I’ve been against subscription boxes since Day one. Mainly beauty subscription products as I found that the samples they gave you weren’t worth the subscription box price. Lately, I’ve been doing a lot more with my natural hair, and with my staple products slowly running out the need to find a replacement was urgent as I vowed that I would never order from my staple company ever again in my life. To aid in my search, I decided to go against everything I said and subscribe to the Curlkit box for the month of May.
Now I will begin to eat crow… I was pleasantly surprised when my box arrived yesterday. The box was so full that it the lid wouldn’t fit all the way on top. This was a good sign as I was worried that the box would be filled with more samples than it would full-size products. This box was a SheaMoisture Takeover and actually featured four full size products from the brand. I’ll admit at first I had mixed feelings about this. It was great that the products were full size, but I was hoping I’d be able to try out a brand I’d never used before, however, this was one line from SheaMoisture that I had not tried so and I often times don’t see it in the store so my disappointment quickly went away.
Pricing: The pricing on the products ranges from $7.99 to $11.99 in price. Altogether the products total around $48 and if you were to grab them during a SheaMoisture BOGO they’d come out to $36.97. The price of the box was only $20 I ended up saving almost $17! I mentioned in an earlier post that SheaMoisture also has a Pro line that retails for $19.99, though I doubt we’ll ever see those products in a curl box. You can read all about that line (here).
The Jamaican Black Castor Oil line promotes a healthy scalp, reduces breakage, and aids in healthy hair growth. Most people in the Natural Hair community love to use this product around their edges as it is said to help promote hair growth. Here are all the products we recieved in the box and their descriptions below. We also received 2 small samples of the SheaMoisture’s Superfruit 10-in-1 line as well.
