What are these? They are two services where you subscribe (either annually, monthly or 6-monthly) and you receive a box with 4-5 samples of beauty products in the box. The boxes cost R100 per month and both services promise that the value of the boxes received would be more than R100.
Both boxes have lovely websites, it can be viewed here:

From the rubybox website:
Yipee, I’ve just signed up for a rubybox subscription. What will I receive?
Within the first ten days of every month, you’ll receive a box filled with four or five trial-size samples from luxury beauty brands with a value ranging between R200 – R400. Each month will bring a different mix of makeup, skincare, fragrance, body, and hair products. As the samples are trial-size, they are designed to give you enough for you to try for up to a week to figure out if they’re right for you. Plus, our website is packed with expert tips and interviews and detailed product descriptions so you can get the most out of your samples and your Rubybox experience. To qualify for the following month’s box, you’ll need to sign up before the cut-off date of 12pm on the 26th of the month.

I have received the Rubybox since February and the Glambox since April. I tried very hard to decide which one I wanted to take an annual subscription out on, since it is a lot cheaper than the monthly subscription. I could not choose between the two boxes and ended up taking out an annual subscription to both. So there is a lot more to come.
In all honesty I need to mention, there is a third box, but U have never received one. It is called Glossybox and it works on the same principle, although it is a bit more expensive.

I recently came across a really really nice, very honest comparison of the three beauty boxes. Gee Whiskers
Thank you so much for the mention :)
