When it comes to summer, I always think of packing for camp with trial-size beauty products. It was an exciting time for me because I was allowed to try new products that usually wouldn’t be an option. And, oh how I loved their cute little packaging!

FabFitFun Summer VIP Box - Make sure to sign up so you can start getting a box full of happies every 3 months!

Well, with FabFitFun VIP box ($49.99/every 3 months), any season can remind me of new summer beauty products! But while the packaging is super cute, the products are neither small nor trial size.

This was my second VIP box to enjoy and I enjoyed it even more than the first!

In this Summer VIP box came:

*Evian Facial Spray (rehydrating & refreshing)

*it Haircare Surf Spray (for beautiful, beachy waves)

*Orly Nail Polish in a fab & fun neon orange

*Infinity Sun Glow On The Go self-tanner

*Catalina Su lip gloss (a shimmering, pink champagne shade)

*YES to Cucumbers Soothing Towlettes.

*A maple glazed pecan & sea salt  KIND bar

And, then there were my 2 FAVE products –

*Purlisse Pur-Delicate Gentle Soy Milk cleanser and

*Ivory+Mason hip-meets-retro sunglasses!

I love both these brands and the fact that they were in my VIP box this month definitely made me feel a little summer lovin’!

If you wanna get a little seasonal lovin’ from FabFitFun VIP, just use this code to get $10 off your first VIP box: If you want to sign up use code 652254 for $10 off your first box!

As a FabFitFun featured blogger, I had the distinct honor (and giddy glee) of getting to experience a sneak preview of Giuliana Rancic’s new FabFitFun VIP box!

 

FabFitFun VIP box ($49.99 every 3 months) for a fab, fit & fun season!

 

I can never recommend beauty box programs highly enough! They’re such a treat for people who want to receive goodies – like a blogger – but don’t have the time or desire to write about them! It’s like Christmas, or your birthday, on a regular basis. Who doesn’t love that?

For a nominal fee ($49.99/every 3 months) with FabFitFun VIP, you get a seasonal box brimming with beauty, fitness & lifestyle booty. Estimated value of each box? Around $120. So you’re getting a deal here, beauties!

And with Giuliana and editor-in-chief, Katie Ann Rosen Kitchens, personally selecting the season’s hottest products themselves, you’re sure to add some gorgeous and glamour to your life. Plus, randomly selected winners will win super-fab bonus gifts! Like what? Like how about designer clothes, shoes and iPad minis?!

My first box arrived last week and I was delighted with the contents! DEEEEELIGHTED, I tell you!

What was in it?

Inside the VIP...

 

FabFitFun VIP Spring 2013 Contents:
MoroccanOil ($42.99 for 3.4 oz): This uber-nourishing formula transforms dull, dry, frizzy hair into the shiny, luxe locks you’ve always wanted! Packed with fatty acids, omega-3 oils, vitamin and antioxidants, this deluxe oil guards against spring weather and adds serious shine.

Moroccan oil retails normally for $42.99 for this 3.4 oz size. Niiiiiiiice.

Zoya Nail Polish by FabFitFun ($8): A longwearing, toxin-free pretty polish in FabFitFun Fuchsia!

Jouer Lip Gloss (mini): This glamorous, super kissable lip gloss is guaranteed to create the perfect pout. Loaded with vitamins, shea butter, jojoba oil and pomegranate seed oil, your lips will stay smooth and hydrated.

Think Thin Bar ($1.99): Get bikini body ready by snacking smarter this spring. We love this healthy, delish, nutritional bar. Mine was the creamy peanut butter flavor! Nummy.

Jewelmint Jewels: A gorgeous selection fit for me to be as fabulous as ever! While the jewels from Jewelmint vary from box to box, my cascading star necklace was perfect for me!

**Surprise Bonus Gifts: Now, here’s where it gets really fun, ladies! My surprise gifts included a Josie Maran Magic Marker Lip Stain with Argan Color Stick in Waltz ($21), Butter London nail polish in Wallis ($15) and a GO SMILE On The Go Teeth Whitening Pen ($22). WOWZA!! You had me at Josie Maran but then to get the rest of these goodies? I’m sold.

 

I’m already excited about what’s coming in next season’s box! And that Josie Maran magic marker ($21) is that sweet soft berry rose I can’t wait to rock this spring with a smoky eye.

 

Josie Maran Magic Marker Lip Stain & Argan Color Stick in Waltz ($21)

 

Also, you can expect the goodies to get a little better each season as they begin to customize each box based on your personal style and needs. So, let me get this straight. Basically it’s like Santa bringing you your wish list – or at least what our Beauty Santa thinks we should be wishing for. I love it!

So become a VIP today! Head on over to FabFitFun and let these seasonal boxes help you be your most FAB, FIT and FUN you ever!!

Mailbox Monday: Eco-Emi: Glamour you can feel good about!

Posted on by

Happy Monday morning, beauties!
You ready for a great week?
It’s gonna be a good one!

In honor of Earth Day and all things good and pure, I want to tell you about one of my favorite discoveries I’ve made this year: Eco-Emi beauty box service.

It’s a box bustling with green glamorous goodies delivered directly to your mailbox!

Eco-Emi

I just opened my Eco-Emi March box and was just thrilled to see all the goodness that came in it! Yaya!!

I will be the first one to tell you that I am not the perfect example of eco-friendly living. I am no green queen by any means. But I am learning and I learn something every day about eco-friendly living – whether it be a new way to reuse and recycle, or (MY FAVORITE!!), a new beauty product that is eco-conscious. I’m sure a few of you out there can relate.

Which is why it’s a good thing that I met Christine of Eco-Emi.

She is THE green queen and each month I receive my Eco-Emi beauty box, I’m a little closer to green-queedom, thanks to her mindfully-selected products.

So what is Eco-Emi?

Eco-Emi is a beauty box chock-full of green beauty goodies. What are green beauty goodies? They are natural, organic, green, eco-friendly, cruelty-free, vegan, vegetarian or Fair Trade products that you can feel proud to try and buy.

And For only $15 per month, why wouldn’t you try?
Every month, you get a prettily-packaged, thoughtful selection of beauty goodies, hand-selected by green queen, Christine herself, to try. And believe me – once you try, you WILL want to buy these delicious, glamorously green goodies.

Maybe you’re like how I used to be. I thought that by being green, maybe a little glamour would be missing in these products. I couldn’t be more wrong.
It’s glamour you can feel good about!!

I’ve been an Eco-Emi girl for the past three months and I have been thrilled with the boxes I’ve received!

My Eco-Emi March Box

Eco-Emi April

Eco-Emi March

So what goodies came this month?

Revitalize Shampoo & Conditioner (8 oz) by Greenbody Greenplanet ($24.00), 2 Vegan Mineral Eye Shadows ($3.50) & 1 Vegan Gel Eyeliner ($5.00) by The All Natural Face, Lip Tint by Badger ($6.50),Toothbrush by Vita Care ($3.39), Pomegranate Gum by Vita Care ($1.99), Incense by Auromere Ayurvedic ($6.95), Pear Tree Specialty Liquid Soap by Old Post Road Oils ($7.00). That’s a couch-full of cosmic-conscious cosmetics & health goodies!

My Eco-Emi January Box

Eco-Emi January

And January’s Eco-Emi box featured all these gorgeous goodies! Including Lip Tint by J.R. Watkins ($4.99), Endangered Species Lip Balm by Merry Hempsters ($2.99), Sprouted Organic Quinoa by Tru Roots ($6.47), Herbal Tea by TeaGschwendner ($8.56), Organic Fair Trade Coconut Oil by Kelapo ($7.69), Honeydew Spearmint Lotion by Deep Steep ($9.95), Organic Hand Purifier by Dr.Clean Green ($7.95), Organic Eyeliner in black brown by Lauren Brooke Cosmetiques ($12.00) and Greapefruit Seed & Orange Peel Liquid Laundry Detergent by Biokleen ($6.56). Whew! That’s a mouthful!

***

So, if you need a pretty l’il pick-me-up every month and want to feel good about what you’re trying so you can buy the best for you and your loved ones, try Eco-Emi. It is a beautiful beauty box service and I can’t recommend it enough! Plus, they’re super sweet and have superb customer service which earns them a constant seat in the BeautyFrosting kitchen!
