FabFitFun Summer 2020 Box Review

 


Happy Friday everyone! I hope you had a great week and are looking forward to a fun weekend ahead.  We have a wedding on Saturday then no plans on Sunday! This weekend is the last weekend for a little bit that we have plans because, well, COVID.  I have been enjoying a quieter year, but I do really miss seeing our friends and family.

Today I wanted to talk a bit about the FabFitFun Summer Box that I got! My sister-in-law sent me a starter box for my birthday and I loved everything that came with the box, so naturally I had to order a seasonal box to just give it a try.  For this box, I decided it would be fun to just take their style quiz and see which items they gave me.  As an FYI, you can pick which items you want, I just went ahead and let them pick for me.  The way it works is this: Seasonal members get to pick 3 of the items they receive in their box. After that, the items are up to blind availability.  If you are an annual (or "select") member, you get to pick 5 of your items and are surprised with your last item(s).

Here are the items from the "all members" category I received: 

Item #1: Pottery Barn Mason Ceramic Diffuser in Solstice $59
I go back and forth as to whether or not I loved receiving this item.  I personally LOVE reed diffusers and love to use them, but with cats in the house I cannot use these types of air fresheners in my home.  I did some research on the diffuser hoping it would be pet safe, but everything I found said to keep it out of reach of children and pets.  So I ultimately made the decision to give this item to my mom.  I will say, she loves it and talks about how nice it is all the time, so it must be a great item to have in the house.

Item #2: Hydropeptide Moisture Reset Face Oil $120

If all I got in the box was this facial oil, then I for sure got my money's worth.  With the box being $49.99 per season, this item made the box worth every penny.  I am happy to share that I LOVE this product.  Not only does it work well, it makes my skin feel super soft and smooth.  Now to just make it last because at that price, I'm going to have to think long and hard about purchasing again.  If money was not a consideration, I would 100% buy this item again in the future.

Item #3: TOMS Sydney Glasses $58

Out of all 8 items I receive, these are hands down my favorite items in the box! Not only are they super, super cute, they fit my face nicely.  I am a big fan of anything TOMS, so when I saw these I squealed out loud.  I also want to add that for every pair of these glasses purchased, money is given toward vision services for someone that otherwise would not have those services.  So awesome right?

------------------------------------------

The next section is the section where only Select members would get to choose their items.  I was going in blind to these items no matter what.

Item #4: Silked Satin Pillow Sleeve $29.50
This is again one of those items that I probably would have never purchased for myself, but I am so glad I received this one.  So far since using it, my hair and skin have been feeling so much less chaotic in the mornings.  I don't know if that's just because I'm moving less in my sleep or if it's because of this case, but I am happy with it so far!

Item #5: The Lyfestyle Co. Beach Mist $42
All I need to say is I LOVE this.  As someone with super fair skin and sensitive skin, this product has helped me so much after those days I'm out in the sunshine.  I know my sister-in-law got this in her box too and her and the kiddos love it!

----------------------------------------------

The rest of the items are items that FabFitFun picks for everyone.  You do not get to pick and are surprised with each item! Kinda fun that everyone is on the same playing field for a few of the items.

Item #6: MakeupDrop Hybrid Makeup Applicator $20


This was FabFitFun's first pick for me and I was not disappointed with the product.  However, I do not wear a foundation that requires this type of applicator, so I would not get any used out of the item. I ended up giving it to my sister-in-law because she is more of a makeup wearer than I am and I knew she'd get good use out of it.  And so far she seems to love it.

Another great product to come from the summer box! When I am having a lazy makeup day, I always try to at least do my brows, put on eyeliner and put on some mascara and let me say this brow pencil is awesome.  I love the shape of the pencil and love how my brows look full without looking drawn on.  Definitely a product I will be purchasing again in the future.

Item #8: Spongelle Coconut Verbana Hand Cream $18
I am so excited to share that not only does this smell amazing, it leaves my skin feeling amazing every time I use it.  It has become my go to hand cream and it sits by my computer at my desk so I can use it whenever I feel like my hands can use a little pick-me-up.  And with as much hand sanitizer I've been using these days, it feels like they need more help than ever.

--------------------------------------

Final Thoughts

The total value of my box was $362.50! When I figured out that I got $362.50 for $49.99+shipping my mouth hit the floor.  I will say that going forward I will be customizing my boxes to make sure that I do not get items that I am maybe a bit indifferent toward, but with only being a seasonal box person, I still will be surprised with about 1/2 of the items.  If for some reason the annual subscription goes on sale (more than the already $20 off they give you) then I might go ahead and sign up just to allow myself earlier access and more customization options.
