agenda’s very own, Rhonesha Byng.
Their mission is “to inspire boldness by showcasing iconic Black women and their secret weapons,” and they are doing so, big time. Pick the brain’s of your favorite brown girls for only $39 a month.
Julep
Become a Julep Maven and get $40+ worth of products for $24.99 a month, or if you’re feeling risky, the Maven Luxe option affords you $60+ of products for $39.99 a month. During the monthly ‘reveal,’ you’re able to preview the items of the month and either keep your standard box, or customize your items to fit your style and needs.
Mavens also have access to the secret store; a monthly opportunity to purchase Julep products at a discount, opening up the perfect opportunity for you to snag those products you fell in love with from your box!
