Breo Box Winter 2020

Hello all you people!

I hope you all have been great. I have been MIA yet again but I’m planning to come back again and blog more often. It’s been such a crazy few past months since I last posted. But I’m glad to say things are somewhat back to normal.

It’s been awhile since I posted a subscription box, but I figured this one right here would be perfect for a come back blog post! First I would love to thank this app called Hype Experiences. Its somewhat like a place recommendation site (Yelp, Google Reviews). Here’s how it works: you basically submit 10 posts and after that you’re considered a Hype influencer. When that happens, you can get products and events for a discounted price and all you have to do is post on the app and post on social media. Pretty easy right?

A little bit about what Breo Box is:

It’s a premium, one of a kind, seasonal box aimed to change your lifestyle whether it being technology, fitness, lifestyle and home. I mean heck I believe one season there was a drone in that box! You just never know what you’re gonna get.

First of all, in this box, I recieved Sohp Touchless Soap Dispenser along with a Trip Wipes Gel Soap Refill. As it mentions in the title, it’s touchless! I honestly think it’s perfect. All you got to do is just wave your hand about 2.5 inches from the sensor and viola, it dispenses a citrus scented soap. It’s splash proof which is always a plus. You could actually get 10,000 uses with just one full charge of your Sohp Dispenser. MSRP price is $49 for the Dispenser and $10 for the Soap Refill.

Another COVID friendly product I received in this BREO Box was the Lume UV Sanitizer Wand. This is perfect for when you get a package in the mail and you have no idea who has touched it or even just sanitizing your keyboard. How to Use: Turn on the wand with the light panel facing down. Wave the wand over anything you want to sanitize and you’ll see a purple light (UV). That’s it! It sanitizes within 10 seconds. MSRP price is: $79.

Have you ever ordered a hot coffee and by the time you actually get to drink it, it’s already warm/cold? Well you don’t really have to worry about that with the Coffee Cookie. It’s a portable warming coaster. Just turn it on and put it on the bottom of your cup! Anyone else having Curb Your Enthusiasm scene where Larry complained about having a cold cup of coffee?! It takes about 1 hour to fully charge and it’s USB rechargeable. MSRP:: $20

You can never go wrong with Bluetooth headphones. I got the classy white and it’s amazing! First of all, as your cooking, you can control what you’re listening to and if it falls in the water, you’re good. Why you may ask? It’s waterproof my friend…WATERPROOF! Basically you can talk to Siri or even Alexa to stop the music, call someone, get directions. Once you pair the headphones to your phone, it automatically connects every time you turn them on. You know what the best part is……the battery case charges your headphone while not in use. The charging case holds 4 hours of battery time. MSRP is $129!

LSTN Palladium Wireless Earbuds with Charging Case

Ever heard of a Smart Plug? Well, it’s a Wi-Fi enabled plug that keeps you connected to the things you use the most: lamps, fans, or even string lights. Every worry that you leave the house with the light on or even a straightener? You won’t have to worry when it’s plugged in the Casalink Smart Plug! You just have to Download the smart application. It’s voice controlled, it’s Google Assistant Compatible. MSRP $29

There ya have it folks… That’s all of the box for ya. Would I get it again? Yes I would love to see what the next season will bring. Have any of you tried this box? Or interested in one?!

Fall 2018 FabFitFun Box

Happy Monday loves!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving weekend! Here we are, back at work on Monday! :p

I took the plunge in ordering the Fall 2018 FabFitFun Box when I received an email with $10 off your first box! Who can say no to that?

Let me tell you, I was not disappointed! There’s a mix of beauty, self care, fitness, jewelry, and accessories!

This box originally is $49.99 and it’s sent every season. In my opinion, this is a no brainer since the total value is $295!!!! :O I don’t know about you….But I’m sold! Another plus is that you can customize a few products which is also nice! Meaning: you have 3 choices and you get to pick one!

GLAMGLOW BUBBLESHEET OXYGENATING DEEP CLEANSE MASK (2 Pack) – $18

I’ve heard many great things about this brand, especially the mask! This mask will have you glowing! It’s a weekly bubble detox to put skin in it’s happy place. I haven’t used this one yet but they give you a 3D bubble experience!

Spongalle Body Buffer in “Freesia Pear” – $16

So I’ve never used a body wash infused buffer but hey it sounds and smells amazing!! You can use it more than just one time which is always great! It’s dermatologist tested and works for all skin types. It cleanses, exfoliates, hydrates and massages. Apparently the exfoliating massage texture changes to a soft, silky one as you squeeze it.

AHAVA Mineral Hand Cream – $33

This for me is a classic. I love the scent and it’s so moisturizing! Created with Dead Sea minerals, this mineral rich hand cream instantly improves skin’s moisture level. It also smoothes rough, dry skin, and restores suppleness. I’m addicted to the scent FYI!

Free People x Understated Leather Starry Eyed Travel Eye – $40

So this is a vegan leather eye mask that has a removable, non-toxic cooling insert to keep you feeling and looking fresh. This would be great for days or nights where I have those nasty headaches. The adjustable straps offer a comfy fit while the beautiful metallic patchwork keeps you dreaming with the stars!

Summer & Rose Brittany Tote in “Navy” – $54

I’ve never seen anything like this before but it’s adorable and simple! Rope handles, stripes on stripes, and vegan leather, this is a tote where you should reserve a spot in your handbag collection! It also has two pockets, making it easy to carry around your essentials as well as it zips up.Β  It’s really a cute but especially for the summer season!

CYLO Cobra Bluetooth Wireless Earbuds in “White/Rose Gold”- $40

I’ve actually been looking for a Bluetooth for the past few weeks instead of just using Bluetooth Speaker, so this came at the perfect time! They’re chic and comfy Bluetooth earbuds which came with interchangeable buds. They also include the onboard controls and neck strap which helps you enjoy your music tangle-free.

CUSTOMIZATION 1: ELEMIS Papaya Enzyme Peel – $33

This was one of the customization products that I could choose from two options. I’m a sucker for skincare, so that was a given! This is a rinse-off cream which is made with exfoliating papaya, milk protein, and antioxidant-rich vitamin E that works together to exfoliate and purify tired, lackluster skin.

CUSTOMIZATION 2: Crown Brush 6 Piece Brush Set in “Black + Rose Gold” – $75

This was the second customization that was offered. I have heard of Crown Brushes back when I was in my esthetician program but never had a chance to buy them. They’re made of 100% synthetic bristles, this 6 piece brush set has everything you need to perfect any look! Plus, it’s an easy way to travel with. The brushes include: Powder, blush, concealer, shadow, blending and eyeliner.

Sponsored: ApotheCARE Essentials

This is more of a extra bonus product and hey it’s haircare! I received the Vanilla Argan Oil Sweet Almond Shampoo and COnditioner. It’s refered to as ‘The Replenisher: intense hydration for dry hair”. I also go the Rosehip Oil Geranium Aloe Vera shampoo and conditioner. This one is called “The Booster: dynamic volume for fine + flat hair”.

There you have it folks! Now let me tell you, I don’t think I’d ever cancel this subcription box! As you can see, everything I received in total was more than how much I paid!

Recollections 18-month Doodling Planner Review

Happy Wednesday loves!

I’ve been specifically searching for a weekly planner that I can use with great detail and of all places, I found it at Michaels!

The best friend and I were looking for somethings for her baby shower and we somehow got to the organization area. I love looking at journals and planners so when she noticed it and showed it to me, I was ecstatic! It was originally $12.99 but was on sale for 6.99! Not only that, but I also had a 20% off coupon.

I couldn’t say no to the price and I’m a big fan of adult coloring books, so when I saw it was a doodling planner, I just had to get it!

My only con would be you would have to write in the dates for the monthly planner

My favorite part is the weekly planner! I’ve been looking for this specific template everywhere! You can easily put all your appointments by the time.

DIY Scarf Organizer

Hey loves!

I thought of changing up my recent posts since I’ve been mostly doing hauls. I was doing some spring cleaning and didn’t like how my scarves were just dangling in the closet, while they could fall and I would misplace them. That’s never a good thing. So I went on Pinterest and found a clever and easy way of making a scarf organizer.

Things You Need:

*A hanger

hanger

*shower curtain rings. I got mine from Dollar Tree.

shower rings

*and of course the scarves! lol

scarves

How-To:

1. Open up the shower curtain rings and place scarf in them. You could either fold it twice to make it shorter, or not fold it.

2. After you place the scarves in the rings, you put the rings into the bottom part of the hanger.

Voila! This is the end-product!

In case anyone would like to know where I got these scarves from:

*striped infinity scarf: mark. (used to be a sister store to Avon before they merged together)

*knitted pattern infinity scarf: Walmart

*One sided plaid/other side flowers infinity scarf: H&M

*Burberry knockoff: Bargain store ( something like a .99c store)

* Cream scarf with dots: Target

What did you think?! It’s a first DIY post and I hope to do more like this soon. πŸ™‚

PS. I updated my watermark finally and I’m loving it. What’s your opinion?!

Mini jewelry Show and Tell

Hey loves!!

Ahh this is so overdo! This is supposed to be a mini jewelry haul from October but I’ve been swamped with school. Last few weeks are approaching. >_<
So last month (October) was my birthday month and I did quite some damage when it came to jewelry.

Photo 3

Target had a sale earlier in October, buy an accessory (watches, earrings, sunglasses and necklaces), get one free. I’m not much into sunglasses or necklaces and I already have a signature watch that I own, so it came down to earrings!

One of the earrings I bought is a 3 set. A small silver coiled hoop, a medium sized hoop and and a larger hoop. Not bad for paying 4.99 especially it being a 3 set.

Photo 4

The second earring I got was this grayish black teardrop dangling earrings with flowers coming from the inside. This one was also 4.99

Photo 1

This last one I actually got from Sears. It’s also a teardrop earring that looks gold in the picture but is actually a silver one. It also has designs coming in from the inside. Β It feels heavy but it’s actually not.

I must say I think I may have a thing with dangl-y and teardrop earrings. hehe

Do any of you guys like shopping at Target for jewelry?
