SinglesSwag vs. FabFitFun


SinglesSwag vs FabFitFunSiinglesSwag or FabFitFun Editor’s box?

Subscription beauty boxes are amazing if you ask me. I loved quite a few lately and enjoyed testing all kinds of products sent to my door every month or every quarter. I am determined to find the best one, so my quest for goodness is never over even if I like FabFitFun more than others. But as my daughter’s dance teacher says after her competitions – it was great, but it can always be more. Take note, FanFitFun, and keep up the good work!

I have learned about SinglesSwag box recently and accidentally. I am happily married (most of the time), so this must be why I have never heard of it before.

Me being my curious self I just had to try this box that is meant for single ladies. I immediately envisioned something fabulous, inspirational, fresh, and just simply extraordinary – forbidden to us, married women. The truth was a little different as it was not as fabulous as I hoped for.

Anytime I get a new beauty subscription box, I immediately compare it to FabFitFun, because it’s as close to perfection as it can be, at least so far. I would like to compare SinglesSwag and FabFitFun boxes here for all to see, because there might be somebody trying to decide on which one to get as we speak.

First of all, the boxes have more similarities than differences, at least I think so. They both say that items included will cover beauty, fashion, and lifestyle. FabFitFun also delivers some home and fitness items. SinglesSwag includes a book and snack each time. FabFitFun comes every three months, while SinglesSwag arrives every month. You can select some items from FabFitFun each month, but everything is picked for you at SinglesSwag. FabFitFun is one size for seasonal subscribers and larger for annual members. SinglesSwag comes in two sizes – 6-7 item regular size and 3-4 items for petite size. FabFitFun doesn’t promise organic products, while SinglesSwag does promise, but doesn’t always deliver.

FabFitFun Winter Discount DealIf she could only read!

After listing all those differences I might take my words back – they seem to have more differences than similarities. And then there is a price issue. FabFitFun costs $49.99 per box and includes products that are valued way over $200. SinglesSwag costs $39.99 per month and also promises over $200 value in each box. The value is a very relative thing because each one of us will value only those products that we like and are going to use. If you will look at annual expenditure, SinglesSwag will cost you way more, but you will get boxes more often and thus will have more products. Both companies offer some discounts, but mainly towards the first box you order as a new customer.

SinglesSwag advertises their 6-month deal as the best value and FabFitFun suggests that signing up for a year will save you not only money, but will give a few perks – you will get discount off the total price when compared with monthly prices, will be able to choose 5 items out of about 10, and will get more items (9-10 instead of seasonal 7-8). If you like a particular company’s box, my advice is to sign up for a longer period of time and save money.

Now let’s go to the part about what I really think about both boxes. FabFitFun is my favorite, as I said before. So far I’ve got two regular boxes from them and one editor’s box – all excellent with very much used products. Then along comes SinglesSwag, I open it and I suddenly feel very thankful that I am married. In all seriousness though, marriage has nothing to do with my first impression.

I just feel that we, women, married or single, are worthy of more than this. I will go through the items that were included, but I am disappointed. It seems that at least some of those items were a bit junky and really would do nothing to make me feel empowered and self-confident, hint hint, sweet little brownie.

SinglesSwag claims to bring exciting items that are tasty, organic, and empowering, but I didn’t see them delivering on that. This is what I got:

  • Blue Revival Knit Twist Pompom Beanie ($36) – I like this beanie and plan to wear it

SinglesSwag Pompom BeanieThis little beanie from SinglesSwag is my favorite item

  • Eat Pray Love Made Me Do It – Life Journeys Inspired by the Bestselling Memoir ($16) – kind of expected the real best-selling memoir and got disappointed with this book

  • Manna Kadar Goddess Luxe Bath & Body Collection Refreshing Face Mist – smells good, but not natural or organic

SinglesSwag Refreshing Face MistHair repair is a sure way to self-esteem, per SinglesSwag

  • Brilliance New York Hair Couture Essential Hydration Repairing hair Mask with Argan Oil – long name, but nothing special about this product

SinglesSwag PromotionEverything is for you at SinglesSwag

I think that every single lady would feel much better if she shopped for similar items herself and ordered a box like FabFitFun, which targets all the women and makes them all feel good, regardless of marital status. Sometimes it’s important to not chase labels, but look at the total package instead. I can say that I will remain loyal to my FabFitFun after trying SinglesSwag.
