The Item: Natural Pacific Calendula Tincture Toner
The Cost: Retail Value $15.39 (found on sale for $13.86)
From: PinkSeoul Plus Box (Coupon: Save 10% off your first box with code MSA10!)
Why I love it: This light toner has really evened out and improved my skin's texture since I've started using it! Considering how dull my skin can begin to look once winter hits, this has been a nice discovery. I've been loving incorporating it into my nighttime and morning beauty routines for a fresher complexion.

Nich's Favorite:
The Item: Grace & Stella Dr. Pedicure Foot Exfoliating Mask
The Cost: $12.95
From: SinglesSwag (Coupon: Save 20% off your first box with code MSA20)
Why I Love It: This product works and I highly recommend purchasing. I forgot about the dead skin cells peeling until one day I went to take off my socks and I was astounded by what I saw on the bottom of my feet. There was a tremendous amount of dead skin cells peeling from the bottom of my feet, this process lasted about a week. Then the tops of my feet began the peeling process. During this time it’s recommended to soak your feet to soften and loosen the skin. My feet have never been this soft and I love it!

Christen's Favorite:
The Item: SixSew Three Balsam Fir Sachet
The Cost: $5
From: Nosejoy (Coupon: Use code MSA5 to save $5 off your first box!)
Why I love it: This flannel sachet is easily the product that surprised me the most this month. It seems simple—and, it is, really—but its scent is so amazingly good! It's stuffed purely with pine needles, and the aroma they send through the air when I open my underwear drawer is so blissfully natureful. I might not have bought myself a sachet, but now that I have this one, I can't see myself ever going without.

Rob's Favorite:
The Item: EcoVessel Insulated Water Bottle
The Cost: $26.95
From: Tennis Trunk (Coupon: Use code MSA05 to get free shipping on your first box!)
Why I love it: This water bottle is triple insulated and is meant to keep your drink cold for up to 36 hours – that’s crazy long! The teal color is very eye catching and just by the touch of the bottle, you can tell it’s of very high quality. I personally wish it was a little larger in size, but the 17 oz. bottle still works perfectly for a cold sip after a workout!

Taryn's Favorite:
The Item: Iron Side Reserve Pinot Noir, Monterey, CA 2016
The Cost: $24.99 (Club Price $21.24)
From: 90+ Cellars Wine Club (Coupon: Use code MYSUBCLUB to get a $10 gift certificate after you join!)
Why I love it: November was my first month receiving the 90+ Cellars Wine Club box. I am typically very picky about what wine I drink but fell in love with many wines from this month. One, in particular, stuck out to me in a big way, so much that I just had to go by more on my own for the upcoming Holiday season. That wine is the Iron Side Reserve Pinot Noir, Monterey, CA 2016. A lovely pinot noir that has a lovely spice at the end of each sip and a refreshing berry flavor that you can smell instantly when allowing this wine to breathe. The flavors were bold while still being refreshing and light. I am so happy that I found such a great bottle of wine that I can now purchase for myself and as gifts this season!

The Cost: $38.99 for the box, which contains 4 different cookie ingredients
From: Martha & Marley Spoon Holiday Cookie Box
Why I love it: So good, so much butter, so delicious. It's just not the holidays without cookies, right? These have kept me feeling festive even though we haven't had a chance to put up a tree yet, and I can't wait to make more to share with family.

Désirée's Favorite:
The Item: Whitelines Legal Graph Paper
The Cost: $4.80
From: SCRIBEdelivery (Coupon: Use code FACEBOOK15 to save 15% off!)
Why I love it: When I first saw this, I thought it was an ordinary notebook. What makes it special is an app that allows you to take a photo of what you write or draw on the notebook. The background is automatically removed, leaving the crisp black lines of your drawing. I've been using this for quick concept sketches for my job, and it works really well.

Anna Reilly's Favorite:
The Item: Jacinta Bootie in Midnight Blue, Size 8
The Cost: Retail Value $59.95, VIP Price $39.95 (currently on VIP sale for $19.98)
From: Shoedazzle (Coupon: Get your first pair for $10 + $4.95 shipping or Get two pairs for $39.95 + free shipping!, no coupon required, just use this link)
Why I love it: Well, basically, because they make me feel like David Bowie. But also because they're soft as can be, yet sturdy, and surprisingly comfortable given their thinner soles. I got them just in time for a road trip to Chicago. I stomped all around town in them with zero discomfort. Plus, I went to see one of my fave podcasts do a live show in a big theater and got compliments on them from like, TEN people!!! These boots deserve every compliment they get!

The Item: 8 Other Reasons 9 Lives Choker in Rose Gold
The Cost: $58
From: FabFitFun Winter Box (Coupon: Save $10 Off Your First Box with coupon code MSA10)
Why I love it: I love delicate jewelry, and I actually had been eyeing a similar style necklace at Bauble Bar, so this was a perfect find for me! (I've been wearing it a lot this month!) And I love that It has a 4-inch extender, so you can wear it as a necklace or a choker.
