Summer officially started this month and Birchbox has kicked this month's box by theming it 'Jet Set' for travel. Summer is a great time to travel because of the warmer weather and here are the personalized goods Birchbox choose for me.
The month's theme is Oh the places you'll go - Traveling with your little ones
Here is the unbox video for my June Bluum Box -

Early last month, I received notification that I was able to sign up from Beauty Army since I was wait listed. Around a week later, I was asked to check the nine samples available through my login and choose up to 6 samples for the month.
Beauty army is a monthly subscription of beauty samples that costs $12 per month. You take an initial quiz called their 'beauty profile' that creates customized product samples for you to choose from each month. Nine products are available and you choose up to six products for your beauty army box of that month.
Here is the unboxing video + winners announced (of Superfood Snacks & Love with Food Giveaway):
Would you consider yourself a food enthusiast? Would you like to receive unique, hard-to-find tasty bites which varies based on seasonal themes? Well, say hello to Love with Food!

My Julep's May box was highly anticipated because it had a magnetic nail polish called Kylie. The magnetic nail polish had made its debut several months ago retailing between $15 to $20 a bottle and I was excited that Julep came out with their version. It's great to have gotten this polish along with two additional polishes and a mini pedi cream sample with my monthly membership. Can we say a box valued WAY over it's box purchase? I can!
Here is my January Gogogirlfriend unboxing. This box was meant to be a December box but only received it last week. Boo!
The items received were:
Comodynes self tanning
Blossoms Lip gloss in sunset
Blossoms Lip pencil in current
Blossoms all natural shea butter soap in Brazilian Jasmine
Renu Derma creamy cleanser
Blum facial cleanser
Gogo Girlfriend floating candle
Spa Terry Cloth adjustable headband
Thoughts on Gogogirlfriend as a company and its products:
This is my second box with GGG and I am not a fan of the company and its products. I feel that they have bad customer service and the products aren't very high quality with comparison to Birchbox.
The monthly subscription payment is taken during the middle of the month and you don't receive a box until the middle of next month. For this box, they deducted the $12.99 in the middle of December and I didn't receive this box until last week. I think that's ridiculous!
The products are items that I wouldn't purchase on an everyday basis, which is the nice thing about these monthly boxes - the discovery of new products. I could see that the total value of the products sent were worth the $12.99 paid.
I ordered a discounted deluxe box during the first couple weeks of December and I will do an unboxing for that once I get it! But for the time being, I have decided to cancel my membership with GGG.
Have you been with GGG for more than 2 months? How do you like it? What do you think of their customer service?
