My Cotton Bunny BFF Box Review

This is my first My Cotton Bunny box and I am SUPER excited!  Who would have ever thought of sending the esentials that women need every month with a few extras to help get through "that time of the month" week?!  I think it's totally awesome!  :) 

Every month they will send a box with your choice of tampons or pads (you can choose different sizes and brands!), some chocolate and a few little extras.  It's a nice way to pamper your self during a yuck time of the month!

The box... Super cute!
What was in the box when I opened it.


This month had a mint chocolate and a chocolate covered pretzel. 
And these are the tampons that I choose. 

A super cool lip balm made just for My Cotton Bunny! 
It even uses a plant that is used to help with cramps!

The bracelet was another little gift this month.  They even sent me a PINK one!  WIN!

Bracelet with the flash on.

Over all I LOVE this box!  :)  I am super excited about the lip balm and will try the candy.  Yeah for a box that meets a need as well as a box that has treats!  :)

This is Eli's Easter Bunny.  Her name is Fifa. 

Eli used his new crayons from his Citrus Lane box this month to draw her.  He drew her all by himself. 

And he won a contest with her!!!

He will be recieving some yummy yummy pouches from Peter Rabbit Organics and a all natural egg dying kit from Wee Can Too Art Supplies.  I am super excited that he was picked as a winner!  And I can't wait to try out the egg dying kit this week when it gets here!  :)  We already know that Peter Rabbit tastes yummy!  :)

Julep First Subscri[tion Box...

So I LOVE nail polish...  I do.  Maybe a little to much!  :)  I don't wear a lot of make up, but I love a good pedicure!  So imagine my happiness when I came upon Julep.  It's basically a monthly delivery box that brings you 3 season friendly nail polish colors.  :)  It's $20.00 a month so I won't be subscribing...  But it was fun to get the free first box and the colors are great!  :)
This was the box that it came in.
The welcome note!
After doing the little quiz that they have, they said that I was
in the "bombshell" category for style...  lol
This was how the packaging looked.  Cute and wrapped so the
nail polish wouldn't crack.
And the nail polish!  The one is an essential cuticle oil,
the middle one is a gold tone and the right one is sparkles! 
Kathleen and Chelsea are the names.  LOVE THEM!

Bluum Baby Box, February 2013

This is going to be our last Bluum Baby Box...  I have enjoyed it but I am tired of the shipping delays.  :(  Plus this box brought some repeats.  Over all I have enjoyed this box, but they are going through some growing pains and you might stear clear for another month or so....  :)  Now on to the review!  :)

The Bluum Baby Box...  Next month they will start a new box that is bigger and has more full sized items.
This is the little card with some info about the box.  This box was called Solids.

CUTE CUTE Spoon!  The oogaa baby silicone spoon in the shape of an airplane.  LOVE THIS!
These are some samples of GO Energy for the skin.  I am not into these... 
But I will put them into a basket for our March of Dimes auction!  :)

This is a coupon code for $25 off of $50 from 7 A.M. Enfant.  I will not be using this either... 
We don't need warm clothes here in Florida and I don't have $50 to drop! 

This is another favorite!  :)  Rockin Green Laundry Detergent sample in Smashing Watermelon.  :)
 YUMMY scent and great stuff!  (I still can't figure out why some of the pictures upload sideways!  :()

This is Tender Defender diaper rash cream!  YEAH!  I love natural diaper rash creams and since
Jack gets diaper rash more often than Eli ever did, we use a lot!

This is another cool item.  It's NurturMe dried organic babyfood. 
You add water and mix and PRESTO you have babyfood!  Great for traveling!

This is a sample of Wexy baggies.  We got 4 sample baggies.  Eli LOVES these!  But they are a a repeat.

Over all:  A good box.  Love the spoon and detergent sample!
Box worth: $18.58 so worth a little more than we paid for the box.
