The 11 very best subscription boxes for women that make good gifts
I've been writing about subscription box gifts since the mid-2010s, when I first subscribed to Birchbox. The thrill of receiving a new delivery each month got me through the day, and I loved taking my time going through the box full of products that I had heard of but not yet tried for myself. Since then, I've tried out dozens of other subscription boxes as my tastes have changed, from wine and coffee, to chocolate and clothes, and even perfume and hobby-themed subscriptions.
Subscription boxes are, literally, the gift that keeps on giving (and giving, and giving...). They're an especially good last-minute gift for women who are hare to shop for, and when you're in a pinch: buy it on your way to see the recipient, pick up a card en route, and you can let them know to expect their first subscription box later in the month.
Whether you're shopping for your mom, sister, wife, girlfriend or friend, subscription boxes for women are a great way to lean into her interests or hobbies. Some subscription boxes send the same thing out to all subscribers; others allow subscribers to input preferences and receive boxes curated to their tastes.
From wine and coffee themed subscriptions, to books and flowers, there are literally thousands of subscription boxes out there for every type of interest. Below, I've highlighted a few of my favorites over the years that would make great gifts for any woman.
