No, but I might have to check them out!
#3 was from Popsugar. I just finally got rid of mine at Christmas. Lol. I just couldn’t figure out where to put it.
Probably a tie between the Unhides and IGK charcoal dry shampoo. That stuff is the best for my baby fine, easily greased up hair. And the unhides make great gifts.
OH, I need to check out this IGK dry shampoo. My hair is also baby fine and prone to looking oily. I recently got so fed up with under-performing, overpriced dry shampoo that I just bought a giant thing of baby powder. I hate the white cast, but I just couldn’t stomach paying out for expensive products that weren’t working for me.
My favorites are all from the late Popsugar box.
-
Bauble Bar snowfall necklace. It just happened to hang just right, have the right weight, etc. I traded for an extra.
-
AJ Nest Wire Bowl. It’s always holding something as the centerpiece on my dinner table.

NCLA Mani ER tool kit. The clippers and tweezers just felt right. Someone stole my kit off my work desk
And honestly my favorite find was probably one of the most low rv value items of boxes ever. It was a “bonus” item in a PS box. The Glade No 3 Coconut and Beach Woods Candle. I traded for like five of them. They really hit just right.
PM me your address and I’ll send you my NCLA Mani ER tool kit . I’ve never used it. It’s just been hanging out in my purse.
Some of those add-ons were amazing! I really love the Hint sunscreen. I still buy it from time to time. The pineapple smells soooo good.
Their water tastes amazing too! I’m hooked!
I adore the hint water. They really make water more enjoyable to drink if you’re over the taste of water.
Thanks so much to everyone who’s contributed to this so far! I love love love this thread, and it really has been a walk down subscription box memory lane thinking back on all the great items we’ve seen in past shipments.
I pulled some of your answers into a roundup for the feed. I tried to pull out my favorites, but:
There were so many great answers! We may need a follow up…
Great article, as usual! I love how you’re able to take random comments and turn them into something cohesive and interesting to read!
I was thinking the same thing!

I think mine is not a product but a person. I was slow to the Huda rage. I saw that she was about to curate a box at Ipsy and I got that X box and I go to her blog . I think she is great! Even my boyfriend knows about her and not from me.
The Emma Hardie moringa cleansing balm! It was featured in a glossy box way back and it is my favorite!! I am obsessed with the smell! If I could buy that as a perfume I would bathe myself in it everyday!
That cleansing balm is really nice! It reminds me of the Elemis one but I don’t remember if they smell the same
Ooh, I love a good cleansing balm. I became obsessed with the Banila Co Zero balm a few years ago, when receiving a full size in the Indie Beauty Expo box. It literally melts on your face. Now when my teen daughter receives the travel size in her Ipsy (that I pay for), I get irritated when she doesn’t give it to me, haha. I can’t recall the name now, but New Beauty had a full size balm in one of last year’s boxes and it’s similar to the Banila the way it melts when you rub on your face.
K- beauty skincare!! It has changed my life and my old, old skin. Although I am not a grandmother and never will be, I am in that age group. It is amazing to find something so superior to any primo US brand skincare at this point in time and at my age.
NOTHING I’ve ever bought comes close to the reasonably priced, super fun and mild K- beauty.
Last week, I wore a 20 minute facial mask with active JELLYFISH ingredients. There was a warning on the mask wrapper, and I was more scared than the first time I tried Benton’s Bee Venom line.
I love Benton Bee products now. Also, Mizon’s Snail filtrated secretions sleeping cream.
