Good Evening!
I
was excited to find out I won a box when participating in a Facebook contest a while back,
and this is my first box ever. I decided to take the unopened box with me on
vacation and it turned out to be a lot of fun. My boyfriend and I
tried every single product together, which was a fun bonding activity. We both
wrote down our thoughts and I was able to incorporate them in my reviews. Each
and every product in the box was new and interesting to me and I can’t wait for
an opportunity to receive and review another box! #latepost

I am a bit
hesitant to try Palo Popcorn Premium Cheddar Cheese popcorn because the image
on the packaging is very unappealing and looks like dried earwax. However,
don't judge a bag by it's cover because the popcorn is beyond amazing! The
cheddar cheese is sharp and, like it claims, every kernel was completely
drenched in it.The popcorn tastes like it was just popped thanks to the fresh
sealed bag. I love the fact that these are made in the cheese state of
Wisconsin and are non-GMO. I find that the amount of popcorn in the 3 ounce bag
is plenty since it's such a rich flavor that fills you up. Forget the napkin,
the remaining cheese is finger-licking good! Overall my partner and I loved the
popcorn and have picked out other flavors on their website to try in the
future.
I was very
curious as to what Wat-U-See Popped Chickpeatos in the flavor Caramel Sea Salt
would even taste like. The packaging is very appealing and I love the upbeat
imagery; it seems youthful and like a fun snack. Never having tried chickpeas,
I was skeptical if I would really like these. Upon opening the bag there was a
strong scent of sweet caramel which made me more willing to give these a
chance. The appearance of the puffs are like the ones you feed to toddlers, but
this is a snack for anyone and everyone. I will say I am a little disappointed
by the blandness after just trying a few, even though they claim bold flavor.
The outer powdered layer, which is the caramel flavor, seems to fall off or
stick to your fingers resulting in less flavor once the puff reaches your
mouth. I am not one hundred percent in love with this, but I do love the fact
that it is organic, only 100 calories and proceeds go to a good cause. I can
see switching to these for healthier snacking and would definitely recommend
these to mothers. The best part is that portion of purchase goes to feeding
families and children in need.
I
gave my boyfriend the Balla Body Products for Men Body Powder in the Tingle
Formula to try and he didn't really see the purpose of it. His initial reaction
was “what is this?” and “what do I do with it?” After having to look up more
information about it he tried it out. Prior to trying powder, he already
disliked the scent and said it smelled like strong cologne, something he
already doesn't wear. Moving along, he applied the powder in several areas,
said there was no tingle and still didn't see the point. Curious to see if his
claim was true, I pushed past the nasty stench to try it on my skin to no
avail. So, it's basically overpriced and funky smelling baby powder.
I
am in love with Healing Hydration Detox
Water! I received the Mango flavor and it tastes just like the real thing. I
was skeptical on the Aloe because I have only heard that in skin care products.
To see it in a water product sheds a whole new light on the plant. The drink
offers great benefits such as electrolytes and vitamins, but also helps aid
digestive health, nutrient absorption and strengthen immunity. So just like
applying a lotion with aloe vera, this drink will help improve skin health. I
loved the taste and it left me wanting more, so I can't wait to try their other
flavors. After doing some research on where to buy it, I wish it were more
accessible!
I tried the Honey Stinger Cran-Apple & Walnut snack bar in my goodie box
and I thought it was really tasty. First, opening the packaging it smelled
amazing and I enjoyed the not-too-chewy texture. I was a little hesitant on it
having walnuts because I really don't like them but they were in small enough
pieces that they complimented the other flavors and textures. The bar is a
perfect size for when you need a quick snack with low sugar and 3 grams of
protein. The best description is that it tasted like oatmeal with bold flavors
of cranberries and apples.
I love
using organic lip balms and I find that Goddess Garden organic lip balm with
sunscreen makes my lips feel soft and protected. I am constantly suffering from
chapped lips no matter what season it is and here in Michigan we go through
every single one. The design of the label looks simple, professional and would
have shelf appeal. The flavor I received was Lavender Mint and it's just light
enough of a scent for those who are sensitive to not be effected. I like the
short list of ingredients and the fact that this doubles as a sunscreen. With
30 SPF, this is more than the average lip balm and is great for the health of
your lips even if it's accidental sun exposure such as driving in your car or
sitting next to a window. It is recommended that you apply liberally to your
lips 15 minutes prior to sun exposure, but if you're anything like me that
isn't an issue. It's a great lip balm to keep on hand and I would love to try
out the other varieties from Goddess Garden.
I
often suffer from anxiety attacks so I am always on the lookout for products
that can help me deal with them. I like the fact that this magnesium supplement
is a natural way to reduce stresses. I tried the raspberry-lemon flavor and
though it was subtle and refreshing. My boyfriend also tried it and liked the
faint taste, but said it made his mouth feel dry instantly. We both agreed that
we liked that it was natural so we felt there was no harm in trying it and I
personally will do anything to reduce my stress. Overall it seems like a great
product and it’s effortless to add to my water during a rough day.
I
really wanted to like Davidson’s Organics Coconut Vanilla Dessert Tea since I
love vanilla and coconut, but the buttery flavor is just distasteful. I managed
to drink half a cup and still couldn’t get over the taste, so I gave it to my
boyfriend. He thought it smelled great and although he steers clear of anything
coconut the taste didn’t bother him. He liked that it’s caffeine free so he can
drink it before bed. Ultimately, I wouldn’t drink this again, but my non-tea
drinking boyfriend might go for this.
I tried FlapJacked Protein Smoothie Mix, and although I couldn’t bare the smell
I didn’t mind the taste at all. My boyfriend on the other hand really liked it.
He said the taste is much more like a real chocolate shake compared to other
products he’s used. However, one thing we could agree upon is that the shake
has the same chalky texture as every other one we’ve tried. We like the simple
ingredient list and the protein content seems on par with other products.
Overall we feel it would be an upgrade, but the price is extremely high for how
much product you get in one container.
Lastly I received Curoxen First Aid Ointment in my box being that it’s
the first-time hearing about the brand. I always like to try all-natural
remedies and this is the first alternative I have seen to typical ointments
that you find in the drugstore. My boyfriend got a few scrapes while working on
my truck this weekend so we got a chance to try it out. He said it doesn’t
sting a bit and the cream was easy to apply. So far, it seems to be healing
nicely, and will definitely be adding this to first aid kit.
As always you can find individual links to the products by clicking the titles!
