As indicated by the last time that I actually posted some empties which was last summer, I’m incredibly slow to use up products, but nonetheless I’m excited to have a little haul of trash that I get to share with you all today! As usual, it’s all skincare with one body product thrown in just to shake things up a bit.
Boxwalla’s August Beauty Box reunites its recipients with cult-favorite (and Boxwalla fan-favorite) Votary London, showcasing two full-sized exquisitely beautiful products whose flower extracts whisper secrets from petal, to our skin.
I’ve been bursting at the seams to introduce the blog to See New Skincare, a spectacular skincare subscription box service that has captured the hearts and minds of many in the green beauty space as of late. If you’re on Insta, your #texturetuesday feeds have likely been filled with features from this month’s Forest Rhapsody box, especially of the golden gelly cleanser you see above.
It feels like a good minute (a good 4 months, more like!) since we’ve last chatted on Boxwalla’s latest offerings which has me thrilled to bring you this month’s review. June’s box reunites us with efficacious and insanely sensorial Lovinah Skincare, as last featured in their August beauty box (review here) and in the infamous limited edition makeup + skincare box that brought us their gorgeous eyeshadow palette.
Themed “Perhaps the Butterflies are Real“, Boxwalla’s June Beauty Box* showcases three products from Lovinah, including two full-sizes of their Power Vitamin C Cleansing Balm and Blue Butterfly Stem Cell Hydration Mask, and a 30ml trial-size of their brand new launch – the Goddess Glow Shimmering Body Oil. I’ll be sharing everything you need to know on these lovely items today and while subscriptions have since closed, I’m happy to report that the June box is now available for purchase as a One-Time box at the Boxwalla shop.
It’s officially the first week of Summer and I’ve been itching to share my new nightly ritual for the season that includes two pieces from Yina’s re-launched skincare collection. I adored a number of items from their original collection, first having experienced their Lucent mist & oil duo courtesy of Boxwalla’s summer 2019 beauty box, and later others including their cleanser, sheet masks and decolletage balm all of which were kept for the brand re-launch.
Honestly, how cute is skincare-branded merch? Stickers, totes, hoodies – I love it all – even though you can feel like a walking advertisement at times, ha! Warmer days and summer vibes are upon us and I’m pumped to be protected and summer-ready with Cocokind’s Bucket Hat ($29) made with canvas (recycled cotton) and it features a reversible style – one side says “Cocokind” and the other “Wear SPF”.
