This box smelled great!
The October 2015 Prospurly theme was “The Harvest” and included the following items to help bring the feeling of Autumn into your home and in your heart:
~Honey Girls Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix ($14.99): The information card prices this at $14.99, but that seems really expensive for a cookie mix. Really expensive. Also, I can’t find any information on Honey Girls cookie mix online (according to the tag they are on Etsy, but I couldn’t locate the shop), so I am not sure what to make of this. The mix itself contains almond & coconut flour, coconut sugar, coconut sugar, chocolate chips, baking soda and sea salt. It sounds good, but really just doesn’t look like a subscription box item. It’s more like something you’d make your neighbor for Christmas. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but I would at least expect a label and a plastic seal on it. ETA: Thanks for Shannon I was able to locate this shop on Etsy! From the looks of the images on Etsy, this mix is supposed to have a layered look to it, but it obviously got shaken up in shipping. I feel much more comfortable with this knowing where exactly it came from!
~The Suds Cafe Handmade Pumpkin Spice Soap ($5.50): This soap is handcrafted and contains 100% natural ingredients – like coconut oil, oatmeal, botanicals & spices and high-grade essential oils – all of which is sustainably-sourced. As you can imagine it smells fantastic and I love that you can see each of the layers / ingredients in the soap.
~Valentina’s Homebrewed “Protection” Bath Salts x 2 ($7): I have gotten this in another box, but I can’t recall which one off the top of my head. One of the yogi boxes I think? The blend of “positive-energy-inspiring sea salt and essential-oil based bath salts” is said to ward off negative thoughts and emotions and ensure sleepful nights and inspiring intentions. I am going to take the advice of the card and use one for myself and gift one to a friend.
~Skin Nutrition from Nature with Love Pumpkin Cream Lip Balm ($3) and Pumpkin Pie Lotion (2oz) ($5): Obviously I love this. The lotion smells delicious and while I don’t like to eat pumpkin pie, I certainly can’t stop smelling my hands! And of course, I love lip balm of all sorts so this is a win.
~Bliss Pharm Beauty Cinnamon, Clove & Tangerine Hand Sanitizer (1oz) ($11): This is a great fall scent! It’s called Harvest Moon and is a great blend of cinnamon, clove and tangerine. I love the tangerine mixed in with the “deeper” fall scents. It’s always nice to keep hand sanitizer in your purse and having one that smells this good is even better.
~Tin Pony Soap House Cinnamon Whiskey Candle (8oz) ($16): Another awesome item. If a box includes candles, lip balm or nail polish, I am generally going to be happy with those items! Cinnamon Whiskey is a fantastic (not to strong) scent. It’s made with all-natural American grown soy, is paraffin-free and also hand-crafted,
~Benescentials Fall into Winter Aromatherapy Spray (2oz) ($15): I plan on using this as a room spray. I think that’s what it’s supposed to be used for, but it’s not totally clear that it’s a room spray as opposed to a body spray? Anyway, it smells very *fall-like* and again, I love that they put the orange in there for a little citrus scent.
All totaled I came up with a value of $77.49 for the October 2015 Prospurly. That’s using the $14.99 price for the cookie mix, which, as I mentioned seems really high to me. I’d probably value that at $4.99, which makes the “real” value of the box $67.49. It’s still higher than the cost of the box, but it’s also not the $80+ value they promise.
