Sit Down and Get Comfortable: 

This review is taken from Pnut’s Laundry Closet. Apparently travertine does not photograph well in the dark and eating chocolate in bathrooms was not a good idea as I thought a day after my post. My laundry closet is too small for me to eat chocolate I will need to be more stealthy in my reviews of noms. Credit goes to my watching hours of JuJeBe diaper bag reviews on YouTube.com as some of the mommas unpack their bags in the laundry room because it has the best light in the dark. Note: I am not submitting my name for the best photography lol.

Let’s Get This Box Opened!!!

If I was not fatigued by mystery moving boxes, I am almost sure that the past Box of Style’s were not patterned and were a flat black. And the added touch of silver crunchy packaging thinges! All fancy!!!

The Hero Item My Hero Alexis Bittar

Alexis Bittar

I linked to the drop earrings of my dreams since Zoe’s hero item is an exclusive Gold Tone with Swarovski Crystals Cocktail Ring designed by the one, the only, ALEXIS BITTAR

I was soooooooo very excited to get this as the hero item. My Pnut saving abilities forbade me from purchasing a piece. Thankfully, Zoe must have felt my pain and had provided me with an adjustable ring to fit on my tiny fingers.

FYI Subista Sistas: PNut manicured her right hand for you. For YOU (it’s one coat of Zoya’s NYX)!

Alexis Bittar Ring on my tiny finger!
Alexis Bittar Ring on my tiny finger!

See! I got my Alexis Bittar to go on my tiny finger. For size reference, my index finger is size 5 and my ring finger is size 4. The Alixis Bittar ring looks uncomfortable, but it is comfortable. I did notice like my Subista Sista Mailbox Junkie that a stone in the middle was askew (see her review here) and I did send an email on that and of another item as you will see when you read along. BUT.I.LOVE.IT!!!

My PRECIOUSSSSSSS…

Lelet NY Swarovski Crystal Hair Pin

Lelet NY Hair Pin

I love sparkly things. I love crystals especially when they are Swarovski crystals! And a pouch to boot! You know we at Subscriptionista love our pouches and boxes!!!

Pipsqueak Modeling
Pipsqueak Modeling

I tried to put the Lelet NY on Pipsqueak, the eldest of my wee army, but this is the best picture I got. I tried with Squeak as she has thicker hair. but she only accepts bows. And Squeakette has peach fuzz, so that’s that.

Exclusive = Free Advertising

SOS Foot Petals

This claims to be an Zoe exclusive, but all I notice is free advertising for both brands. Hey, I call it as I see it. Regardless, both brands are awesome sauce, and I do own a few SOS products.

Our Heiday Notecard Set

Before I was a subscription box lady, I was into Cranes Stationary for all my correspondences. Then I got into sub boxes and was quite impressed with the quality of the stationary I received. Plus with a wee army, I really did not need to spend 30 minutes in a Cranes Stationary store to choose carefully my selections during the big (December and May if I recall and you are welcome) sales. I think they charged for shipping, so that is how I avoided online shipping. I digress, I like the weight of this notecard set although I would love it if it was a folded notecard set, but I will deal.

I am always like “where is the rest of the card” with note cards!

Face Wipes! A favorite of those too lazy to wash their face!
Honest Company Face Wipes

Honest Company Face Wipes

We love our face wipes here at Subscriptionista for sure! If you read our posts and commentary, you will see that each of us gives a little TMI into our (useful) uses.

For washing faces when too lazy to pat water to cooling down our cleavage and pits, they are a godsend!

Honest Company Lippy Crayon

Honest Beauty Lip Crayon

Wow she is a beauty! I am not touching this as this lippy is going to paradise where Mailbox Junkie lives since she loves this. Merry belated holidays to you Mailbox Junkie this is going your way in January! I have no idea why swappers swap especially during the holidays which is why I do not swap. Makes life easier when you just send people stuff without pressure. Especially when you still are unpacking the stuff you want to give away. I actually just dumped a bunch of stuff from mystery moving boxes on the floor today, and I think it was very effective. I digress.

Pnut does not like standing in line at USPS with a wee army during the holidays. Digression again.

Ciate Nail Polish

Ciate Nail Polish

Want to know a secret . . . with my stash of Zoyas I have a bunch of mini Ciates because the caviar beads were calling my name when an advent calendar went on sale at Sephora during a past holiday. I like the application, but I have no clue what is up with this nail polish it appears old and I shook it. I shook it like a tailfeather! This was the second item I had an issue with my Zoe box that I sent a message to Zoe CS.

Shake that tailfeather!

Marula Oil Rare Oil Intensive Mask and Rare Oil Treatment

Marula Oil Set from Paul Mitchell

Yes, ladies. Paul Mitchell, once dated, is making a comeback with this awesome Marula Oil set! My husband still loves Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Shampoo, and I use it on occasion because I love the tingles. Any conditioner in pot form usually rocks, so I am looking forward to using this. I used the Marula oil on my cuticles so you will see succulent cuticles in my the following picture below…

Stay tuned for succulent cuticles!

Verdict: Short of two issues with two items, I am in love with this luxe box. I did not want to take off that Alexis Bittar ring and might wear it just because it sparks joy. I was seriously unpacking with the move with that ring on. Very fashionable. I also had Zoe’s Miansai gold bracelet from her first box on but it got uncomfortable after a while. I digress. I love everything and will use everything and will stay on board for another year!

Someone ask me in the comments below after awhile to see whether I got around to manicuring my left hand.

    I totally get sucked in to all your digressions! Pipsqueak is an adorable model!

    I’m so glad you love this box and that you were able to get the ring to fit your tiny fingers!

  3. December 13, 2015 at 7:19 pm

    The ring does look painful! I’m glad that the ring brought you lots of joy! Pipsqueak is adorable. Love it – reviews from the laundry closet.

    Haha, I love this review. I am guessing no that you did not manicure your other hand. I actually did mine last night for the first time in a few months! I <3 nail wraps! 90% less f-ups for me =D =D =D

    I wasn't sure about that ring before, but it looks really nice on your manicured and supple fingers. This seems like a good box, but I would never ever buy a $90 hairpin. I can barely remember to buy my special ginormous bobby u-pins for thick hair, and I snap at least one per week.

    • December 14, 2015 at 9:21 am

      Thanks! Hey toss in some nail wrap scraps I will try doing a practice accent nail before I take a dive.

      I did my other hand yesterday lol.

    Fabulous review Pnut, your daughter is lovely.Thank you so much!

  6. December 14, 2015 at 9:23 am

    I informed Pipsqueak of her fans and she says thank you and stayed tuned for an Egg Drop review from us this week the Eggs will Drop any day from the mail anyday now!

    I just had the weirdest experience with RZBOS, and need to share. So my hair pin is missing a crystal, so I sent them an email like “Hey, it’s missing a crystal, can anything be done” and got this:
    “Hi Lindsay,
    Thank you for contacting The Zoe Report! We apologize for the inconvenience and would be happy to send you a new Lelet NY hair pin and a Ciate London nail polish. We will arrange with our warehouse and send you tracking as soon as we hear back. Also can you please return the damaged product back to us.
    xoxo
    Team Zoe”
    Nothing about shipping, no address of where to ship to, no label- This is weird, right?

    • December 15, 2015 at 8:17 am

      At least you got a response! If they want me to return the Ciate I will do so but I am holding on to Alexis Bittar until they send me a replacement I am not going to deal with the possibility of “we ran out” and not return the defective item back to me

      Maybe when they “hear back” they will give you the info?

      • December 15, 2015 at 1:15 pm

        They just responded on where to send it, and then said they will issue me up to a $5 refund for shipping- But no details on that. This feels messy.

        • December 18, 2015 at 2:48 pm

          I am on my cell and have been getting a zillion emails with holidays offers so my email doesn’t go that far. I got a response from BOS (I did not tell them I am a blogger and my email account with them is not tied to Subscriptionista). They stated I would get my nail polish replaced but I have not received any further notice nor did they say I had to return the nail polish. I reall do not care if they send another one I bet it will still be “old” looking.
          The ring they claimed to look like that but if I paid retail for a ring (or if I hypothethically had a custom made) I would not my ring to look like that it is unacceptable….

    I just found your site while looking for box of style reviews and love your reviews! I’m still waiting for my box – it took three emails to them to get a tracking number and now delivery is pushed back to December 21. They’re not responsive and this will probably be my one and only order.

    • December 18, 2015 at 3:11 pm

      Thanks and welcome to Subscriptionista! I think its harder to get customer service during the holidays at least you got a tracking number so its official 🙂
