Spring in Spain: April Boxwalla Beauty Review | TWELVE BEAUTY

Posted on March 31, 2021April 9, 2021 by Mercy with Leave a comment

Spring has sprung, nature’s in bloom, and it’s also time for Boxwalla’s latest seasonally appropriate beauty box to launch – things are looking up friends! Boxwalla’s April Beauty Box reunites us with Spanish-brand Twelve Beauty and features two products to help calm stressed skin + fortify the skin’s barrier during this seasonal transition for optimum health and radiance – I know I certainly need all the help I can get during this time.

Themed “Spring in Spain“, the April Beauty Box* includes full sizes of Twelve Beauty’s Intelligent Frontier Facial Oil – a lightweight oil serum brimming with nutrition and Nutritive Repair Emulsion – a night time barrier repair cream with an ultra light finish. This box has a total retail value of $287, but as usual it rings in at just $49.95. Subscriptions are open until April 25th, so there’s plenty of time to reserve your box.

REVIEW: MŪN Protect + Revive Moisturizer

Posted on February 26, 2021March 30, 2021 by Mercy with Leave a comment

MUNimALISM

My love for MŪN Skincare has been severely understated on the blog, as I find myself much more active on Instagram and its quick-to-share Stories, unfortunately depriving my blog of the good stuff and the things that I’m loving. That’s changing today, because I’m dedicating a special post to MUN Skincare’s newly-reformulated Protect + Revive Moisturizer. This has been my sole go-to since December (it’s the only moisturizer I’ve been using!) and it’s truly been getting my skin by for what feels like a particularly harsh winter for the South. Today we’ll be going over P+R’s ingredients, what’s different about its newly refined formula, and my overall experience with it. When MŪN so generously sent this moisturizer over to me, she also sent along their Japanese-inspired Anarose Hydrating Toner (which was already a big favorite of mine!) which I want to share a few notes on as well. HEADS UP – if you’re interested in a MUN discount code, scroll to the bottom of this review or find it on the sidebar!

The Poetry of Beauty & Rain: February Boxwalla Beauty feat. NINI ORGANICS

Posted on February 21, 2021March 30, 2021 by Mercy with Leave a comment

When things are going wrong in my life I look to my beauty products for therapy and I must share that Boxwalla’s latest beauty box has been a welcome respite from the insanity. A rare and destructive winter storm just passed over us here in the woefully unprepared southern states and beyond that I’ve totally been over the cold weather, the clouds, and other minor flooding disasters that were occurring in my home prior to the storm, and are still occurring now.

December Boxwalla Beauty – winter essentials feat. BLÜH ALCHEMY & LIVE BOTANICAL

Posted on November 16, 2020March 30, 2021 by Mercy with Leave a comment

I’m back this week to shower you all with MORE Boxwalla goodness! In my last post & review on the October box, I mentioned that there is a lot going on in the Boxwalla universe with the numerous limited edition gift offerings that were launched alongside their monthly boxes in time for the holidays. I went over that month’s box (which is currently still available on the store as a One-Time Box), the Fine Cosmetics limited edition skin + body box, and I gave a brief overview on the three limited edition haircare boxes that they have on offer. Since that post, I’ve had some time to get acquainted with the December box products and to my surprise, Boxwalla also sent along with it one of their haircare boxes which I have gotten to know and love – and am obsessed with it as you may be able to tell if you follow me on Instagram. We’ll be going over these two boxes today – all the details and my product experiences thus far.

Themed “The Textures of Winter“, the December Beauty Box* showcases three products that allow us to experience the gorgeous textures of Winter magic. It features three full-size products from two luxury brands, including: BLUH Alchemy’s Multi C Serum & freshly launched Active Relief Body Oil, and Live Botanical’s Sanctuary Barrier Balm. I’m thrilled to share that there’s still plenty of time to sign up for this box as of this posting – subscriptions are open until December 15th for last-minute holiday shopping. This box runs for $49.95 and has a whopping retail value of $250.

Curious Comfort of Skincare-like Things: August Boxwalla Beauty Review

Posted on August 31, 2020August 31, 2020 by Mercy with Leave a comment

Let me begin my August Boxwalla review with a small apology for not having this review up sooner! I intended to get this review up when I had posted my review on the August limited edition box, but two separate health issues had me down for a large part of the month and got in the way of a few reviews I had wanted to get up this month. I regret to mention that the August box is sold out and that there aren’t any one-time boxes available, but if you have any interest in the featured products do read on because I have genuinely fallen in love with this month’s box.
