Bump Boxes February 2020 Review
1 of 2
Each box comes with an info card detailing the items included and expressing the overall theme of the current month's box. This month, it's all about being pampered.
BumpLife Mama's Agenda Notepad - Listed Value $6.99
"Mama's Agenda" - cute! I can always use another notepad.

Face It Cloth In A Box Makeup Remover Cloth - Retail Value $9.99
What a cute face cloth! This is made of material that, when wet, can remove your makeup - even waterproof mascara! Don't ask me how; I'm pretty sure it's magic. But anyway, the design is nice, being heart-shaped with little pockets for your hands.

Promise Hydrating Facial Cleanser, 4.8 - Retail Value $16, Listed Value $19.99
The listed value of this item is slightly inflated in comparison to what I found on Promise's website. This cleanser was created specifically with pregnancy in mind, so it's very clean and gentle. I love the ingredients like green tea, coconut oil, jojoba oil, aloe vera, and vitamin E. It smells fresh and citrus-y and left my (dry) skin feeling clean and pampered.

Glow Organics Balance Foot Soak, 8 oz - Retail Value $15.99
This foot soak smells amazing! And the ingredients are really clean: Epsom Salt Foot Soak, Himalayan Pink Salt, Dead Sea Salt, Organic Calendula Petals, Organic Lavender Buds, Organic White Grapefruit Essential Oil, Organic Lavender Essential Oil. I really enjoyed using this. It would work great as just a general bath soak, too, not just for feet! This was definitely relaxing, and I paired it with a face mask for a fantastic, totally-just-for-me break.

Stroller Blanket from Ah Goo Baby, Earth Pattern - Listed Value $24.95 (same product, different pattern found here for $16.15)
I couldn't find this kind of blanket on Ah Goo Baby's website, so I linked to an Amazon listing from Ah Goo Baby, which prices it at $16.15. The info card from Bump Boxes prices it at $24.95, though. I would believe this blanket selling at that price, but since the only place I can actually find this for sale lists it at the lower price, it's the one I'm going with.
I think this blanket is a really nice, practical inclusion for this box! The fabric is water-repellent and the underside is a very soft minky material. It comes in a drawstring bag to toss into the stroller or car, and measures 41 x 30 inches. It would be great for tummy time at play dates or outside.
Verdict: This month's Bump Boxes theme was being pampered, and I think they did this well! The blanket and notepad are nice practical items, and the face cloth, bath soak, and cleanser all felt like a luxurious treat. My favorite item is the bath soak! This box has a listed value of $77.91, according to the info card, but based on the retail values I could find items for items available for purchase from the brands themselves, this box has a value closer to $69.11. I've noticed the listed values tend to be inflated compared to the retail values offered directly from the brand. I've also felt on a few occasions that the value of proprietary or exclusive items is listed higher than what I personally feel it should be, though if it's an exclusive item to Bump Boxes I suppose they have that right to price it how they like. The value inflation is a source of concern for me, but I did feel that the items were useful and matched the theme.
To Wrap Up:
Can you still get this box if you sign up today? Your box may look different than mine depending on how far along you are in your pregnancy journey.
