Love Goodly Dec/Jan Unboxing!

The first week of January is almost over. It's snowing outside and everyone is advised to stay in their houses. It's a great day to be blogging. Today I want to share with you guys my first Love Goodly Subscription box.😚 Just for reference I am giving the value of each product, but the box itself is always $30


Here is how the box came. I like the big Love Goodly logo, it's very bright and happy looking. Everything was very tightly packed. Recently Love Goodly made their boxes smaller so that it would use less cardboard. Even though it was tightly packed, nothing was smashed.

The first thing in the box, is this. Love Goodly personally wrote the little handwritten Merry Christmas note. One of the perks of a smaller company😄



 The second thing is another note. This includes info on the box guest curator Emily Deschanel, a long time vegan and actress (She plays Temperance Brennen in one of my favorite TV shows Bones). The card also has a little info on Farm Sanctuary, the charity for this month's box. Every month Love Goodly donates  5% of each Box to some sort of charity.

Next in the box is this Facial Steam by Mullein & Sparrow. It's supposed to cleanse and open up the pores in your face; you heat up a pot of water, put some of the leaves in it and stick your face close to the steaming pot. This is probably one of the things I am less ecstatic about. I'm not really into "relaxing" facial products. With that said,  I read a little about the company Mullein & Sparrow and their values- to say the least I was impressed (read about it here).
I've  heard this can also be used as a tea, so I'm not sure if I might try it for that instead? Value $10


Next in the box is this Boom Chicka Pop Sweet & Salty Kettle Corn. This is a vegan popcorn snack. I honestly didn't really look at this stuff very hard when I first got it. Besides its pretty packaging, I wasn't too interested. In fact, at first I thought it was potato chips because I simply didn't look at it that hard😋 More on this later. Value $1.50


Cote is a brand of vegan cruelty-free, non toxic(ish) nail polish. The bottle says it is free of dbp, formaldehyde, resin, toluene & camphor. I didn't even know nail polish had formaldehyde in it! That's so wrong.😣 Anyways, I love this color that they sent, No. 37. My favorite nail colors are either black or red, so I was super excited about this polish. Value $18


Pacifica is a brand I have used and researched thoroughly. Vegan and Cruelty-free, they have a special recycling program and all their packaging is 100% recyclable. You can read about their mission here. Value $10


The last thing in this box was this MyChelle Perfect C Serum. This product is supposed to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Value $44 

Unfortunately, this product came damaged and was leaking when I opened it up. I wasn't worried though because I was already aware of Love Goodly's policy that they would send a new product if one was damaged during shipping. So we contacted Love Goodly and they were MORE than happy to send me a replacement. Did I mention how nice they were about it? They were more than helpful and super sweet. The replacement came super quickly in this adorable package....

Ok guys, that is all for this Love Goodly box. I hope you enjoyed the unboxing. I will try to work on reviewing the items for you soon, once I actually get a chance to try them all!

thanks for tuning in.

Peace. Love. Rats♥
