No More Dirty Looks Quarterly Subscription Box #NDL11

No More Dirty Looks Quarterly Subscription Box Review #NDL11 Letter

Each Quarterly box comes with a letter from the curator(s) detailing the items they selected for that shipment. The theme of this box is keeping and looking cool in the summer heat.

No More Dirty Looks Quarterly Subscription Box Review #NDL11 SPF

Consonant The Perfect Sunscreen SPF 30 - Value $45

This sunscreen is tinted so it could work in the place of a BB cream. The brand is new to me, and so far I really like it. It has a matte finish which is great for summer. (I don't think this would work with all skin tones though).

No More Dirty Looks Quarterly Subscription Box Review #NDL11 Tatcha

Tatcha Blotting Papers - Value $12

I've receive these Tatcha blotting papers in subscription boxes before and I love them! They work wonderfully, and the little gold flakes in the papers make them feel extra special.

No More Dirty Looks Quarterly Subscription Box Review #NDL11 Fan

Japanese Paper Fan - Value $2?

(This was an item they included just for fun to go with the Tenugi towel).

No More Dirty Looks Quarterly Subscription Box Review #NDL11 Towel

Tenugi - Value $5?

They included this cotton tenugi as "your answer to those gross little face towels you can rent (or borrow) from the yoga studio." I can't relate to that problem, but I found this article with other uses!

Verdict: This box has a value of about $65. I'll use both the sunscreen and the blotting papers, so I got my money's worth (and discovered a new healthy beauty brand), but I wouldn't consider this a high-value box. I think its more about discovering new natural beauty brands.

What do you think of the latest box from No More Dirty Looks?

This box seems just okay, but so much better than the Back to School box my daughter received. They should be embarrassed over that one. Except for yours, I don’t think I’d ever risk a Quarterly Box again, & I know my daughter won’t.

Oh my God Kathy I completely agree – I work with college students so I bought it so see and it was probably the worst back to school box in history. Whoever curated that has no idea what a college student would want or need. I hope this explosion of curators isn’t at the cost of quality…..

Sneaky Burrito

There really have been too many new curators lately. Judging from some of the spoilers/box contents I’ve seen online, a lot of the new curators don’t have the first clue about what customers are looking for (and expect) for their money.

I think Liz’s box will be good, especially having seen the spoiler (I’m not on the list to get it, unfortunately). I think Bianca Jade is taking things seriously based on her interaction with readers here. The value is there with Nina Garcia’s, even though a lot of the items are not of interest to me.

But then I have heard some horror stories about some of the other boxes (one with a bag of confetti and a novelty plastic straw). It’s like there’s no guidance or supervision and the curators aren’t bothering to do their research.

I think the towel is pretty. I’m still on the fence about subscribing to this box. I received the blotting papers in a Sample Society mystery box sale and love them.

I actually like this box. The fabric actually reminds me of little Japanese eatery in Japan, hanging by the front entrance, when you enter the restaurants. I like the print enough, that we might frame it instead, and place it in the kitchen, we’ll see. For the main products, I will use it, so it’s not a waste for me.

Quarterly boxes are tricky because it’s not really about a box of products, rather it’s about the curator and why they choose it. To me, reading the letters is equally important. I would stick with them.

Liz Cadman

I agree about the letters. They bring so much more meaning the box! 🙂
