Serendipity July 2015

What's in

the bag?

Serendipity is the bag Little Lace Box sends on the off month of Little Lace Box - it is free for current subscribers or $9.99 a month if you are not subscribed.  These are items they would like to send us but do not match the themes of month.

Get Dirty Bud Bar by Mindful Minerals -   ($4) This contains no parabens or sodium Lauryl Sulfates which is very important to me when it comes to beauty products.  I do not, however, like the smell.  I do not think I could wash myself with this bar if you end up smelling like it.

Malibu C Miracle Repair Hair Constructor -   ($3 for .5 ounces)  This is also a vegan product that contains helpful vitamins to restore your hair after the sun, heat, and pool.

Steep & Go by The Tea Spot -  ($5.95)  How did I not know this was a thing?  You can make your own fresh cold tea without heat in a water bottle.  Perfect for on the go!  I love this idea! 

Chill Out, Organic Loose Leaf Tea -  ($1.29)  This pairs with the Steep & Go to help make your fresh cold brew tea.  This takes only 10 minutes to finish!  I am still in awe of this cute little product and wonder what other flavors these come in.

Einvite.com cards - ($5)  These are so cute!  I love getting cards in my boxes - I am a paper freak at heart.  I would have picked these exact cards too.

There have only been two Serendipity bags and this one is my favorite of the two.  There was variety and useful items. 

What did you like about the Serendipity bag?  Did you know about the Steep & Go?

 

Serendipity by Little Lace Box

What's in

the bag?

I was thrilled to receive my little gift from Little Lace Box for May - the Serendipity gift bag.    They will be sending them free to all Little Lace Box subscribers until they work out all the kinks in this subscription bag.  Normally it would ship for $9.99 a month on the off months of LLB.  The bag will be an assortment of items that do not fit the themes of their Lace boxes.

OFRA Eyebrow Pencil - ($13) At first, I thought this was an eyeliner and was not thrilled - eyeliner must be the most added product to a sub box!  I have more than I will ever be able to go through in my lifetime.  But it is actually an eyebrow pencil, which I currently do not own so this is a plus.  It may be too dark for my eyebrows but I will give it a whirl. This is also made in the USA, cruelty free and all natural which is a big plus for me.

OFRA Lip Liner in Plum - ($13)  I like getting lip liner in my bags and boxes since I use them all the time and they are not put in them very often.  This is a darker shade them I am use to but it looks like it will go nicely with the gloss that is also in the bag. 

OFRA Lip Gloss in Bordeaux - ($13) This is a very pretty gloss.   There are several shades on their website to choose from too.   This does not contain parabens either. 

Bella Ink - ($3.95)  Every bag came with a cute little card from this designer.  I love the cupcake one I was sent - there are other items on Little Lace Box's site for sale. 

Brode Electrolyte Vitamin -  ($4) I cannot believe I have never heard of these!  They are perfect for my athlete son.  He runs and wrestles, so he is a year-round athlete with little breaks.  I am going to be buying him a box of these for his meets.

And if that was not enough - a coupon for 2 for 1 bottle of wine with $1 shipping!~  Cairdean Estate is a winery in Napa Valley, California and with this great deal, I can get 2 bottles of a white wine for $39 shipped to me.

This really was a hodge podge of items and what a steal!   Just the makeup alone was $40 and the bag sells for $9.99 normally - I got it free as a gift for being a Little Lace Box subscriber. 

Little Lace Box is one of my favorite monthly boxes and I am super excited about June's upcoming box that has the theme:
Classy and Fabulous!  "Our June box will shower you with inspiration and accessories to glam up your summer style and take you from day to dinner."   This box is currently sold out so I hope you took my advice in April and signed up. 

What's Up Wednesday?

Happy Wednesday!  I have a bunch of goodies arriving this week.  I cannot wait for several of them.

Little Lace Box is starting up a little goodie bag for the month's they do not send their bi-monthly box - it will be called Serendipity and will contain 5-7 goodies in sample and full sizes.  Right now, it is free to subscribers but you can purchase it for $9.99 if you are not a member. 

 I joined FabFitFun after they did a special to save $10 and get a free infuser bottle.  I got an email that my box is on its way.  It must be the Spring box as the Summer box does not ship until June 22.  I hope it is that box as I really want the Rifle Company cities coaster set and Ofra makeup brushes.  I will keep you posted.

I have been addicted to Washi tape for awhile now and Amazon has some lovely ones to add on to your order.  These are Martha Stewart Vintage Girl and Modern Festive.

The Ipsy glam rooms are up if you want to share to Facebook and look at your bag.  I think I am waiting this time to be surprised.  I have never been able to not look before but I have found that I like being surprised.  I do know what the bag looks like and that it will contain either a Too Faced Melted liptick or a Smashbox primer.
