BLOOMBOX by @cosme

Closed.The service, formerly GLOSSYBOX Japan, ended with its December 2024 box.

What's in the box: When it ran, each box held a curated selection of skincare, makeup and other beauty products to try.

BLOOMBOX by @cosme is no longer operating: it ended with its December 2024 box, and its website now shows only a closure notice. The service was run by istyle Inc., the company behind @cosme, a large Japanese beauty review and shopping platform. It started out as GLOSSYBOX Japan and was later renamed under the @cosme brand. While it ran, it was a beauty subscription for shoppers in Japan. Each box held a curated mix of skincare, makeup and other beauty products, so subscribers could try new items before buying full-size versions. What set it apart was its link to @cosme, where shoppers could read plenty of user reviews about the products they received. The closure notice thanks past customers and points them to @cosme itself, but it doesn't mention a replacement box or any way to subscribe. If you want a beauty sampling subscription now, you will need a different service. If you liked the idea, you can still browse @cosme for reviews and rankings to find products worth trying, though it is a shopping and review site, not a subscription box.
