A Few Changes + New Men’s Subscription Box Reviews

Posted by on

A note from Brandy: We’ve been working hard at my site, and we are working to make it a gender-neutral place for all our subscription box reviews. To that end, new reviews of men’s subscription boxes are going up on my site (new name!) Hello Subscription. Recently he has posted:

Tom continues to write reviews of other subscription boxes (especially food, coffee, and wine) and you can find all of his subscription box reviews here. While we have continued to put up a few reviews on this site, over the next few months we’ll be moving them over to the main site and eventually redirecting this site and the individual reviews once we move them. I’ll be making a men’s homepage so you can access everything that you’d be interested in all on one page (though right now, the page with all of Tom’s reviews is pretty close!).

As we’ve always mainly posted reviews of man-friendly boxes like geek & gamer & nerd subscription boxes over at my site, we think you’ll find it more useful to have everything in one place.  The men’s subscription box list has the added benefit of being much more up to date than the one here is. The coupons are very much more up to date.

Thanks, and if you have any specific requests, we are always open to them (but especially right now before we get to work building our new features!).

Wet Shave Club Review – January 2015 – Men’s Shaving Subscription Box

Posted by on

IMG_8824

Wet Shave Club is a new subscription box devoted to the art of wet shaving (and 30 days of handsomeness). First-time subscribers will receive a modified box that includes a safety razor with handle & case, as well as a bristle brush, in case you aren’t already a wet shaving aficionado.

IMG_8825

I’d already received a previous box (you can see the razor/brush there), this is a box for returning subscribers. I really enjoyed my initial shipment and have been regularly wet shaving so I happily agreed to review.

IMG_8829

Lots of stuff to try in the January 2015 box.  This month’s shipment included some new Trig blades and several botanical accoutrements. I’m saving the Edwin Jagger shave cream and after shave lotion for my dopp kit.  The sandalwood lotion smells nice.  

IMG_8827

The Ursa Major wash and balm are great: the former is slightly minty, and the latter lanolin and licorice scented (at least to my untrained nose).  

IMG_8828

Also included was Crow and Sparrow’s Wares Aftershave Tonic ($6).  This has a classic barber shop scent and feel; it is mildly scented. The Sudsy Soapery Shave Oil in “Twice Mint” ($8.95) was a great addition to my routine. I appreciate the multiple samples – it’s always nice to have a new scent to try or a different blend.

IMG_8826

Along with the samples and extra blades is the centerpiece of the monthly box: the wet shaving soap. This month included Ellington’s Gentleman’s Shaving Soap. It’s the same as sold on their site ($10) but without the shaving can. This soap lathers well, provides a great shave, and has a classic masculine woody scent.

The cost of the samples definitely bring the value of the box up to the monthly cost. You can save on your subscription by opting for a longer plan – up to $7 off every box. I have definitely enjoyed using all of my Wet Shave Club products. I think it’s a great experience and an excellent alternative to conventional shaving subscriptions. I recommend trying it at least once.

Visit Wet Shave Club to subscribe or find out more.

The Subscription: Wet Shave Club
The Description: Experience the joy of wet shaving, with a monthly box filled with different soaps, blades, aftershaves, and more from around the world.
The Price: $29 per month

Button Up A Month Review – Men’s Shirt Subscription Box

Posted by on

IMG_8726

Button Up A Month is a new men’s shirt subscription service. You add shirts to your queue and they’ll ship them out to you Netflix-style (no need to return). I received a couple shirts for the purposes of reviewing this service.

Each month you’ll receive the shirt at the top of your list. You’re only charged for shirts sent and if there are none in your queue, no shirt!

IMG_8728

I added a few to my queue and was sent the shirts at the top of my list. They’re 100% cotton and $16.99 each.  There are a variety of colors and styles (I didn’t realize I’d get the top ones on the list so I didn’t try to get different ones). They’re fair quality with single stitching. I really liked that the tails were long. Each shirt arrived packed up like a shirt normally would be (on a card, wrapped in plastic) inside a poly mailer.IMG_8729

This subscription would be great for a man who needs to expand his shirt wardrobe inexpensively, a little at a time.

If you use the coupon it will be better, but Adore Me isn’t particularly high end, although it’s nice.
