January Vegan Conscious Box Review

I really love Conscious Box for a lot of reasons, and I'm always eager to host reviews and giveaways for them.  I've shared a lot of unboxings over the past year, and as a thank you to some of their blogger partners Conscious Box sent us a free January box!

I received the vegan box, which was fun for me because before I was a subscriber to their "regular" service and had never gotten the vegan kind.  Aside from the regular and vegan choices, they now have a gluten-free subscription that will begin in February.  Check out my unboxing video below and scroll a little further for a list of what was inside.

• Hail Merry Macaroons Choco
• Simply Straws Handcrafted Glass Straw
• Peeled Snacks Apple Clusters Berry Crunch
• Happy Squeeze Treat Chocolate Pear
• Amazing Grass Kidz Superfood
• Dr. Singha's Mustard Bath
• Dale's Raw Protein Bar Raspberry Hazelnut
• MAAKOA Koopuwa
• Bodhichitta Botanicals Cafe Macchiato Body Oil
• Nutiva Hemp Seed
• People Towels

I'm not vegan, but I appreciate the lifestyle and would purchase these items anyway.  As with a lot of my past Conscious Boxes, this one was a mostly food, which is okay once in a while.  The reason I cancelled my subscription after a year was because I was noticing less of a variety of items (i.e. a lot of boxes were mostly food), but I still think it's a great subscription for people who are interested in learning more about leading a sustainable lifestyle.

September Vegan Conscious Box Review

The winner of my Vegan Conscious Box giveaway, Bev, was kind enough to provide me with her thoughts on the first-ever vegan box.  Check them out below!

• Funky Monkey Freeze-Dried Fruit in "Purple Funk" - Didn't like the texture of these, not a dried fruit fan I guess.
• Happy Squeeze Orange Mango Coconut Milk - This was very good!
• Artisana Goji & Milk Thistle Nut Butter - YUM!
• Teeccino Maya Herbal Coffee - One large package and two smaller tea bag sizes, the tea bags were good but I don't have a regular coffee maker to try the larger package.
• Clean Well Disinfectant Wipe - Just a standard wipe in my opinion, it smelled good though.  I cleaned all the doorknobs in the house :)
• C3 for Stress - I have tried these in other boxes and don't really care for them
• Kelapo Virgin Coconut Oil - I added this to a smoothie, added that extra coconut flavor
• Vega Sport Pre-Workout Energizer - Didn't really care for this or really have any use for it as I don't use pre-workout energizers
• Ancient Minerals Magnesium Oil - I admit I was afraid to try this.  Spraying something like this on my body seemed odd.  I noticed at my massage last night that they had the same stuff but I forgot to ask about it.
• Madecasse Chocolates - Two small bars.  These were good, but I think I'm just used to regular chocolates, so for me these had a bitter aftertaste.
• Vaska Laundry Detergent - I have tried this before and I like it.
• Hurraw! Coconut Lip Balm - I really like to try different lip balms and this was good, although it didn't have much staying power.
• 100% Pure Cabernet Grape Nourishing Body Cream - Two small packages.  Love, love, love this stuff!  I could see myself purchasing this.
• There were several coupons/inserts as well: $5 gift certificate for Core Defender Meal (got one in my regular Conscious Box also), 25% off the Ancient Minerals, $10 credit for opensky.com, a couple inserts having to do with the founder of Vega, 20% discount for the Madecasse website, and $1 off any Vaska product.

Bev says, "It was like Christmas getting this vegan box and my regular Conscious Box.  I love trying all these new items and finding new favorites."  Thanks again to Bev for sharing her review!
