I'm a little behind posting about the Summer 2013 box. The message encourages us to enjoy the gifts of nature in the summer days, the colors, the outdoors... lol which are now over. Sorry...
---------- Unboxing ---------
Acure | Argan Oil and Marula Oil
Sample size: $3 each?
Full size: $15.99
I really like the marula oil. I've never heard about it before, and I read that it reduces the visibility of scars. It does moisturizes well too. It's lighter than argan oil too. It's a nice alternative.
suki | Luscious Lip Berry Cream Trio
Full size: $31.95
This is really cute. There's a lip balm, a gloss, and then a stain for cheeks or lips.
Juil footwear | $40 off promo
I ended up buying a pair for their vegan sandals for $30 (after the discount). Worth it. They're cute, but I need a moleskin so that I don't get cuts and blisters while I'm walking in them.
PRITTE |
Sample size: 5oz, $22.50
Full size: 8 oz, 240 mL, $36
Has aloe in it and honey! Also, they support non profit organizations.
Phyt's | Lait Hydro Nettoyant
Sample size: 1.4 fl oz, $5
Full size: 7 oz, $25
The instructions are in French. I wish I understood what it said :( High school French is not enough. This is a water soluble cleansing milk. Works like soap.
JJ's Sweets | Sea salt cocomels
pocket pack, $3.99
I ate all of these in two days. I bought four flag ship packs, 2 sea salt and 2 java flavored. These are great snacks!
Level Naturals | Shower Bomb - 4 pack
Full size: Four pack, $7.99
These are good when you're sick. There's menthol and eucalyptus. Good for colds. I think I might get some more at some point.
Spa Ritual | Emerald City Nail Laquer and Top Coat
Full size: $10 @ Sephora
The green is very bold, and it does remind me of the Wizard of Oz. It's a nice, fun color for the summer though if you want to show off your toes in your sandals.
Action Wipes | Pre-moistened wipes
Sample size: 1 wipe, $.83?
Full size: pack of 30, $24.99
I used this after a 5k, and it picked up a lot of dirt and sweat. You end up smelling like eucalyptus for the rest of the day. I don't know about reusing it since I ended up throwing it out. I think you could reuse it for a couple more uses.
-----------------------------
Total value: $120.26
OMG if this is right. Insane. Great box again. I loved the summer box.
Yuzen just increased their price about $5 in order to meet their costs and survive. I think it's worth it, don't you?
