September KlutchClub

This month's box was all about being stress free! 

I haven't a chance to try everything yet, but read on for my review of what I've tried.

I received the Annie Chun's Seaweed Snacks and the Snapea Crisps in other boxes before and I personally don't care for them.   

The Boom Chicka Pop Sea Salt Popcorn was delicious and made for a great snack at work. 

The PowBab is a supplement chew and it's like candy! These are so good!

DreamWater I've tried before, but this is a new flavor for me.

The rest I'll be trying through the week. 

Let me know what you think of KlutchClub below!

September NatureBox

I apologize in advance, this is going to be a short post for now. Today is the start of my vacation and I'm just writing this up on the train. I got my NatureBox just before I left and literally only got to open it.

I'm interested in the chia seed crackers, my mom LOVES chia seeds and they're really good for you, so here's hoping they taste good.  

The salted caramel pretzel pops seem like something I needed in my life a long time ago.

The cranberry macaroon granola seems interesting and I'm curious to see how I like it. I love cranberries and I love macaroons, but I can be so picky about coconut.

On to what I'm not excited about.

I don't like peas... at all... in any form. Sorry. So we'll see what happens with the smoky bbq peas. I'll try one to be fair.

I'm also not a huge fan of pumpkin seeds. I love making them, but I don't love to eat them. The other thing is that while I can appreciate why NatureBox sends their seeds hulled, I much prefer the texture of breaking open the seeds myself. Maybe that's weird. I can eat a whole bag of sunflower seeds, but if they're already hulled forget it. We'll see how I like the sea salt and cracked black pepper pumpkin seeds.

What are your thoughts on this month's box?

September Love with Food

One of my best friends has Celiac's Disease so it was great to see a box dedicated to gluten free snacks. I was just getting home from work when this arrived and I was STARVING so I pretty much demolished half of this box in one sitting... probably not the healthiest thing I could do, but oh well. Check out the photos below to see this month's box.

These Apple Chips were insanely good! Apples are my favorite part of the Fall!

My inner 6 year old was in LOVE with these puffy, crunchy dinosaurs! 

 

These Cinnamon Crunch crisps are SO GOOD! I was skeptical because they are corn based, but they are out of this world... which is probably why they are from Cosmos... get it? 

Le Métier de Beauté September: Eyes

Over the holiday weekend I got anxious to get my next LMdB box. This month's focus was eyes; True Color Créme Eye Shadows in Champagne Shimmer and Starry Night. These are an approximately $60 value. I was unable to find them available for purchase, but their other shadows are $30. The color payoff is more than I expected and the formula is very creamy. They could definitely be worn alone, but also work well as a base. They recommend the Champagne Shimmer as a face or eye highlighter, but you would have to use a very light hand with it. My swatches below were just a finger swipe and there was fairly good color density.

Overall this month was another great value with 2 full size products and I was thrilled to see that they started including product cards. I also love how beautiful each box is and that there's a hand written note in each one. 

Cost per month: $29 ($348 annually)
This month's box value: $60

September Julep Maven Box

September's Julep Maven Box looks like Fall as soon as you open it. The packaging is reminiscent of Fall leaves ready to be jumped into. Julep changed up a few elements of their packaging this month with a new box and new wrapper for the polishes. This month's Bombshell colors were Karmen and Daria. Karmen is a reddish burnt orange shimmer with gold glitter. It SCREAMS Fall. You look at it and just know it's the color of Autumn in a bottle. Daria is fashion's Fall color. A grey creme with a slightly blueish hue, 90s kids rejoice, it's perfect for it's namesake, moody and dark and right up my alley.

This month's beauty product is Bare Face Cleansing Oil. I'm anxious to try this since I've noticed my skin already getting a bit drier as we move towards the colder months.
