GlobeIn Artisan Gift Box Review

In my old age of 30, I have become a lot more aware of how my shopping habits affect the world. I may not be able to buy everything organic and fair trade, but I'm starting small and starting with a GlobeIn Artisan Box.  Each month, GlobeIn sends you 4-5 handcrafted items, and shares with you who makes it. 



For August, I picked the Pamper GlobeIn Artisan Box.  It seems like the one that fit me best. 



In the Pamper box, I got a cute, handwoven Palm Leaf Basket. This basket was made in by Marina in Mexico. She's part of the Oaxacan basket weavers groups that she oversees. Marina describes herself as an entrepreneur who desires to improve her family's financial stability.  



In the basket, was Cosmetic Argan Oil from Morocco. I've never used argan oil so I am excited to try it. You can use it as a daily facial moisturiser, used on irritated skin, scars and chapped lips. You can even use it as a deep hair conditioner. The oil is from The Argan Project which helps women work in the home at their own pace. Helping women succeed and feeling pretty. Double-win. 



Now... I was SO surprised to see this jewelry roll in the Pamper Box. I LOVE it. It's the perfect size for your purse or travel. The fabric was hand-dyed through an ancient process of batik with toxic-free dye. The jewelry roll is from the Batik Boutique in Malaysia and provides women life skills and sewing training that help support their families. 

Zana (in the red scarf) is a single mother of seven children! She's able to use her sewing skills with Batik to help provide for her children. There's something really special knowing that the jewelry roll that I will carry around with be so connected in helping a woman prosper. 

It's a hot summer in Arkansas, but it's cold inside so many buildings so it's nice to have a light scarf on hand in my bag. This Shibori Scarf was made in India  through a Japanese technique of dyeing cloth in  a way with the binding and folding that gives it its pattern. 

So, if you are interested in pampering yourself AND helping provide women all around the world with jobs to better themselves and their families, check out the Pamper Box from GlobeIn.
