First Impressions
Find warmth in simple joys and peaceful moments. - Vellabox
I can't believe how quickly a month can pass by—it feels like I was just unboxing the October Vellabox, and now we're already a week into November! I'm all about coziness, and I'm soaking up the shorter days and earlier nights. After a brief break, our sports schedules are about to get busy again, so this month's Vellabox arrived at the perfect time to create a relaxing atmosphere in our home, all while filling it with an amazing scent. And with a surprise gift and a curated Spotify playlist included, it’s more than just a box—it’s a whole experience!
What's Inside the Box
Vellabox "Oversized Flannel" - Retail Value $38.00
Vellabox is seriously one of my favorite subscriptions of all times and I have yet to receive a scent I don't enjoy. That being said, this month we received one of their very own branded candles. "Oversized Flannel" was their top selling fall scent last year, and for good reason! While I didn't receive a candle with this scent previously, I did receive the lotion, and it was amazing!! Featuring notes of mahogany, cedar wood, and amber, this candle literally smells like my husband does after a walk in the woods. Clean, crisp, woodsy, and masculine. With a powerful scent throw, this radiates throughout the downstairs of our house, giving off the perfect fall aroma. Paired with a simplistic design, I am currently using a moose antler shed to house this wax, and love the rustic, homey feel it gives! Made with soy wax and premium fragrance oils, this 16 ounce candle has a burn time of about 80 hours and literally smells like heaven. 1000% recommend!
Now for the secret item!
Wild Rosemary Hand Cream - Retail Value $10
With the chilly temps already underway, my hands are showing the effects of the dry November weather. This month as our secret item, we received a bottle of "Wild Rosemary" hand cream. This lotion features notes of rosemary, sea salt, sage, eucalyptus, juniper, and cedar. With a light, non-greasy consistency, this lotion has nice coverage and smells earthy, yet sweet. A great addition to my purse, this was a timely inclusion that has already come in very handy.
Was This Box Worth It?
The Cost: $29
Vellabox is a fabulous subscription, and one I look forward to receiving each and every month. Because I burn candles almost every single day, I like natural ones that are free of chemicals. Since starting this subscription, I have stopped burning big-box store candles, and have replaced them with these, which has made a huge impact on our furnace filter! The combination of the woodsy candle, earthy hand cream, and Spotify playlist continues to leave me impressed. I already can't wait to see what's in store for December!
