Goddess Provisions Review: April 2016


This month's Goddess Provisions was exciting! A little after each box is sent out, they send you an email with a survey. Once you complete the survey you're put in a draw to win a free box. I won this month's box for free! I'm so appreciative and overjoyed, I had never won anything online before. Now on to the amazing box.

This month's theme was Free Spirited. Being Spirited Lotus, it couldn't be more fitting. The first thing I checked for was which crystal I received. You could've gotten a Fluorite wand or an Amethyst cluster. I was bummed it was Amethyst, as I've been receiving A LOT of them recently. However, the universe has spoken. It doesn't hurt that I love Amethyst too.

The next intriguing item was the Good Medicine Beauty Lab "Free" Botanical perfume. I'm not a huge fan but it's addictive. I think it's the tobacco that might be throwing me off. It's a deep, warm smell: "rich vanilla, blonde tobacco, rosewood, cinnamon, and ginger." My natural perfume collection has been growing ever since I've subscribed to Goddess Provisions.

So has my boyfriend's addiction to wanting to try all the goodies they send. This time it's the Laughing Giraffe Organics Matcha Snakaroons. I was surprised at how oily they were (as you can tell from the picture) but realized it must be the goodness of the coconut oil. To be honest, the texture and taste is like a healthy version of the chocolate bar Bounty. I wish they had more of a rich matcha flavour. The ingredients are quite clean, so you don't have to feel guilty about gobbling these bad boys up.



The next lifestyle item was a cork and faux leather card holder from Pixie Mood. It's  beautiful design, there were many different kinds you could have gotten. I love this vivid blue one, on the inside it's a pretty purple! Practical yet stylish to hold all your important cards. Love!

Last but not least was what I was really hoping I got. The Eye of Horus Cosmetics liquid eyeliner. I've worn it half this week and love it more than my Zuzu Luxe one. It's easy to apply, remove, and it lasts all day too. The fine, felt tip let's you draw lines with ease and is richly pigmented. Which Goddess wouldn't want to line their eyes with an Egyptian inspired liner? You could've received this liner or the 100 Percent Pure one. I've tried that one... but I'm not a huge fan of it. It was much harder to take off and I prefer the ease of a pen than a pot. It's still an amazing liner because of the ingredients alone.

Overall, I really enjoyed this month's Free Spirit box. Almost everything took me out of my comfort zone. This box is a monthly reminder for me to do my inner work and go on a mini spiritual retreat. A huge thank you to Goddess Provisions for choosing me to be this month's winner. You guys are the best!

What are your thoughts on this month's box? What are some things that make you feel free spirited?
