January 2014 Sparaj Box

January 2014 Sparaj Box

Thaniya Organic Soy Wax Candle – I received a ‘Sakura’ scented candle, which I would be totally in the dark about if we didn’t sing a song with the same title in elementary school. ‘Sakura’ means ‘Cheery blossom’ and this candle smells amazing. I really like the container it is in as well.

Karmakamet Secret World Herbal Inhaler – This is supposed to help relieve cold and flu symptoms, cough, headache, migraines and allergies if you inhale it. It seems like you are just supposed to open it up and smell it, which I can totally handle. The smell reminds me of Vick Vap-o-rub.

Thann Oriental Essence Aromatherapy Salt Scrub – I am totally saving this for a time when I can enjoy it. IE, not a weekday morning when I am rushing through my shower!

Innisfree It’s Real Bija Mask – This is made with a blend of herb complex waters and other natural ingredients.

Karmakamet Secret World Aromatic Notebook – There is a little scented packet that goes in the back of this. Supposedly the scent will last 2-3 months. I think it is a really neat idea, and I can’t wait to have some notes worthy of recording in here!

Sparaj bag – I really like the bag this month. I’m going to use it to hold my makeup and/or for toiletries when we travel.

*I had a hard time finding links to these products this month. If you know of official websites, please let me know!

Sparaj is a monthly subscription box that delivers unique-to-Asia wellness products to your door each month. I recently won a 6 month subscription, and this month was the first box I received. I took a lot of photos since the box was new to me, and also because it was cute!

The box

I love the detail on the box.

First look - LOVE the Christmas stickers

The tissue paper was held in place with adorable Christmas stickers. I already reused this paper in a gift for a friend!

Real first look

Can’t really tell too much still, as there is a Sparaj bag on top!

The bag is one of those drawstring backpack ones. S really wanted it when I was trying to take these pictures, so I didn’t get a very good photo of it, but you get the idea.

Diffuser

Botanique Candyshop Diffuser

This is the cutest diffuser! The reeds are actually shaped like lollypops. I really like the smell, and I set this up in our bathroom right away!

Nature Republic from earth Foot Mask

The information card says that if you use this product, then in 4-7 days your foot calluses will begin to feel off and you’ll be left with soft and clean feet. Sounds great to me!

The Face Shop Face It Nail Pack

I would have never thought to even look for a product like this. The treatment for your nails and cuticles is applied by putting little sheets over each nail for 10-15 minutes. Now to find 10-15 minutes where I won’t need the use of my hands. I am excited to try this though. My hands get so dry in the wintertime, and I never really thought about my nails, but I bet they can use some attention too!

Soap

Soapbox soap

This soap is natural and handmade. It will be next in my rotation once I finish up my current bar of soap. It smells nice.

There is also an information card included that has instructions for using all of these products, which is wonderful as the actual instructions on the products are in languages I don’t know how to read. Sparaj really thought of everything!
