Unboxing Beauty

Kloverbox came just in time for the end of the month!  I did get it yesterday, but it usually takes me at least a day to do an unboxing during the work week.   Kloverbox is an eco-friendly, organic lifestyle box and is one of my favorite subscriptions.  Kloverbox delivers deluxe and full size products and I have been impressed with their packaging and curating of their boxes. You can subscribe to Kloverbox  either as a month-to-month at $25/monthly, 3 month subscription at $23.75/monthly or a 6 month subscription at $22.50/monthly

Zoe Organics Breathe Balm  I suffer so badly from allergies and sinuses that I am always sniffing some type of eucalyptus based oil to help clear them. This is a balm that I can put under my nose, but also use like a Vicks Vapor Rub ~ on my chest, back and even the soles of my feet!  This helps you breathe better and reduces coughs as well when you use it on your chest and back.  It is 100% natural and organic, made with eucalyptus,  tea tree, lavender and cedar essential oils ~ The scent is very pleasant ~ I can smell the lavender, but also the brisk clean scent of eucalyptus and warm, spicy cedar.   I like this is in a stick balm form as it makes application non-messy and it is portable, which makes it your own personal aromatherapy treatment in a stick!   This is cruelty free, non-GMO and gluten free.

Why put this on your feet? There is a practice called reflexology and it is based on pressure on your hands and feet to treat issues with other parts of your body.  The base of your three middle toes are connected to your sinuses, so by applying eucalyptus oil (or products with eucalyptus oil) on those areas will help clear your sinuses and relieve congestion ~ massage this on your feet and supposedly it will help in those areas!  Save 15% at Zoe Organics with coupon code JUNEKLOVERBOX Full Size 17 grams RV $14.00

eSCENTials Aroma Don’t Bug Me  This is an all natural insect repellent from a lovely etsy shop that I actually won a great prize package last year.  

It is 100% pure and natural and has the classic citronella scent that I associate with bug sprays! This also has some tones of lemongrass and lavender too, and it is a really nice scent.  It is that time when bugs come out to bite and I love the fact it is all natural.  For some reason, bugs HATE citronella.  It doesn’t kill them, but repeals them, so you don’t have to worry about killing the “good” insects with your spray.  As you can tell, I do love using more natural ingredients when I can and saving the heavy duty “chemicals” for when it is really dire.  You have to shake the bottle before each use, and you apply when needed.  Hand crafted and created by a certified aromatherapist, using organic and wild-crafted ingredients.

I am really curious what the theme was this month! Update: And now I know 🙂   I think that getting two full sized items from artisan crafted vendors is a pretty good value and I do like Harvey Prince, even though Birchbox might have soured some folks ~ there was a time you couldn’t sneeze without BB putting a HP product in a box!  I do love the Hello scent, however and that mini will be good for a couple of uses.  I love the scent of the balm and will use it on my feet ~ learn something new everyday!  Keeps ya young and your mind sharp! ahaha  I am glad to try another product from eSCENTials Aroma as well, as I love their lavender scented Sweet Dreams scented spray.  I paid $15.00 due to a Black Friday promo code + renewing 3 month subscription and received a value of  $31.00. Do you subscribe to Kloverbox?  What was your favorite product this month?  I love the Breathe Balm 🙂
