Thank you! I am losing track of things lol. Must be NatureBox or another one. Hopefully I'll have Yuzen soon, I am so jealous of everyone who has it already.
Totally agree, the size of the products can be deceiving! That's why I like "deluxe sample" sizes because they're plenty to use to see if you would like the product but they're not so big that you'd waste it. As for the candle, I know the price seems ridiculous for it but I think the important thing is that you consider the 15-hour burn time. Now that is impressive! I like that far better than having to lug around some giant thing to get the same sort of burn time.
That's quite a risk! I'd rather have more items to try that I would like than one single large item that I might love or hate... if that was the case, why not just go and buy the full size to begin with? It seems like you'd get the same result. Haha the candle may be small, but it packs a mighty punch! I've never seen a candle so small have such a LONG burn time. Pretty neat, actually.
I'm not too familiar with eco-friendly brands out there, so my initial impression was that the box contained too many "tiny samples" for $26. I was curious about the actual sample costs. Although many of the products I received didn't give the exact size of the samples, I estimated their sizes with products I own and did a product/cost breakdown for some of them...
wow they were that close to the full size?? they seem really small!! the full size must be smaller than a normal lip productOriginally Posted by bumbeaute /img/forum/go_quote.gif

Those (3) products alone are estimated to be worth about $30+... I couldn't believe it lol. I'm glad those were expensive products because they were my favorite from this box.
Yeah, I don't know if you guys have seen the elf Lip Plumper / Primer -- but it's almost the exact same size as that. The packaging is way bigger than the products lol...
I actually saw that and was thinking about getting it, but I think I'm just going to wait for the summer box instead.
Of the brands listed, I've received the Ambre Blends (really liked them...so expensive or I would have purchased), Jamu massage oil (meh...I ended up giving away), Red Flower Wash and Cream (really liked), Zents bath salts (there were two...loved them both).
