Mommy Mailbox subscription boxes are carefully curated to make all mom’s lives better, easier and sweeter. Boxes contain products which typically retail for between $55-$75 and each box contains 4-6 surprise gifts that change each month.

The Box

Mommy Mailbox ships via USPS during the first week of the month (or the last few days of the previous month). I don’t believe I received a shipping notice on this one – it just appeared in my mailbox.

Not much to look at here.  I do love the presentation of their boxes though!

The Information Card

The August 2015 Mommy Mailbox theme was “Embellish” and was curated by Becki Crosby of Whippy Cake. The box contained the following items:

~Dia’s Jewels Starry Night Necklace (~$22): Each piece from the Dia’s Jewels line helps women rescued from human trafficking.  I do feel like Mommy Mailbox sends a lot of chunky necklaces out, but I really like this one.  And I love the cause.

~BAGGU Makeup Bag ($8): I kind of giggled when I saw this because I have gotten a few of them (different patterns) in other subscription boxes recently.  They are great though (very roomy and easy to clean) and now I believe I have enough for everyone in the family to have their own.

~Grey Ghost Bakery Lemon Sugar Cookies (~$2): These cookies have been in a few boxes as well and I was thrilled to see them again. I LOVE lemon cookies and these are great. They have a perfect amount of lemon taste and sugar crystals.  So good!

~OFRA Cosmetics Laguna Beach Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick ($19.90): This is for sure more creamy than glossy and does seem to last a long time after it’s applied.  I love the color and while I am normally not fan of lipsticks, I will be keeping this.

~OFRA Cosmetics Nude Lipliner ($13): Lipliner is typically not a product I use, but this one is nice. It’s “nude” so it’s not meant to stand out – which I like.  It mainly helped stop my gloss from bleeding.

All totaled I came up with a value of $64.90 for the August 2015 Mommy Mailbox. I enjoyed the contents of the box, but I wasn’t as into it as I was last month’s box.  It didn’t have any new discoveries for me in it, but I will use everything in it so that’s always a win.

    Why does it seem like almost every subscription box for women contains some kind of Ofra product? It’s usually for lips too, and comes in pairs lol! Their cosmetics are pretty good though! This seems like a cute box as well I think this is the first I’ve heard of it, thanks for the review!

      I know right? I never heard of OFRA before subscription boxes!

    This was my first box from MM and I have to say I really loved it! I was looking for a sub. box that is a sampling of several categories and this August box was a home run for me. Looking forward to future boxes and fun goodies!
