• what is BOXthetic?

    a cross-cultural kaleidoscope of the packages our stuff comes in. you know, the materials that that hold, encase, wrap, display, secure the goodies we mean to possess and consume. we actually like those things. enough to start a blog about it. enjoy!
  • about Sachima

    Sachima has always liked gift boxes and wrapping paper, sometimes more than the actual gift. A mild pack rat, she's one of "those people" who likes to save pretty shopping bags. She hopes that the world of packaging will be just as interesting to you too.

no spill thrill

i’m very sensitive to scents, and definitely am one of those people that hate having perfume sprayed in my face when going through the cosmetic counters in stores. i do like smelling nice though, so i was really happy to find a scent i liked in solid form from L’Occitane:

what i like about it:

- i have a lot better control of how much to put on, and where, instead of spraying into the air and waving about.

- it’s less intense than dabbing liquid on.

- no more choking when i breathe in particles.

- no more risking bothering other people as this spreads far less than sprays. 

most importantly:

- it’s much easier to carry as it’s compact and won’t leak.
