FYI, this Summer season FFF featured a LUXE CHOICE in Customization category 1! If you choose this item, it will cost an additional $10 and must be selected as your primary choice.

Customization 1

Subscribers will get to choose among the following:

I received the Draper James Woven Seagrass Tray!

Draper James Woven Seagrass Tray ($45) I like this simple tray, it can be used in so many different places and to hold all kinds of stuff, from beauty items in my bedroom to wrapped snacks in the kitchen, or maybe remote controls in the living room. So many uses! It measures 15″ x 10″ and is hand-woven.

Customization 2

Subscribers will get to choose among the following:

I received the Lilly Pulitzer Lounge Towel!

Lilly Pulitzer Lounge Towel ($47.95) We have already visited the neighborhood pool and I expect we will be there a lot over the summer so this is sure to get a ton of use. This towel is made of 100% polyester and has a vibrant floral print (I think I spotted a spotted cat and lizard in there too) in a summery color scheme of blues, pinks, and greens. It measures 40″ x 72″. It’s thin but feels absorbent and you can see my daughter holding it in the picture above.

Customization 3

Subscribers will get to choose among the following:

I received the TULA Skincare Protect + Glow – Daily Sunscreen Gel SPF 30!

TULA Skincare Protect + Glow Daily Sunscreen Gel SPF 30 ($36) This sunscreen has a trio of traditional sunscreen ingredients to absorb rays that can lead to burning, aging, and cancer. I have to say I was less impressed to see two citrus oils, orange and lemon, because they can do the opposite. The product smells like classic sunscreen and has capsules that break as you rub it into skin, plus it leaves the skin with an almost but not quite shimmery sheen. There’s no white cast but then this doesn’t have zinc and says “may contain titanium dioxide” and those two sun blocks usually cause the white streaks. This is a “daily” sort of product and isn’t waterproof so I would suggest using something else if you will be going swimming, visiting the beach or waterpark, or will be outside in the sun for more than incidental exposure (such as walking from the house to the car to a building).

Customization 4

Subscribers will get to choose among the following:

I received the Lasting Smiles Sea Salt and Citrus Soy Candle!

Lasting Smiles Sea Salt and Citrus Soy Candle ($45) Wow, that’s a pricey candle, but then 50% of all e-commerce sales from this brand are “donated to the cause of your choice”. The fragrance notes include grapefruit, jasmine, and driftwood and it’s made of soy wax with a burn time of up to 50 hours. The fragrance is beachy and warm, perfect for summer!

Customization 5

Annual Subscribers will get to choose among these items (and FFF will pick for everyone else):

I received the grace & stella If Eyes Could Smile Cream!

grace & stella If Eyes Could Smile Eye Cream ($35) Most eye creams seem to be white, clear, or even green but this one was kind of peachy tan! It has a good thickness and slip and while it felt moist just after I applied, it dried to where I couldn’t feel it anymore. It’s supposed to take care of those dark areas, puffiness, and fine lines and has ingredients like niacinamide, glycerin, peach kernel extract, and green tea extract. There’s even some zinc oxide, which may help protect that area from the sun (but also keep those sunglasses handy). There wasn’t any scent that I could tell and I could see myself using this twice a day.

Customization 6

Annual Subscribers will get to choose a 1-, 2-, or 3-item bundle (and FFF will pick for everyone else):

[bundles as shown above – retail prices for individual products in the bundles below!]

I received the Billion Dollar Brows Condition, Color & Control Bundle!

Billion Dollar Brows Condition, Color & Control Bundle ($63) Here is another item that seems pricey for what it is. It’s a brow care kit with a Brow Boost to prime and condition brows, a universal brow pencil to fill in sparse spots, and a clear gel to set brows in place for the day. I don’t normally mess much with my brows but lately I feel like they could do with a bit of oomph, although I think I either applied too much of this pencil or it’s just a tad too dark for my brows (I think it makes me look severe). I will try a lighter hand next time, but I did apply everything in order and I didn’t get crunchy brows from the setting gel.

FabFitFun is perfect for those who like to choose items for their boxes, so you can receive mostly skincare, or home items, or a fantastic mix of everything! I was really happy with the items I received. The catchall will look great wherever I use it, although I’m thinking of the living room for now. That’s where you will find my candle too, and it has a wonderful scent for summer. The colorful towel will be perfect for my neighborhood pool, I always take something to drape over the lounge chairs. Beauty items rounded out the rest of my box and my favorite of them all was the under-eye cream, I think this may be my new favorite, and it happens to be made in the USA. The value for my box combo was around $272!

Here is the mini magazine that came in the box and it has some of the products listed along with usage tips. I enjoyed seeing the recipes and look forward to trying a couple of them. There were exclusive offers and even a chance to win a trip!

The box also includes discount cards! One is from Bright Cellars and another is a discount on FabFitFun! I also received a sample of Liquid IV hydration drink mixes in a flavor that was new to me (and super tasty!) and a sheet of stickers.  

FabFitFun Box is a quarterly women’s subscription box that delivers 6-8 full size, premium products from the beauty, wellness, fashion, and fitness categories for $49.95 per quarter or $45 per box if you prepay for 4 boxes. You get to choose from a variety of items to customize your box, too!
