Serendipity Review May 2016

Nothing like ending the month on a high note - and that's what the May 2016 Serendipity by LLB just did!  This is a bi-monthly box full of little finds that always seems to delight this subscriber.  

 Priced at a mere $9.99, you can't beat the value of this box.  Inside the May box are items totaling over $35.  The girls are trying to whet our appetites for the June Little Lace box.

Little Lace Box Review April 2016

Every other month I get this fabulous package in the mail called, Little Lace Box!  This is my favorite bi-monthly subscription box!  You can get six boxes over the course of a year for only $244.95 and I assure you, it's worth every penny.

 April's box is themed, "Step, kick, kick, leap, kick, touch", and celebrates the city that never sleeps.

Little Lace Box Serendipity Review May 2015

Little Lace Box surprised me once again!  The girls have started a new experience called Serendipity. This shipment includes samples and full-sized items that the girls come across and want to share with us.  They are those a la carte luxuries that don't quite fit with their bi-monthly themes.  Serendipity is $9.99 and ships every other month when the Little Lace Box is on break.  Current subscribers received the first Serendipity for free!

Little Lace Box Review April 2015

My Little Lace Box is always the highlight of my month!  The girls went with a theme in honor of their grandmother, called "Nona's Kitchen".  Once again, it is wonderfully curated to the theme and everything is usable and enjoyable.

Little Lace Box Review March 2014

I can't believe it's the 23rd of March and I haven't written about any of my March boxes.  This has been a busy month, but I'm taking time out to show you my absolute favorite subscription - Little Lace Box.  I believe the March theme is "Here Comes the Sun", which celebrates our triumph over the harsh winter.  This box wakes us up and leads us into spring with items to nourish our mind, body, and soul.  

 I was a little sad to see that several people complained about the various items in past boxes.  I personally love the earrings these girls curate.  If you really don't like personal grooming (cleansing/moisturizing), smelling nice, and looking nice (a variety of jewelry options), then stop getting this box.  I think LLB celebrates the indulgences that make us feel great, strong, and feminine.  I don't want Brianna, Taylor, and Aubrey to stop sending items like this.  When I do get things that aren't my fancy, I don't like to complain about it because I realize that's a risk with subscription boxes.  Honestly, I enjoy sharing the things I don't like with those who do appreciate them.  It's a great feeling to see someone light up because you thought of them. 

Little Lace Box Review February 2015

Time to review my favorite monthly box!  I received this on the 28th, but have been really busy.  Sorry for the late post.  Subscribing to Little Lace Box is like getting a boutique experience shipped to your door each month.

The February theme was "The lovers, the dreamers, and you" via the Rainbow Connection.  I really liked this box despite the hurdles LLB had to overcome (dockworker strike, snow, & crazy demand).

Subscriptions are currently not open, but like them on Facebook to stay updated on subscription openings.  My box contained four items and one bonus inclusion.  Even if you do not have a subscription, you can purchase these things from the LLB online store.  I highly recommend the Beekman 1802 Hot Fudge.

Hula Bliss Goat Milk Lotion ~ Our bonus item comes from Dancin' Goat Skin Care.  I believe I will drop this in my purse so I can stay moisturized while on the go.  This product is paraben and sulfate free.  It's made with goat milk and coconut oil.  I really like the fragrance, which is a mixture of lavender, rosemary, and eucalyptus. 

Pink Arrow Stationary ~ ($12.99)  This is a set of flat note cards from P. Press Papers.  Cupid himself would approve of this design!  The simplistic pink arrow is eye appealing yet allows the reader to focus on the writer's message.

Original Goat Milk Hot Fudge by Beekman 1802 ~ ($12.99)  Oh my goodness!  This is an indulgent delight.  I want more!  I need more!  I shall have more!  When I'm not using my Beekman 1802 fruit spoon shove this in my mouth, I'm dipping pretzels in the sauce.

Beekman 1802 Iridescent Shimmer Bling Bath ~ ($18.99)  I'm a shower person, but after reading the reviews for this product, I'm quite eager to try this out.  The salts have a refreshing scent and look so sparkly.

Earrings by Whitley Designs ~ ($54.99)  I love minimalistic jewelry!  This is a pair of oval-shaped silver hoops.  I like that they are lightweight and not too big.  The unique, hand crafted jewelry from Whitley Designs has been featured in several magazines.

I never knew goat's milk could be so luxurious.  I've tried drinking it before with my kindergarten students and thought it was horrible.  I'm so glad that there are other wonderful uses for goat's milk other than for drinking.  What are your thoughts on the February Little Lace Box?  Personally, I'd love to see a Beekman 1802 and Farm House Fresh item in every box!

Little Lace Box Review January 2015

My most favorite subscription box arrived today!  Let's take a look into January's Little Lace Box.

 Do you see how big my LLB is?  This is the third time I've received a huge box from them because all of the items wouldn't fit in their standard box.  

Little Lace Box Review December 2014

As 2015 rings near, Little Lace Box equips us with some wonderful items that inspire us to conquer fear and do something extraordinary.  Once again, this box is beyond spectacular!  The total value for December's box is $147.21.  Monthly subscriptions are $39.99 with free shipping.

Each of the three sisters behind Little Lace Box added a personal favorite to the box, as well as a group choice.  If you want to stay up-to-date on LLB subscriptions, Like them on Facebook!

Little Lace Box Review November 2014

 If you have been contemplating ordering a subscription box, you should absolutely consider Little Lace Box.  In my opinion, this is the best box out there!  I loved November's box so much, I took it to work for a show-and-tell session!  (Coupon code at the end of this post!)

Little Lace Box Review October 2014

Little Lace Box is officially my FAVORITE subscription box!  This is my third box and I have loved everything in all three boxes!  October's theme is "Accessories for That Night Out".  There are two subscription options to choose from: monthly or yearly.  The monthly subscription is $39.99 and a yearly subscription is $383.90 (a savings of $95.98).  Both choices include free shipping!  

Little Lace Box Review September 2014

If you don't get this box, you are missing out!  Little Lace Box has been my favorite subscription box for the past two months!  I initially subscribed thinking it would be a beauty & accessory box, but it's soooo much more than that!  There's a coupon code at the bottom!

 The information page is personalized with my name and is very eye appealing.  This month's theme focuses on home entertaining and embodies a Sassy and Spirited Soiree.  There are plenty of pictures, tips, and tricks to help subscribers host the ultimate cocktail party.  What's even better, you can order any of these products in the LLB Store!

Little Lace Box Review August 2014

Ladies, get out your wallets - there's a new subscription service in town!  Little Lace Box hails from Kissimmee, FL and is packed full of luxurious designer items.  After seeing the August reviews of their launch box, I HAD to get this box.  I subscribed for a year and am very eager to watch this company grow.  Correction: I thought this was the September Little Lace Box, but this is actually the August box.  I signed up on the last day of August, therefore I was able to get the August box!  September's box will ship on the 22nd.

There is a coupon code at the end of this post!

The September box boasted five items from some wonderful designers and businesses.  I really like the detailed description of each product.

Enummi Skin Care ~ This is a sample skin care set from Enummi.  There are six samples that cleanse, tone, target, and moisturize your skin.  It's a precision-strength complexion recovery system for your face.  The complete, full-size set retails for $165.95.  

The Sexiest Scent on The Planet. Ever. (IMHO) ~ Oh wow!  I have a strong dislike for perfume because my nose and head cannot handle floral scents.  This fragrance was made for people like me!  It's wonderful!  This is actually the base scent for another Sarah McCartney fragrance.  Luckily, they decided to bottle the base, which contains bergamot, vanilla, woods, musk, and ambergris.  Please Google "ambergris" for your reading enjoyment.  Sarah's fragrance company is called 4160 Tuesdays (if you live to be 80, you will encounter 4,160 Tuesdays in your life) and exclusively sells in the UK. I found two US distributors for this perfume - Little Lace Box and  www.luckyscent.com   The full-sized product sells for $90 on either site.  You can also purchase a sample of this for $4 from Lucky Scent.  I seriously see this as being the second perfume I will buy myself in my adult life, and I'm 37 years old!  How odd that I received this on a Tuesday!

Leila Lou Roll On by Rosie Jane ~ Leila Lou - it's just fun to say!  As I opened my Little Lace Box, I was greeted by this scent.  It's made in California with a blend of the finest essential oils.  Rosie Jane Johnston is a makeup artist who created a fragrance for her own personal use.  It was loved by so many, she decided to market it and named it after her daughter.  This scent is very fresh and clean; it has notes of pear blossom, fresh cut grass, jasmine, and tangerine.  Customers can purchase candles, moisturizer, Eau de Parfum, and shower gel in this scent as well.

Black Soap from Soapbox Soaps ~ ($4.99) This soap is made with ingredients that improve the health of your skin.  It smells wonderful, is 100% natural, palm oil free, cruelty free, vegan, gluten free, and made in the USA.  Ingredients include: olive oil, coconut oil, soybean oil, corn oil, organic shea butter, sea salt, activated charcoal, and essential oils.  The charcoal and sea salt exfoliate your skin, while the shea butter and oils restore moisture.  This company has a great mission to provide soap, water, and vitamins to those in need.  For every bar of soap purchased, one bar is donated.  Soapbox also donates water and vitamins based on the sale of other products.  You may be able to find this soap at Target.

Graymarket Design Scarf ~ ($45) This scarf is from designer Hallie Gray's business, Graymarket Design.  The fabric is 32 x 80 inches of luxurious, soft, gauzy cotton.  I received the "Gretta" scarf, which is hand-block printed with non-toxic AZO-free dyes.  I love how this scarf will coordinate with just about anything!  To care for this block printed piece of art, machine wash cold and dry on low heat or air dry.

I purchased a one-year subscription for $384.99 and got 20% off that total.  As a thank-you for my order, I received this Bubble Bath Dough by Red Leaf ($4.50).  Bubble bath dough has the texture of play dough, yet makes tons of bubbles that last throughout your entire bath!  This product is available in a variety of scents.  The Oatmeal, Milk, & Honey fragrance is yummy!  If you are not a bath person, you can use this in the shower as a cleaner and exfoliant.  Red Leaf offers natural, handmade, vegan products from Seattle, WA.

I came home from work today in the worst mood.  Receiving my Little Lace Box, completely brightened my spirits and released my tension.  I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this box!!!!!  I can't believe I found a fragrance that doesn't give me headaches or makes me sick.  Hopefully, LLB will continue to send quality products in the upcoming months.  Please leave a comment and tell me your thoughts about this new box. 

A monthly subscription is $39.99, which includes free shipping.  

Correction:  I originally posted that this was the Little Lace Box September shipment, but I was wrong.  After speaking to the company, I found out that this is actually the August box.  September's box will begin shipping on the 22nd of the month.
