I left the subscription box world two years ago when I went to grad school. Now that I'm back, I've discovered boxes that I never knew existed. Oh how I missed my subscription boxes and I'm so glad to rediscover them all over again. For me subscription boxes are like little gifts I receive every month and become overjoyed by the little discoveries I make.
This month I was very happy to take advantage of Pijon's free box offer back in December and paid $1.99 for shipping. I wanted to test out the box before I gift a subscription to my little sister who is in college right now. Pijon is a subscription box for college students, sort of like a care box they get every month. I find the contents to be suitable for almost anyone.
This box contained a good variety of products from tea to lifestyle items all from brands that can be easily found online or in stores.
These revolution teas smell delicious! I got two blackberry jasmine oolong, mango peach green tea, and raspberry black tea. I love fruit infused teas and drank them all the first chance I got. I only thing I didn't like about them was that the mesh bags allowed some off the fine grains of tea and herbs to escape into my cup, but that's nothing a quick rinse can't fix.
I had the Oat Works smoothies for breakfast the day after I got my Pijon box. I couldn't taste the oats in this smoothie and it did indeed taste is pomegranate blueberry. The bottle tells me that it's gluten-free and contain 2 servings of oats. It did keep me full for a while and almost made me forget to eat lunch haha.
I like "Not Your Mother" products. I'm currently using their dry shampoo and it does the job and is not overly scented like some I have used. I'm not sure if I will use this product because I don't style my hair at all. I just didn't have the talent for hairstyling. But I do know of someone who asked for hair products so I know this spray will go to a good home.
I have this obsession with cups, bottles, and tumblers, so this little portable and light weight Vapur Reflex Foldable Bottle is right up my alley. It's actually the one item I'm super happy to receive, I have been looking for a similar one to carry with me when I go snowboarding and this came just in time. I just wish it was pink, I wish everything is pink.
I have a lot of Color Club nail polish, I think about 40 bottles as of right now. I usually get mine at Ross because the are sell the entire sets at a heavy discount. Each bottle around $8 according to their websites, but I find time for much less. When I showed my friend my new nail polishes she literally ran off the the nude polish. I'm was planning on find the nude polish a new home anyways since I don't wear nude colors, but the red polish is definitely living on my fingers once my shellac manicure grows out.
I really enjoyed this Pijon box. When I got an email from Pijon asking if I want to continue my subscription for the next three months I immediately paid for the next three. I decided that I will get these boxes and review them, then send the entire collection of items to my little sister when I'm done reviewing. Let's hope I don't keep everything.
