Conscious Box Review + Giveaway



r


More and more people are starting to become more green friendly and for those of you who are,  you know how important it is.  For those of you who have not yet been introduced to Conscious Box let me be the first to introduce you to them and hopefully get you a little interested in becoming more Eco-friendly!  Conscious Box offers a monthly subscription service to receive one Conscious Box per month.  

What exactly is a Conscious Box you may be wondering.  A Conscious Box is a box filled with product samples and coupons, which allows you to try Eco-Friendly brands that you may have never tried or not yet been introduced to.  The neat thing about Conscious Box is you can find some really cool brands that you would have never even known about if it weren't for Conscious Box.  This is the third box I have received so far and I must say I have found many great brands/products that have now become a staple in my household!  

Each box features a different theme,  so for instance for February I received the "Valentine's Day" themed box.  As always Conscious Box didn't dissapoint,  it was packed full of a lovely selection of goodies and even included some adult goodies!  I know your dieing to find out what was inside so take a look below to find out.




  • Full Size Bar of Nature's Crops in Quinoa & Strawberry - A delicious nutrition bar that provides a good source of protein.
  • Sample size Baby Goods Barrier & Diaper Cream - Natural and organic diaper cream packed full of Vitamin A, C, D, and E.

 I must say I really really enjoyed this box and absolutely loved the theme.  I really liked the entire box but I did have some favorites.  The Badger Lip Tint & Shimmer smelled a lot like chocolate and left my lips with just the perfect amount of tint and shimmer.  The Himala Salt contains pure pink Himalayan sea salt and actually contains pink!  Dr. Cleangreen's Handy Essentials Hand Instant Purifier smells and works great.  My children were recently sick so my husband and I frequently used it on our hands and guess what,  we didn't get sick!  I also really liked the Bloomin heart shaped seed paper which when planted sprouts wildflowers,  how cool is that!

Conscious Box is is a box that contains  a variety of  environmentally products and samples that are delivered to your door step each month.  Basically you subscribe to the service and each month you receive a Consious Box filled with awesome items that are all pure and natural.  


They offer three different subscription plans to choose from:

  1. $12/ Monthly + $7 shipping = $19 a month
  2. $33/Every 3 months + $7 shipping = $54 every 3 months
  3. $64/Every 6 months + $7 shipping = $106 every 6 months
So now that you know a little about Conscious Box let's take a peek inside to see just exactly what it is like!
  • GUAYAKI YERBA MATE Organic Tea Bags
  • Kelapo Virgin Coconut Oil
  • ThinkThin Crunch Fruit and Nut Bar
  • Jo-Sha Lavendar Wipe

As you can see they really fill the box full of lots of items!  I think what I like best about Conscious Box is that you get to try brands that you normally wouldn't,  and be introduced to brands that you have never even heard of!   And to top it all off they are all earth friendly so you can have a clear conscious about the products you are using.  

I was especially impressed with the WORLD CENTRIC cutlery because it is made from plants not petroleum and is certified compostable,  now how cool is that!  I was also very happy with the Clean Well instant hand sanitizer which worked really well.  I now keep it in my purse so I can use it any time I may need it.  It really comes in handy especially when I am out grocery shopping,  you know how germy those carts can get.  Although it only contains 0.5 oz it actually will last you 100 sprays and on top of that it's formula is kid safe!

Today I have the pleasure of introducing you to a wonderful company by the name of blissmobox.  They provide a great way to introduce you to new and upcoming brands,  as well as well known brands,  all of which are totally earth friendly products.  Think of it as a way of being introduced to  Eco-friendly products without having to pay a ton of money to find out about great organic and Eco friendly brands that you would like to continue to purchase.

2.  Each month you will be given the option to choose from a set of limited quantity box options.  If you would like they will auto choose the box that they think would fit you best.  If you don't like the option for that month you may choose to send it to a friend or family member instead. 

3.  Receive your box each month and discover wonderful organic and Eco-friendly products that are best for your family.  If for any reason you are not fully satisfied with blissmobox  you may choose to cancel at any time.


One of the greatest things about blissmobox is that it saves you a bunch of money.  Matter of fact,  each box has a value of atleast $30,  sometimes much more!  Besides that,  you will be able to find the best products for your family,  bodies,  community,  environment,  and you will be introduced to exciting new brands that you may not have tried,  had you not purchased a blissmobox.   Some of the awesome brands that you will find throughout blissmoboxes are: Method,  Numi Organic Tea,  Yes to Carrots,  Sambazon,  and Kaia Foods. 

So,  I bet your wondering what I received in my box, right?  Well,  here's a sneak peak into my box...



I received a Morning BLISS blissmo box which contained the following items:

* St. Claires Organic Mints - These small mints were just the right size and contained just the right amount of minty flavor.  My husband used them to freshen his breath while at work.

* LUNA Blueberry Bliss Nutrition Bar - This was super yummy and definitely one of my favorites out of the entire box.  I shared it with both of my babies and my two year old thought it was a candy bar.  What a great way to get them to eat healthy!  It also makes a great pick me up in the morning on your way to work.

* LUNA Toasted Nuts 'n Cranberry Nutrition Bar - This wholesome bar tasted nutty and fruity.  I also shared it with my youngest sons and they enjoyed it as well.  It contains Calcium,  Folic Acid,  Protein and Fiber.

* Raw Walnut Butter with Cashews - It provides a great source of Omega-3 and Omega-6.  It is free of Peanuts,  Gluten, Dairy, Cholesterol,  or GMO's and it is 100% organic.  I used it just like I would use regular peanutbutter by spreading it on a piece of bread,  spread jelly on the other and gave it to my son to eat for lunch.  He never knew the difference and ate it just like he would any other peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

*Preserve Toothpicks - After eating the LUNA bar I used one of these toothpicks to pick my tooth.  They are cinnamint flavored which tastes great!  They came packaged in a handy tube that fits perfectly in my purse.

* Preserve Toothbrush - This green toothbrush is made out of recycled yogurt cups,  how awesome is that!  It's curved handle helps clean hard to reach places.

Purely Elizabeth. - Gluten Free,  Vegan,  Free of Refined Sugar!  This Cranberry Pecan Granola Cereal is a great and healthy way to start your morning!  My kids are huge cereal lovers,  so this is so much better for them than their normal sugar downed cereal.

*Grounds for Change - Mexico "Cafe Femenino"is a medium roast ground coffee.  Every single bean that they roast is Fair Trade Certified,  CarbonFree Certified and Shade Grown.  This is the only item I haven't had a chance to sample yet but I'm definitely looking forward to trying it!

* Slice of Life - I saved the best for last!  These adult gummy vitamins are super soft and taste fruity - almost like a regular gummy would taste!  After all,  gummies aren't just for kids,  they're for adults too!


 
BUY IT:  Each month you will be charged $19 a box plus $3 shipping fees.

Massage Oil *Closed*


Whats better than a nice relaxing massage?  Not much,  that is why the entire 8 and a half years that I have been with my husband I have bothered him time and time again to massage my back.   And each time I was pregnant I bothered  him with full body massages.   Being the good husband that he is,  he usually always gives in.  Matter of fact,  massages are my doctors orders!  Once I was seen by my doctor for neck, back,  and muscle pain and she reccomended lots of massages.  That is why I was stoked to review Tropical Traditions Organic Massage Oil!

I am sure by now,  if you follow my blog posts,  you know about Tropical Traditions great products.  This is my third time reviewing their products,  and I am sure you will see a lot  more posts in the future about Tropical Traditions.  This time I chose to review a bottle of their Organic Massage Oil.  I have been massaged plenty of times,  but never before tried any type of massage oil.  The eight ounce bottle arrived,  and I couldn't wait to try it out,  not to mention the fact that it gave me an excuse to get a massage!  

Tropical Traditions Organic Massage Oil is available in four scents:
  1. Lavender
  2. Mint
  3. Arnica
  4. Unscented
I have always been fond of  mint,  so I decited to chose the mint scented organic massage oil.  The first thing I did when the bottle arrived was opened it up,  and smelled it since I was anxious to see how it smelled.  There is no other way to explain in other than straight mint!  If you are a fan of mint then you will definently want to try it out.  It was neither too strong nor too week...it was just right!

Each 8 ounce bottle of Organic Massage Oil retails for $18.95,  but is currently only $13.50.   I am going to let you in on a little secret,  besides using it as a massage oil it can also be used in your bath water.  Simply add one tablespoon to your bath water and wallah- you got yourself a nice invigorating bath!  Once I heard that I had to give it a try.  It turned my ordinary bath into a nice calming relaxing bath. 

As soon as we used the Tropical Traditions Organic Massage Oil,  we knew it was a keeper!  It left my skin feeling soft and smooth without any greasy feeling.  I used some on my husbands back and it actually made massaging his back easier.  It almost seemed like it made my hands glide over his back!  It really helped enhance our massages.

Tropical Traditions Orgain Massage Oils are made using their very own Organic Coconut Oil and Virgin Palm Oil.  There are no other oils on the market that are made with finer oils as thier base.  These oils are imported directly from the manufacturer in France.  They only use high quality organic essential oils distilled with low temperature,  and low pressure over an extended period of time.

Zoe B Organics

I recently had the opportunity to review a Sleepy Hat by Zoe B Organic   Valerie Lecoeur,  the founder of the company,  wanted to make safe and healthy options for her three children and ended up making "Sleepy Hats".  Sleep Hats come in a Cream color and retails on her site for $16.99.  My baby sometimes has trouble taking his naps.  He easily gets distracted by light and other visual distractions but when he is wearing his Sleepy Hat,   he does nothing but sleep!  Not to mention the fact that the hat is absolutely adorable!  Below,  is a picture of my son peacefully sleeping with his sleepy hat on.

The hat is designed to help the baby sleep easier.  It contains a flip down mask and is made out of 100 percent organic, breathable,  super soft material.  The mask is a perfect fit by contouring to the babies nose.  I take the hat with me no matter where we go so i can always have a quick sleep solution handy for my baby.  The hats are manufactured in Asheville, North Carolina.  The hat should not be worn until the baby is old enough and able to pull the hat off if bothered.  My son is seven months and this is not a problem for him!  When he wants if off he simply pulls it off...no problem!  Zoe B Organics is kindly offering all my readers a Discount coupon code for 10% off your entire order with the code: "holidays".  Be sure to type the code in the discount code bar while checking out to receive your 10% discount.  

*Disclosure-  I received a free product to possibly review.  In no way did it alter my opinion of their products.  All of my opinions are one hundred percent honest and true.*
