Laurel & Reed Mystery Box Sale!

Bought the mini on Friday and got it today! It’s perfect and will use everything (though I might gift the floral bath but only because they would like it better than me). I calculated a total value of $171, though I honestly wouldn’t have cared if it was short because I’m excited for everything!
Lather body wash $22
Sarisha flower bath $22
Sarisha deep cleansing mask $35
Terrene Orchid Dew $35
LXMI Creme du nil $58

So I was a bit bored last night, so I went to laurel & reed website and saw that mini box was available, so I had to get it of course. They are sold out now again. I already have tracking for my mini. On a Saturday. Wow! Impressive!

Don’t know if this is the right place to put this, but Revolve has a natural beauty box on sale. https://www.revolve.com/mobile/revolve-beauty-x-tash-oakley-natural-beauty-box/dp/RBEA-WU11/?d=Womens&dvn=true&itrownum=2&itcurrpage=1&itview=01

I received my second mini box and added up the prices which comes to a $193 value . That is amazing! Tomorrow I will post what I received. Included the Ursa Major deodorant too.

I received my mini box earlier this week and it contained:

Cocovit hydro-mist
Sonage NMF Hyaluronic Serum
Provision Nourishing Body Oil (Manifest)
Ursa Major Deodorant (mint & eucalyptus)
Sarisha salt & floral bath with pouch

I calculated the RV at $164, but that’s pretty close to $169, and the values for a few items varied a teeny bit amongst retailers. I’m interested to try the Provison body oil to find out what makes this a $75 oil!!

I got my Total Haul box today!

Here’s what I got:

1. Cardea AuSet Activate Mood Mist (2oz) – $22.80
2. Cela Crème de la Crème Body Lotion (2.5oz) – $30
3. BKind Green Clay Konjac Sponge – $7.56
4. Dirty Lamb Turkish Coffee Mask – $44
5. Dulce Earth Matcha Scrub (4oz) – $24
6. Graydon Skincare Superfood Mask + Scrub (15 capsules) – $39
7. Lauren B Beauty Nail Polish in Pale Sand Paradise (lilac) – $18
8. Loli Prickley Pear Seed Oil (.24oz) – $28
9. Midnight Paloma Body Lotion (4oz) – $19
10. Provision Connection Lip Rescue (lip balm) (.5oz) – $55 (wow!)
11. Sahara Rose Luminous Clarifying Cleanser (3.4oz) – $48
12. Sarisha Salt & Floral Bath Soak (4oz) – $20
13. Sonage NMF Hyaluronic Serum (.5oz) – $36
14. Ursa Major Hoppin Fresh Deodorant (2.9oz) – $18
15(?). Wooden spoon and empty mini burlap bag (both in separate parts in box) – priceless (I kid! 😀 )

Total value: $409.36 (promised value: >$470) (prices were pulled from brands’ sites)

While I feel I may have been shorted one product (and I went through the shredded paper VERY thoroughly) & it’s below the promised value, I still feel like I got a really good value for the price paid, and unboxing it was a real treat. It looks like there was virtually no overlap to the mini box, and since the mini box looked pretty good to me I could totally see myself getting all of them (of course, we still have to see what’s in the Deluxe Box) if they come out again sometime next year (I’ll probably not indulge in any more if they come in stock this year due to other planned purchases like advent calendars). This actually felt a lot like unboxing an Indie Beauty Expo box, and those are usually my most fun boxes to unbox!

These are what I got in my Mini Box: (price taken from the brand’s websites at full price)
– Moonlit Power Down Powder 2-in-1 Mask from Nov 18 – $34
– Skin Owl Maqui Berry Beauty Whip from Jan 19 – $68
– Sarisha MARCHÉ AUX FLEURS SALT & FLORAL BATH from Mar 19 – $20 (come with muslin bag + wooden spoon, but somehow mine doesn’t have the wooden spoon)
– Ursa Major Hoppin’ Fresh Deodorant from Apr 19 – $18
– Inna Organic Myrrh Deep Moisturizing Facial Mask from Jun 19 – $8.99
– Ogee Gentle Glow Cleansing Clothes (10 cleansing clothes) from June 18 or older – estimated RV $6.33 (pack of 3 x 10 cleansing clothes was sold for $19 at Ogee website)

So my total RV is around $155.32 or $156 which is $13 less than the promised $169 RV.
Other than the RV issue, I’m not happy getting 3 masks in 1 box, though they’re different type of masks.
And I also didn’t get any serum/moisturizer at all which is one of the main reason I decided to try this mystery box.
Overall, considering the price, it’s actually not bad. I’m just not happy with what I got, especially after looking at what others are getting. I guess it’s just mystery box jealousy

Asking for everyone’s opinion:
Do you think it’s a ‘norm’ for a mystery box to have less than promised value?
I know sub boxes often have inflated RV, but since it’s a mystery box & there’s no listed value I was just wondering.

I ordered 2 of the mini mystery boxes and 1 item in my 1st box was broken, but Corinne with customer service was amazing! Honestly, I think she provided the most polite and quickest response of any company that I have dealt with. I received the first box on Wednesday afternoon and the replacement item today (Friday) along with the 2nd box. Here’s what I wound up with:
Box 1 $179.99 value
Glow Skincare Cold Facial Roller $24
Honey Nourishing Lapcos Daily Skin Mask $3.00
Provision Purify Deodorant Spray 50ml $35.00
Akar Skin Pure Lip Restoration 5ml $30.00
Pure Elements Youth Exfoliating Botanical Mask 2oz $19.99
Loli Purple Corn Grains The Grains Cleanse and Treatment 40gm/1.4oz $32.00
Sonage NMF Hyaluronic Serum 15ml $36.00

Box 2 $176.20 value
Vegan by Dr. Botanicals Champagne Radiance Cleansing Bar $14.50
Provision Purify Deodorant Spray 50ml $35.00
Lhamour Natural Mongolia Repairing Hyaluronic Acid Serum Nettle Lavender Extract 30ml $60
Cardea AuSet Calm Moods Mist 2oz/60ml $30CAD $22.71
Dulce Earth Matcha Scrub Anti-inflammatory and Hydrating 4oz. $24.00
Pure Elements Youth Exfoliating Botanical Mask 2oz $19.99

A couple of the items are repeats, but I am very impressed with the boxes and far more impressed with the amazing customer service. I can’t wait to try everything out! I highly recommend trying out the mystery boxes, especially if you can get a coupon code. All of the products appear to be a great quality.

I posted what I got some time ago, but it’s not showing yet. Maybe it will take some time. But anyways, I looked over past boxes, and the items I got were 2 items from November box, 1 item from December, 3 items from Jan, 1 item from Feb, 3 items from March and the entire Apr box plus a lip balm that I didn’t see in any boxes

Dear Laurel & Reed, I went to your site a few minutes ago and the mini was available, now when I went to check out it is out of stock. Would you have any more available?

My big haul arrives tomorrow. I initially wasn’t going to get it. Was glad when it was sold out, but then they released more of them, so I took it as a sign from universe

I’ve never tried this box before, but went all-in on the total haul version. I have yet to see it, but I’m hopeful it will arrive soon.

I got mini and love it!

For those who are not following the Laurel And Reed current review post, here is what I got in two of the mini boxes. They were identical. 🙁 Great value if you like all the items and the presentation was outstadning!

FYI- I tried the blue corn powder cleanser and it was beyond awesome! I hate powder masks and cleansers but figured why not give it a go since I have two . LOL I used 2 tsp which was the perfect amount with a splash of water and it turned into a purple goo and my skin has not been this soft in forever. 🙂

Here are the contents of the mini-

Revival Grapefruit & Mint Body Scrub Pouch – Good size
Ogee Seeds of Youth Serum- 20ml
Provision Purify Spray Deodorant-Full Size glass bottle @ 1.7oz VERY weird lol
Nebula Face oIl- Small glass vial
A thoughtful but cheesy little plastic bowl and spoon for masking
Selia & co Geranium and White tea skin tonic- full size @ 2 oz
Loli Purple Corn Grains powder cleanser- small glass jar

I have most of my haul listed in swaps, it should pop up when you mouse over my name.

Thanks and hope veryone loves their boxes! Please post if the larger boxes are similart please!! 🙂

Oh my!! I got my 2 boxes today and they are awesome, they just happen to be the same which is fine with me. I will swap some it !!!

I figured out that each box had a value of $183, with a promise of over $169. My 6 items were items from 3-4 past boxes. Really happy with this!!!

As of today they have the mini box available. The others are sold out.

What a fantastic deal! So sad I missed out. I don’t know how I didn’t see this post seeing as how I stalk this site many many times a day. 😄

Mini is available now.

The Total Haul box is now sold out too.

All the three size boxes are now sold out.

The mini box is sold out, too. That left the “haul” box. I’m giving it a try! I can gift anything I won’t use and I love their mission. If I like what I get, I’ll subscribe. Excited 😁

I caved and ordered the Total Haul. With discount and shipping only about $6 per item. I couldn’t resist! This is a box that I’ve never subscribed to so everything will be new to me!

New20 worked for me.

The 10FORLABOR code doesn’t work for me, only the MSA15 code works for me

I ordered the mini. Super excited!!
