TheVeganKind Beauty Box #8
As soon as I opened the cap, the whiff of the lavender within this Vitala Spa Chakra Balancing Compassion Bath and Body Oil embodied me. Once I had a dislike for lavender and now I enjoy it's calming benefits, I'm going to be including this oil within my Abhyanga (self massage) routine.
This Figs & Rouge evAcalm Perfect Calm Moisture+ AM PM Cream has been designed specifically for use on dehydrated and sensitive skin, reducing redness thanks to the blue daisy extract it's effective as an inflammatory. I think if I had any irritated skin days I would use this, I tend to not wear much make-up especially when my face is irritated I like it to heal, so this will be one to definitely try.
In the 5th TVK box there was an concealer / eyeshadow brush by Spectrum Collections, this month it's the Spectrum Collections Tapered Finishing Brush , I still stand by how amazingly soft this brush is, it goes to show synthetic isn't all bad. Being completely vegan and cruelty free. I love a brush like this for powders. I definitely need to invest in a collection of these brushes - faultless.
For how many years have I said, I must try a konjac sponge? I keep reading the benefits and I don't know why it's taken me so long, so imagine the delight when I saw the The Konjac Sponge Company French Clay Facial Puff Sponge in the box this month, I'm excited to use this, deep cleanse, exfoliating, detoxify sponge. You'll definitely be seeing a review on this because it's been a long time coming me trying and seeing how I get on with this one.
Weleda Almond Sensitive Skin Travel Size Body Wash & Travel Size Hand Cream, these truly are travel size 20ml & 10ml, so small and handy to pop into a bag, Weleda is a brand I'm fond of, their skin food? Hello! I don't even really suffer from dry skin but I use it on my normal/oily skin. This is from their sensitive range and I can't get enough of the scent, can smell the almond it's sweet and heavenly. The range helps to protect the body and hands from irritated skin by soothing them whenever needed, with shea butter and pH balanced the wash certainly will not dry out the skin. The hand cream, is very tiny, possibly a lot may not need to be used but it's certainly a sample that you could use to see if your hands love enough to buy - hand creams important y'all, don't you think?
This says for mature/dry skin Shelia's Natural Products Face Cream is one that'll ease and clam symptoms of dermatological issues. Starflower, Safflower and Hempseed oils help to make up this cream, easily absorbing and beneficial for those dealing with skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and acne.
This month's box, wasn't bad at all. I loved to see the brush, sponge and oil. I love Weleda so it's nice to try something else from the range especially as it smelt gorgeous, shame the samples aren't bigger but really I can't complain overall.

I've never tried one of these beauty boxes before, i do like the idea of there being a vegan one x
ReplyDeleteIt's good, there's plenty of different subscription boxes out now x
DeleteVegan friendly is so good. I work in retail and I am always asked if I know of any vegan skin products. This box looks lovely and is perfect for travelling. I might need to start trying these boxes
ReplyDeleteTotally agree, they are travel friendly. I could imagine it's becoming popular to have vegan skin products especially as they're natural.
DeleteThis. is. amazing! I have been tempted to go Vegan for awhile, but I am hesitant to find replacements to what I already use. Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteYes, it can be difficult for some and added work to find replacements for loved products but there's some amazing products out there!
DeleteWhat a great idea a vegan friendly box is, very interested to give this a go x
ReplyDeleteYes it is and going strong and getting more popular x
DeleteThese brands are all new to me but I can easily be seduced by a lavender scented oil
ReplyDeleteOh isn't it heavenly and calming, I've warmed so much to lavender over the years.
Deletethis looks amazing i would love to give this a try
ReplyDeleteIt's a good subscription especially for natural and vegan products!
DeleteWhat a great box. The Spectrum brushes are just absolutely beautiful, I've never heard of Konjac sponges before so I'm going to have a nose at those now
ReplyDeleteDefinitely do, they have different clays for skin benefits. Spectrum brushes are gorgeous, so soft.
DeleteI have been meaning to try this box, it sounds fab.
ReplyDeleteIt's a really good box, can never complain about it, look forward to seeing if you try the box.
DeleteThis look amazing!I love the idea of a vegan beauty box. xx
ReplyDeletewww.annanuttall.com
It's good, so many boxes out there now but this one is certainly fulfilling the vegan / natural needs xo
DeleteIt looks like a great beauty box. I might treat myself!
ReplyDeleteI hope you do, you won't be disappointed.
DeleteI don't even think I've heard of most of these brands never mind tried them x
ReplyDeleteAw, weleda is a good brand to try, highly recommend them x
DeleteWeleda is brilliant but it is a shame as you said that the samples were not bigger. The brush looked good though.
ReplyDeleteThey are, it's an amazing brand. Yes it is a shame but surprisingly the body wash is still going as small as it is.
Deletevegan friendly beauty sounds fab. I'd have not thought of that. I'd love to try some samples too.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's definitely filled a gap in the box subscription market.
DeleteIt's awesome that you were able to try that sponge because of this box. I've never tried one either!
ReplyDeleteVery fortunate. It's been on my radar for such a long time.
DeleteThis is such a great way to get to try a range of vegan friendly products!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree. I love to find and try new brands thanks to TheVeganKind.
DeleteThis sounds like a great box! My friend Claire would love this! x
ReplyDeleteI hope you pass this one to her and she manages to try the box :) x
DeleteLove the sound of this box! The spectrum brush is one of my favourites xx
ReplyDeleteMine too, they're such great brushes I need to get some more xo
DeleteI love the idea of this beauty box! I haven't yet tried one but inreally ought to! The products you get seem great what a good idea to try vegan friendly products!
ReplyDeleteIt's true and although it's called the vegan beauty box, you don't have to lead that diet to be into natural products x
DeleteI have some friends who get the vegan kind boxes and they've all raved about it. I've followed karris the owner for ages so it's great to see her business doing so well!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it! I remember when they first launched! It's grown so much and Karris and her family are so lovely and positive.
DeleteThis sounds like a fab box. Would love to try it. I like the sound of it.
ReplyDeleteIt is a good box, I look forward to them, always a nice treat x
DeleteWhat a fantastic box! I absolutely LOVE Weleda products, they're SO good xxx
ReplyDeleteI know right, me too! Skin Food is my favourite xo
DeleteI've never heard of any of these products or brands before. I like the sound of that Weleda Almond hand cream and body wash, also got to love that they are travel size especially since I like to travel a lot :D
ReplyDeleteHaha, you'd definitely love the travel size, it's ideal that's for sure and lasts a good few washes surprisingly x
DeleteWhat a lovely beauty box. I didn't realise they did vegan ones that's great!
ReplyDeleteYeah, there's so many boxes and covering bases for different lifestyles now, quite a good thing.
DeleteI haven't tried any of these products but have switched all my skin care products to natural and vegan. I hope it makes a difference in my skin!
