My First Yumvelope -- Oct. 2013

Today I got my first Yumvelope https://www.yumvelope.com/ ,this is a monthly shipment sending out 6 or more full sized all-natural products from little-known food manufacturers around the country.

I really enjoyed my Yumvelope. Here is what I got in my first box and my first impressions.

Good Life Granola http://www.goodlifegranola.com/

$6.50 12oz bag

First Impressions – I received Apple Crisp in my Yumvelope and unfortunately I am allergic to nuts and the apple crisp contains almonds so I was unable to try it. However, my husband and son both tried it and gave it a high thumbs up. They really liked it.

Two Moon Shortbread  http://twomoonbklyn.com/?page_id=1910

Single Flavor Eight Piece box is $7.00

First Impressions – I received Bergamot & Chocolate Chip individually wrapped shortbread cookies and it contained two cookies. So the cost is around $2. I didn’t really like this cookie. It didn’t really taste like a shortbread cookie or a chocolate chip cookie. My son tried it and like it though. So it comes down to individual tastes definitely.

Eco Teas  - Rooibos Chai http://www.yerbamate.com/

Box of 24 tea bags is $5.49

First Impressions – I am typically not a tea drinker. However, I love chai tea and since this is a chai tea and smells heavenly I can definitely see myself drinking this. I am excited to try it out.  Stay tuned to my blog for further reviews on this product.

Savannah Bee Co. Grill Honey http://www.savannahbee.com/product/Grill-Honey/ST-521

3oz jar Grill honey $5.50

First Impression – We are huge grillers at our house and I can’t wait to use this product, stay tuned to further reviews on this product.

Sun Cups –Nut Free – Gluten Free  http://suncups.com/

(1)    Milk Chocolate (1) Mint Chocolate (1) Caramel Chocolate  $0.75 each

First Impression – Like I mentioned I am allergic to nuts and any product I can eat where I don’t have to worry about my allergies and I can just enjoy the food especially I love it.  It’s so wonderful to find products now that or dedicated to being allergy sensitive. BTW – they were delicious!!!

**Overall –I really enjoyed my Yumvelope the monthly cost to have this delivered is $21.00 and the cost of the products in the box was over that ($21.74 to be exact). I will be continuing my subscription for now. Stay tuned for further reviews and vlogs.

Glossybox Sept. 2013

I received my first Glossybox this month.

  Although my Sept. 2013 Glossybox came on Oct. 5th and I knew everything that was in the box. I still enjoyed opening it and going through my exciting products. So here is my thoughts now that I have had a chance to paw through them myself. The great part were the full size products in the box.
   Bon Genre Eau De Parfum Spray travel spray has a nice citrus undertone with a floral smell that I really enjoy. I think this would be a great night on the town scent more then a day wear scent.(Price point -- 1.7 fl. oz. $55.00)
   Oceane Make Up Remover I didn't really try this product out. I'm a little worried about putting this product close to my eye. So the jury is still out on this one.(Price Point -- $3.99)
   Emite Makeup Professional Eyelash Curler I was thrilled to get this eyelash curler, my current eyelash curler gave up the ghost and fell apart just days before and I am a die hard daily lash curler. This is a well put together device, that I believe will last a long time. (Price point -- $31.07)
   Nioxin Diamax is a wonderful product. I have thick hair, but because I color my hair my ends are dry and break I use this product mid-length to the ends of my hair.
   Be a Bombshell Cosmetics Onxy Eyeliner Pen I cannot give a review on this product as I did not open it. I have several eyeliners pens that I use and therefore didn't want to open another one. But stay tuned when and if I open it I will review it.
  

OVERALL

This being my first Glossybox I have to say I really enjoyed it and can't wait until next months. Until I can say I hate it I will continue to subscribe.
