Saro De Rue x Gothamista Essence (full size, 3.38 oz. $68.00): This beautiful essence is a wonderful collaboration between Mimi Kim, a licensed sports nutritionist and aesthetician, and Renée Chow, a skincare enthusiast and influencer. This essence is a brightening and hydrating gem that offers skin barrier protection, skin immunity boosting and it plumps fine lines. It is silky smooth to the touch, and this ultra-luxe essence functions as a hydrating toner that is mindfully massaged into the skin, and leaves skin soft, smooth, supple and ready for the glorious WYLYS Double Rose Luminizer Revitalizing Oil Serum.

According to Saro De Rue,

Mimi Kim & Renée Chow worked together to craft their dream formula with enhanced black ginseng and Hanbang Medicinal Herbs to create the limited edition Essence. 

Essence is the skincare essential your skin's been waiting for.  With the benefits of a hydrating toner and serum in one, this enriched formula quickly absorbs, leaving skin feeling fresh, radiant, healthy. Essence is created for every skin type, every age, gender, skin type and skin condition. 

Essence fuses ancient Chinese Medicine practices and techniques, with modern science for the perfect blend of East meets West skincare. A holistic approach combined with innovative science to create a product that produces game-changing results, while being gentle on your skin and the planet. This essence is unlike any other. Crafted using the rarest, most potent ingredients, ancient Korean techniques, and hanbang herbs.

The foundation of our Essence is Black Ginseng, a treasured Korean medicinal herb 

used for centuries for its power to heal, regenerate and enliven. The intense technique used to create it plus its powerful properties make Black Ginseng one of the most celebrated ingredients in Korean skincare.

WYLYS Double Rose Luminizer Revitalizing Oil Serum (full size, 1.01 oz. $188.00): As a huge proponent of luxury face oils, I was elated to try this gorgeous mid-weight oil that sumptuously melts into the skin. Used after the Saro De Rue x Gothamista Essence, this ultra-luxe oil, with its stunning light herbal/floral aroma, leaves skin hydrated, soft, smooth and supple. It has an unparalleled silky texture, and it never leaves behind a greasy residue. It effectively softens the appearance of fine lines, leaves skin with a luminous glow, and it is a true joy to use. This is one of the most lovely face oils that I have tried in the last decade, and I simply cannot underscore the extent to which this is a delight to use, and that it delivers tangible and visible results.

According to WYLYS,

The Double Rose Luminizer is a vitamin-rich complex of pure rose and cold-pressed essential oils (rosehip, lavender, and geranium) that revitalizes depleted or dehydrated skin. Richly nourishing yet lightweight, this oil gently glides over the skin with just a few drops that easily absorb to provide an immediate, dewy glow. It reinforces a weakened outer layer, diminishing the appearance of fine lines and catalyzing the deeper collagen-renewal process.

Features:

• Great for: All Skin Types, especially Delicate, Sensitive or Reactive Skin.
• Skin Concerns: Fine Lines, Dryness, Dehydration, Lack of elasticity, Acne-prone.
• Scent: Herbaceous, delicate, floral.
• Texture: Luxurious oil that feels light and silky, not greasy.
• Makes Skin Look & Feel: Radiant, supple, and revitalized.

Directions: Cleanse and tone. Apply a small quantity (2-3 drops) of oil to fingertips, then apply the digito-pressure technique—holding fingers straight while gently exerting pressure across the face to massage and ease application of the oil.

Ingredients: Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil, Calendula Officinalis (Calendula) Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Rosa Rubiginosa (Rose Hip) Seed Oil*, Evening Primrose Oil*, Geranium Flower Oil, Rosa Damascena (Rose) Flower Oil*, Pimenta Acris (Bay) Leaf Oil, Salicornia Herbacea Extract, Lavandula (Lavender) Stoechas Extract, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Seed Extract, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil *organically grown.

Gothamista x Pink Moon Custom Jade Gua Sha ($40.00): Pink Moon, which was founded by Lin Chen, a Reiki Healer, collaborated with Renée Chow to create this gorgeous custom jade Gua Sha. This beautiful Gua Sha, when incorporated into your skincare routine, helps reduce inflammation of the face, relieves muscle tension, and it also helps to relieve the severity and frequency of headaches. It is such a luxurious way to help encourage lymphatic drainage, decrease puffiness and improve elasticity. Plus it feels amazing and gives me an incredible sense of wellbeing.

• Your new favorite self-love and wellbeing essential for pampered, healthy skin.
• It encourages lymphatic drainage, moves stagnant energy, and helps relieve tension/discomfort (pain, headaches, sinus pressure).

Overall Assessment: This is a box really worth getting before it sells out a second time, and the magical products are among the most incredible that I have used this year. This box is the perfect way to slow down, engage in self-care and pamper and nourish your skin. Boxwalla did an incredible job closing out 2023 with one of the most impressive beauty boxes imaginable. This is the perfect gift for yourself, or for the skincare loving people on your holiday list.
