I love that this was personalized!  It is such a nice touch.  A floral headband is this month’s add-on.  Can’t wait to see it.

The note, attached to the box lid, gives some insight to the theme.

May 2016

If you’re reading this that means you have finally received your May box.  How exciting!  This month’s theme is Forever Summer.  This month’s box is filled with everything a girl needs for the fun filled and busy summer in bright, bold colors.  There is even an exclusive multi-purpose travel comb included!  Be sure to stop by our Instagram or Facebook pages to show us how you are putting your box to use and all the amazing hairstyles you create with your products!  Don’t forget to stop by the website and check out the shop for additional products, like the floral halo headband to buy for a special someone or just for yourself.  No judgement!  I wish you great hair days ahead and enjoy your products!

XOXO,

Amber

This is my first look in, after removing the tissue paper.  Everything is safely nestled in squiggles for protection.

So pretty!  Everything laid out.

Pink Curved Banana Clip ($12):  This is exclusive to the May box and not available on the Eternally in Amber shop.  Not sure why this is described as a banana clip, it’s a curved barrette.  Anyway, I love the pink snakeskin (?) pattern on this.  This is large enough to hold a good amount of hair, and it felt very sturdy.  I used to use barrettes like these a lot but for some reason just stopped.  Not sure why, but I can tell you that this one will not sit on the sidelines.  It’s too pretty to not show off.

Silver & Gold Metallic Long Bobby Pins ($7 each):  These are another May box exclusive.  They are longer than standard bobby pins and have a strong grip.  I can’t wait to use these to hold my hair back when I wear a side part ponytail!  Plus, having both silver and gold means I can switch these up with almost any outfit.

Tortoise Shell Multi-Purpose Pocket Comb ($10):  Yet another exclusive item!  This combines a wide tooth comb, styling comb, and pick into one handy pocket-sized tool.  I like that this covers almost all of my comb needs.  However, I am hesitant to put it in my purse for fear that it might break (I keep a lot of stuff in my bag).  The comb has some flexibility, so it could potentially survive my bag.

Emergency Hair Accessory Kit (priceless):  LOL.  I love that this is listed as priceless.  For anyone who has ever had a ponytail holder pop or needed one and didn’t have it, you’ll agree on the value of this kit.  This comes with 2 bobby pins, 2 ponytail holders, and several clear elastic holders.  Never be caught without necessary hair accessories again!

Floral Halo Headband ($18):  On the Eternally in Amber site, this looks a bit more peach than cream.  Regardless, it’s still a very pretty and fun headband.  The pattern on the material is similar to that of the Pink Curved Banana Clip.  As it’s description states, “This is a must have for the summer. This floral halo rests around head with flower garland and golden crystal accents for an impossibly dreamy look to add flair to any hairstyle. The beautiful pattern of the material is as beautiful as the headband itself.”

I am enjoying the Eternally in Amber subscription.  Honestly, I don’t think to accessorize my hair.  I’m a wash and go type of girl.  BUT, receiving these stylish and practical hair accessories makes me take a couple of minutes to think about how I can style my hair to show off the pieces.  The design and craftsmanship are top-notch.  Compared to mass-market hair care brands, the pricing is on par or slightly higher, but it is worth it when you look at the attention to detail in the pieces.  FYI, Eternally in Amber has closed its Etsy shop and moved all products to the main site.

The deadline to subscribe for the July box is June 19th, so don’t miss out.  I didn’t see the May box available in the shop, but there were a few March boxes left. You can see my review of the March box here.
