Conscious Box 2012: Leap Into Summer

So… I got my Conscious Box last week and I forgot to post it! Ah! 

If you aren’t aware, Conscious Box is a subscription service where you receive food and products from eco-friendly and cruelty-free brands. Many of the items are also vegetarian or vegan. It’s a great way to find new socially responsible brands to support, something I’m really trying to do more of. This box is $12 a month with $5 shipping, so at $17 it’s a little more pricey then my other subscriptions but since it helps me try new food and lifestyle products I wanted to try it! If you know any other lifestyle subscriptions, let me know!

In my June Conscious Box:
1. Vega One All-in-One Nutritional Shake, Chocolate
2. Artisana Cashew Butter
3. EBOOST Super Berry Natural Energy Booster
4. KO Denmark Body Lotion
5. Nuti-Masu Life Ocean Salt
6. Lara Bar, Lemon 
7. Mighty Leaf Tea, Organic Earl Grey and Organic Spring Jasmine
8. Natural Vitality Energy
9. Savvy Boheme Natural Deodorant
10. The Natural Newborn Bug Repellent
11. Kelp Krunch Seaweed Energy Bar
12. Bonus item: Soap Hope

^If you post on their Facebook page you get an extra item! I didn’t get mine this month, not sure why.

It takes me pretty much the whole month to try everything since they are snack based. So far I’ve only tried the Lara Bar and the deodorant…. I hated the bar. I just don’t like Lara Bars. I’ve tried four and found only one tolerable. 

I also tried the Savvy Boheme deodorant. It was weird at first but it was effective. I’d like to try a different scent though because I’m not a fan of peppermint. 

I’m not happy about the tea. I feel like I’m the only one person in the world that doesn’t like tea sometimes. I’ve been experimenting with mixing tea into my conditioner and spraying it in my hair after I shower. I haven’t gotten it down to a science yet though. 

I’ll probably try the Vita Rocks tomorrow morning. What a cool idea! It’s like Pop Rocks but good for you!

I haven’t decided who to send my post card to. Maybe as a response to someone who sends a letter to my PO Box?! 

What interesting natural items have you tried?

Kindness is the best accessory,
