Adore Box is a relatively new subscription box service. They send 4-7 beauty and lifestyle products every month along with an information card about the products. The box tends to be a random mix of things. The items may include: makeup, skin care, hair care, jewelry, edibles, accessories, and/or housewares. They can be sample size or FULL SIZE!
Cost: $15.00/month
Ships: To the US only
FIRST IMPRESSION:
Adore Box seems to be improving somewhat on the products they are including. This box came packaged in a basic box and it came very late. I believe they are trying to save on packaging costs in order to have better products. They are now also including fashion and lifestyle items. There were not as many products as last month, but I still couldn’t wait to dig in.
REVIEW OF ITEMS:
Infinity Scarf ($19.99)
I do not agree with the $19.99 price on this scarf. It doesn’t feel like a quality scarf. However, I will wear it and I do like the color.
Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel Nightly Brightening Pads
These are samples. I think this product sounds really interesting and I can’t wait to test them.
Sparta Soap
This is a sample size! I really don’t know why they couldn’t include the FULL SIZE since it is only $15. This was a disappointment. However, I am excited to try the soap and it looks so pretty.
The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf English Breakfast Tea
These are samples. I love tea and I am excited to try these. However, again I wish they would have just included the FULL SIZE.
Sexy Hair Pumpkin Shampoo & Conditioner
These are samples. I am excited to try these because I never tried pumpkin hair products. I wish they were larger samples too!
OVERALL IMPRESSION:
This month’s Adore Box was not my favorite. Totally random stuff and way too many samples. Adore Box had been improving every month, but this one was a fail. The scarf is nice, but not worth $20. I am disappointed. I hope their next bag is better or I will have to cancel. I really hope next month’s box is even better. What do you think of the items? Let me know in the comments below!
Sucks you’re disappointed. 🙁
Aw…They had been doing really good and now this one was just not haha. I am going to keep them for one more month and then I might drop them.
Hopefully their next box is good. Although other awesome boxes are on their way out. lol. Macy’s and Sephora! 😀
Exactly!!! I really hope they start opening them soon!!!
I’m excited to see what kind of products they will include. It will determine whether they’re worth it. To me at least.
The boxes I have seen so far look amazing!! I hope they keep it up!!
I’ll have to look into them. Especially Sephora. Lol.
Yeah it was way to many samples for me. That’s one reason why I’m scared to sign up for boxes because sometimes its not worth your money. They just throw stuff together and it makes the companies look bad. I do want to try out the Sexy Hair Pumpkin Shampoo & Conditioner. I never heard of that before.
I haven’t either!! I am excited about that one. I really love boxycharm (they really are worth it every month). Also, birchbox and Ipsy are great because they are only $10 so if one month is not so good…it is still worth it. Plus they both have good point systems where you get free full size products!
I think when I get everything in order I might just sign up for those boxes. I always see your review and you be having some great items for $10.
AWWW!! And ya I would definitely start with Ipsy or Birchbox…All depends on what you like better. If you like makeup, go with Ipsy. If you like hair and skincare products, go with Birchbox. I love getting the samples in those for only $10 because then I can find out if I really love a product before spending a large amount on the FULL SIZE. And Ipsy usually includes at least one FULL SIZE item hehe.
Okay! Thank you for the heads up. I’m more of a hair & skin care type of girl. So Birchbox will work out for me. Thanks
I agree that it was kind of a flop:( I also would not pay $20 for the scarf:p But pumpkin shampoo sounds interesting! Hope you can get enough use of them to know if they are worth repurchasing.
It really was haha. They were doing so good and then this box…I hope it was just a bad month haha. I think the pumpkin shampoo and conditioner sound great too. I hope it is haha!
Yes! Let’s hope next month is better:)
You’re much more forgiving. If one of my subscription boxes gave me this, I’d unsubscribe without a second thought. I quit Ipsy the month they gave fifteen Nyx samples, and haven’t looked back.
Haha that is funny. I am really thinking about it. I know they are trying to redo their boxes so I am giving them one more month. If it is not good, I am going to have to say bye haha.
