Love Goodly Review: December 2024/January 2025

Christen Russo

Love Goodly is a non-toxic and cruelty-free vegan subscription box that sends a mix of 4-5 full-size beautywellness, and lifestyle items every other month for $34.95 (with free shipping). They also offer a VIP subscription for $48.95, which comes with an additional full-size product (or two). Every purchase supports a different cause each month.

This review is for the VIP subscription for $48.95 every other month.

This box was sent to us at no cost for review. (Check out our editorial guidelines to learn more about how we review boxes.)

Note to Canadian Customers: "As of October 28, 2022: At this time, we have paused shipping our bi-monthly subscription boxes and prepaid box plans to Canada; however, you can still purchase the Single Essential or Single VIP Box to ship to Canada. Current active Canada customers are not affected."

Inside the December 2024/January 2025 Box

Love Goodly is back with a box full of winter self-care goods. Ready to see what's inside?

Info about each product is listed inside the folded card. Here you'll also find a little about which charity this month's box supports, plus a 15% a discount code for purchases made from their shop. Typically the month's products are available in the Love Goodly shop shop a little after the box launches, so if you need to re-up on a product you fell in love with, it'll be there waiting for you to buy with your 15% discount.

VIP subscribers will receive an extra product, and a separate card describing it. An additional card was sent this month asking for reviews of the previous box. If you leave a review of the October/November box on their website they'll take 15% off your next Love Goodly delivery.

LUNAM Nurture Perfume Oil, 10 ml – Retail Value $39

We often receive skincare delights with wonderful fragrances through this box, but not often are they perfumes. This small bottle has a roller top and it applies smoothly, absorbs quickly, and floats noticeably around you. It's pleasant. It's a little of everything in the gentle scent realm—it's floral, it's powdery, it's sort of fruity when you first apply it, and it's honeyed. The layered aroma comes together in a jojoba oil carrier, which is of course incredibly hydrating. The mantra printed on the label made me smile: "As I nurture myself, I nurture others."

Evio Beauty Pink Perspective and Tear Catchers Forehead Patches, 2 sets of 3 – Retail Value $18 each

As someone who isn't a huge fan of masks, I'm generally a little skeptical of things I need to stick to my face and sit awkwardly while they do their thing. But we've received under-eye versions of these Evio forehead masks before, and they're a totally different experience from a whole-face mask. In fact, this month we're given two types of forehead masks to try!

Here are the directions for how to use them: "Apply to make-up free forehead. Wear for 20-30 minutes. Remove patch and gently tap any remaining essence in to your skin. NO rinsing needed." All of this so works for me. Plus, the silicone is cooling and stays put. It's not too drippy-wet. So I can go about my home tasks in it, and it feels really nice. Both contain hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate, soften fine lines, and stimulate collagen synthesis.

Freedom Creators Cherry Blossom Witch Hazel Toner, 2 fl oz – Retail Value $15

Witch Hazel is a dark horse natural ingredient that has so many healing properties. It's anti-inflammatory, reduces oiliness, hydrates, balances the skin's pH levels, and more. It's paired here with distilled water and cherry blossom essential oil to make a light facial toner. The floral scent takes a back seat to the damp, earthy smell of the witch hazel, which isn't my favorite, but I have used it nonetheless over the years because it's such a reliable natural option for caring for my skin.

Thoughtful Human Multicolored Heart Card –  Retail Value $5.99

This sweet blank card is from a sustainable stationery company in Oakland, California. Everything they carry from cards to envelopes, to shipping labels and tape, are made with materials that are either plantable, compostable, or recyclable. In this case this heart-patterned card is made with seed paper that can be planted to grow wildflowers!

Luna Nectar Nocturne Magnesium Sleep Oil, 100 ml – Retail Value $39

Finally, VIP subscribers get one more product, and it's a powerful one. Magnesium spray can be supplemented (with caution) for a slew of reasons including to relieve headaches, aid in muscle recovery, improve sleep, calm the nervous system, and more. I used a magnesium spray on the bottoms of my feet years ago while I was contending with frequent migraines. Once they subsided, I stopped, but I'm now interested in how this spray oil might help enhance my sleep quality. Too large of doses or too frequent of use could cause some tricky side effects like bloating or digestion issues, so you may want to check with your doctor before using, or at the very least follow the instructions of using no more than two sprays at once.

Verdict

For the December/January Winter-Holiday box, Love Goodly sent a perfume, two sets of forehead patches, a natural toner, a sweet seed-paper greeting card, and for VIPs, a magnesium spray. I loved the variety this time around! My top pick is the roller perfume, which brings some lightness to the cold, but its supporting cast is being enjoyed as well.
