Margot Elena Subscription Box – Summer 2019 Review

I’m not going to use some items from my Summer 2019 box. Can I list items here for sale??

I love the Imagine perfume, i would be willing to swap for more if someone doesn’t want / enjoy theirs!!!

I am on the swap site, new to it but have no idea how to begin the process…I have lots to swap!!

Absolutely love my Margot Elena Discovery Box, So Much fun to receive and try new products. Love getting the shower gels and hand creams! The cards in this box were really nice, too!

I am on the fence about keeping this sub. I like it, but I feel like the retail value is really inflated. $20 for that pencil sleeve? I would never pay that. The smells are really pleasing, I just can’t decide if it’s too much to spend for soap and lotion.

Looking forward to getting mine! I love Margot Elena!

I received my box and love it so much. It’s my second from this subscription. The packaging is amazing and would be an impressive gift. I love scents and the only one I’ve ever been opposed to is rose. If you are sensitive to smells or picky about fragrance this definitely is NOT the sub for you.
The amount of items is impressive as well and I do love the variety. The only real repeat is two lotions.
Already looking forward to fall!

My box arrived, and I adore it! I like to set aside a few items from these boxes as gifts, but I want to keep every item in this one for myself :). That said, my water bottle arrived damaged, and my perfume arrived spilled / half empty. I emailed the company but am curious if anyone else’s items arrived damaged like this? Thankfully the perfume was very well wrapped, so the spillage was contained. However, I’m bummed to be out the water bottle and perfume. I’m hoping they will be willing / able to replace them. Anyone have a similar experience? What was the outcome? Thanks!

Whew, these comments are all over the place, lol. I received my box today and decided to stay away from spoilers (except for the first water bottle one) and so glad I did! Everything is lovely…even though I knew what I was getting into when I ordered the box, I was a bit unsure how I would feel about the scents since I tend to prefer those that are more earthy. I really loved everything, including the perfume. Meagan, did you spray the perfume itself on your skin? I can see what you mean about the coconut scent when smelling it off the skin, but that didn’t stand out at all to me when I sprayed it on my body. Just thought I would mention since body chemistry can change the fragrance.

Got my lovely box today and that bar of soap is HUGE 2” x 4” I may try and cut in half.

Does anyone know if the water bottle is dishwasher safe?

I just received my box yesterday.

I’m wondering if anyone has any creative ideas for the water bottle? I know I’d break it using it for its intended purpose 🙈- it’s too fragile for my bedside and traveling. I’m a klutz.

I really hope my box arrives soon. Recently we have received some of our neighbor’s boxes and they have gotten some of ours. Everybody has been great about dropping off anything delivered to the wrong address but I did have one package that said it was delivered but never appeared. I do worry about boxes being taken off our doorstep & hope I don’t need to change my subscription habits. I can’t have things delivered to where I work and I work such long hours that I can’t ever get to the post office when it is open. Oh well, my fingers are crossed.

I’ve been a subscriber since the first box and sadly this is the first box I haven’t cared for. The water bottle is lovely but I didn’t care for a single scent. I hope for a wonderful Fall box.

Cancelling. Cheap crap that smells like plastic in pretty packaging.

Still my favorite subscription box – everything feels and smells amazing, and it’s so pretty! The care they use in every facet of their products always makes me feel special.

Received my box 4 days early and I love it. I love the smell when I open the box. Most excited about the bottle, body oil, and perfume. Will likely not keep the bar soap (love the smell but don’t use bar soaps), bag, pencils, and lip balm (don’t use lip items where I have to use my fingers).

The stuff smells good but it dries my skin out sooooo bad. I need to drench myself in oil or shea butter after using their body wash and bubble bath. I’ve been with them since the beginning but going to take a break now that my annual is up. Some of the boxes were special and beautiful and hope ME fans continue to enjoy them.

Favorite box so far. Everything smells amazing, the water bottle is beautiful. I’m over the moon

I received my box today, and I think it is my favorite ME box, maybe even subscription box in general, ever!

I was planning to gift a few things, but can’t let go of any of it, with the exception of the beautiful postcards I will be writing notes on to include in some care packages I’m making to get rid of some of my stash of extra products.

I’ll be hitting the swap boards to get as many extras as possible, especially this blood orange lotion. Great job, ME! Can’t wait for fall!

I subscribed to the Margot Elena Box after reading about it on this site. I just received my first box (Summer) and I am overjoyed! This is by far the best subscription box I have ever received, and at a little over $50 when you factor in the shipping, it’s just an incredible value. The box was very carefully and artfully packaged with bubble wrap and peach colored tissue. Everything was set in the box just so, and nothing was damaged or broken. And the products! It’s like going into Anthropologie and being able to grab all of your favorite items from the beauty and gift sections but at a much lower price. I am truly delighted with everything in the box, and I know that I will use every single item. This box would also make a wonderful gift for a mom, sister, or friend. I can’t wait to receive the next box—it’s just too bad I have to wait for a few months 😀

A lot of these comments are so depressing. Maybe those of you who don’t like these products could just not order the box, and let the rest of us enjoy it? I’m really looking forward to my delivery next week. Please leave me in peace.

I love Margot Elena. And I love everything in the subscription I think it’s a great deal. I went to the site Tlc recommended to look up ingredients and did a search on Margot Elena (you can search under a company name as well) and the products they examined actually scored pretty safe, so I’m not sure what this is all about, but I think the recommendation to do your own research is a good one.

You’re paying for the experience. and the fine fragrances. These are not your mass commercialized scents. You’re also not going to find many ingredient decks out there in general in the IndieBrand world – the industry is changing so much brands can’t keep up with consumerism and are constantly changing formulations to keep up with regulations. A LOT of work goes into keeping the formulation compliant, testing, packaging updates, resourcing ingredients.. let alone keeping marketing up to date. If you want full transparency, go to the store and take a look at the package yourself.

It’s so disheartening how hard people are on brands these days. If you want the SAFEST product in the universe, literally YouTube it, DIY it yourself, and make sure to use it within 48 hours because without preservatives, bacteria can grow in your product, and things like E Coli happen under your fingernails or in your shower. I’d rather be able to continuously put on a product throughout the day to maintain dryness than keep making my own handcreme.

Additionally please do your own research on these products instead of listening to other people spewing off inaccuracies. I know for a fact that the Cottage Greenhouse items include ingredients that are completely made in the USA, do not contain parabens & are never tested on animals. Actually I think all of the Margot Elena items are free of harmful parabens. Make some phone calls, do your own research. Don’t be sheep.

This is my favorite subscription box! I have been so pleased with everything they have sent to me. I always look forward to it’s arrival ! There are so many wonderful scents and products inside! I love the French Kiss Perfume from Tokyo Milk, lasts all day. Looking for my box to come soon! The Cottage Greenhouse is soo nice! Have used Love and Toast for many years now, love their lip balms! Bring on the Cherry Lemonade Lip Balm!
