Marne's Favorite:
The Item: Give a Sh*t by Ashlee Piper
The Cost: Retail Value $17.00
From: Beauty Heroes Living Lighter Limited Editon Beauty Box
Why I love it: This is a wonderful guide to begin (or continue) learning how to live creating less waste and make less of a negative impact on the earth. I love how it's written and as someone who isn't an avid reader, it keeps my interest and has been teaching me so much!

Lacey's Favorite:
The Item: Watermelon Kids' Toothpaste by Quip
The Cost: $5 per refill
From: Quip Kids
Why I love it: While we have really been loving our actual Quip brush, the toothpaste is the star of the show for my 4-year-old. He loves watermelon, and I love that this toothpaste a) doesn't taste super sugary or artificial, and b) seems like it will last much longer than the 3 months indicated on the tube. I'm all about anything that makes our bedtime routine go more smoothly!
Abby's Favorite:
The Item: Dapper Dog Flower Crown Llamas Bandana
The Cost: $25
From: The Dapper Dog
Why I love it: Who doesn't love cute little llamas and cacti?? This is the cutest bandana Murray has ever worn, and he's received many compliments on it while on our walks. My boy's confidence soars when he wears this accessory, giving him an extra swag to his trot.

Jessica's Favorite:
The Item: Tizo AM Replenish SPF 40 Untinted
The Cost: $41
From: Spring 2019 Beauty Report Box
Why I love it: This is one of the best sunscreens I have tried! Along with providing broad spectrum SPF 40 protection thanks to Zinc Oxide, this also has ceramics and vitamins C and E. I am able to rub it in with no white cast, and it honestly feels more like a moisturizer rather and a regular sunscreen.

Ragan's Favorite:
The item: Unique Vintage 1940s Style Black and Pink Floral Short Sleeve Natalie Swing Dress
The cost: $88
From: Unique Vintage Dress of the Month
Why I love it: This is slightly stretchy so it fits my strangely-proportioned body wonderfully and without any discomfort (no zipper, just slip it on over your head). It is lightweight and probably the most comfortable dress I've ever received in a subscription box and probably even one of the most comfortable dresses I've ever owned.

Megan's Favorite:
The Item: St. George Terroir Gin
The Cost: $36.99
From: Robb Vices
Why I love it: I am a gin lover and this NorCal brand is really so herbal, evergreen, crisp, and wildly different than anything else in my collection.

The Item: The Dog Ness Monster Toy
The Cost: Estimated Value $12
From: Super Chewer
Why I love it: This dog toy is tough as nails and keeps my pup Del busy for soooo long! I like that it's a mix of rubbery and hard plastic so it keeps him guessing as he chews. And, it's funny 'n' cute to have around the house—just don't stub your toe on it!

Shatae's Favorite:
The Item: Custom Cedar Wood Pencil by Sprout World
The Cost: Estimated Retail Value $2.59
From: FaithBox
Why I love it: This pencil is 100% sustainable, non-toxic and non-GMO. When you're done writing with the pencil, you can plant it and a fresh plant will sprout. I love the cool concept and the inspiration scripture.

Nich's Favorite:

The Cost: $12.98
From: Mighty Fix
Why I love It: The laundry stain removal soap stick was by far my favorite from the bundle. The soap stick removed all those pesky stains that are hard to remove.

Brandi's Favorite:
The Item: Urban Expressions Aleda Wallet Clutch
The Cost: Retail Value $38
From: StitchFix
Why I love it: I requested a crossbody purse from my stylist and she delivered! This bag is very much my style with the rich brown color and gold hardware. It has been great to carry around when I want something light and it is even small enough that I can throw it in the diaper bag if I need my arms free to carry one of the kids! I feel like it goes with just about everything, too!

Becca's Favorite:
The item: Red Bolzano Crossbody Chain Purse
The Cost: $43.00 a month
From: Bolzano Mother's Day
Why I love it: It's red, it's a crossbody, and the "B" charm could also be for "Becca." It's like it was made just for me!!!!

Savannah's Favorite:
The Item: Ikkosha Animal Free Hakata Ramen
The Cost: $3.75
From: Umai Crate
Why I love it: Any time Umai Crate offers ramen with a tonkotsu-style broth, it's automatically my favorite of the month—especially if it's a dual-serving pack. These noodles hit the mark for both. They cooked up quickly, had the perfect amount of bite, and the broth touted a ton of savory garlic flavor. The addition of some frozen veggies and an egg made this ramen a most delicious meal. Better yet, because there were two servings, I get to enjoy it all over again. Score.

Carol's Favorite:
The Item: Just Chill Beauty Blender
The Cost: $19.00
From: Tribe Beauty Box
Why I love it: I have never splurged on a beauty blender and every time I walked into Ulta or Macy's, I longed for one of my own. I was pretty stoked to see one in the spoilers and even more excited that it was in turquoise since most beauty blenders I see are pink. This is definitely a big win for me because it is an item I have longed for for so long!
