CurlKit is one of very few subscription services dedicated to hair care. Mainly focused on the needs of curly hair, they provide a variety of quality products that can be hard to find in stores. CurlKit also has an online shop where you can purchase products found in their subscription.
My Subscription Addiction paid for this box. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).
THE BOX: CurlKit
THE COST: $20 a month + $5.00 shipping
THE PRODUCTS: A variety of 6-9 hair care samples
SHIPS TO: US (and International fees apply)
Each box comes with a “CurlLife” pamphlet and a few product cards. Our pamphlet is titled “Love Your Look”. This month is another TakeOver from Creme of Nature, but from their “Straight From Eden” line of products. Every month CurlLife includes a note from the Co-Founder, Heather Cummings; photos and descriptions of the products received; an article/interview of a Naturalista; and some sort of hair care tip/tutorial. This month’s featured Naturalista is Singer/Actress V. Bozeman.
Tiffany - Deluxe Satin Sleep Cap in Black Extra Large - Value: $3.99
My bonus item this month! I’m not sure if subscribers received anything other than a bonnett this month. Let us know down below. I like getting new bonnetts in subscription boxes. I always lose them so it’s nice to have a back up.
Creme of Nature Straight From Eden
Natural Oil-Infused Repairing Oil 5ml- Value: $1.00
This is listed as our 2nd bonus item, so I believe everyone received this in their box. I’m not a fan of single “Not for Sale” samples like this. With all the hair I have, I need much more than this to see if I like it or not. I wish we there were two or three of these. On a good note, there’s a coupon for a Free Full Size bottle on the back!! Awesome! I’m going to throw this in my purse and pray that I can find it before my coupon expires in January 2016. Fingers Crossed, I don’t usually have good luck finding newer products in my area. I feel like Kentucky is always last on the list. Cincinnati, Nashville and Indianapolis are not too far but somehow these cities will stock newer items months before us!
Creme of Nature Straight From Eden
Natural Oil-Infused Hydrating Shampoo FULL SIZE- Value: $10.79
This shampoo is said to be gentle and made with coconut, and other natural oils to cleanse and detangle hair. It smells nice. I’m not sure if I’m going to keep this shampoo. I’m a little bit confused on some of the ingredients listed. I try not to be too snooty with my hair care ingredients, but when a product claims to be sulfate-free, but then see “sulfonate” listed...alarms automatically fire off. Honestly, I want to watch a few video reviews before using this on myself or the kiddos.
Creme of Nature Straight From Eden
Natural Oil-Infused Hydrating Conditioner FULL SIZE - Value: $6.47
This conditioner is also infused with natural oils and is said to rehydrate the hair and can also be used as a deep conditioner. There’s a billion ingredients here but nothing is popping out as weird to me. I can definitely use this in the kiddos’ hair right before baths.
Creme of Nature Straight From Eden
Natural Oil-Infused Leave-In Conditioner FULL SIZE- Value: $10.99
This leave-in conditioning spray detangles, and protects hair. It’s made with natural oils and has to be shaken before each use. I’ve been using it all week in both my hair and the kids. It seems to work much better in the kiddos looser curl pattern. For me, it felt fine immediately after, but felt very dry at the end of the day. This could be due to the cold weather. I’m really not sure.
Verdict: This month’s CurlKit had an estimated retail value of $33.50. I received 4 full sized items and 1 freebie, but it’s worth even more if I can utilize the coupon! I can’t say I’m very excited about this month’s box. I’m seeing a pattern with hair products these past months with Creme of Nature popping up everywhere. I’m of course happy to try new hair products, especially ones that I can’t find in my local stores. I wish for once we could get a TakeOver from a brand that’s normally only found in boutiques or online only.
What did you think of CurlKit this month? Did you get the same bonus items?
