The Summer box includes:

Grace & Stella Hyaluronic Acid Serum

Fun fact: hyaluronic acid is actually a sugar naturally produced in our bodies, found on our skin, in our joints, and in our eyes! It attracts water, keeping our eyes moist, joints lubricated, and skin supple. As we age, the amount of hyaluronic acid our bodies naturally produce decreases alongside our collagen production. That's where Grace & Stella's miracle serum come in.

The Hyaluronic Acid Serum included in every Summer Box locks in moisture to leave your skin pumper, dewier, and more hydrated, reducing the appearance fine lines, wrinkles, and blemishes.

Super lightweight and perfect for all skin types, you can seamlessly incorporate this hydrating, vegan, and cruelty free dream serum into your skincare routine with just a few drops between cleansing and applying nutrient rich moisturizers and facial oils

AltCooking Hub Silicone Stretch Lids - Set of 6

Leftovers thanks to all that cooking you’ve been doing at home? We've got you covered — literally!

Maybe it's a stretch, but we're coming to you with back-to-back spoilers this week. *It's a holiday, after all.* In every core Summer Box, we're including a Set of 6 Silicone Stretch Lids from AltCooking Hub! 🥳

Whether this is a product that's been on your list for months (🙋‍♀️) or your ears are perking up hearing about it for the first time, keep reading to learn more about why we're so over the moon to be including it.

We're always on the hunt for better alternatives, especially to single-use plastics, and these ultra-stretchy, clingy, and convenient silicone lids are designed to replace the ziplock bags, plastic wraps, and aluminum foils that we find ourselves reaching for so often in the kitchen. They'll conform to any shape (round, oval, square, rectangular — you name it!) to create a secure, leakproof seal that you can put in the microwave, refrigerator, freezer, AND dishwasher!

AltCooking Hub is in the business of finding alt(ernatives) to everyday kitchen essentials, taking normal household items and innovating products that helps improve our quality of life while all preserving our environment.

And for those wondering: yes, they'll even fit the Set of 3 Bowls 😍

AND:

Prepare to be amazed when your Summer CAUSEBOX arrives, strangely heavier than usual, and includes a Set of 3 Nesting Bowls! "HOW DID THEY DO IT!" you might even hear yourself say aloud.

This set was custom made for CAUSEBOX in collaboration with Pepper + Vetiver and Erinrwolf.art with a two-tone, watercolor design and includes a large salad bowl, a medium cereal bowl (for all the cereal you've been eating for dinner), and a small dessert bowl. Use them for a big, colorful salad or an ice cream sundae, to display your jewelry or knick knacks, or, simply place them on a shelf to admire!

Pepper + Vetiver believes that home isn’t as much a place as it is a feeling — a feeling of belonging, centering, comfort, and love. Incorporating the right home style and decor can allow you to create a warm, welcoming and comforting environment with a positive influence on your mental and physical well being!

They also believe that this sense of belonging should extend beyond the walls of the house you live in, and support the Malala Fund in their effort to provide girls from all cultures and backgrounds with a sense of belonging, comfort, and opportunity in this world.

More than 130 million girls are out of school, and with the Summer Box, you support the Malala Fund and ensure that every girl has the opportunity to learn and lead 👏

AND:

Nanaka Juice Cleanse Citrus Bath Salts OR Doctor Rogers RESTORE® Healing Balm

Go on a juice cleanse — without the celery juice! Introducing a new end of the day ritual: grab a book, light a candle, add Juice Cleanse Citrus Bath Salts from @nanaka.co to a relaxing bath all to yourself, and soak it up as vibrant citrus oils polish and brighten the skin for a fresh-pressed juicy glow, while epsom salts remineralize and detoxify the body and calm the mind.

OR

Become the friend you wish you had — the one who always has good advice, a stick of gum, and @doctor.rogers RESTORE® Healing Balm on hand! This multitasking miracle worker (the Healing Balm, not you) is good for just about everything: chapped lips, flyaways, eyebrow styling, cuts and scrapes, eczema, dry nails, and so much more.

So, which adventure will you choose? Annual Members, start brainstorming — customization is right around the corner!

I ordered this box but have yet to receive it…anyone else?
Or have they all been shipped out?

Thanks!

I haven’t received mine either. I subscribed during the brief window on May (?) for the actual Summer box (not the other intro variations). Their website says all boxes shipped in July, with a few boxes shipped in early August. Mine is still “awaiting shipment.” Pretty disappointed.

Hey, see my comment 2 below yours. Never subscribing again. No shipping notification and no clear answers when I reach out to customer service.

Hi Amy, thanks I see now!
Well at least I’m not the only one :/
The thing is I bought the summer box and the summer welcome box
And guess what? I’ve already received the welcome box but not the regular box

I thought it was weird because they said they would ship the regular box first

I’m surprised we haven’t seen a review of the summer box.

First time subscriber here who signed up in May to get the regular Summer Box. No shipping notification and they seem to be just pushing back the expected ship date. At first it was “by end of June”, then “mid July”, then “end of July”. When I followed up again this week they said “some will ship beginning of August”. But after beginning of August rolls around, I’m sure they’ll extend it to mid August.. then end of August. They also seem really non transparent about the whole process. This will be my first and last box from them assuming I ever get the first one.

Same experience here. I purchased this box on 5/15 and haven’t received it. I have no Idea how to get a hold of them or where to find out what’s happening with this. I definitely don’t want to be charged for a fall box, and I’m concerned that I will be. I also ordered two others in mid June, the summer intro box number two, and have heard zilch on that as well. I understand that Covid slowed everything down, but they took my money almost three months ago. I’m not getting what I paid for… I don’t even know how to cancel. Yikes! Do not recommend based on the fact that they have been completely silent other than charging me for the three boxes total I originally ordered.

I am an annual subscriber and my summer box is stating still awaiting shipment. I also have subscribed for my 3 girls, seasonal not annual and I received all three of theirs over a month ago. So angry. Thinking of cancelling. Love their products but this is ridiculous.

I am an annual subscriber and still haven’t even gotten a notification that my box has shipped and my fabfitfun FALL box is opening for customization next week. At this rate the CAUSEBOX will be a full season behind and I won’t get it until September. I’m pretty disappointed in how long this box takes to ship – although I love the products, the shipping time is insane.

Just got my first ever Causebox today, the Summer 2020, and it is AMAZING! I knew the facial massager was coming, but I purposefully resisted looking @ spoilers. I LOVE the nesting bowls, they are my favorite colors and a lovely surprise. The diffuser is new to me, but I enjoy fragrance.
Let me just say each and every item is something that I will use and I will absolutely enjoy.

Jenny

Ugh!!! After Edition all this time my box was missing the Restore item when it finally arrived today! Love everything I actually received, but very disappointed that something is missing. Not a good start to this sub.

Nat

Did you receive the bath salts?
You’re supposed to get either that or the restore but not both. 😉

Reply ButtonReply

Jenny

Nope, neither. Apparently it was just missing. I contacted them and they did reply the sane day. Said they are sending the balm out right away. Very excited about that because I was really hoping to get it. A skin product I can actually use on my super allergic skin!

Amy

Got my box on Saturday. I’m happy i didn’t get earrings! I was planning to gift several items and mostly bought it for the PMD. The bowls and lids are a nice bonus and I’m not disappointed by the essential oils either 😉
I got the pink PMD, essential oils, and bath salts for the variation items (bergamot diffuser).

Reply ButtonReply

Izzie

I received my box yesterday with the teal PMD, the repair balm, and the sunscreen. These would have been my picks if I were annual: I got lucky this season! I would probably have picked the white tea diffuser over the grapefruit one (I’m probably the only person on this planet who’s not a fan of grapefruits), but I love bergamot, so I just hope the Combo works for my picky nose. I am restraining from opening the bottle because I have already 3 reed diffusers in use and I might move out soon (I want to save the diffuser for the new place).
As for the other items:
-I tried my PMD and it works (I was worried since some people appear to have received defective units). I ordered another box because I wanted to gift one to my sister. I wish causebox would ship internationally…
– the bowls are lovely. I received the medium one slightly chipped at the base, but I didn’t contact CS: I think I can live with that tiny imperfection lol
-the lids came with a strong chemical smell, but I soaked them in soaped water for a bit before washing and It disappeared. I tried one of them on a bowl and I’m very pleased with both adhesion/covering and the ease of use.
-all the skincare hasn’t been opened and I can’t comment on it, but it arrived perfectly intact.

Kim

I adored the bowls! Even though they are made in China … they are outstanding! Loved the restore balm… I’m so allergic to sooo many things that this was wonderful ! The same goes for the serum. I will be ordering more. Skin machine feels nice…. but not really sure the benefit. Lid holders will be used and the earrings are cute! I may add some beads to mine with embroidery thread.
Well done!

My box arrived today. I’m pleased with the items I got (seasonal so no choices). My only question is the diffuser. It is still sealed and does not seem to have leaked but the bottle only appears half full. Is that how it’s supposed to be?? I’m not familiar with this brand but any others I’ve bought have been more full.

madelin

mine was half full too! I think that is totally normal 🙂

Opposite here. REALLY wanted the sunscreen or at least earrings but of course got two more roll ons to add to my collection from sub boxes I never use and have no one to gift them to. I’m guessing most of us are pretty burned out on these type of rollers and would be delighted if sub boxes would stop sending them. They must be very cheap items for them to obtain.

Got the grapefruit diffuser I can’t use because I have cats (citrus is very bad for them, even breathing it in I learned recently), another all purpose balm to add to the dozens I already have when I really wanted the bath stuff because baths are pretty much my hobby. And not that it matters that much because it will definitely be gifted since it doesn’t play nice with my skin, but I got the only PMD color I didn’t care for—the navy. It just stinks that they won’t at least let you choose two items. Or even one. I just would not have paid 50 for the bowls and lids. I didn’t need the hyaluronic acid as I have more than enough serums right now. This is the second time I’ve rolled the dice with this box and both times I got the worst variations.

Of course to be fair I have an annual sub with FFF so even though I get to pick five things my Summer box which I was over the moon about got lost. I finally got the replacement they promised would be identical almost 3 months later and it’s not only wrong as far as my choices, they completely failed to include my extra choices and add-ons that added up to over an additional $200. Definitely not looking forward to battling it out with someone in a different country for who knows how long to get my money back. I’m sure by now the items I was so excited about are long out of stock. I think maybe the universe is trying to tell me to say goodbye to sub boxes.

Reply ButtonReply

MissT

I feel ya! Of course you got two variations that I would have wanted lol. I got the teal PMD (wanted the navy) and I got the earrings and wanted the roll ons. I also got the balm and wanted the bath salts. Disappointed in my box too but since I only like maybe 1 out of every 6 boxes that they offer I definitely don’t see a need to go annual. However, I might be more inclined to purchase a box if non-annuals got a couple of choices.

shakingmyhead

Was very excited to try the PMD, but it does not turn on for me. I had the battery that came with the device and it did not work, so I put in another battery. Still nothing. I looked on their website and tried putting the bottom on tighter, but still nothing. Very disappointed.

Reply ButtonReply

cj

hi! i had the same problem but when i peeled off the pink & white wrapping on the battery that it came with i was able to get it to work just in case you haven’t tried that (:

Annabelle

I find that there are a lot of complaints about the PMD not working. I’m wondering if they are buying up defective stock. Most of those Swell bottles from the spring welcome were defective as well, with blurred and defective art on the bottles. Perhaps they are getting a good deal on unsaleable products.

Totallybummed

Mine didn’t work either. I am very disappointed as well.

Summer box has me hooked! Received everything here in Toronto, Canada, perfectly, via FedEx, and this is my new sub box obsession.

Just got my Summer box yesterday and I am soooo happy!
Also my first “real box” after loving my intro box for Spring and it did not disappoint.
I love the blues and greens on the bowl set, very pretty. Already used them for chips, salsa, and guacamole last night. They are the perfect snack size and came with covers for what we didn’t finish. Excellent.
The earrings are both current and versatile. White tea and ginger scent is light and lovely. Can’t wait to try my Pmd, and already a fan of Grace and Stella.
Well done Causebox!
My only regret is not buying two! I appreciate the thoughtful curation. This box really said Summer to me. Can’t wait to see what the Fall box will be like.

Reply ButtonReply

Anne

I chose the sunscreen because it has just zinc oxide (I’m allergic to chemical sunscreens) and had no ingredients that bother my skin, at least when I checked the ingredient list on the company website back when the item was spoiled.

I got my box today, and swatched the sunscreen on my inner wrist. Within ten minutes I was intensely red and itchy. Okay, wash it off, then grab the box and double check ingredients. It’s a totally different formula! The second ingredient is now oat bran, which I’m allergic to.

Apparently the company is changing their formula to stop using palm oil. Okay, great, but that needs to be disclosed by Causebox! It’s frustrating enough that Causebox doesn’t give ingredient info when you customize, but this is so aggravating.

And I can’t even donate the sunscreen now, because it’s been opened! I guess I’ll see if a neighbor wants it who doesn’t mind that I’ve used a little bit, it’s a pump after all.

Just got my summer box in a fun colorful box. Already used my PMD Clean and I feel so much better after a stressful week too. I was skeptical but am so pleased. The bowls are the right size too.

Just received my Summer box n I am blown away. The bowls are so pretty and very substantial. I picked the diffuser, white tea n ginger, that has a very fresh fragrance and the roll on essential oils which will definitely help the moods, calm n energize.
I have the bowl covers so they’ll b gifted, picked the Restore balm, using it on my dog’s feet since the ointment is so soothing. PMD will go into the Blue Santa bag since I still use my Foreo.
This was my favorite summer box since I have all the towels, totes, sunnies, etc I could ever use. Great curation.

Received my annual subscription box today. It came in a regular cardboard box instead of the usual bright decorative box. Anyone else have this experience?

Yes, mine came in a cardboard box too. I think it was because I had the bento box from last season included as well. They had issues with getting yellow bento boxes for the spring box and as a result offered to sent the yellow with the summer box.

Just received my box today, and I love it! I’m seasonal and this is my first core box (received the Spring Welcome Box in May, which I also loved!). I seemed to have received all the same items other seasonals have posted about: white tea diffuser, pink PMD, bath salts, and roll-on essential oils. Even though I didn’t get to customize these, I’m very happy with them! The bowls, lids, and serum are also nice and I liked reading about the companies in the booklet.

I really appreciate the premise behind Causebox (being more sustainable, importance of giving back, and empowering marginalized voices). The curation of the box is also a great mix of useful items and pampering items. I can’t wait to see what’s in the Fall box!

I’m annual, mine shipped 6/21. Should have received today, but box is now in the all to familiar FED EX Smart Post ping pong pattern, arriving in Orlando, then sitting all day, then departing Orlando and 24 hours later arriving in Orlando again and sitting for a day.Have had one Causebox go from Orlando to Tampa (where it should be transfered to my post office for delivery) and back five times over six days before it finally got delivered. Box was decimated. Hope that doesn’t happen this time especially since this is one of Causebox’s
best boxes in a while.

I’m seasonal and mine is still awaiting shipment too.

Just received this box today. I received all of the items that I was hoping for, and the color (Pink facial brush) and scent (White Tea), and the choice item (essential oils). I am so happy. The bowls are beautiful and the silicone covers are so useful. I will use everything in this box. Way to go CAUSEBOX. Home run.

I’m also an annual, and I haven’t received shipping info either. It sounds like Pennie is not an annual since she got the variations she was “hoping for” (vs those she would have been able to choose otherwise).
This happened last season as well – people who made a seasonal purchase received their box before I did, which I (snobbily) am really, really, annoyed by.

Lauren

Stiiiiill “awaiting shipment” for both my market orders AND my annual box. Why don’t they start putting the packages together as soon as they receive the orders, and then just slap on the shipping labels according to their “mid to late June” timeline? They’ve had my order for over a month. It shouldn’t take this long to get shipping info.

Susan

I’m an annual member. Got shipment notification today. Delivery on the 2nd.

Annabelle

I am annual and I am always one of the last people on earth to receive my box.

Rachel

I’m annoyed by that too. It should be a perk of annual membership to get it first!

I guess the one off boxes are easier to get ready to ship though since they don’t have to worry about people getting the right items they chose but it seems backwards.

I ordered an intro box on May 8, 2020, then received it on June 11, was very pleased (it was really great!). Super fun intro box. I also made a Shop Order on May 23, with no movement, which I totally understand given Covid. I never mind waiting for FFF or any sub box if they get it right.

However, I upgraded to annual on May 31 in order to be able to customizate the regular summer box, was told I would get my customizations on the regular summer box via e-mail (which I have archived). Now I am being told by customer service that I will get the summer welcome box instead. Note I made the mistake of upgrading via e-mail and not by the dashboard. I’m asking for an annual refund now, because I don’t like the Summer Welcome box

Michelle

The more I look at the summer box the more excited I get! I’m excited to try the PMD. I did not select the Grace & Stella serum in my FabFitFun box, so I’m excited to try it. Hyaluronic Acid is always great to moisturize your face and for preventing wrinkles. I like the idea of using reusable lids. I can always use another set of bowls and they are blue which is my favorite color. I would love to get the earrings or spf in my box. If I get the roller ball, I will probably give it away. I already got a diffuser from my FabFitFun box so this will go into storage until I run out of my other diffuser liquid. I like reed diffusers so I’m glad to have a new fragrance to try. I would probably use the bath salts more than the balm. I have gotten that balm in a past FabFitFun box and it didn’t do much.

I just signed up for a yearly subscription a couple weeks ago. But I have a question about pausing/skipping. My first box will be the Summer welcome box. With the yearly subscription I’ll receive 3 other boxes: fall, winter and spring. Say I don’t like the fall box and skip the fall box, that means I’ll then receive the winter 2020, spring 2021 and summer 2021 boxes, right? So I’ll still get 4 boxes, but just skip one and get the next season’s box?

Also, if I do skip a season, will I still be charged for another year come June 2021? Thus a year after I signed up? Or will I be charged for a new year after I receive my final box of the 4 (so if I skip a box, then I guess it would be fall (September/October) 2021)?

And one last question, can you only skip a box once a year/subscription? Or can you skip multiple boxes – like say I don’t like fall or winter this year?

I’ve looked back at previous boxes, and I loved or at least liked pretty much all the items in the boxes from last year and this year, so I can’t imagine not liking a box at all – which is why I bit the bullet and just signed up for a whole year. But I just wanted to get some more clarification on this skip feature Causebox has, and what it means for yearly subscribers.
