[Lifestyle] Malaysia Subscription Box: Cubecrate May Box

Price: RM35/RM44 for Sabah/Sarawak
(Given a free in exchange for an honest review by cubecrate.com) 
Verdict: 10/10

Repurchase: NA


Cubecrate is a surprise subscription box that costs RM35 per month and includes a variety of locally sourced products ranging from beauty to decor and handmade items that you wouldn't think to try out on your own. For three months, the subscription is RM90. They also have a wine subscription if you're into fine wine. ^^


Disclaimer: I received this box in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own, as usual. ^^ You can also check out: 


May's Box
This month's box is Mother's Day themed and is filled with a ridiculous amount of things I'm excited about, not just beacuse there's food in there, but because there's such a nice varitey of items that can be put to good use!

Granola from Alys The Bakerland
As usual, food caught my eye first. Lol. The Sunshine Granola from Alys The Bakerland is as delicious as I remembered. It's found by Alyson, a food lover turned granola maker extraordinaire. I had this for lunch. It's delicious, healthy and deceivingly filling.

I really appreciate that it came with nutrition facts. There's 246 calories in this granola, which is really low. XD There's no added preservatives or flavoritsn and no refined sugar added. I really loved this. ^^

Chocolate Chip Cookies from Rackun Kiss
Next is the other food in the box! The assorted chocolate chip cookies from Rackun Kiss tastes like cookies from famous amos, which I absolutely adore. The bag it comes in is adorable and definitely going to be reused!

The cookies are made from butter, brown sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, eggs, vanilla essence, chocolate chips, coco powder, and walnut.

Shower Steamers By Love Is Gifts
This Shower Steamer is from LoveIs, which is also available in The Cubez Store, Sungei Wang Plaza. The bath and body products sold are locally handcrafted with ingredients from all over the world. Instructions said to crumble the bubble bar under running water, soak and pat dry. I love that the ingredients are all given, but since this is going nowhere near my body, I didn't really care much about the ingredients. Lol. 

I'm really enjoying the shower steamers. They smell like mint candy that I wish I could eat. Lol. It was used by being placed at the end of the shower, away from the stream of water. It releases an amazing minty scent that I love. Super calming. There's two steamers in the pack, which means I get to enjoy this longer. Yay~ ^^

Eye Bags Be Gone from Nuhaa Botanicals
The Eye Bags Be Gone oil from Nuhaa Botanicals was a pleasant surprise considering my love for all thing skincare related! It's created with all-natural ingredients that are non-toxic and human-tested. I'm uncertain of what essential oils are added in this, but it's really fragranced. I only needed a drop for both hands (since I'm patch testing) so a little bit goes a long way. 

I'm not sure if it's scented, but the smell is really, really heavy and I'm not a particularly big fan of how much it smelled. I could scent up the whole room by applying this on my hand. My sister says this smells like mosquito repellent. :(

Chocolat Face Scrub by Tinkerberry
Tinkerberry Spa's Chocolate Face Scrub was right up my alley! I love Skinfood's face scrubs and really looked forward to this. Unfortunately, I followed the instructions to apply this on dry face and it's way, waaayy too abrasive. My pimples were inflamed and unhappy. :( The formula is too thick to be used on dry skin. It didn't leave my skin smooth, like the skinfood scrubs I'm used to. 

I'm actualy pretty disappointed in this since I had high hopes. The chocolate smelled pretty good, but everything else about it was... nope. I'll probably repurpose this as a body/foot scrub, unfortunately.

Curated By Popculture 
Last but not least is a year-long Curated by oPpculture e-magazine subscription worth RM72, which is pretty cool! I signed up via their link but hasn't received a magazine yet, so I'm waiting still. :P
