The Beauty Edit Box

The Beauty Edit Box is FabFitFun's first beauty-only subscription, delivering 4 full-size, fully customizable beauty products monthly. Featuring prestige brands like Rare Beauty, Patrick Ta, Glow Recipe, and Laneige, it's the only fully customizable beauty box at this price point. Shipping is included for current FabFitFun members.

The Beauty Edit Box marks FabFitFun’s expansion into monthly beauty subscriptions. Launched in late 2025, it brings the same customization philosophy that made their seasonal box popular to a dedicated beauty format.

How It Works

The Beauty Edit Box monthly subscription cycle delivers fully customizable prestige beauty products:

1. Subscribe and Choose Plan: Visit FabFitFun’s website and select the Beauty Edit Box subscription at $29.99/month with monthly billing and cancel-anytime flexibility. Provide shipping and payment information. Note that free shipping applies only to existing FabFitFun seasonal box members; non-members may incur additional shipping costs.

2. Customization Window Opens: Approximately one week before your billing date each month, FabFitFun emails you that customization is open for the Beauty Edit Box. Log into your account to see the available product selection for that month’s box. Unlike some beauty subscriptions with partial customization, Beauty Edit Box gives you full control over all 4 products.

3. Choose Your 4 Products: Browse the available selection across beauty categories:

• Skincare (cleansers, serums, moisturizers, masks, treatments)
• Makeup (eyeshadow palettes, lipsticks, mascaras, blushes, liners)
• Haircare (shampoos, conditioners, styling products, treatments)
• Fragrance (perfumes, body mists)

The interface displays:

• Product photos and brand information
• Full-size details (ounces, shades, scents)
• Retail value for each item
• Product descriptions and key ingredients
• Limited member reviews (since this is a newer offering)

Important Note: While marketed as “100% customizable,” the selection pool is typically 15-25 products total. This means choice is limited compared to à la carte shopping, though you do select all 4 items yourself rather than receiving curated surprises.

4. Finalize Selection and Billing: After making your 4 selections within the customization window (typically 3-5 days), confirm your choices. FabFitFun charges your payment method $29.99 (plus shipping if you’re not a seasonal FFF member) around the billing date. You’ll receive a confirmation email showing your selected products.

5. Box Assembly and Shipping: Within 7-14 business days of billing, your Beauty Edit Box ships. Boxes are compact, containing your 4 full-size beauty products in protective packaging. Shipping times vary by location but typically arrive within one week of shipment notification.

6. Receive and Unbox Your Monthly Box: When your Beauty Edit Box arrives, you’ll find:

• 4 full-size beauty products you personally selected
• Product information cards
• Access to FabFitFun’s online beauty content and tutorials

All products are retail-packaged full sizes - the same items sold at Sephora, Ulta, or brand websites. No deluxe samples or travel sizes.

7. Use Products Throughout the Month: Over the next 30 days before your next Beauty Edit Box, incorporate your 4 full-size products into your beauty routine:

• Full-size skincare lasts 2-4 months with daily use
• Full-size makeup provides months to years of use
• Full-size haircare offers several weeks of regular application

This monthly cadence means you receive 48 full-size products annually if you maintain the subscription year-round.

8. Rate Your Products (If Available): While the Beauty Edit Box is newer and doesn’t have the established review infrastructure of FabFitFun’s seasonal box, providing feedback helps improve future product selections and informs other members making choices.

9. Manage Subscription Flexibility: Through your FabFitFun account dashboard:

• Skip a month if you have product overload or budget constraints
• Update beauty preferences
• Cancel without fees (monthly billing means no long-term commitment)
• Upgrade to or maintain seasonal FabFitFun membership for free shipping

10. Decide Monthly Participation: Each month, decide whether to customize and receive a box or skip. The monthly billing model offers flexibility but also requires active management to avoid accumulating products you don’t need.

Timing: Customization windows open approximately one week before monthly billing. Boxes ship within 7-14 days of billing and arrive roughly 10-20 days into the new month.

Who It’s For

Best For:

• Full Control Beauty Shoppers: Those who want to choose every product rather than receiving curated surprises
• Prestige Brand Lovers: Beauty enthusiasts who prefer higher-end brands (Rare Beauty, Patrick Ta, Glow Recipe) over mass-market drugstore options
• Monthly Delivery Preference: People who want regular monthly beauty deliveries rather than quarterly or seasonal boxes
• FabFitFun Seasonal Members: Existing FFF members who want additional monthly beauty deliveries with free shipping benefit
• Full-Size Product Seekers: Those tired of accumulating deluxe samples and wanting retail-size products they’ll actually use
• Budget-Conscious Prestige Shoppers: Buyers recognizing $30/month for 4 full-size prestige products represents savings over retail
• Beauty Routine Refreshers: Those who regularly need new makeup and skincare and appreciate scheduled monthly restocking
• Gift Givers: Purchasing monthly beauty subscriptions for beauty-loving friends or family members
• Variety Seekers: Those who enjoy trying different prestige brands across categories monthly

Not Ideal For:

• Non-FFF Members on Budget: Additional shipping costs for non-FabFitFun members reduce value proposition
• Discovery-Focused Beauty Fans: Limited selection pool (15-25 products) means less variety than marketed; if you want broad discovery, sample-based boxes offer more brands
• Luxury-Only Buyers: While prestige, these aren’t ultra-luxury brands; if you only use high-end department store brands, selections may feel mid-tier
• Customer Service Prioritizers: FabFitFun’s 3.4/5 Trustpilot rating indicates mixed customer service experiences; if responsive support matters greatly, this is risky
• Minimalists Avoiding Accumulation: 48 full-size products per year creates significant product volume; if you’re decluttering or using products slowly, monthly pace overwhelms
• Those Wanting Deep Customization: Despite “100% customizable” marketing, you’re limited to FFF’s curated monthly selection; if you want unlimited choice, direct retail shopping offers more control
• Sensitive Skin Requiring Research: Limited reviews for newer Beauty Edit products make it harder to research ingredients and reactions before committing
• Long-Term Value Seekers: Newer product means less track record; established beauty subscriptions have proven consistency over years
• Quarterly Preference Subscribers: If you prefer less frequent deliveries with more items per box, FFF’s seasonal box or other quarterly options suit better

The Beauty Edit Box works best for existing FabFitFun members who already trust the brand and want monthly beauty deliveries with full product selection control. The prestige brand partnerships and full-size products offer solid value at $29.99/month, but the limited selection pool and mixed customer service reviews mean this works better as a supplement to an existing beauty routine rather than a primary discovery source for new beauty enthusiasts.
