AU Sugar Sugar Monthly Box of Sugar
5 overall rating
3 Ratings | 0 Reviews

AU Sugar Sugar is a bath and body product company that also offers a subscription box! Each month you can expect 3-4 small-batch, handcrafted items, many of which are new to the brand or exclusive to the box. 

FYI: The brand recently changed its name from Ahhh Sugar Sugar to AU Sugar Sugar. Moving forward, they'll be focusing on hiring those who are on the autism spectrum and have updated their name to reflect this initiative.

My Subscription Addiction paid for this box. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes.)

Au Sugar Sugar “It's My Party, and I'll Cry if I Want To” May 2020 Review

This box comes with a sheet that gives you more details about the brand. 

It also comes with an info sheet detailing the products included this month.

Since this box celebrates the birthday of the brand, we also got this small party favor.

 

That Is So Fetch Cake in a Jar - Listed Value $16.50 

This isn’t my first time trying the Cake in a Jar formula, but I’m really happy to see it again. It has layers of whipped soap (frosting) and sugar scrub (cake), and when applied it's like a more scrubby version of this brand's classic body frosting. The scent is a mix of crushed Madagascar vanilla, cotton candy, juicy pear, and sugared lemon, and it is a very sweet scent to my nose that has me craving a cupcake. 

Yasss Hunny Whipped Meringue Body Butter, 4 oz - Listed Value $9.50

Yasss Hunny is a fan-favorite scent- a peek through the AU Sugar Sugar Facebook page over the years shows a definite love for this scent of orange creamsicle, birthday cake, and marshmallow. I’m a big fan of the whipped meringue body butter formula- my legs love to be very dry, and this does a great job of nourishing my skin and leaving them soft. It can take a moment for this to fully sink in, but the long-lasting moisture it provides makes it worth it to me. 

 

Girl, Wash Your Face Coconut Milk Face Wash, 4.6 oz - Listed Value $12

This cleanser is made with organic and fair-trade coconut milk, aloe vera, witch hazel, and chamomile extract, and as a result, it makes for a gentle cleanse that doesn’t dry my skin out. I appreciate that this isn’t overly scented, and a little bit of this cleanser goes a long way. 

Party Time Hair Detangler, 4 oz - Listed Value $9

First and foremost, this smells just like fresh from the oven sugar cookies! That would make sense considering the scent notes are juicy bubblegum and warm baked sugar cookies. I am completely fine with my hair smelling like dessert, but after a few moments, the scent does fade so it’s not overpowering. It takes a lot to keep my curls tangle-free (read: a lot more than this spray can do on its own), but I liked the softness of my hair when I used this in addition to my regular leave-in conditioner. This didn’t add any extra weight to my hair, either. 

The Verdict: I really liked this month's box! The Cake in a Jar is a body product that I’m always happy to have more of, and the remaining three items were all useful and smelled great. By the listed values, this box adds up to $47, which is a little more than the cost of the box plus shipping. If you sign up hoping for an amazing deal, you probably won’t be happy, but if you’re looking for well-curated bath and body products in unique scents, with creative packaging, and a great mission, I think this is worth checking out.

To Wrap Up:

Can you get this box if you still sign up today? No, but sign up today for the June box!

Value Breakdown: This box costs $34.99 + $8.32 shipping ($43.31), which means each of the 4 items I received has an average cost of $10.83.

I am a staunch believer that pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza and when I’m not working as a family law attorney I enjoy hiking the Louisiana trails (alligator sightings are a favorite!) or relaxing with Duchess, my cat. I’m a sucker for anything labeled a mystery box and I’ve never met a bath bomb I didn’t like.
