The front of the content card is so pretty, I love the art.

This month’s box feature is For the Culture. I love that  there is a small description of the products as well as prices for most of the items. I would like to have all the prices listed just because it’s nice to not have to guess the price of my box and the stellar savings I get.

Akofa Designs Necklace ($55). This beautiful handmade African print necklace is so much more than just your new must-have spring accessory. Proceeds from each sale go to support women and girls of Togo and helps to pay for their vocational and college education. ONYXBOX co-founder Delali, has Togolese heritage and specifically wanted to share this beautiful hand-made piece with us!

The Butter Bar Melan-in Skin Nourishing Serum ($45.95). A full sized 4-in-1 serum that targets: anti-aging, acne, UV protection and skin evening. Perfect for daily use to help reduce hyper-pigmentation and lighten dark marks. The scent is a a little over powering but it has helped reduce my acne in just a few uses, I can deal with the medicinal scent if I have perfectly clear skin. Anyone know what age you stop getting acne? I’m still waiting!

Ogx Quenching Coconut Curls Hair Butter ($8). This is one of my favorite go to hair brands! Not only does it smell amazing but it helps give my curls the hydration they need in the summer sun. Its light enough for daily use and makes my curls look like they just stepped out of the salon.

Carmella Marie Honey and Hibiscus Deep Conditioner ($15/8oz). Holy cow, this is the best product I have ever used to untangle hair. I used just a pea sized dollop of this miracle cream on my daughter, two young nieces all with super fine hair but a ton of it. There were no tears or tangles and I am a believer in this product.

Mented Cosmetics Nude Lipstick ($16.50). I love this shade and I’m not really I nude fan… in my book bold is better. Fire Engine red is my go to lipstick color but this  lipstick is perfect. It goes on creamy and smooth and left my lips kissable.

We are Onyx Box keeps sending me the best in beauty items. The quality of items brought to my doorstep each month makes me ridiculously happy. I am so happy that this month featured a brightly colored box, there is nothing better than getting happy colored mail. We are Onyx Box continues to blow the $25 price tag out of the ballpark each month, with only two products this was triple the subscription price! I can’t even tell you how this box has helped me love my curly hair and embrace my skin tone all while challenging me to step outside my normal box.

    Hmmm, each monthly box is not identical?
    I recently joined making may’s box my first. I did receive a beautiful necklace & the facial serum, but my hair products are not the same.
    Not sure how I feel about that. I am excited to use it all.
