FabFitFun is a wildly popular quarterly beauty and lifestyle subscription. Every three months, subscribers can customize a box stuffed with six full-sized finds from recognizable brands featuring items perfect for each season.
This box was sent to us at no cost for review. (Check out our editorial guidelines to learn more about how we review boxes).
There are two membership options: either an annual subscriber or a seasonal subscriber. If you choose the annual option, you are charged $259.96 when you sign up and then billed automatically the following year. With this option, you can utilize perks like choosing your customizations and add-ons early, plus, you will receive your box earlier than seasonal subscribers. If you go the seasonal route, you will be charged $79.99 per box per season; this subscription also automatically renews each quarter.
First Impressions
I've always loved FFF's boxes. I have repurposed many of them from the past; it is always fun seeing how a brand's packaging changes over time. I've been a subscriber since 2016, so we have been through a lot together.
This season, I was sent a variety of products, ranging from home goods to accessories to beauty, and as I reminisce about all the choices in each category, I can confidently say that I would have been delighted with 90% of the options. I've been checking out the spoilers for weeks, so I was tickled to finally unbox my goods, and yay - let's get into it!

Mela Artisans Scalloped Edge Mango Wood Board - Retail Value $100
This serving board is adorable. It is made of hand-carved mango wood, measuring 16" x 10", which will definitely fit all of my favorite snacks and goodies comfortably. The scalloped edges add a whimsical flair to a timeless piece, and I'm eager to use this beauty for girl dinner when my son heads back to school in a few weeks.

8 Other Reasons Vegan Leather Slouchy Bucket Bag - Retail Value $149
Oh, I love a neutral bag! This is a spacious, one-compartment bag with a little slouch to it. It doesn't have any closures or pockets inside, but you can tighten the straps to secure your belongings. The fabric is a faux pebbled leather, and the interior is a faux suede; each synthetic fabric has a quality feel to it. I had a fun time switching over to this bag; I am using a few Baggu pouches to organize my belongings, and now I feel more organized and definitely more stylish.

The Camilla Necklace lit my desire for dainty gold jewelry all over again! I stopped buying jewelry for the last few years, because I don't seem to wear what I already have, but I have been wearing this beauty all week. The charm is so shiny, set in 14kt gold-plated sterling silver, and it looks cute with any outfit.

8 Other Reasons Jewelry Travel Bag - Retail Value $49.98
I've had jewelry organizers before, but nothing compares to this version, which can house literally any type of accessory. There are zipper compartments, snap buttons that keep your bracelets and necklaces from getting tangled, and ring bands. If you're extra or have a hard time choosing what to bring on vacay, this can hold up to 10 necklaces, 12 rings, and 23 pairs of earrings. I love that it has a snap closure, so you know all of your shiny things are secure.

- *Luxe Choice +$28
What I got:
Steve Madden Mystie Sunglasses - Retail Value $48
Mystie's frames are a shiny gold that almost steal the show; what actually takes you there are her fun green lenses that provide 100% UV protection (and look really cool while doing so). The egg-shaped lenses take me back to old school 90s frames, but I think the chunky gold metal sides give them a modern edge. This is a really fun and funky shape; I wore these out a few times this week, and I got a few compliments on them already.
Customization Seven: All members get a chance to customize from these options:
- 7A. Amika soulfood nourishing hair mask 250 ml ($36 value)
- 7B. Rare Beauty Find Comfort Hydrating Body Lotion ($28 value)
- 7C. Business & Pleasure The Apron in Lauren’s Navy Stripe ($79 value)
- 7D. The Nue Co. Magnesium Ease ($38 value)
- 7E/7F/7G/7H/7I/7J. Hourglass Voyeur Eyeshadow Stick in Aurora, Phoenix, Galaxy, Prism, Solstice, or Moon ($34 value)
I was thrilled to receive this hair mask; it is something I would definitely choose for myself because the scent of Amika's products transcends me into a blissful state. They describe their fragrance as a perfect blend of pink grapefruit, juicy apricot, and warm vanilla, but I just call it heavenly. I have always been a huge fan since the early days of Birchbox, and Amika's products just seem to get better and better. This hair mask makes my hair look shiny, feel soft, and smell gorgeous. What more could you ask for?
The Verdict
FabFitFun's fall box had an amazing range of products that I will actually use and thoroughly love + enjoy. The excitement I feel when it is time to curate my personal subscription is on par with the rush of going on a shopping spree, but I know that everything I choose or add on to my box is at a deep discount, which makes it even better. I love this box- so much bang for your buck, and the customization selections keep getting better and better. I cannot recommend checking it out enough. This season's curation has a retail value of $469.97, an insane value for its cost of $79.99 per quarter.
