Seasonal Members get to pick 4 of their items as well as the option to swap out their box for credit to shop with as well.

The options for this box did not feel wintery to me at all like this felt very spring to me. So that was a little confusing to me. I was not thrilled with the choice options and I’m the same level of meh now that they have all shown up.

Insert Name Here Insert Waves Here Hair Waver

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $72

I don’t know why i so desperately wanted this but I did. I will use this exactly once before I forget I own it since i don’t do much with my hair but this is the start of the box and was kinda the star of all the choice options as well. I like that this isn’t giant I feel like alot of these three barrel wavers are so huge and unweidly.

dp Hue ACV Exfoliating Scalp Detox

Full Size: 120 ml

Full Size Cost: $35

I love a good scalp treatment they just make my scalp feel refreshed and good and in a weird way they make me feel like im cleaning my brain and makes my whole emotional state feel better lol. I know that’s clearly in my head but self care counts as therapy right. You just apply this to the scalp about ten minutes before you wash your hair and it is supposed to help exfoliate off the dead skin cells and dirt.

by/ Rosie Jane Dulce Perfume

Full Size: 7.5 ml

Full Size Cost: $28

This is so intensely sweet almost too sweet but i think it is also going to be pretty long lasting so that will be good especially for traveling.

Nars Air Matte Lip Color in Shag

Full Size: 7.5 ml

Full Size Cost: $28

Pretty neutral pink color I like the light airy mousse formula and I like Nars lip products alot so this was a great pick.

Aceology Probiotic Restoring Biodegradable Mask

Full Size: 4 masks

Full Size Cost: $59

So you can’t buy this in the US which I think is partly contributing to this insane price. I just can’t imagine this mask does anything so special that it is worth that price at all but I think I am going to try one tonight my face has been freaking out and maybe this will be magical.

Sassy Woof Holiday Walkie Pack

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $31.98

Let’s start with the cons. This is not something they sell any longer I presume it was last years holiday collection and FabFitFun got the left over stock. That is pretty shitty. This is a leash though its not like it goes bad or expires like a makeup item would this is super cute seems pretty hig quality and my dog loves a puppacino we are starbucks girls for sure. The leash and the metal hard ware seems pretty good quality the poop bag holders to hold the bag with poop never really works for my but I will give it a try it is a cute leash accessory either way.

This box just feels like things I’d want for spring a new dog leash a beachy hair styling tool a sweet perfume a refreshing type skincare and hair care a pink lipstick like it just seems wrong for a wintery box.

Value: $253.98

I wasn’t super thrilled about the options this season it felt like a mish mash of leftover items and then I totally forgot all the things I picked. But now that it is here I am actually pretty excited about it.

Frank Body Cacao Coffee Scrub

Full Size: 200 g

Full Size Cost: $20

I don’t really love the frank body scrubs they are so messy and I hate having to wash my shower after I take a shower. .They usually smell really good though this one is a chocolate cake coffee scent so that should be nice.

Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm in Vanilla Beige

Full Size: 15 ml

Full Size Cost: $24

Unfortunately I thought this was the clear one when I choose it. I would not have choose it if I had know this was a tinted one I don’t prefer tinted balms but I will use it all the same because I have it.

Vegamour Gro Dry Shampoo

Full Size: 112 g

Full Size Cost: $36

I picked this solely because I am almost out of Dry Shampoo. I see ads for Vegamour all the time but its always seemed shady to me so now I will get to see for myself. This is supposed to make your hair look thicker and fuller too.

Alex + Ani Emerald Flex Cuff

Full Size Cost: $45

I bought this thinking I was going to give it away as a gift but it is actually really cute on and I am definitely going to keep it. It is adjustable but pretty small and stiff which is ideal for me but might be problematic for most people so that is something to keep in mind.

Short Stories Travel Blanket

Full Size Cost: $68

I picked this because I always like the idea of a travel blankets but they are never right too big to pack right not soft all sorts of things. Now this is pretty ridiculous at that price point like crazy this is super soft but pretty small and thin so I will have to see how i get on with it on my next trip. This is also a repeat item that Fab Fit Fun has done before which is I don’t know how I feel about that.

Little Korboose by April Nemeth Woven Throw Blankey

Full Size Cost: $60

I don’t remember choosing two blankets that’s pretty dumb on my part this isn’t soft it feels like canvas something that should be outside.

Ricola Throat Balm Caramel Flavor

Full Size: 34 drops

Full Size Cost: $6.79

Sample Size: 6 drops

Value: $1.20

Every now and than Fab Fit Fun will throw in a random promo item as like a little ad/bonus. With cold season rapidly approaching this will be nice to have on hand. Ricola stuff usually tastes pretty good too.

Well I ended up being happier than I though I was going to be with this box even though the choices really sucked this season and the prices are ridiculously overinflated for the 2 blankets.

Value: $254.20

Summer Fab Fit Fun this isn’t my favorite one ever but also everything I actually choose for myself not for gifts for other people which is a bit of a nice change for me.

Beach Riot Beach Club Towel

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $78

This is super soft. I think as a beach towel it wouldn’t be that great because it is so soft I think it would pick up alot of water and not dry super fast but as a bath towel it is going to be so nice and I wanted a new nice bath towel. For this price i would want it to be a bit thicker like i don’t ove super thick towels but this is pretty thin and again for this price I would expect this to be more bath sheet sized rather then beach towel sized. So not quite up to my expectations, fully not worth $78 dollars but for the about $9.17 I paid its really nice.

Lilly Pulitzer Zip ID Case

Full Size: Case w/ Lanyard

Full Size Cost: $35

Value: $20

I linked to the closest thing I could find it is a set with a lanyard but it seems like these wallets sell for around $20 and the lanyards around $15. I am not a Lilly Girlie but this is the style of wallet I use and I thought the pattern was so super cute.

L*Space Vibrating Massage Ball

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $42

I have wanted one of these for a long time. I think it is really going to help with knots in my back and my tendonitis. This one is also water resistant which is nice. You can’t buy this anywhere which makes the price seem a bit suspicious but I am really glad to have it.

Volition Strawberry-C Brightening Serum

Full Size: 30 ml

Full Size Cost: $44

This was the category that really didn’t have anything I wanted so this is what I ended up choosing I like Vitamin C Serums so I’ll see how good this one is.

Malin + Goetz Rum Hand + Body Wash

Full Size: 250 ml

Full Size Cost: $26

This smells really good I can’t wait to try it. I had a mojito lip balm from this brand that I loved.

Olaplex Bond Intense Moisture Mask

Full Size: 100 ml

Full Size Cost: $30

I have wanted this mask but haven’t wanted to buy it and now I have it. My hair is wrecked at the moment so maybe this can help.

Value: $240

So the value this month is way lower then the $300 that it is supposed to be. I’m not super impressed with this box. While I picked all these items and will use all these items the category choices and the actually quality of the items is a bit disappointing.
