Julep Diamond Mystery Box

Julep has released  their new mystery box!  It is the Diamond Mystery Box and it has a huge value.  Every box will be valued at over $120.00 and it is only $24.99.  I have never bought a mystery box before, but I was hooked on this one.  One person will get a set of Diamond Earrings (1ct total weight)!!  Oh, my can you imagine?

Every box will be packed with goodies, including the two polishes below:
Antonia (It Girl)

Light pink holographic diamond glitter top coat
Geo (Bombshell)
Lavender holographic diamond glitter top coat

I am really excited for this box.  I love the glitter nail polishes, so the $24.99 cost, is totally worth it, especially since there is $120.00 worth of product in the box.  I would also love to get those earrings.  To buy the Diamond Mystery Box, click HERE.

Brobox October Halloween Box

BroBox sent me this box to review and my husband was kind enough to try out out.  Each month, BroBox sends an assortment of snacks and other goodies for guys.  Brobox always includes fun products, snacks and a surprise item each month.
There are three subscription plans

Single BroBox $14.95 “So you kinda like your Bro but you want to take it slowly”

3 Month Plan “Wingman” $35.00 (Save $5.00) “Your Bro has been there for you through all the B.S. and you want to say thanks.”
6 Month Plan “Best Bro Forever” $72.00 (Save $17.00) “You seriously love your Bro because he’s awesome and makes you feel awesome.”
Shipping
BroBox is shipped the 15th of the month.  All the boxes come in envelopes like you see above.

The Box
I love finding out what goodies are in the BroBox.

 

Benitos Chipotle BBQ Chips
These were pretty tasty.  They area gluten free, high fiber, corn free, all natural no preservatives, no msg, and have 4 grams of protein in a serving.  The best part about these chips are that they are tasty and better for you!
Firehouse Jerky
This jerky is made by Firefighters.  The beef is hand sliced and slow cooked.  C loved the mild beef stick.   He doesn't like hot or spicy foods, so the hot will be given to a friend.
Nurse Noni's Hangover Sucks
These are lozenges that are a drug free way to ease an upset stomach, dry mouth, and will replenish vitamins B and C.  They come in Ginger, Raspberry and Lime. C hasn't had these yet, but they will be nice to have on hand.
Body Glove Surge All Natural Energy Shot in Grape and Tropical Berry
This is an all natural energy shot.  It is filled with green tea, coconut water, protein, honey, and high antioxidant fruits.   There are also no chemicals.  C tried the grape flavor.  He said it had a great smell, but was a bit bitter for his tastes.
S'Up Bro Drawstring Bag
This is a great bag that would be great for your workout gear.
The Whole Box
Final Thought: This was a really nice box.  C liked the bag and the beef jerky the best.  Brobox is a very cool box for guys.  There isn't any fancy creams and lotions.  This is a great box for guys that are hard to buy for.  To sign up for Bro Box, click HERE.

Wantable Makeup Review

Wantable is a subscription box company that has boxes for beauty, intimates and accessories.  I was given the makeup box for review through Tomoson.  The Wantable makeup box is filled with 4-5 full size makeup products based on your preferences.  I really liked the makeup survey because they asked many different questions about my favorite makeup products.  In the end, Wantable made a list of my loves, likes and dislikes.  You will usually get products from your loves and never get any from your dislikes.  I was really excited to get the box and see what was picked out for me.

The Details:
Cost: $36.00 for a subscription or $40.00 for a single purchase.
What's in the box and the subscriptions: 
A.  Makeup: 4 to 5 full-sized premium makeup products, hand-picked to perfectly match your preferences.
B.  Accessories: 3 to 4 boutique accessories, handpicked to perfectly match your preferences.
C.  Intimates:   4 to 5 premium essentials, handpicked to perfectly match your preferences.
Can you pause your subscription?  Yes!
Can you cancel your subscription? Yes!
Can I change my preferences?  Yes, just log into your account.
Wantable: www.wantable.com
The Box
The makeup subscription comes in a small white box with the Wantable “W” on it.  It fit in my mailbox, so I was surprised to see it when I checked my mail.  Most of my boxes are delivered on my doorstep.  It is a really cute little box.
First Look
Information Guide
Lise Watier Haute Lumiere High Shine Lip Gloss Spotlight $22.00
When I first saw this, I thought, wow that is bright.  I tried it and I love it.  It doesn't look that bright on.  It also has a flat applicator that lets you put the gloss on easier.  There is even a light inside the cap and a mirror on the side.  You can put on gloss in a dark car, without blinding your husband with the vanity mirror.  I really love lip gloss, so this product is perfect for me.
Bella Beauty Shine On Lip Gloss Rosie $11.00
I was so excited to see more lip gloss.  This also goes on silky smooth.  This has a nice color and is not sticky.
Rainbow Honey Nail Lacquer Ephermeral $10.00
This is a nice pink glitter nail polish.  Rainbow Honey also included tips to remove the glitter polish.  You soak a cotton ball in nail polish remover, put it on your nail and wrap your finger in foil.
Darla Makeup Peeper Eyeshadow Tiny Tooter $19.00
This is a great shade of purple.  It is something I would buy, so I am thrilled to receive it.  I also love that it has a mirror.
Skiin Instant Skin Tightener and Line Filler Sample

This promises to tighten and life sagging skin and wrinkles in a matter of minutes.  I am in my 30's and don't think I need this.  I will give this to my mom, I think she would enjoy it.

The Box

Final Thought: I really loved this box and in fact, this is my new favorite beauty box.  All the products were products on my love list: eye shadow, lip gloss and nail polish.  I really like how Wantable took into my loves, likes and dislikes into account.  The box really felt personalized to me.  The total value of this box was $62.00.  I am signing up for a subscription for Wantable.  If you would like to try Wantable, click HERE.

This post contains referral links.  I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Stork Stack is one of my favorite boxes for my son T.  Stork Stack is $27.99 a month and each month ,your child gets 5 products (1 is usually a mom gift) that are curated for your child's age and gender.  Stork Stack sends new and unique products from your 3rd trimester through your child's 3rd birthday.  I box this month is for a 20 month old boy.  This month's box is the “Lunch Box Stack”.  All the items in the box are geared around family meal time.
The Box
I love Stork Stack's boxes.  They are so colorful and I like the little bundles with hearts on them.
Baby Legs Blocks Legwarmers $6.00
T has never worn baby legs, but these are so cute, I may try them.  Stork Stack said these are perfect to keep your baby's legs warm when you strip them down to eat.  I am very picky about my kids getting their clothes dirty (they have play clothes), so these will be perfect.  I also hear these are perfect for potty training.  I love the color blocking and that they were go well with so many things.
Child's Play 10 Fat Sausages $5.39
I like Child's Play books.  This is a nice hard board book.  The book is about 10 fat sausages.  There is texturized  areas of the book.  T will really like this book and I like that he can't tear the pages.
Inside of the Book
Spuds Open Plate $9.99
This plate is made from reclaimed potatoes.  This is non toxic, all natural and biodegradable.  I love that it fits on the high chair flat.  T loves to feed himself and this is a great plate for him.
Larabar Uber Roasted Nut Roll $1.68

This is non GMO, koshier, and gluten free.  It is made with  almonds, dried cherries, brown rice syrup, pecans, raisins, cashews, dates, honey, and sea salt.

I was a bit disappointed when I first saw this, but then I thought of all the traveling we will be doing the next few months.  This is perfect for some cups of milk and snacks for my little guy.  The pattern is super cute too.
The Box

Final Thought: The total value for this box is $39.05.  This is a pretty nice box.  I really like the Spuds plate and want to get more items from the company.  Our family loves books and we will love reading this book together.  The lunchbox will come in handy the next few months when we travel for the holidays.  The baby legs are super cute and I am going to try the Larabar.   If you are interested in signing up, click HERE and use the code EA4827B9, you will save $10.00 on your first box.

New Subscription Box: Nadine West Review and Giveaway for the First 50 People

Nadine West is a new subscription service that sends fashion and jewelry to your door for FREE, that's right, FREE.  When Nadine West asked me to review their subscription, I was very intrigued and said yes.  When you sign up for Nadine West, you fill out a style profile online and then Nadine West will send you a shirt or dress plus 2-4 pieces of jewelry.  They will authorize your card for the amount of the items.  You will not be charged (it will show as pending).  Obviously, if they didn't do this, people would just keep the items without paying.  I was sent just jewelry for my review.

 

The Details:
Cost: FREE
Jewelry and Clothing Costs: Red Bagged Items: $24.99
                                               Purple Bagged Items: $17.99
                                               Black Bagged Items: $9.99
                                               Shirts: $13.49
How much is shipping?  Free both ways.  They send you postage to put on you envelope, when you want to return items.
What is the pending charge on my card? From Nadine West:
“Short Answer: The Pending Charge will NOT apply to your account until the end of your two-week period is up (if you keep all/some of the items). It is only present to ensure you have enough funds on your card to cover the potential charge amount. At the end of the two week period, the reserved funds will vanish without capturing the amount on your card if you do not choose to keep items. This method is NOT charging and refunding an amount as the pending amount never pushes through as an actual charge.
In short: it’s a safety net to make sure people have the ability to pay for items without actually charging them.
More Detail: Credit card companies are tricky. Since we’re sending valuable jewelry to you and aren’t charging up-front, the only manner we can verify that people can pay is by “authorizing” the amount via your credit card company. All this means is that the credit card company authorizes that you have the necessary funds to cover a certain amount, should you need it. The amount will appear on your pending charges, but will not become permanent until we “capture” the amount, which occurs after your two week period IF you decide to keep any of your items. “
When am I charged:  You are charged for any items you haven't sent back after 2 weeks.
Can I skip months?  Yes, just email [email protected]
How do I cancel? Email [email protected]
The Package
Nadine West ships everything in these nice pink reusable envelopes
 The contents were wrapped in tissue paper
Package Details and Contents
Nadine West send an card with the prices of all the items with directions on how to mail back what you don't want.  They also send labels with their information and yours to put on the label, stickers to seal the envelope and return postage.  I was also send a thank you letter for my review

 

Information Card
This is the standard card that will come with your package
The Jewelry
 I was sent a purple bag: $17.99 and a black bag: $9.99
Sumni Necklace $17.99
 I would not pick this out, but I like it.  It's not too big and it's very unique.  I like that it is a pretty versatile piece and would look great with a plain top.
Mia Collection Turquoise Earrings $9.99
 These are very pretty and are very reasonably priced. These are a bit bigger than what I usually wear.  I will give these to my mother for Christmas.  She will love them.
My Whole Package

Final Thought:  This is a very unique subscription service.  I love that it's FREE .  You can get jewelry shipped to your home and return it, without ever paying anything.  I really like the jewelry I was sent.  You will have to make sure there is room on your card for the items they send (as there will be a pending charge, until you return your unwanted items).  This is a great way to find new tops and jewelry items risk free.  Nadine West has also given me a giveaway for the first 50 people that sign up.  See details below.

FREE $10.00 credit to your account
This means, not only will you be able to use Nadine West free, but you will get $10.00 toward the purchase of items in your shipment.
