Wellness & Beauty Wish List

Since the holidays are right around the corner I decided it would be fun to share some products I would love to get my hands on.

  1. Augustinus Bader Face Cream: This cream sounds like magic in a bottle, however, with its hefty price I only dream that I could afford to add this to my skincare routine.
  2. Foreo Issa Electric Toothbrush: I’ve been lusting after these toothbrushes for awhile but haven’t convinced myself that this is something that I really need – yet. Another toothbrush I heard is worth looking into (and is half the price of the Issa) is the Colgate Hum Smart Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush.
  3. Revision Skincare BodiFirm: Said to lift and sculpt your body I feel like I have a handful of places I could to slather this on.
  4. HALO BEAUTY Kiwi Skin Booster: My sister has this supplement and loves what it did to her skin. I started taking some of hers, but not long enough to see results. I would still like to scoop up a bottle for myself to see what it does in a few weeks to a month.
  5. FabFitFun Box Subscription: This is probably one of the most popular subscription boxes that I have heard of. I have been going back and forth on purchasing a subscription for as long as I have known about it. One of my sisters is subscribed and I have read and watched many great reviews on it. Sounds like it is totally worth the monthly price, however, I am currently subscribed to the SinglesSwag subscription box and I told myself I would try to only do one subscription box at a time. Click here to get $15 off your first order using my referral link.
  6. Allure Beauty Box Subscription: As I mentioned before, I am trying to only do one subscription at a time, but this one is on my wish list as well. For the great price ($15) I hear you get some really fantastic beauty products. This may be the next one that I get, unless of course someone gifts it to me for the holidays.

Singles Swag Subscription Box Review October 2020 with Discount Code

After reading reviews and watching YouTube unboxing videos, I finally caved in and started getting some subscription boxes. So far I have only signed up for 2 that I thought looked like I would enjoy the most. One of them is Singles Swag.

Even though the name implies that it is strictly for single people, there are a lot of items that really are just great for self care and self love. The first box that I got was full of wonderful surprises. I must note that I am not in anyway sponsored by them and all thoughts are my own. See below for a referral link to get $15 off your first box.

The box costs $24.99/mo for the petite box and $39.99/mo for their full size box. Get $15 off your first box by clicking here and based on my first box it is totally worth it. You can sign up for a monthly, 3 month or 6 month subscription (each giving you a better deal).

Here are the items I got in my first box (Retail value $118):

  1. Spongelle Body Wash Infused Buffer (Retail value $20): This sponge is a flower shaped, scented squishy delight. It has a rose scent which may be a bit much for those sensitive to smell. I haven’t used it yet so I don’t have anything further to say about it just yet.
  2. Dime Beauty Immunity Boos Roll-On Essential Oil (Retail value $24): This roll-on oil smells delicious. It smells like a relaxing spa in a jar. The scent (for me) is eucalyptus with a hint of citrus. I’m wearing it right now and feel relaxed.
  3. Oh Ki Beauty 3-Step Marine Algae Mask Set (Retail value $12): I am very excited to use this mask. I have been wanting to try new masks and this is a Korean beauty mask so I will of course report back later on how this worked for me. It says it will heal and protect the skin ending with a dewy and hydrated finish.
  4. Gen3 Mila Zodiac Charm Bracelet (Retail value $58): This is probably my favorite item in the box. It is gold (can’t tell if plated maybe) and has little star and moon charms on it. What I also love, aside from it’s cuteness is that it fits up to 9 inch wrist and is adjustable. My wrist itself is not that big but my hand span is wide so slide on bracelets like that are often difficult to put on. Smart design makes me happy and I can’t wait to wear it out.
  5. Oogie’s Snacks Movie Time Butter Gourmet Popcorn (Retail value $4): Who doesn’t love a nice snack? I thought it was nice for them to add a little something to nibble on in here. I tried it since we are out of popcorn and I liked it. It was yummy – salty, sweet and savory – without being overly salty. It almost has a cheesy flavor to it but that may be the type of butter that they use. My sister and I agree it could use a little bit more of the flavoring.

As you can see the items aren’t necessarily for singles only. There is a bit of beauty, a bit of fashion and a bit of snacks to keep you enjoying your days. As I mentioned above, the bracelet is probably my favorite item out of the entire box.

If you sign up for a box you are also able to purchase past items in their shop at 50% off the retail price which is super cool if you really like something and want to purchase either another one for yourself or for a gift since the holidays are right around the corner.

Since I haven’t used most of the items I will be sure to review them on other posts as I add them to my daily routine. Overall I am pleased with the products that I received this month.

Product Review: Haus of Gloi Part 2

I wrote about this brand before and was pleasantly surprised by the products. Not only were they extremely affordable (mine were gifted to me by my sister but they really are affordable) but they smelled amazing!

Since I loved my experience with them so much I decided to purchase more products from them when they debuted their new fall collection. Even though I wanted to purchase more, I restrained myself and purchased just a few items. Of course I had to share on here what I purchased and what I thought about it as well. One more thing – their shipping time was excellent. It was shipped within a few days.

Haus of Gloi products

I purchased the Red Roan Perfume Oil and Bubbling Scrub: From their website Red Roan is described as “Fresh strawberry flecked porridge with maple syrup and adulterated with a splash of white cognac.”

I absolutely love this scent. It smells exactly how it sounds – like strawberry oatmeal! It has a hint of what smells to me like a strawberry malt as well.

Honey Love Perfume Oil: This scent was actually not part of their fall collection. It was something I randomly found on the website while I was browsing and sounded like something I would like.

According to their website Honey Love is described as”Golden honey, sweet cream, pink carnation, and vanilla musk.”

I don’t normally like musky scents but since it said vanilla musk I thought I would probably enjoy it – and I do.

The honey love perfume oil has a creamy honey and floral scent. The floral and musk are not as prevalent as I was expecting though so I am enjoying this yummy scent.

The perfume oils lasted for most of the day and kept their key notes. I was thoroughly surprised as I wasn’t sure how it would hold up on the humid days that I wore them.

I will definitely be purchasing more perfume oils and bubbling scrubs from Haus of Gloi in the future. For the mean time, my sister is more than happy to let me try some of the scents that she purchased from their website recently. Lots of candy corn and pumpkin scents to fulfill our Fall/Autumn senses.

Upon checking their social media I found out that they came out with more new scents to choose from – nothing that caught my eye but just an FYI.

Hair Product Reviews

I have an abundance of hair products as I am always trying new things. I always try to use up old products before I start using new products but that is not always the case. I recently used up a shampoo and conditioner set so I thought it would be a great time to do a little review on them.

For my birthday I picked up a few new items – the deep conditioner and the leave-in listed below (because of great recommendations for them) and since I heard so many great things about them I thought why not go ahead and share my experience with them as well.

Hair Chemist Jojoba & Shea Butter Revitalizing Shampoo

This shampoo works well on my hair. It is not too stripping and I like that there is a nice tingle on my scalp when I’m using it. It suds up nicely but as I said it doesn’t strip my hair of its natural oils which I absolutely love. I don’t like when I use a shampoo and it makes my hair feel crispy and dry.

Hair Chemist Jojoba & Shea Butter Revitalizing Conditioner

This conditioner makes my hair feel soft and conditioned. I usually leave it on for a few minutes to get the best benefits from it.

Mielle Babassu Oil & Mint Deep Conditioner

Mielle White Peony Leave-In Conditioner

I absolutely love this leave-in conditioner. The scent is soft and pretty. The first time I used it was on almost dry hair. It left my hair not only smelling amazing but feeling amazing too. My hair was so soft and it gave my curls a little bit of definition but not stiff at all.

The second time I used it for a braid out. I applied it to damp hair in sections and again my hair felt super soft and was left with a light, sweet scent.

I would definitely purchase this again.

Product Review: Haus of Gloi (Indie Brand)

As they continue to get launched I keep getting introduced to new indie brands on social media. Sometimes on Twitter but a lot of time there is buzz around them on YouTube and Instagram – for me, especially Instagram. I thought it would be fun to do some reviews on some of the products I have been using from these brands going forward. One of the brands that I was introduced to by my sister is Haus of Gloi. Here are some of the products that I have used from them so far.

Twice Is Nice Soft Bubbling Scrub by Haus of Gloi

This scrub was gifted to me by my sister. It has a pretty smell – to me it smells like buttery almond cookies. I love that it isn’t too abrasive. It does what it says – bubbles up a bit once you add some water so it is more of a soft, bubbly scrub.

It leaves my skin feeling smooth and soft even after one use. I would definitely purchase this just based on the scent alone but also for how smooth it makes my skin feel and the fact that it is not abrasive.

Summer Perfume Oil in Flutterby by Haus of Gloi

This was also gifted to me by my sister. The website describes it as “Clean cotton, warm summer winds, and linden blossom” and for me it gives off soft scent of fresh flowers. It is a very pretty scent. Something to wear on a summer evening.

The scent is fairly long lasting. and it is something I would purchase.

One thing I noticed on the Haus of Gloi website was that they come out with new products/fragrances so it is good to check back on their website for new fragrances. My sister and I plan on hopefully trying one of their new scents soon.
