The Spring 2024 Jilly Box Revealed
Included in Your Spring 2024 Jilly Box
ONE WEDNESDAY
Waffle Knit Robe
VALUED AT $120 CAD
The first product in this season’s Jilly Box that I am so excited to announce is the Waffle Robe from One Wednesday! One of the first things I reach for in the morning when I’m rolling out of bed is my Waffle Robe! The Turkish stone-washed cotton is so soft with a lovely worn-in feel, and the waffle texture is also great to wrap up when stepping out of the shower. We have designed three EXCLUSIVE colourways: Strawberry Cream (pink), Blue Skies (blue) and Golden Haze (yellow).
One Wednesday has been a favourite brand of mine and Team Jilly Box for many years! Previously, we featured a custom Beige Leopard Universal Throw in The Fall 2021 Jilly Box, which was a huge hit. Soon after, conversations began about including a custom robe in the box. For Jilly Box sleuths, you may have even spotted me wearing my yellow Waffle Robe in my stories over the past year. (Well done, if you correctly guessed, it would be in this season’s box!)
The Waffle Robe comes in sizes XS to 3XL (I am wearing a size XS, for reference!). More quantities of the Waffle Robe have now hit the market, so be sure to place your orders now to snag some for your friends and family! (And refer to the sizing page to find the best fit!)
Please note: the sleeve lengths are the same across all robe sizes. This is standard across the board for One Wednesday since they developed the robes years ago! Please consult the care instructions on the Waffle Robe Sizing Page before washing!
CAUDALIE
Beauty Elixir
VALUED AT $62 CAD
You will recognize this brand as I have loved and championed their products for years… and that brand is Caudalie! In this season’s box, we have included a Caudalie fan favourite: the Beauty Elixir! It is a hydrating face mist that visibly tightens, enhances your natural glow and even doubles as a dewy mist setting spray for makeup. Basically, it’s everything you could want in a skin elixir, which is why I have stayed loyal to this brand for well over a decade! Better yet, it’s vegan, cruelty-free, and 100% natural!
Founded in Bordeaux in 1995, Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas established Caudalie after learning that grape extracts contained the most powerful natural antioxidants in the world. Today, after almost 30 years of up-cycling grapes, Caudalie is a leader in the natural and sustainable beauty space, partnering with some of the most innovative institutions to produce cutting-edge and effective clean beauty products.
With sustainable and environmentally conscious practices at the root of the brand, Caudalie has championed sustainability in the beauty space with annual 1% for the planet contributions, planet-friendly packaging practices, and product packing recycling initiatives. It is for all of these reasons and more that I and the team have become big fans!
MALA THE BRAND
Cereal Candle
VALUED AT $40 CAD
Where did the theme of this box come from? Well, I’ll tell ya! It was inspired by this deliciously scented Cereal Candle from Mala the Brand! When I first came across this candle, I could not get over how much it smelled like cereals I used to indulge in as a kid! Bring on the nostalgia!! As you may remember from The Summer 2023 Jilly Box, Mala’s candles are hand-poured and crafted from simple ingredients. This 6.8 oz candle has a burn time of 40-45 hours and will inspire you to pour a bowl of your favourite childhood cereal, turn on the cartoons and enjoy your morning!
Now I know so many of you who received the box are going to want more from this BC-bred company, so here’s what to know about Mala the Brand: Their hand-poured candles are crafted from the simplest of ingredients: natural coconut soy wax, wood wicks (for maximum cozy feels), lead-free cotton wicks & a premium blend of phthalate-free fragrance & essential oils. With every purchase of a candle, Mala plants one tree! (Yes to sustainability efforts!) Additionally, they select sustainable materials as best they can when it comes to the creation of their candles and packaging while also creating in small quantities to maintain quality and to avoid unnecessary waste.
Our team is SO EXCITED about once again including a candle of theirs in The Jilly Box! We hope this candle makes you recall happy memories and inspires you to create more!
Be sure to stock up on more Cereal Candles on The Jilly Box Market now!
TEASE TEA
Smart Heated Mug Kit 2.0
VALUED AT $115 CAD
Do you love starting your morning off with a warm bevy?! We have a special product that is sure to change your life… This unique mug kit, designed by Tease Tea, will keep your go-to bevy at OPTIMAL TEMPERATURE in style! Available in four custom colours—Blueberry Daze (blue), Sunny-Side Up (yellow), Strawberry Smoothie (pink), and Honeydew (green)—each kit comes complete with a 12 oz ceramic hand-glazed mug, a smart heated coaster, and a 2-in-1 lid and drip tray! In case that’s not enough to wow you when you’re not using the coaster to keep your drink warm, you can use it to charge the majority of phones and wireless headphones!! Yeah, we’re kind of obsessed!!
You all loved the Golden Slumber tea from Tease Tea so much that we wanted to bring a drinking vessel from them to you to enjoy your beverage in! If you did not get The Spring 2023 Jilly Box and this is the first time you are hearing of Tease Tea, allow me to introduce you: their brand creates natural tea and botanical-based essentials that complement each other and your goals without compromising convenience, sustainability, or impact. They are Canadian and women-owned as well as B Corp Certified!!
Be sure to add more Tease Tea Heated Mugs to your collection now while quantities last! And, while you’re at it, grab some Golden Slumbers tea for the perfect drink to lull you into a restful night’s slumber.
BE HOME
Shae Glass Bud Vase
VALUED AT $38 CAD
Design is one of my greatest passions… I love sprucing up my space each season, and what better way than with some seasonal flowers in this gorgeous Shae Bud Vase from Be Home?! (And no, it was not named after our Shay! LOL. Just a happy coincidence!) It’s handcrafted, dishwasher safe, and just the perfect addition for the breakfast table, nightstand or side table to house your favourite flowers. Please note: due to the handcrafted nature, there will be some size variances.

INE+ NUTRITION
Super Greens
VALUED AT $63 CAD
You all know I have been on a MISSION to prioritize my wellness this year, and one product that blew me away was this Super Greens Powder from ine+ nutrition! Featured in this season’s Jilly Box is a CUSTOM ‘Orchard Peach’ flavour. This powder is intended to improve gut health, better-focused energy, alertness, vitality, mental clarity and support for brain health. Simply scoop (10 g) and dissolve in a 250 ml glass of water or smoothie, and enjoy!
Ine+ nutrition was founded by husband and wife duo Talia and Elon. With Elon’s background in the fitness industry and Talia having worked in the medical field, they both had a strong interest in health and wellness but couldn’t find supplements that met the mark. So, they started their own business!
Ine+ nutrition isn’t like just any supplement company. Their commitment to quality, sustainability and community is impressive—especially considering they only launched in 2020. All of their products are manufactured in Canada to ensure they maintain high quality, and they are committed to donating a portion of sales to the non-profit Angel Hair for Kids, AND they use ONLY recyclable packaging! I could go on and on about ine+ nutrition… I have no doubt this brand is going to become well-loved by our Jilly Box community!
Head over to The Jilly Box Market now to get more of this must-have Greens Powder!
MIFA
Detox Body Brush
VALUED AT $29 CAD
In the last year I’ve incorporated dry brushing into my morning routine, and I have loved the results! The practice is known to exfoliate dead skin, boost circulation and help detoxify your skin by promoting lymphatic flow and drainage. The Detox Body Brush in this Jilly Box was thoughtfully made with a beechwood handle and 100% natural, biodegradable sisal fibres. To use, start at your ankles and move up your body. Brush your skin using long strokes upwards. If you’re new to dry brushing, use extremely light pressure. Brush your arms after you’ve brushed your legs and mid-section. And make sure to do this PRIOR to going into the shower! Two to three times a week is recommended.
MIFA is a 100% natural body care brand that provides a sensory spa-at-home experience, using aromatherapy to help you balance, restore, and relax effortlessly. We take a holistic approach to body care that encourages self-care at the deepest level. With our versatile, multi-use, minimalist body care line, MIFA is helping to build intentional rituals for every body, every mind, and every skin.
If you want to try dry brushing, we’ve added some of these MIFA Dry Brushes to The Jilly Box Market! And be sure to grab some for your friends and family to try, too!

The Alix Parisotto Heart Dish
This adorable heart dish (available in two colourways!) was featured in last year’s Spring 2023 Jilly Box. It was such a hit we knew we had to bring it back so you could get your hands on more for your circle of people! There are many different ways you can use this Heart Dish from Alix Parisotto Ceramics. Whether you display it in your home as a piece of art or a more functional use like a ring tray! Not only is this dish adorable and useful but it’s also handmade RIGHT HERE in Canada, making each piece so unique! It is waterproof, dishwasher, microwave and food safe.
The Barefoot Venus Mustard Bath
I personally fell in love with this product about 14 years ago (fun fact: the women who own this company are from Peace River and now live in Kelowna!), and I couldn’t be happier to share it with all of you AGAIN today! This Mustard Bath from Barefoot Venus was first shared with The Jilly Box community in the Fall 2020 Jilly Box! If you didn’t try this product, then let me tell you… it will have you soaking in your tub for HOURS! Run a hot bath, add the mustard bath, inhale, and relax. Not only does it smell amazing thanks to wintergreen, eucalyptus and rosemary, but the therapeutic properties of mustard work to pull nasty toxins from your skin, all while leaving you feeling top-notch!
And—even better!—you can now order a refill for your Barefoot Venus container on The Jilly Box site! Check it out here.
The Blume Latte Blends
I know not everyone is a coffee fiend, and Blume Latte blends are great alternatives with so many health benefits! Our team always has our office cabinets STOCKED with these blends to enjoy throughout the day, so featuring these products on the website really does come from such a genuine place of love.
We have THREE latte blends available for you to purchase: Blue Lavender, Matcha Coconut, and Rose London Fog. I would say pick your favourite, but once you try Blume lattes, you are going to want to get all three!!
The Melanie Auld Tennis Bracelet
Finally, we have brought BACK the Melanie Auld Tennis Bracelet in Silver AND brought more units of the gold bracelet to the Market. All of you were SO excited about these bracelets featured in The Holiday Jilly Box. They are such a seasonally transitional piece that we rushed to get more to you this Spring! This tennis bracelet features bezel-set cubic zirconia gems atop a 14k gold-plated over brass bracelet. We love the delicate gem setting that is reminiscent of dew drops on a cool morning. Treat yourself to this stunning piece, or gift it to someone you love! This item is available in four sizes (5,6,7 & 8″), and add an extender to extend the sizing more! Check out the sizing details here.
As you can tell… there are a TON of amazing new items on the market! Run, don’t walk to get the first pick at all of the stunning colourways and delicious flavours!
And, as always, thank you for your love and support! The excitement for The Jilly Box each season never ceases to amaze me, and it fuels my excitement to keep creating beautiful boxes for you!
xo,
Jilly
