Yuzen Box: Spring 2014 Edition

Hello! Today I have another subscription box unboxing / review for you. I've been loving subscription boxes lately and this is definitely one of my favorites! Here is what I received in the Spring 2014 subscription (blue) box.  

The Subscription Box: Yuzen

The Cost: $33 a quarter

The Products: Eco-friendly products to nourish the body and soul

Even the packaging is gorgeous! 

Sumbody Bathmelt – Value $5.50

Sumbody Sum Fizzer – Value $5.95

I'm weird when it comes to baths--I believe the last time I took one, I was about six. I might actually have to overcome my "fears" and take a bath soon (bring out the bleach!) thanks to these awesome products I want to try. 

Balanced Guru Body Balm – 1 oz Value $12

Sranrom Urban Wellness Calm Down Hand Cream – 1.06 oz Value $5?

Acure Radical Resurfacing Facial Treatment - 1 oz Value $14

Something for your face, hands, and body. Both hand and body cream are very moisturizing. I love how this box gives you a little bit of everything and not just five hand creams...

Chocolove Cherries & Almonds in Dark Chocolate – Value $2

A little nervous to try this. Love dark chocolate..cherries, not so much. 

Lotus Wei Infinite Love Mist Mini – Value $8

Sranrom Votive Candle in Lemongrass – Lemon – Spearmint– Value $7?

Cost of Box: $33

Total Value: $59.45

Final Thoughts: If you're looking to treat yourself to a spa day, this is the perfect box for you! High end products, fantastic sample sizes, and beautiful packaging. My favorite thing is that you are always guaranteed a box valued over $50, so you don't have to worry about getting your moneys-worth!

Pijon Box: Winter Edition

Pijon Box is a monthly subscription care-package box for college students. Each box usually includes some essential basics, plus some other fun or healthy items you might hope to find in a care package! Here is what's in my Pijon Box: Winter Edition!

The Cost: $29 a month or $25 a month with 6-month subscription.

The Products: 5-6 products in the following categories: food and snacks, health and beauty, essentials, and awesome accessories and gadgets.

Frava Naturally Caffeinated Juice: $2.99 Mine was in the flavor Peach-Mango and I'm still a little nervous to try it because I'm not a big mango fan at all.

Vapur Reflex Foldable Waterbottle: $7.99 loved getting this because I needed another water bottle. All of my other ones I left back at home. 

SmartyPants On the Go Vitamins:  $5.99 (for a four pack). This is kinda pricy for vitamins, so I don't think I'd buy these but they were nice to try. Tasted sweet like a gummy and only a mild taste of vitamin.

JimmyBar, Vegan, Gluten-Free, All-Natural Granola Bar: $2.49 I got the peanut butter and apple flavors. Let me tell you what, these were hands down the star of the box for me. I LOVE THEM! I originally thought they were going to be crunchy, but they were chewy--even better. You can actually read all the ingredients in them, they kept me full, and they are DELICIOUS. I was worried about not liking the apple flavored one, but I was very pleasantly surprised. 

Richer Poorer Premium Socks: $11.99 I am so happy with the color I got! Adorable.

 Girls Can Tell Notebook: $9.99 Not impressed, even considering that it is made from recycled paper. Not quite sure who would pay nearly $10 for this, especially since it only has around 20 pages... with weird squares…

Total Value: $41.44

Cost of Box: $29

Overall, I definitely got my moneys worth in this Pijon Box. I got a little bit of everything which I love, and this would be a great care package gift from my parents. Even if you don't subscribe to this box, go try a JimmyBar--seriously, go.
