Product Review: February Conscious Box
In keeping with this month's motif, February's Conscious Box is filled with products that are sustainable, and ethical but centered around the theme of love. I appreciated the fact that prior to sending us the package, they sent us an email to inform us of the "intimate items" included in the box. They were clearly labeled and wrapped separately.
Good move Conscious Box!

Now, let's see what type of goodies are in this month's box for us to enjoy.
Want the recipe for this yummy, anti-oxidant filled, super healthy smoothie?

Items I enjoyed:
According to their clinical tests, this instant Hand Purified killed 99.99% of tested specimens, including, the Flu, MRSA (a nasty staph bacteria that has built up a resistance to the antibiotics doctors usually use to treat staph infections), E. Coli, Strep Pneumoniae (nasty bug that causes pneumonia).
The consistency was similar to a light, super absorbent creamy lotion, that gave off a mild citrusy scent. Not at all like the watery hand sanitizers available in the market today.
Moisturizing, non-toxic soaps with a social mission - clean the world. This company's goal is to remind us of the millions of people around the world who live under unsanitary conditions who are afflicted with preventable diseases such as diarrhea, malaria and typhoid. These diseases can be avoided by a simple act of washing with clean water and a simple bar soap.
Did you know that the common table salt is an industrial by-product, stripped by chemical processing of all elements except sodium and chloride? Yet the FDA Code 21CFR101.100(a)(3), DOES NOT REQUIRE their disclosure to consumers?
Himala salt is alll-natural, unrefined and with no additives. PLUS, it's on trend with this seasons pastel obsession on the runway.
In season and good for you? I think we're trending here...
Almonds, pecans,unsweetened coconut and pine nuts. That's it! Just five ingredients to help your sugar levels and protiens in check as you start off your busy day. Dense and packed with protein, I would imagine that you can pretty much have this on a bowl with fruit (as it is intended) or sprinkle this on top of salads, soups or...smoothies! I added a tablespoon of this crunchy goodness in my fruit smoothie and....VoilĂ !
I enjoyed a creamy, protein-packed, anti-oxidant filled delicious treat.
Comment below if you'd like a recipe breakdown.
Two birds in one stone? YES PLEASE! Each bite tasted of dates and chocolate with a hint of raspberry. It was rich and chewy with just enough flavor to satisfy my sweet tooth.
Sprinkle on top of home-made parfaits, chinese chicken salad, smoothies or just plain yogurt for a bit of texture.
YUM!
**WARNING**
