Everything that came in my Immune Boosting Box from Sips By
So what is all this stuff?
Our insert talks about each of the teas included in the box and also includes discount codes good for further purchases.
Tulsi Turmeric Ginger Tea by Organic India
The first tea in my box are these four bags of Turmeric and Ginger from Tulsi Tea from Organic India. I have tried this tea in the past and really enjoy it. Because it’s caffeine free it’s a great option for evenings and the turmeric helps fight off infection!
Organic Rooibos Tea from My Red Tea
Next up in my box are these four bags from new to me brand My Red Tea. This rooibos tea just one ingredient, organic single origin rooibos from South Africa.
Boost Sips by Tea Drops
Tea Drops is a brand that I find really interesting as what they offer is so unique and innovative. This “tea sprinkles” boasts medium caffeine and can be poured into hot water and dissolved. The blend is organic matcha powder, organic lemon powder and organic ginger powder. There were four packets included in my box.
Immunity Booster Tea from Tealyra
The final tea in my box for the month is the Immune Booster from another new to me brand, Tealyra. This is loose leaf and includes; red rooibos, ginseng, tulsi, lemon peel, orange peel, hibiscus, ginger root, rose hips, cinnamon, rose petals, marigold flowers, orange, vanilla flavoring.
So in summary
Presentation: Everything was packaged well and arrived to me perfectly in my box from Sips by
Quality: I love that Sips by includes lesser known brands and lots of organic ingredients
Curation: These immune boosting teas are great for this time of year!

My first glimpse inside the BoxyCharm package for September
Everything that came in my BoxyLuxe for September. While this is a great box I wish it didn’t take so long to get here.
So what is all this stuff?
My box insert. This month’s theme is, “Glam Vibes Only”
The reverse lists each of the items that was included in my box along with the variation #22
Kitsch Ice Roller
$18
First up in my box is an item I’m not considerably excited about, there were really popular to put in boxes about a year or so ago and because of that I have a few rolling around. Regardless, it will make a nice Christmas gift.
111Skin Rose Gold Brightening Facial Treatment Mask
$135
This set of 5 sheet masks from 111Skin seems really overpriced if you ask me… and while I know sometimes the ingredients that they use are a factor… $135?! I feel like sheet masks are kind of over but I may try one just to see if it lives up to it’s price tag.
Kate Somerville Exfolikate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment
$85
The item that I chose for my box for the month is a cult classic, the Exfolikate Exfoliator from Kate Somerville. While this is a little bit too intense for my skin I do like to have it around for when I need a good treatment. I also love that it smells like cloves!
Fenty Beauty Killawatt Freestyle Highlighter
$36
One of the items that I was most excited to have received in this box is the Killawatt Freestyle Highlighter from Fenty Beauty. I have never used a single Fenty Beauty product.
So a bunch of people got some weird colors in their Boxy Luxe – I have to say that I was lucky and got Afternoon Snack / Mo-Hunny which are GORGEOUS and multipurpose. If you want to see swatches watch the unboxing.
Persona Cosmetics Season One Lip Gloss
$16
Next up we have the Persona Cosmetics ( a new to me brand) lip gloss. This is nice and smells like chocolate cake. If you’d like to see it swatched refer to the unboxing Jeeves.
Hipdot Zion Palette
$30
The item that was most surprising in my box for the month is this huge palette from (another new to me brand) Hipdot. I wasn’t excited based on the way this looks…
But wowee you have to check out the swatches in my video to see how high performing these eyeshadows are! Gorgeous and mostly matte which I love!
Pur The Complexion Authority Signature Travel Essentials 12 Piece Brush Set
$49
This brush set from Pur is by far my favorite item in this box. Not only do we get 12 brushes made to travel but we also get this really cool travel case. It’s not very tall so it won’t work with ALL my brushes but it will work with a lot which will make travel that much easier. I do also love the bright pink color as well.
Milk Makeup Melatonin Overnight Serum
$36
The final item in my box for the month is this overnight serum from Milk Makeup. I love overnight masks because I get lots of results for my overly dry skin. So I’m pretty pumped to give this a shot. Something about the packaging is really appealing as well!
So in summary
Presentation: My box for the month was late but it did arrive to me in perfect condition
Quality: I feel like BoxyCharm is always hustling to not only bring us high end items but they also really try to follow trends and stay current which is pretty cool
Curation: This assortment was really nice. I will use everything that I received except for that roller.
Box Economy: For the price of this box ($50) I received $405 in products which is a phenomenal deal!
