I can hardly believe it's July already, well 7th July as I write this! The months are really flying by this year and as they do my monthly treats are stacking up. It was with great anticipation that my Spoilabox arrived again this week, particularly as it arrived amid a truly challenging day!
This is the second month of my subscription to Spoilabox and also only their second month so I'm still very much surprised by what they contain. It's lovely having absolutely no idea what's coming (bar the odd spoiler of course!) and, yet again, I'm thoroughly pleased with both the contents and the service. The box was dispatched on almost the first day of the month and arrived without hassle via My Hermes who this time left it in my meter cupboard (a whole day earlier than they had estimated, bonus!). Again the contents was well packaged with a sturdy cardboard outer shell and a pretty tissue paper wrap inside. All the products arrived intact with no damage which is always welcome after you hear such horror stories from the packaging of some products!
On to the contents
This time the box contained eight products - 6 full-sized and two samples. The full size products total a rrp in excess of £30 so not a bad haul for the £13. 99+ p&p of the box although I think I would like to see some more higher end products in the future (which I think will come as the box gains momentum, it's hard getting those bigger names on board in the early days!)
Two bottles of Korres shower gel
I'm not entirely sure why there were two of these in the box but I'm not arguing! The higher value product of this months subscription, one really smells lovely, one is perhaps not to my taste but I think will make a good gift. Looking into it I love the products ethos and look forward to seeing how I get on with them - I'm loving trying products I've never bothered really looking at before and finding out they suit our way of life!
Boozi Body Care
I love this hand-cream! The smell is divine and as soon as I popped a sample onto my hand I couldn't stop myself from going back for a sniff! The little canister it comes in is very useful too as it will fit nicely into my little mummy bag (you know, the bag where you have to cram provisions in for every eventuality when you have kids!) and there's no danger of it getting crushed and exploding everywhere. Definitely my new go to hand cream!
Betty Hula
These are the tiniest samples I think I ever did see! But they're super cute all the same! I think there's probably just enough to give a brief introduction to the products, an oil and a moisturising cream, but I doubt there's enough to really get me hooked. I believe the next box will contain more Betty Hula products though so definitely one to keep an eye on.
Naked Marshmallows
Handmade marshmallows, how can you go wrong?! I got the candyfloss flavour and I have to say they're the best marshmallows I've ever eaten! To be fair, I've only had the shop bought dried out variety previously, never homemade, but I simply can't believe the difference! These are so soft and gooey... the flavour is a bit different and I'm not sure I'd pick the same again, oh and they're very rich so you'd only want one or two at a time, but these will definitely be finding their way into my shopping basket some time in the future!
Tony Moly
Another face-mask - I seem to be amassing these at the moment via the various boxes. It's not that I don't want them, I'm intrigued by all the different versions and look forward to pampering myself sometime, I just haven't had the time to do so yet and I also want to look into them all a bit further. I think face-masks are one area where some nasties can sneak in and before I start using them I'd like to learn a little more about their ingredients (in general, not necessarily just this one!)
Fish Scale Brush
I think this can be put down as the random element of the box! I love it!! Apart from the fact that it's a bit different and I love different, it's so so soft! I'm not sure what I'm going to use it for and I probably should gift it on to my sister who would also really love it but I just can't part with this one!
So overall I think I can safely say this box is another big hit! I'm looking forward to seeing how the business grows over the next few months.
