I recently subscribed to FabFitFun. I always see advertisements for this and I’ve watched a few unboxings on YouTube that I thought I might as well sign up and try it for a year.
FabFitFun is a seasonal subscription service. The items in the box range from beauty, skincare, fitness, health, jewelry etc. I figured this would be a great way to get other items rather than just makeup like I was receiving in my other boxes.
When I signed up there was a promotion to receive a second box of surprises worth $150US ($195CAD). I figured that was a better deal than just receiving $10 off the box (their usual promo). Unlike the Winter Box, I didn’t get to choose any of the items so I didn’t know what I was going to get in the box.
Today’s post I’ll focus on the Starter Box and then in my next post I’ll share what I got in the Winter Edition Box.
What I really enjoy is that both the winter edition and this box included a magazine. This has a lot of great little articles as well as descriptions of what you received in the box. I enjoyed reading this!
On to what was in the box!
Grown Alchemist Hydra-Repair Day Cream ($60.00CAD)
This is a facial moisturizer that hydrates the skin without leaving residual oil or shine on the skin. I had to go into the website to figure out what this was because the packaging didn’t have too much information. I enjoy moisturizers so I’m happy to receive one in this box.
Moroccan Gold Series Leave-in Mask ($50.95 CAD)
This leave-in mask seals in moisture, protects against heat and UV damage, detangles hair and seals split ends. I have a lot of hair items so I ended up passing this along to someone else. I do think this would have been a good product to try because I do have dry hair and I’m always styling my hair but, again, I do have a lot of hair masks and serums so I thought it didn’t make sense to hold on to it.
Spongelle Black Orchid Body Wash Infused Buffer ($20.88CAD)
This was a limited edition product made exclusively for FabFitFun. These buffers have a built-in body wash and are infused with extracts of yuzu, edelweiss and vetiver root. I like the idea of a body wash infused buffer. I can see this being very handy to travel with.
I haven’t tried this yet but I hope that it lathers up well. I like that the sponge looks like a flower and feels like it could be very soft. I wasn’t able to smell it but looking at reviews a lot of people seem to enjoy it!
Yumi Kim Wunderlust Makeup Travel Case ($65.35CAD)
I was most excited about this item in the starter box. It’s a travel makeup/toiletries bag that has three internal zippered sections to keep everything contained and a hook to hang on a doorknob or hook.
I have a few different travel bags that I enjoy using but I really how this is all compact while still being able to carry a lot of items in one place. I like the compartments to keep everything organized. Two of the compartments are deeper so that I can put in bottles and larger items, and a smaller zipped compartment for little tools or items that would normally get lost in the large compartment. I can’t wait to use this for an overnight stay. I wonder if it will completely replace the 2-3 separate bags I carry now.
Thoughts
Overall, for a free box that came with the purchase of the Winter Box, there are a lot of good products in here that I’m happy to try out. What I love about this box is that it had a variety of different items that I will use.
Total Value: $197.18 CAD ($150.88 USD)
Are you subscribed to FabFitFun? What do you think of this subscription box and service?
Lots of Love,

I’m subscribed to FFF – so far I’ve had the Autumn Box and, more recently, the winter box, in fact I’m in the process of writing a review of the winter box. Being in the UK it’s a little pricey, especially the shipping but I will be sticking with it for a while to give FFF a fair trial.

Oh, that’s awesome! I’ll have to look at your review when it’s posted. It’s pricey for us Canadians too but so far it’s seems worth it to me too.
