Verdict: I love how the focus of this month’s Nature’s Wellness box is all about self-care and loving yourself! This is something that everyone should put a lot more care and focus towards. Each month the Nature’s Wellness Box helps make it that much easier on all of us to do just that and try a few new, amazing products too! I cannot wait to try out the Natural Toothpaste Tabs. I have seen similar ones advertised in years past. Now I get to see for myself what all the hype is about. Another product that I am looking forward to trying is the Crème Rose. I have never heard about this cream before I started googling it and it has some great reviews! This month my Nature’s Wellness Box did not come with the printed off brochure instead I was sent it via emailed. I’m not sure how others feel, but I love the idea of a paperless information brochure!

Verdict: I was so excited to receive my Nature’s Wellness box in the mail this month. It is a fun surprise that I look forward to each month because I know that each of the products are going to improve the way I feel both inside and outside my body. Since having received my first box last month, I have activity been trying to think and be mindful of what I am using on my body and putting in my body. I was happy to see such a different assortment of items than last month, yet they are along the same product line focusing on health and wellness. I loved that it included pampering products, as well as, some very practical and useful products too. My favorite products this month would be the face sunscreen and the beeswax wrap. My family spends lots of time enjoying the outdoors and this sunscreen is an essential for my daily life in protecting my skin. I have seen beeswax wraps around over the last few years but never knew much about them. I am so thankful that I am now able to try one out…who knows maybe I’ll have to purchase a few more later on!

My Customization Picks:

Draper James Straw Bag With Floral Scarf – $75

This Draper James bag is my favorite item this season in my FabFitFun box! I am so in love with it! Reese Witherspoon has been my favorite actresses since I was a little girl, watching the movie, Man in the Moon, so choosing this bag was a no-brainer. The bag is even more beautiful in person! It is the perfect bag to start off this summer right, looking fun and flirty!

R+Co TELEVISION Perfect Hair Shampoo + Conditioner – $64

I chose this shampoo and conditioner duo because I wanted a high-quality product with great reviews that I would probably never purchase this for myself. It was the perfect splurge. At $64 for the combo, I will use this sparingly, at least until my next FabFitFun. I cannot wait to try these out tonight!

Drybar Prep Rally Prime & Prep Detangler – $23

When choosing this detangler, I thought it would be the perfect compliment for my R+Co shampoo and conditioner. The reviews were amazing and having long, thick, wavy hair, I could always use help easing the chore of brushing and straightening it, while maintaining it’s health.

My Surprises:

Zoe Ayla® Ice Roller – $30

Would I ever purchase this myself?… No! But so far, my whole family has enjoyed playing with the ice roller. Maybe this is a beauty tool that will become more useful as I am getting older?! Also, I know my kids will love using it on their mosquito bites!

The Lyfestyle Co Beach Mist After Sun Spray – $42

For someone that is prone to getting burnt, I look forward to trying this Aloe, mint and lavender after sun mist. I will be storing it in the refrigerator to cool and refresh my skin on those hot summer days!

Winky Lux Uni-Brow Universal Eyebrow Pencil – $16

Eek… how did someone know I need my eyebrows enhanced?! My only hope is that it is easy to use and looks natural.

MakeupDrop Hybrid Makeup Applicator – $20

I have seen these all around for a few years now, but never tried one for myself. So I am excited to finally have my own! Guess I need to start wearing more make-up now!

Spongellé Coconut Verbena Hand Cream – $18

Coconut anything is my favorite, and this hand cream is no exception. It makes my hands feel smooth, hydrated and it smells delicious!!!

Each season you will also get the FabFitFun magazine featuring a detailed description of all the seasons items, special articles on the charity – Special Olympics, and a feature article about the cover girl – Gabby Douglas.

Each box also has coupons inside. This month I got coupons for Green Chef and Bright Cellars, unfortunately us, Canadian cannot use these.

Total Value… $288 usd

All for only $50 usd

Learn more about the FabFitFun Subscription Box!

Verdict: It has been awhile since I got a FabFitFun and it is so nice to get one again! I forgot how much I loved it!!! This Summer box was extra special because I got to customize a few of my favorite items. It still felt like a surprise when they came in the mail, but I was guaranteed to get at least some awesome useful products too, even if there were a few products I didn’t care for. When I added up the total price for all the items in my box, I was blown away… $288 usd for only $50 usd ($10 coupon and $8 shipping to Canada). Just the Draper James bag alone was more than the cost of the box! For myself, this box is an amazing value. It is a wonderful treat every season and I feel like I am spoiled and got some great deals! This FabFitFun Summer box was a late Mother’s Day present from my husband and kids, so unfortunately, you cannot purchase this box anymore. They do have the FabFitFun Summer Editor’s Box available, filled with favorites from past boxes!

I am busy and happily enjoying this box and I cannot wait for my next FabFitFun Box!
