March Bonjour Jolie special box



Hello again! I really need to catch up with Emma (E.S.), so my mom ordered the special edition Bonjour Jolie box! This box was a limited edition box for $20 which she just ordered a week ago so she was really surprised and excited to see on her door step when we got home from our thrift store adventure! From the looks of it this box is still available. So, let's dive in!





Here's what it looks like when you first get it and open it up! This box was heavy so mom was excited to see what was in it!





 Here's the first impression you get when you pull back the paper, the first thing my mom saw was the Moon Pie so she was already happy!








These are all the little treats you get, there were two Moon Pies (and to quote my mom, "Hot Damn!"), a Russel Stovers caramel heart, some Sweet Tarts, two Land O Lakes hot cocoa packets in french vanilla and warm oatmeal cookie, a handful of Tootsie Rolls and blackberry creme chocolates.






We found out why the box was so heavy! I guess six little bags of bath salts are heavier than they seem! They included three bags of brown sugar and fig and three of chocolate truffle. Both of these salts smell wonderful, but I don't think my mom enjoyed them too much because she doesn't take baths so I think she may re-gift these!




Next is Chocolate Minted hand soap and Chocolate Decadence Soy candles, both of these smell nice and chocolaty and also may be in the re-gifting pile!



 My favorite part, well besides the jewelry, is the tea! I do love Stash! You can tell by the pumpkin spice that these are some that they had laying around and wanted to get rid of, which I'm fine with!





These are flower petals to sprinkle in your bath, they both smell very nice. But whether my mom will use them or not, I don't know. I love things like this which obviously means the wrong person is receiving this box!











My mom liked these products! It's a Bodi Heat pad, which works wonders for cramps! As well as a eye mask, which makes this box a great spa box between this, all the salts and the flowers. Bonjour really wants to make sure you're pampered!













This little bag had some nail care items in it. It had a Sally Hansen color quick pen, a nail art pen, a nail file, cuticle oil, and some nail polish wipes as well as some Bonjour Jolie chap stick. I like the nail art pen because you can draw on your nails. I don't like the color quick pen because they never really work well and they are pretty messy. Mom was just saying she needed more cuticle oil so this came just in time!









Last but not least, the jewelry! These are both very pretty and simple necklaces. One is a silver heart locket and the other is a light purple stone. Both necklaces are nice and simple, and can be worn on a casual day or a special occasion!










So, what do you guys think of the special Bonjour Jolie box? I love the special subscription boxes, not that I myself have gotten to any in time! I plan on ordering this box ASAP as long as they still have it, and if it's different I'll share with you guys! Let us know what you think!

Heavenly Hygienics Review


My Merco Box earlier this month came with a coupon for $5 off a purchase at Heavenly Hygienics, so I made said purchase! There was a mixup with shipping, so they ended up sending me an extra for free!

The Merco Box came with their Cherub Balm lotion bar, which was the "Sweet Spirit" scent. It smelled amazing, but I thought I'd try something different with my coupon.

I ordered a "Fallen Angels" vegetarian soap (one of the soaps not pretty enough for the big time), and it came in "King Soap" scent. It wasn't my favorite smell ever, but it wasn't bad. I gave it to my sister though, since she's been more responsible than me, and has switched to glycerin-free soaps. I also ordered a "Holy Kiss" sweet mint lip balm, which smells great, with a very mild scent.

My bonus item was the Salt of the Earth "Rapture" scented bath salts, which I used today for a very relaxing bath. Plus they sent along a handwritten note, telling me about the products I bought.

I love this place! I'm totally going to buy from them again.
