Get your monthly fix of beauty, skin care, and accessories

by Abraham Martinez

If you thought last month’s spooky NYLON Box was something to be thankful for, get ready to feast your eyes on what’s inside November’s. Stuffed with even more of our favorite staff-tested, editor-approved beauty products (as well as some other goodies), you’ll be sure to have the best month yet, despite temperature drops and having to put up with annoying relatives come Turkey Day.

This month, we’re bringing you some amazing (and fabulous smelling) moisturizers and cleansers, the perfect fall lip color (and gloss to go with it), an on-the-go notebook, and one of four custom Pop Sockets—a NYLON exclusive!—designed with you in mind. Oh, and each box is delivered straight to your door—perfect for avoiding those pesky Black Friday crowds. (Now, that's yet another thing to be thankful for!)

As always, first-timers can subscribe here and use the code “FIRSTFIVE” at checkout for $5 off of your first box. Bask in all the glory of this month’s NYLON Box, below.

Pop Sockets, Custom NYLON Buttons, $15, available at Pop Sockets.

Never drop your phone again with this handy device that makes holding your phone easy as pie.

“Don't let their appearance deceive you; these lil' circles you stick to the back of your smartphone are miracle workers—especially for those with phones as big as the iPhone Whatever Plus. They not only make holding your phone comfortable but taking photos, including selfies, isn't a balancing act anymore. Plus, you can use them to prop your phone up, should you want. Oh, and the pop-in and pop-out function is basically like a fidget spinner without the spinning: same comfort, different release.” — Hayden Manders, senior staff writer

Mi Goals, Get Shit Done Pink Notebook, $6.95, available at Mi Goals.

This pink, pocket-friendly wonder is perfect for jotting down to-do lists and taking notes while on the go.

“I'm a very visual person, so lists are a MUST for me. I love how portable this notebook is and the fact that I can take it anywhere. The dates up top keep me organized, and the inspirational quote on the first page gets me almost as motivated as coffee! It's the perfect on-the-go notebook to get shit done!” — Stephanie Lopez, assistant controller

Nudestix, Lip Pencil in 'Freckle,' $24, available at Nudestix.

Kylie, who? This gorgeous (and cruelty-free) lip pencil lasts like a tattoo and is made with vegan ingredients.

“You might not expect it from a typically super-soft lip pencil, but Nudestix's new Magnetic Matte Lip Pencil really lasts. 'Freckle' is a super-wearable rusty red that's the perfect work lip—I wore mine through lunch all the way until I got drinks with friends.” — Angela Lashbrook, social media editor

Amika, Nourishing Hair Mask, $10, available at Amika.

Use as you like: This mask is perfect for a weekly treatment, or as an everyday conditioner. Leave on for two to five minutes and rinse for gorgeously hydrated hair.

“The Amika Nourishing Hair Mask smells amazing and really helps cut down on frizz. It leaves a great shine and made my hair way more manageable.” — Stephanie Thompson, staff accountant

“I dare you to find a better makeup remover than this one. Apply it to dry skin, add water midway a couple of seconds in, and rinse. For extra effectiveness, follow up with a lightweight cleanser. There's a reason a bottle of this stuff is sold every 10 seconds around the world—it works like a dream.” — Taylor Bryant, web editor
