Another box came through my door and I am here to share the contents with you!
Alchemy Organic Super Blend Sport Elixir RRP £7.99 for 40g
This travel/trial version is all vegan and boasts all essential amino acids, omega 3, iron and magnesium. Designed to be a post-exercise supplement, it can help to speed up the recovery. No added sugars, flavours or preservatives for those wanting only the purest form.
Ingredients: Pea protein, lucuma, wheatgrass, hemp protein, acai & camu camu
Note - the HBK FAQ section states the stage 1 item will be at least of £10 value which is not the case for this item.
Konjac Facial Puff Sponge French Pink Clay RRP £8.99
I am sure you have seen these sponges all over Internet. Indeed, there are many cheap version available from shops and online store. However, the Konjac Company is devoted to make their sponges by hand, ensuring pure natural ingredients without dyes, fragrances and additives. Konjac is a plant native to Asia which can be consumed or turned into a sponge. This is a great natural alternative to facial cloth which is also biodegradable. Average Konjac sponge will last for 3 months, then it would need to be replaced. When it comes out of the packaging, it is a hard and should not be used on the skin. Instead, soak the sponge in warm water and it will become soft and bouncy.
The version with pink clay is formulated for sensitive skin suffering from the effects of central heating or sun exposure. The range includes other sponges targeted at a range of skin types. The sponge can be used with a cleanser and I have found it can lather very well.
Resistance band, unbranded, unknown price.
Very lightweight and bendy, this resistance band is very easy to carry around. Can be used at home or to supplement the gym session. I will need to look up some good exercises involving a resistance band.
Cocofina Coconut Macaroon RRP £1.49 for 35g
It is vegan and it has coconut. That is enough for me to want it. Made from only 4 ingredients this organic bar is a great healthy snack.
Ingredients: Coconut (41%), Golden Syrup, Oats (contains gluten) (11%), Maltodextrin.
Tan Organic Self Tan Oil 25ml (RRP £19.72 for 100ml)
I love my pale skin. But my neck and my face cannot agree on a single colour hence finding a foundation which makes my face and neck look of the same shade is a real struggle. I have tried this low maintenance and super easy to apply tanning oil before and I can confirm it does not have an unpleasant smell (slight citrus-like smell). As with anything, starting with a little amount and applying frequently allows to get a gradual natural looking tan without streaks.
Ingredients: Propanediol, aqua, aloe barbadensis leaf juice, dihydroxyacetone, alcohol denat, borago officinalis (borage) seed oil, argania spinosa kernel oil, citrus sinesis (sweet orange) peel oil, gluconolactone & sodium benzoate, cellulose gum, decyl glucoside, caramel, d-limonene
Mahtay RRP £2.50 for 300ml (£12.50 for 5 bottles)
As a surprise item, I got Greenfrog Botanic Geranium and Peppermint Body Wash RRP £3.90 for 100ml
Made from gentle soapberries, nourishing aloe vera and refreshing peppermint, this handy sized body wash is great for popping into your gym bag.
Ingredients: Aqua (water), Potassium Cocoate, Lauryl Betaine, Coco-Glucoside, Sapindus Mukorossi Fruit Extract*, Glycerin, Xanthan Gum, Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Powder*, Parfum (Fragrance) : Pelargonium Graveolens (Geranium) Oil, Mentha Arvensis (Peppermint) oil, Levulinic Acid, Potassium Sorbate, Citric Acid. Citronellol**, Geraniol**, Hexyl Cinnamal**, Linalool**. *Certified Organic Ingredient **Naturally occurring within essential oils
The overall value of the box is over £29. I loved the surprised item and I am very happy all of the items in the box are vegan. Such a great little box!
