March Citrus Lane Box Review

Several months back I read a baby magazine that mentioned Citrus Lane as a subscription service that also offered baby shower boxes.  I was immediately intrigued - one of my favorite daily activities is to get the mail...any mail...even the bills...I love actually walking down my long driveway to the mailbox to see what surprises may be there.  I chose to do a subscription to Citrus Lane and Bluum.  I am still waiting on my March Bluum box so check back soon for that review!  Citrus Lane offers care packages for both parent & baby.  Each month is creatively themed - March was "Dining Out".  April is going to be "Bath and Bedtime".  You can subscribe monthly for $25 or do a 3, 6 or annual subscription. 



The box is a good size, but will fit in most standard mailboxes. 

This months box included:
1. Natursutten Butterfly Orthodontic natural pacifier $7.95
2.  Itzy Ritzy Bib, Burp and Bath Cloth $12.99
3. Weleda Calendula Baby Cream $12.00  (good for baby acne and cradle cap - both of which my boys have!)
4. ZoLi Munch Teether $5.00
5. Weleda Almond Soothing Facial Lotion, Soothing Cleansing Lotion
(full size Facial 1oz $24.00 and Cleansing 2.5oz $19.00)

Also included was a $10 off a $30 AbesMarket.com purchase



 The boys with their first Citurs Lane box....



 The box of course only included one of each item...so Brayden got to try out the Natursutten pacifier first....he absolutely LOVED it!  Neither of my boys had paci's for the first 6 weeks as they are exclusively breastfed and I didn't want to have any nipple confusion.  I will however say this paci is very realistic and nipple like!  I immediately got on the computer and ordered a second one for Blake.  The flier included in the monthly box even included a discount code for the products. 

Citrus Lane also offers a Pampered Pregnancy Box and Shower Gift Box - I recently sent the shower box to a friend - waiting to see what she thought of it :)  Overall I really liked all the products in the March box and I am looking forward to the April box.
