November 2023 Treatbox Reveal and Review

Hello, thank you for joining me on my blog today! It’s time to unbox and review the November Treatbox! November seemed to roll around really quickly, with so much going on in the last week or two, the days really have flown by. I wanted to take my time with the products in the box this month and after a busy start to the month I am also bringing you this review much later than I planned to.

I really liked the theme this month which was all celestial with lots of moons. It was nice to have a range of items centred on self care and there was a lilac colour scheme throughout as well.

Let’s take a look at what was inside the November box.

What was inside?

November Calendar Print
Treatbox A5 Print “Slow down & everything you are chasing…”
Treatbox Original Mindful Check In Notepad
Purple Beaded Bracelet in Organza Bag
Bloom & Blossom Hands Up Age Defying Hand Cream 15ml
Sensory Retreats Divine Eyes self-heating eye mask – Lavender
Blendsmiths Beetroot & Ginger Blend – Vegan DF CF – Drinking Blend
bubble t Hydrogel Lip Mask – Vegan
Full Mellow Cosmetics – Light Blue Cloud Bath Bomb

My Honest Opinion

Overall this was a very good box with a nice theme and some items we had not seen before. The products I liked best were the Treatbox originals like the Mindful Check-In notepad, the quote card and the bracelet. The self care items are great, though I haven’t had time to use either of the masks yet (life is so busy at the moment!) but the hand cream is lovely.
The next time I have a free weekend I plan to look at the self care bits and those from the previous two treatboxes as well, and I will post on social media with how I got on.
This has not been my favourite box of the year by a long way, but it’s still been very nice.
I am looking forward to the December box now.

June 2023 Treatbox UK Reveal and Review

Posted on by

Hello June!

And what a lovely few weeks of sunshine we have had here in the United Kingdom. We have been very lucky lately, though I think we could do with some rain now.

It’s time to Review the Treatbox for June, and I must say I really enjoyed unboxing this one. If you’d like to see my video then click on any of the Social Media links at the end of my blog post to find it.

The theme this month was Self Care amidst the chaos of Summer Life, with lots of Tropical Paradise images of Palm Trees used throughout the Treatbox originals and icons of sunshine too.

Let’s take a look at all of the items contained in the June box, there was certainly a pink theme going on as well as the palm trees. The pink makes me think of flamingos!

What was inside the June 2023 Box?

June Calendar Print
Treatbox Original Keyring “You Got This”
Treatbox Original Notebook “have a nice day” blank
Treatbox Original Socks “Good Vibes” in Pink
treatme Coconut Lip Balm Handbag Size 10ml
Gardners Cookie Biscuit with a Tropical Palm design
Miss Patisserie Shower Steam Block with Aromatherapy Scents 120g
Treatbox Original Adult Colouring Pages x 2 A4 “good vibes” & “one day at a time”

This month we received the Calendar Print, 6 items and 2 A4 Colouring Pages.
I think we had a nice mixture of things in different categories.

What is my honest opinion of the contents in this box?

Overall I think this is an excellent box with a good theme that was balanced throughout. I probably sound like a broken record with always loving the socks and the positive vibes that the boxes are known for. But I really love how this month we did indeed get a bit of everything. Something to eat, something to wear, something to use, something to do, something for our self care and something to give us a boost.

When Treatbox has a mixture of items like what I’ve mentioned above, the box flows well and the theme can easily be established. By having a wide range of things which include enjoying, using and doing, there is something for everybody. This month I am happy because I can enjoy every single item within the box and I have no need to gift away anything.

My favourite items this month are… everything! There hasn’t been an item I didn’t like.
I think the lip balm is lovely, I’ve been using it while the sun has been out and it made my lips soft.
The socks have also been worn already when it was cold the other evening, so comfy!
I am planning to enjoy the cookie biscuit this coming weekend so I will pop that on my social media when I tuck into that one!

I have put the notepad into my spares collection for now because I started a new journal a few weeks ago so it’s not needed at present but it will get used eventually. I really like the shower block, it smells lovely and I only opened it a little bit, I feel like it will go a long way actually, and although it says break it in half, I think quarters or even smaller would suffice.

I have coloured in one of the two adult colouring sheets so far, and I enjoyed doing it. And although I didn’t need another keyring in my life I do love this quote, and my son has sort of claimed it now anyway and has hung it in his bedroom currently.

Without a doubt one of the best boxes of the year so far, I look forward to trying out the remainder of the products as the weeks of June progress. Don’t forget to follow me on social media as I post product updates on there all the time too when I wear and use or finish an item.
What item is your favourite this month?

Time for some more of my photography!

If you are looking for the ideal Stationery Gift this Season then why not check out the Gift Company Journal Sets

Hello and Welcome to another of my Product Review Collaborations! This month I am ecstatic to be working with Gift Company again, as I review their wonderful Journal Stationery Gift Sets.

I am thrilled to be bringing you this collaboration with Gift Company this November, I have been asked to review some of their incredible value Gift Sets! Each set of products has been sent to me in order for me to complete this honest testing and review. I wanted something versatile and unisex and this was what we decided upon.

On the Gift Company website there are four sets to choose from, they include a Robin, Cat, pair of Giraffes and a Bee. I chose the three sets that contained exactly the same items so that I could compare their design and quality. Overall I have been very impressed with them, so let’s take a look at what’s inside each of the decorative display boxes for this stationery set.

Here are some of my photographs to show the quality of the stationery up close.

The gift set is very well presented inside the box which is also decorated front and back with the design that you chose.

Each of the Journal Gift Sets contains:
1 x Journal (with blank date headers to fill in as you please)
A Selection of Cards and Envelopes both personalised with set picture
1 x Shopping List Notepad with a Magnetic Back
1 x Notebook on a Ring Bound Coil
1 x Decorative Bookmark with black tassel
1 x Black Ballpoint Pen

My Honest Opinion

Overall these Gift Sets are of extremely high quality, the way the set is designed means that you receive the decorative box as well as the six individual items inside it. A set has every product made to a high standard, be it the manufacturing and final finish of the product, as well as the paper within them, it’s a decent thickness of all the paper products. The image that you decide upon for your set is bright throughout the products and the font on the quotes is easy to read and is clearly defined.

You could choose to gift the set as is, or you could split the set up and divide it into smaller gifts, you can give the journal and pen to one person for example. While offering the cards and envelopes to another loved one. Perhaps you have a family member who always does the food shopping, this list would be perfect for them. Is there an avid reader in your family as well, because this decorative bookmark would be a great addition in their Christmas box.

Considering you get six high quality items and a decorative box for only £10, I think it is definitely great value for your money. If you are on a budget this year, I would consider purchasing two gift sets and dividing the items between four or more different people. You could even buy a gift set and a pack of pens and give every item to a loved one, along with a pen.

You wouldn’t have to gift this set for Christmas though, it’s a perfectly acceptable gift for a variety of occasions such as a Birthday or an Anniversary too. Do you know someone who is going off to University? Or somebody who recently started a new job? A gift like this might be both useful and very well received by people who will need to use stationery items such as these.

I personally love being organised and using stationery definitely helps me to do just that. If you know of someone in your life that does the same thing, then this gift would be perfect for them. And finally as a parent, you can never have enough notebooks and a journal to keep your year ahead organised.
