Swaag Box Review

 

Hello Everyone! Today, we are going to talk about not only a great subscription service, but a NECESSARY service. Swaag Box also known as the "Time of the Month" Box not only makes that time of the month easier but spoils you as well. . 

What Is Swaag Box? How do I sign up?

"Each period cycle we send you necessary supplies as well as jewelry and makeup. Choose from name brand tampons and pads, tell us your skin type and fashion type and we will customize your jewelry and makeup to your wants.

Each month our personal shoppers find the best jewelry pieces and name brand makeup to match your needs, those items along with your tampons or pads of choice are then expertly packaged and shipped via USPS to your front door.

We also offer options to add to your box. Choose Venus razor blade refill cartridges and/or double the jewelry and makeup each month." (for an extra $6)

The cost of each box is $16 a month for a normal subscription. If you want to double the jewelry and makeup or add on any extras keep in mind that the price will vary up from there. The double makeup and jewelry is an extra $6, and if you add razors I believe it's an extra $12 for a 4-pack.

My Box Contents/My Thoughts

First Look -  When I opened the box the first thing that really caught my eye was not only the tampons but the packaging. It's like each one was a present just waiting for me to open!

 

I choose to get my usual brand of Tampax Pearl in an 18 count.

They have many brands you can choose from which include Tampax, Always, Kotex, and Playtex. You can choose pads, tampons, or even none (if you wish to just get jewelry and makeup). I love that this is an option it would be almost like getting an Ipsy bag with added jewelry, which I think is a really great deal as well. 

Value: $4.97

 

The first jewelry item I received was a "Live In The Moment" bracelet. At first I was disappointed because 80 percent of the bracelets out there don't fit me (I have a freakishly small wrist). However, I LOVE this! It is not only a powerful statement and made in the US (major brownie points for that!), but the bracelet is adjustable. This made it fit really well, and I also like that it reminds me a lot of Alex and Ani bangle bracelets (which is basically all I wear).

Value: $9.95

 

 

The next item I received was if not my favorite item in the box. Roses have always been sort of a trademark for me (that and elephants), so I really appreciated the necklace. I think the only thing that could of made it even better is if it was gold-toned.

Value: $19.95? (my guess off of similar necklaces)

 

The next item in my box was a makeup/tool item. I've actually been meaning to get a new one of these to help get rid of any clumps when applying mascara. Even though it wasn't a "thrill" item; it was a much needed item.

Value: $2.99? 

 

The last part of my box were makeup items. I absolutely adore the boxes that they came in. It really promotes positivity. 

In the first box...

 

Cailyn - Line Fix Gel Eyeliner in Black 

I've had this eyeliner in the past, and while I am not crazy about gel liner's this is the best one on the market in my opinion. I think part of the reason it's so wonderful (aside from the formula) is the built in brush. This was the perfect makeup item for me!

Value - $21 (FULL SIZE!)

 

Coolway - Glow Oil Treatment

I've tried this in the past. I believe it was from an Ipsy bag or Birchbox. It actually works quite well, especially if you have dry hair like mine.

Value: $3? 

(I am guessing on this since it's a sample size, and I don't see it labeled how much is in it. The full size of this is $29.95).

Ciga Los Angeles Shimmer Shadow #5

I only found one person selling this shadow and it was on Amazon. I looked and looked but couldn't find out anything else about the company. This is a shame, because I'd love to buy more. This color is like a gold/green really shimmery kind of color. It's unlike any other shadows I have.

Value: $9.95? (guess from a similar shadow being sold)

In the second box...

 Bellapierre Pink Cheek/Lip Stain

I am already a huge fan of this brand, and you can't go wrong with a pink lip/cheek color. This was a win-win in my book.

Value: $19.99 (FULL SIZE!)

Cargo Cosmetics Jet Lag Concealer 

You can get a choice of light or medium in this concealer. I always choose the lightest color because of my skin-tone. I really appreciate that Swaag Box got this right, and listened to my needs. Not to mention this is my first time trying it, and so far I am really liking it.

Value: $30 (FULL SIZE!)

Sampar Paris - So Much To Dew Midnight Mask

This was a sample but what I did use made my skin super soft. I would love to try the full size product. I also really appreciate that they included an item from Paris.

Value: $3? ($27.59 for the full size on Amazon)

  I received an estimated value of around $125! That's amazing and I have to say Swaag Box is defiantly winning me over for subscribing in the future. I even got to try some new products. What do you think about Swaag Box?

On The Dot - The Perfect Spot [Review & GIVEAWAY]

Hello Everyone! If your wondering what this pretty red and black box is up above, it is the brand new innovation called "On The Dot Perfect Spot" and is the perfect feminine storage solution! I am so excited to talk about this product with you today, because its unlike any product I have ever had a chance to review!

Who Is On The Dot?

There story is really quite interesting here is how they started in their own words: 

"One day, high school student Sonja left an unusual box on the floor in the bathroom. Audrey, Sonja’s mom, noticed it and had to take a look. She opened the box by pulling on the handle and found a unique inner compartment filled with tampons and pads.”Great idea,” Audrey smiled. Audrey knew Sonja had stumbled on a truly great idea, and she decided they needed to run with it. Audrey and her artist husband helped further develop Sonja’s original design, adding an upper drawer,lower storage compartment, a sliding feature as well as a plastic protective base and handle. Their project has gone from a box in the family bathroom to a decorative dispenser, ready to be shared with women everywhere..."

I love how such a simple idea became an amazing household concept, that I think has the potential to one day be a household name. Not to mention 10% of all On The Dot profits go to charities for woman, worldwide! Now, how amazing is that!?

 The Product/My Thoughts

Don't Let Your Period Cramp Your Style

"On the Dot Perfect Spot stores your monthly essentials in a designer dispenser that looks great anywhere in your bathroom.

Goodbye embarrassing tampon boxes and pad bags.

Now everything you need is discreetly within reach.

Because you never know when you're going to get your period."

What I really love about this product is that it is a brilliant idea, yet such a simple concept! Here is the product in it's natural element (above). The design you see in the picture is "Monarch." Aside from "Monarch" they also have, design's such as "Dreamy Duskywing" (on the left) & "California Sister (on the right. seen below).

You pull the handle up and inside is a lot of space! Even though it's ment for storing your pads and tampons, you could store all kinds of items in it. I could see using these for things like your razors and many other items, especially if you have a small kid or kids, you don't want getting ahold of.

It is seriously AH-mazing how much you can store in the Perfect Spot! As you can see below, I put tampons, pads, and pantyliner's in it. I had managed to stick 3 boxes of tampons it with ease on top, and a full size thing of pads as well, in the bottom. Still having more room to spare.

One other thing I also have to mention, is how well this product is made and the way it was shipped. I liked how it came in a box that said "Fragile" in order for it not to get damaged, as well as how sturdy the box is. It even has a plastic lining at the bottom to protect it from getting damaged over time!

Overall Product Score: 4.8*

 I would have to say I would recommend this product. I give this product pretty much a perfect score, and leave .2 points, because there is always room for improvement. This is however the highest product score I have given a product in SOME time, so this should tell you how brilliant I think this is. I think this would be the perfect essential to any woman or young woman's day to day life. If you would like to purchase one you can buy it on their official website located here for $24.99, or you can WIN one below! That's right, On The Dot is giving one to my readers, of their design choice, for FREE!
