Hi Loves!
I hope everyone is enjoying their week! 🙂
I wanted to do something new and this my first time doing a subscription box review. I previously signed up for the Conscious Box a few weeks ago. Thanks to Facebook! haha they had a sponsored advertisement mentioning that I could get my first month free just pay the shipping fee which was about $5. There’s two available options
1. The Taster- monthly samples
2. The Plus-with more samples and a few full size premium product
There’s also 3 different varieties: Classic, Vegan or Gluten Free.
I’ll show you guys what I received in my box! 🙂
ECOVER Dishwasher Tablets:
- Contains: 2 free automatic dishwasher tablets. Power, effective cleaning. *Phosphate and chlorine free *Biodegradable * Not tested on animals.

Sadly I don’t own a dishwasher so I’ll probably give this away to a friend or a family member who has one! 😦

I personally love any type of deodorant towelettes. It’s a great way to get refreshed when you’re on the go, either at work, the gym or traveling. Not too strong of a scent and does the job right!

When I first saw this, I was a bit intimidated due to seeing it green. However, after I did try it, I loved it! It’s not too sweet, healthy and it does fill you up. I like the fact that they do have cashews, sunflower seed kernels and dates.
I don’t have an exact picture of it because I was so intrigued that I ate it before I could take a picture of it!
Lastly, I received a Serengetee Fabric Swatch.
- Customizable shirts & bags with Fabric from around all the world.

My Verdict:
I honestly wouldn’t order another Conscious Box just because I can’t use all of the products I received. I did like Annie’s Bunny Grahams, the Raw Rev 100 bar, the Crystal towelettes, and the Weleda shampoo and conditioner.

Blooming Beauty Bites 
We got a box, and I was extremely disappointed as well. We paid $8 for a livingsocial deal for a box and it was hardly worth that much. It was mostly samples for health and beauty products, along with a few chocolate bars (shipped to Phoenix, in June) and I didn’t like most of the health and beauty stuff when I tried them.
Additionally, I cancelled my subscription the day that my first box arrived (July 1), and was told that I had to pay full price for another month since I had cancelled after the beginning of the month. Really?? They expect people to cancel BEFORE they get a box or be on the hook for an extra month? This is especially infuriating since I didn’t get the notice saying the box had shipped until 7/18, meaning that they clearly could have cancelled my next box on the first of the month. Yes, their FAQ says subscriptions must be canceled before the first or you get charged again, but this seems to border on deceptive to me. I contacted customer service and they stuck to the FAQ and charged me for the second box (which just arrived and was a bit better than the first, but still not worth $20).
