The Boxwalla October Beauty Box Wild Honey ($49.95. Retail value $122.00), which features three beautiful products from H is for Love.

According to Boxwalla,

This October, we feature a brand that is incredibly effective, uniquely edgy & soulful: H is for Love. Created by gifted skin chef Bee Ham, the products from this line are filled with the purest plant ingredients: herbal infusions, raw, unrefined plant oils, CO2 extracts & more!

As the cooler days, roll in, your skin screams for velvety textures, emollience, & ingredients that help reduce any skincare damage that summer may have wreaked. And that's where the October Beauty Box swoops in with a beautiful collection of three products that heal, rebuild & cocoon your skin & body.

Each October Beauty Box contains three products from H is for Love:

H is for Love Rapha Harmonizing Oil Cleanser (custom size, $22.00 value for 1 oz): This lovely cleansing oil is an ultra gentle and healing infusion of anti-inflammatory ingredients such as Calendula and Chamomile that soothe and calm irritated, sensitive and inflamed skin. This non-emulsifying formula effectively cleans the skin without ever stripping it, and in fact it offers the skin vital moisture without leaving behind a greasy residue. Simply massage a small amount into damp skin and then remove it with a warm, soft wash cloth. The biggest surprise is the extent to which this beautiful oil softens skin. The warm aroma of Chamomile is intoxicating, but without being in the least bit overpowering or cloying.

According to H is for Love,

Cleansing is the first morning self-care ritual and the last to be done before sleep. Because of this, the task of creating cellular harmony as a basis upon which to build is vital. RAPHA is a cellular-level communicator, speaking the language of peace and harmony to skin. It’s oil cleansing at its finest.

A combination of oils and essential oils which, when blended in perfect measure, prepare you for waking and for slumbering.  RAPHA’s foundation infuses nutrient-rich oils with herbs complimented by antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and highly soothing essential oils, giving skin a pathway to health and framework for vitality.

As a nighttime cleanser, the scent of RAPHA is a delight, calming nerves and invoking a sense of peace. For morning use it is spirited and uplifting.

RAPHA contains a CO2 extraction of German Chamomile which is known for its high levels of matricin. Highly anti-inflammatory, matricin is a powerful agent of healing.

*We source herbs and flowers from small farms whose crops are beautiful and fresh. Because of this, RAPHA’s color may vary from batch to batch.

Directions: (a.m.) Massage a small amount of cleanser into damp skin. With a warm, damp cloth, steam face for a minimum of 10 seconds. Gently wipe away remaining oil. (p.m.) Massage 4-6 pumps of cleanser into dry skin. Allow the nutrient-rich herbal oils to fully dissolve makeup and debris. Steam and remove as above. Follow with a gentle exfoliant when necessary. May also be massaged into dry skin and removed with a dry cloth if cleansing with water is not the preferred method.

Ingredients: Olive Oil*, Hemp Seed Oil*, Pumpkin Seed Oil*, Castor Bean Oil*, Mixed Tocopherols (Non-GMO Vitamin E), Chamomile*, Calendula*, Essential Oils Of: Roman Chamomile*, Lemon*, German Chamomile CO2*, Frankincense*, Rosemary Antioxidant CO2*, Turmeric CO2*, Lavender* *Denotes Certified organic ingredient.

H is for Love Propolis Regenerative Mask (.85 oz $48.00 for 4 oz. jar): This gorgeous antioxidant-rich clay mask effectively removes impurities, stimulates cell renewal, and boosts collagen production. 20 minutes is all you need to have refreshed, clean, silky-smooth skin. You remove the mask just before it fully dries, and it is non-irritating and non-drying on the skin. I have experienced no issues using this with my sometimes finicky skin, and it has a wonderful aroma from which one detects a bit of clove, vanilla bean and cinnamon.

According to H is for Love,

An absolute miracle; full of rare and precious ingredients that stimulate cell renewal and rid the skin of impurities, leaving your face smooth and radiant.

Camu camu is one of nature’s highest sources of vitamin C, vital for the production of collagen.  This weekly indulgence contains rare and skin-brightening white turmeric, spices that encourage blood flow to the surface of the skin, a massive dose of minerals, and the antioxidant-rich superfoods raw cacao and vanilla bean.

Some experience a tingling sensation as Propolis dries. Skin is brought to new life as the mask purifies and deposits its nutrients into skin, though its intensity can vary day to day.

Directions: Take two teaspoons dry powder and add water (or whole milk organic yogurt, or raw honey*) drop by drop until a mud-like consistency is reached. Apply to face. Once mask has almost dried, (about 20 minutes) reconstitute with a warm, damp washcloth and gently wipe away.
PROPOLIS can be used as an exfoliating cleanser, which is a wonderful option when time does not allow for the lengthier mask experience. Simply add a small amount of dry powder to your hand with an equal amount of water, with a gentle touch massage onto face taking your time to stimulate blood flow and release dead skin cells. Leave on for one minute and then rinse away as you would a normal cleanser. *The use of yogurt or honey in dry winter months adds much needed moisture. Can be used as a spot treatment for troublesome areas.

Ingredients: French Green Clay, Kaolin Clay, Camu Camu*, Poolan Kilangu (White Turmeric), Raw Cacao*, Vanilla Bean*, Sweet Cinnamon*, Clove*, Red Alaea Salt*, Orange Peel*, Essential oil of: Frankincense. *Denotes certified organic ingredient.

H is for Love Kinu Glowing Body Balm (3.4 oz): This is a lovely, lightweight and fast absorbing ultra-emollient body balm that is incredibly moisturizing. It seals in moisture, leaves behind no greasy residue and leaves skin baby soft, silky smooth, very supple and radiant. It has a deep, warm and creamy earthy aroma that sits close to the skin, and it isn't in the least bit overpowering.

According to Boxwalla,

A decadent, whipped body balm made with a thoughtful mix of rich, emollient and fast absorbing oils like olive, jojoba, coconut and kalahari melon seed, that lend a balanced fatty acid profile & uber skin softening properties. It also contains rosehip CO2, a carrier oil high in carotenoids, Vitamins A and E, as well as all three essential fatty acids. A bit of beeswax seals in all the moisture. A hint of shimmer provides your own secret sunshine. Comforting and evocative, this nutrient-dense indulgence is creamy, dreamy perfection for fall and winter skin.

Directions: With long strokes, using medium pressure, massage balm into damp skin. This ensures proper absorption and stimulates blood flow to the surface of the skin. Kind will leave your skin as soft as silk, as the implies, with just a touch of radiant glow from natural micas.

Ingredients: Jojoba Oil, Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Beeswax, Kalahari Melon Seed Oil, Mixed Tocopherols (Non-GMO Vitamin E), Rosehip Seed C02, Essential Oils of: Grapefruit, Cedarwood, Vanilla C02, Bergamot, Rosemary Antioxidant C02, Clove, Natural Mica.

Overall Assessment: This box offers a perfect mixture of pure joy for the skin! This selection of green beauty picks perfectly pamper the skin, and are exquisite choices for the cooler months of the year. As is true of all Boxwalla Beauty Boxes, this is a tremendous value and definitely worth purchasing. A+
