    For what?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 502 ✭✭✭richy


    Everything really. In particular I am looking for skincare/grooming etc but also interested in clothes, accessories. From what I can see there isnt a male birchbox available in Ireland.

    I for one have no idea what you are on about!

    Can you elaborate a bit?

    You pay a monthly fee and get a semi-random pile of stuff delivered every month.

    Few if any ship to Ireland for things like this due to them often containing things which are awkward to go by air freight or have duty on them (perfumes); also returns are a problem and we're not a big enough country to have our own.

    Do you shave? Saw one listed on the Facial Hair forum a while back. Are you a geek? There's the "loot crate" for that. I don't think there's a "man crate", as it'd be a fairly broad category.

    Cornerstone and the other razor companies are the only ones I'm aware of. There's Sockfancy too but as the name suggests, they only send socks.

    Probably due to posting on this thread, I'm getting pushed ads for that Sprezza one now and came back to post it. Of the stuff in the current months box, I'd end up using the watch strap if any. Fairly ugly tie and socks, hipster lapel pin, card wallet and some very 1990s bracelets.

    Never used it myself but I'm not the target demographic, clothes are a means to an end for me (i.e. not getting arrested for walking around in the nip :D )

    I'd probably only be interested in a shaving one tbh

    I ordered TryTheTrend. It was good. You pay only for what you chose, they deliver and pick the box up for free.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭javagal

    There is a good few that ship to ireland, after reading this thread i looked as they sounded interesting. i personally like the sound of the quarterly ones rather than monthly ones but horses for courses

    I ordered from TryTheTrend.com too. it was really good. stylist called me within 2 hours of giving my details she asked me some questions to get to know my needs better. I received the box of clothes to Try a few days later loved all of it bar 1 item that I was able to have collected free. they charged me once they got the box back for the items I kept. I hate shopping so this was great for me ðŸ‘
