Subscription Box Reviews

Archive for the ‘Uncategorized’ Category

I have boxes and bags FULL of goodies from the boxes I get monthly. Talk about overwhelmed!  Recently I came across two swap sites. If you have lots of unused samples laying around I highly suggest joining these FREE sites.

B.O.S.S. (Best of Shopping Small) Bag kindly sent me this fabulous Combination Bag for review.

PRICE: $25 FREE Shipping.

B.O.S.S. Bag is an exclusive way to try new products by small and established businesses. Every other month customers will receive a bag with 5 products (plus samples!) for $25. Customers have a choice of three bags; a fashion bag, beauty bag or combination bag!

Each bag will have a theme. This month its: “The Ice Cream Stand at the Beach”

Oh and on the back of the note card are the site addresses of all items in the bag along with deals when you make a purchase.

U-Niq Bath Salts ~ RELAX Full-sized jar made with 100% dead sea salt and lavender. Smells soooo good!

Escentially Inspired ~ Orange Sparkle Perfume Oil Spray

Isabella’s Own ~ Sulfate Free Shampoo foil packet.

Naturally Decadent By Beauty ~ Lime in the Coconut Body polish. FULL SIZE. My favorite thing in this bag!

Talia Waajid Black Earth Products ~ Foil packet of Lock It Up curl product??

U-Niq ~ Comb with bling

Valkin Threads ~ Bow headband

Duafe Naturals ~ Handmade Shea Butter Soap

Knots N Tangles Crochet Works ~ Crazy Starfish necklace.  Super cute, but I could never wear it.  Just not my thing.

This was quite the interesting bag! I loved the scrub and bath salts, but the rest was not for me. It would make the perfect gift bag though!

I got this bag free for review purposes.  All opinions are 100% my own. ~D

BlushBox Is offing 50% all boxes. I don’t know how long this will last so if you’re interested in trying this sub out, now is the time to do it!

They have several varieties to choose from. I think I might try one out. What about you?

Girl Woman Lady Box is a monthly subscription service.

It’s all about you!
A fairly new way to discover and bring new & exciting products into your everyday lifestyle.
GWL offers monthly subscription boxes for girls, women and ladies with carefully chosen products that are unique, cool & exciting…all delivered to your front door!
A mix of different beauty, food and innovative products (anything from books, soaps, make-up, apparel, food, snacks, etc.). All in full size and/or trial sizes for your enjoyment.

There are two different Subscription options: Month-to-Month, 3 Months or a one-time only purchase (great for gift giving).
Each box is only $24.99 and has a retail value of up to 3-4 times that cost!

Here is the box I was sent for the month of November.

BONUS: handmade heart key holder

PH Thrive/Mineral Drops (2)

Colormates/Foundation Bruch

Pentel/Wow Pen (doesn’t work)

Ultra Balm foil packets.

TrueBar/ Coconut cashew

Raw Snacks/Snack Bar

Extra Peppermint Gum

Just Good Stuff Lip Balm

Acure Organics Body Wash (only thing I love in this box)

Wall Creati0ns Art “Life is Beautiful.”

I have to be honest. I have mixed feelings about this box. For a first attempt it’s great, but if they want to keep subscribers they’re going to have to step it up a notch. It just seemed thrown together. There was no theme, the products chosen felt random.

I’m curious to see what next month brings before I make a commitment.

I decided to give True Beauty Box a try. They offer all natural beauty products. There are two options:
Veganista $30 (every other month)
Indulge $49 (every other month)
I went with Veganista

Benecos lipstick “Rose Love”

True ~ Anti-Aging Rose Night Cream

Lavera ~ Restoring Day Cream

Lavera ~ Cooling Eye Roll On

Benecos ~ Day Cream

I must say that even though I realize “natural” products cost more, I still feel I didn’t get my money’s worth. *shrugs* I’ll give it another month.

Madame Ladybug Pamper Me Ladybox is a new T.O.M box. This is from their blog.

“How many of us women at one point or another have wished for pads, tampons, and chocolates to magically just appear at their doorstep when Mother Nature causes an uproar of emotions, hormones, and a whole lot of unwanted symptoms. Well your wish is our command! Madame Ladybug is that magical experience that will take that time of month and turn it into an event that you will continue to look forward to. Each month we will send you a Ladybox, filled with all the necessities you will need to survive your period, not with a frown but with a SMILE. We do not consider ourselves a tampon delivery service, because our job doesn’t just end after the products have been delivered to you. Our job is to support you and encourage you until your cycle ends. Madame Ladybug is a special catering service for women; when they are at their most vulnerable, emotional, and hormonal place. Give us the privilege to serve you!”

Escape Monthly is a new “vacation in a box” subscription service. Each month they send you luxury products inspired by a different locale, and 1 lucky subscriber wins a trip for 2 to the destination each month (I love that part!)

The Cost: $49.95

The Products: Cultural treasures, luxury items, deluxe beauty and spa products.

Ships to: US only.

Who wants to escape with me? 🙂

I kept Hello Flo for a second month. I was half expecting another cute clothe bag, but didn’t get one. It must be for first time subscribers. I guess that makes sense. I personally wouldn’t mind several of them though. 🙂

I am subscribed to “Light Flo” because I’m blessed with a short T.O.M. It’s $14 and I get just enough supplies to get me through it.

Like last month I got a handful of tampons (Tampax Pearl)  and a handful of pads/liners (Always). Umm I didn’t count them. LOL

They skipped chocolate this month *gasp* due to warmer temps. They didn’t want us to open a box of melted mess. Instead we got Cocomels, caramels made with coconut milk and corn syrup free. YaY! I love coconut milk and anything made with it.

I also got 1 “Box” brand intimate wipes. I wish they would have thrown a few more in there. I mean, one isn’t enough to carry a girl through. Oh well.

If you want to give Flo a try visit their site. www.HelloFlo.com

I paid for this box on my own and all opinions are mine. ~D
