Summer is in full force here in Kansas and our AUGUST VIP BOX is filled with colorful gifts, tart and tasty gourmet items and we have included items that should surprise and delight anyone on your gift giving list (which of course, includes YOU!)
Our yellow and black theme remind me of the kitchen of one of our family friends from my childhood. Their California kitchen always looked so fresh and inviting and I think you will find this box to be filled with sunny treasures inside!
Let’s take a peek…
Everything in the AUGUST VIP BOX is bright and sunshiny and should bring JOY to anyone who opens the box! We have included lots of fun things for you to discover. We start with our black and white buffalo plaid tissue which keeps everything wrapped up and in perfect order. The bright yellow items really pop against the black. Now let’s see what’s inside…

Smartypits Aluminum-Free Deodorant
When Smartypits founder Stacia Guzzo’s mother discovered she had breast cancer, it was through noticing a lump directly underneath her armpit.
She had no family history of breast cancer or noted genetic predisposition, so Stacia began to do some research to learn more about breast cancer and its risk factors. That was the first time she learned about studies which linked the aluminum in antiperspirants to breast cancer (as well as Alzheimer’s Disease).
At the time, Stacia tried to go aluminum-free herself, but it was a struggle. A dedicated clinical strength-antiperspirant user, Stacia needed something that controlled odor all day, had a smoother application, smelled great, and felt convenient to use.
She didn’t find anything on the market that hit all those marks…
…so a few years later after studying skin care formulation, she created one herself. It would take a few years of trial and error to perfect, but SmartyPits was originally born on a tiny kitchen stovetop in 2014.
Now available in over 900 locations nationwide, SmartyPits is proudly aluminum free, paraben free, phthalate free, and propylene glycol free; in addition, SmartyPits donates $0.30 from every large stick to breast cancer research and free deodorant to oncology centers, survivor support events and non-profit groups.
We’re also thankful to share that Stacia’s mom is now a 13 year cancer warrior and survivor. We hope you’ll join thousands of other women around the country and give the Smartypits Aluminum-Free Deodorant a try!
So, what else will you find as you unwrap the layers in this VIP BOX?
We’ve got a delicious Lemon Cheeseball or Dip Mix for you this time. Back in January at the Atlanta Market, we stumbled across this new flavor from one of our favorite gourmet companies and actually built our August Box around this item! A tart and refreshing burst of lemon paired with fruit, cookies or your imagination. Yum!!!
Also included in this Box is a package of Mississippi Cheese Straw Factory’s #1 selling sweet… Original Lemon Straws…a tasty treat! These “straws” (cookies) begin with a refreshing burst of lemon, then blend it with rich shortbread made with fresh creamery butter, and voila: a straw of extraordinary flavor, twirled in powdered sugar for a sensational finish. Tart, rich, sweet- spectacular in its perfection. An indulgence? To be sure. The ultimate indulgence. And isn’t that what you deserve?
Another set of fun items are our Krumbs brand of handy kitchen tools. We chose a top selling duo in this bright and fun yellow/black combo. First a set of three Krumbs Mini Hands Tongs, which are perfect for summer serving. Use for olives, lemon slices, nuts or ??? They are whimsical, fun and a great conversation starter!
Summer entertaining brings on more than a few piles of dishes that must be done, so we’ve included a fun pair of Krumbs Dotted Yellow and Black Dish Gloves… which might just help your attitude while you’re doing them!
Other goodies…
Next you’ll discover a refreshing Honey Lemon Face Masque which is perfect for taking care of summer skin! Take time to just relax and let the fragrant honey lemon potion work it’s magic!
We have included a pack of our Instant Lip Stick Remover Pads in a pleasant lemon fragrance. It took every bit of lipstick off in one swipe and leaves your lips feeling refreshed!
If you’re traveling this summer, you’ll appreciate the well organized Jewelry Roll with pockets for necklaces, earrings and even a special place to keep your rings as you travel. I think this would be handy to use at home as well as on a trip! Keep your favorite items handy in this roll-up. (Colors will vary on this item).
Your VIP BOX contains TWO Car Cup Coasters featuring a cool and refreshing lemon iced tea design. These absorb moisture from your cups and keep your car cup holders nice and clean! (not shown).
Lastly, we have a nice thick set of three notepads that keep your desk looking fresh and organized. I LOVE fun paper and really could create an entirely separate Subscription Box for paper lovers like myself! This one is one of my favorite finds and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Adrian’s VIP Subscription Boxes make such great gifts and are a wonderful way to treat yourself! Debra, one of our staff members, said that she would USE every single item in this box…and I would tend to agree! Every item is usable, and was chosen to delight anyone who receives this as a gift or purchases for themselves.
Just a reminder… Subscribers can purchase this box for just $35 (value is $65+) or you can purchase as one time gift for $42. Shipping is available anywhere in the US for $8 and we include a hand-written coordinating card with your message on it. Boxes are carefully hand-packed with care.
