Eco Emi is definitely shaping up to be one of my favorite subscription boxes! It's like getting a present each month when I get a new Eco Emi box, I never know what I'm going to get! :) I also love that Eco Emi includes samples from shops on Etsy, I always like to discover and sample new organic and natural shops. I am very excited to share with you my Eco Emi December review!
Eco Emi definitely wins the cutest packaging award out of all my subscription boxes. Each month they have a theme and you can probably guess this month's theme... Christmas! I just want to note that inside the organza bag, each item was individually wrapped!

Eco Emi definitely wins the cutest packaging award out of all my subscription boxes. Each month they have a theme and you can probably guess this month's theme... Christmas! I just want to note that inside the organza bag, each item was individually wrapped!
The items I received were:
- Winter Wonderland Goat Milk Soap by Omniio
- Exfoliating Daily Cleansing Towelettes by Blum Naturals
- Natural Herbal Decongestant Salve by Sage Aromatherapy
- Seed Paper by Plantables and Paper
- Tree Cookie Cutter by the Party Fairy
- Candy Cane Hand Sanitizer by Fortune Cookie Soap
- Aah Bath Soak by Wash
- Whitelighter Eye Shadow by Brija Cosmetics
Winter Wonderland Goat Milk Soap by Omniio
The first thing I noticed about this soap was that it's a great size for a sample! Too often have I gotten sample soaps that would only last a few washes - this soap seems like it will last me an entire month. This soap is handmade and created with high quality oils and rich butters, making it gluten, paraben, and sulfate free. It smells like nutmeg and star anise, definitely a more "spicy" smelling soap, perfect for the holidays!
Exfoliating Daily Cleansing Towelettes by Blum Naturals
These towelettes are infused with natural and organic botanicals that help remove eye and face make up. They are saturated with an orange scent that not only smells great, but exfoliates the skin, leaving your face feeling fresh and clean. I love that this is orange-scented, I hate cleansers that are unscented or just smell like chemicals!
Natural Herbal Decongestant Salve by Sage Aromatherapy
I love that Eco Emi included this sample! I've always wanted to try something like this for one of my once-a-year death coughs. It smells very pleasant and very strong - which is a great thing for a decongestant. It contains eucalyptus, peppermint, ginger, wintergreen, thyme, cedarwood, tea tree beeswax, and carrier oil. Directions include rubbing a bit on your chest and throat daily to open your airways, or rubbing some on the soles of your feet and covering with socks to suppress a cough.
Seed Paper by Plantables and Paper
I had ZERO clue what this was until I read the information card. It's seed paper! Made using recycled paper and a blend of wildflower seeds, this seed paper allows you to write a new year's resolution or wish and plant it! It's such a unique idea, I have never heard of anything like this. I'm curious to see if it'll grow.
Tree Cookie Cutter by the Party Fairy
Sorry, no picture available! I made the mistake of opening my box at work and of course my co-workers went through my Eco Emi things, hahaha. My co-worker Jen, who recently got accepted to culinary school, immediately noticed the cookie cutter and I couldn't say no, provided that she promise to bake me tree cookies.
Candy Cane Hand Sanitizer by Fortune Cookie Soap
This hand sanitizer is awesome! It smells delicious and it's actually very moisturizing for a hand sanitizer. It also has a soothing and refreshing effect, which surprised me. Very impressed!
Aah Bath Soak by Wash
This smells absolutely amazing. It contains epsom salt, dead sea salt, eucalyptus, and spearmint essential oils. I also love that this is a larger sample, so instead of getting maybe one or two uses out of it, it'll last an entire week.
Whitelighter Eye Shadow by Brija Cosmetics
I definitely wouldn't use this as a full-on eyeshadow, but I think this will be perfect as an inner corner highlight! It has very high pigmentation and glides on silky smooth. I love that this is an organic product, because I don't like un-natural makeup products near my eyes for allergy reasons. When I saw it in the sample packaging I wasn't sure if I would like it, but when I swatched it I fell in love!
FAVORITES: Decongestant salve, hand sanitizer, bath salt, and whitelighter eye shadow!
