Lush Club Subscription Box October 2026: the fun one

The Lush Club Subscription Box, Lush’s monthly box of Kitchen exclusives, has a space and alien theme in October, with Space Girl perfume, The Eyelien shower jelly and Area 29 shower gel in every version, according to Beauty Detective. The Lush Club Subscription Box page lists it at £35 a month for the Standard or Shower box, and the XL box costs £49 with eight products instead of six.

  • Stated worth: Lush does not publish one, so you buy on the theme.
  • Price: £35 a month (Standard or Shower), £49 (XL).
  • Cut-off: the latest box is December’s festive edition, with a cut-off of 31 October, so sign up by then and December is your first box, according to Lush.

Which October beauty box is best for you?

  • Best value for full sizes: GLOSSYBOX. Four of five products are full size and the first box is £6. Just remember the cancellation cut-off on the 14th.
  • Best stated worth: LOOKFANTASTIC, at almost five times the monthly price, and the free welcome box makes October a good month to join. The catch is that half the box is minis or accessories.
  • Best for bath and shower fans: the Lush Club Subscription Box. It costs more than twice as much and has no stated worth, but every product is a Lush Kitchen exclusive. New subscribers will start with December, not October.
Box Monthly price Products Stated worth
GLOSSYBOX £13.50 5 (4 full size) £58.19
LOOKFANTASTIC £15 6 (3 full size) £71.99
Lush Club Subscription Box (Standard) £35 6 not published

Prices and offers from each brand’s own pages on 9 and 12 October 2026.

Our verdict

On a tight budget, start with GLOSSYBOX from £6. If you want the welcome gift and more hair and nail extras, choose the LOOKFANTASTIC Beauty Box. If Lush is your weakness, the Lush Club box is a treat rather than a bargain. For every option, see our pick of beauty boxes.
