FabFitFun is a quarterly subscription box from FabFitFun.com. For $49.99 per season, subscribers can customize their own box of items in categories like beauty, fashion, and fitness. It's our readers' top pick for the Best Fitness Subscription Boxes of 2021!
Much like last season, We wanted to review a few different versions of this box to give you a more in-depth view of the possibilities within the FFF curation. This particular assortment is full of items that I thought would make nice complements to my daily gym trips or weekend hikes. They also all feel very, very "fall"!
This box was sent to us at no cost for review. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes.)

What's Inside Our FabFitFun Active Assortment
Choice 1
All subscribers will be able to pick one of the following for their Fall Box:
- amika The Kure – Bond Repair Shampoo & Conditioner Bundle
- Arhaus Waffle Knit Throw Blanket
- Golden Rabbit Cobalt Swirl Small Dutch Oven
- Phantom Chef Fry Pan
- BLAQ Battery Powered Toothbrush
- Uncommon James Set of 2 Copper Canisters
- Uncommon James Set of 2 Silver Canisters
- Pottery Barn Mason Diffuser – Solstice
My Pick: BLAQ Battery Powered Toothbrush - Retail Value $50
Like so many of us, my schedule is packed tight and sometimes I don't have time to go home between my morning gym time and my job. Because of this, I have my own locker at my gym and I try to keep it stocked with decent body wash, toothpaste, and a toothbrush. Something felt very "extra" about having an electric toothbrush at my fingertips after a good workout! This sleek black brush is battery-powered and really elevates my less than ideal locker-room mirror time.
Choice 2
All subscribers will be able to pick one of the following for their Fall Box:
- Uncommon James Cheeseboard
- Coach Open Circle Necklace and Tea Rose Stud Set
- ARHAUS® Copper Candle – Evergreen
- ARHAUS® Copper Candle – Moroccan Spice
- Cloudnola Block Clock
- Rodial Beauty Pink Diamond Lifting Serum
My Pick: Cloudnola Block Clock – Retail Value $45
Part of being active in the morning is actually getting out of bed, and this pick was one of necessity since my older alarm clock finally decided to go to alarm-clock heaven. I have been using my iPhone alarm while I waited for this to arrive, and this is a big upgrade. First, the minimal design of a faux-marble cube totally fits the vibes of my bedroom. It can be used with the provided batteries or you can plug it in with the included USB cord. My only real complaint is that the cord could be longer. This little cube fits perfectly in the palm of my hand and is a subtle clock choice for any room.
Choice 3
All subscribers will be able to pick one of the following for their Fall Box:
- Camp Gladiator Jump Rope + 3 Months of Camp Gladiator Workouts
- Dose & Co. Pure Collagen
- Stojo Collapsible Cup with 4 Reusable Straws
- Amanda Uprichard Belt Bag in Standard or Plus
- APL All-Purpose Packable Backpack
- Benefit Cosmetics The POREfessional Pore Minimizing Primer
- ALTERNA® Caviar Anti-Aging Replenishing Moisture CC Cream
- PATTERN Beauty Curl Gel
- Vera Bradley Compact Organizer
- Philip Kingsley Finishing Touch Polishing Serum
My Pick: APL All-Purpose Packable Backpack - Retail Value $60
This was the item I was the most excited about because it is just so cute! Do I need another backpack? Absolutely not. But just look at it! Other than being adorable, it is also extremely lightweight. Literally, you can fold it up into itself and it fits in the palm of your hand. Don't let that fool you though, it's strong and more than tough enough for my gross gym sneakers, protein shaker, and most anything else I need to haul to and from my car and the gym.
Choice 4
All subscribers will be able to pick one of the following for their Fall Box:
- FRYE Bamboo Boot Sock – 2 Pack
- Cocus Pocus Buffalo Check Baseball Cap
- M.A.D Skincare Glycolic Age Diffusing Cleanser
- M.A.D Skincare Delicate Skin Cleansing Gel
- M.A.D Skincare Salicylic Cleansing Gel
- KORRES Renewing Body Cleanser – Santorini Grape
- ELEMIS Papaya Enzyme Peel
My Pick: Cocus Pocus Buffalo Check Baseball Cap - Retail Value $38
I don't always wear baseball hats to the gym, but on cardio days or for outdoor hikes, they really do a great job of keeping my shorter hair out of my face and from allowing sweat to drip down into my eyes. Sorry, I am a sweat-er. This one might be more geared towards outdoor activities since it is made out of a cozier flannel check fabric, but I am content to reserve it for hikes through crunchy fall leaves!
Choice 5
Annual subscribers will be able to pick one of the following for their Fall Box.
- Talking Tables Trivia Box – Food & Drink
- True Moringa Shea & Moringa Balm
- VOESH Pedicure in a Box
- Purlisse Pumpkin + Ginger Detoxifying Charcoal Mask
- Gloss Moderne Clean Luxury Hair Masque
(Annual subscribers get to pick their item. Seasonal subscribers will be surprised.)
My Pick: Purlisse Pumpkin + Ginger Detoxifying Charcoal Mask, 2.5 fl oz - Retail Value $48
One of the only downsides to trying to get a workout in each morning is that I totally break out more often from sweating. This has been weirdly apparent on my shoulders and jawline. And it makes me feel less than cute. I also have dry skin, so clay-based masks like this are usually a no-go, but I actually have been loving them as spot treatments or used on my shoulders when I do have a breakout. And, as someone who isn't typically a pumpkin lover, I am happy to report that this scent is much more of an "autumn spice" sort of scent that I found quite cozy.

I picked: Bundle 9
Zoe Ayla Combs, Earth Harbor Marina Brightening Ampoule, and The 2Bandits Tiered Catchall Tray
FYI: This assortment was picked before an item change. Per FFF:
Due to a last-minute change, we had to remove the Kayo Body Scrubber from the bundle assortments it was included in for Customization 6. However, we’re super excited about the item it’s being replaced with, the Zoe Ayala Comb set, which is perfect for all hair types! We’re really happy that the team was able to secure this amazing item and that it’s part of the bundle options this season. We hope you love customizing your Fall Box, and we can’t wait for your new items to arrive on your doorstep!
Bundles will arrive to subscribers with Zoe Ayla Combs instead of the blue Kayo Body Scrubber.
I snagged this bundle because I thought the little catchall would be great in my locker for smaller items (it is!) and the ampoule is such an easy and beneficial skincare layer to apply right out of the shower. The body scrubber is also great for the gym shower because it has loops for hanging so I never have to set it down in there (ew).
Verdict
FabFitFun is a subscription with so much choice and variety that you can customize it for anyone or around any loose "theme" you want. And I thought it lent itself to a gym/fitness angle really well this season! You never know exactly what options you are going to see when customization time comes around, but I never would have thought I would be getting a toothbrush, flannel hat, or an alarm clock in a box, but here we are! I loved my choices for this assortment and think there was a nice value here for the cost of the subscription. And, of course, the fun factor of picking items always adds to the value for me!
