Vegan Cuts beauty box subscription – two years on

//  by 

Last week I was lamenting to a friend that I can't believe it's June already. When I began writing May's Vegan Cuts beauty box review I realized it's been two years since I took the plunge and subscribed to Vegan Cuts. Holy cow. So what I thought I'd do along with the review today is share ways in which having a subscription to the vegan beauty box has enriched my life. DISCLAIMER: This post may contain affiliate links, which means that if you click on one of the product links, I’ll receive a …

Ayurvedic Skin Care products in the April Beauty Box

//  by 

I shared on instagram this weekend the unboxing of the April Vegan Cuts beauty box and it occurred to me I didn't post on my blog with the amazing products I got this month. April was another great month as I got some really fun beauty, skincare and makeup products to add to my stash. As much as I like 99% of the products I get in the Vegan Cuts beauty box, I've had a few that have really caught my attention. This month it's finding Ayurvedic Skin Care products.

Cruelty free beauty box unboxing – Feb 2017

//  by 

Thanks to Valentine's Day everyone thinks of February as a month of love. Love for your spouse, partner, kids, best friend, teacher, students. pets and basically others. However most of us forget the one person we should love the most... OURSELVES. If you really love yourself you'll care about the food you eat and the products you use on your face. It's always amazing to me that some people are so good about eating healthy organic food, yet covering their skin (the body's biggest organ) in …

Subscription box that’s beauty without cruelty

//  by 

Back in 2015 when I decided to invest in a beauty subscription box I had so many options open to me. Seriously, if you haven't noticed there are TONS of these suckers now. A few months prior to signing up my subscription box I'd taken part in an influencer promotion. Receiving a box full of health & skincare goodies, and on opening realizing that I couldn't use 2/3 of them as they weren't vegan or cruelty free. I needed something in the vegan niche. All the products in the subscription box …

Cruelty-Free beauty and skin care subscription box

//  by 

In June 2013 I became 100% cruelty-free with my diet by becoming a Vegan. Eighteen months ago it just became apparent to me that I needed to make the switch to cruelty-free skin care, hair care and beauty too. Why? I realized that if I'm being conscious of what I'm putting IN my body, I need to be equally as conscious of what I'm putting ON my body. Did you know the skin is the body's biggest organ? Yep everything you put on your skin gets absorbed. So really it's better to NOT use damaging …

Each month I get a Vegan Beauty Box from Vegan Cuts filled with vegan, and cruelty free cosmetics and skin care. I've blogged about them before here, and pretty much love their subscription service.

Rather than return it, they suggested I simply give it to a friend... which could be YOU! Yep, I decided that I'd do a blog giveaway. But wait, February box? This is March Di! Well I then …

Vegan Cuts Beauty Box – November box review

//  by 

Hello cruelty free friends! As I review the November Vegan Cuts Beauty Box I want to share my beauty box epiphany I had recently. Back when I was scrapbooking and cardmaking, I'd buy all these fabulous products then save them for "the perfect project" and yep, you guessed it, that project never came along. So I amassed more and more stuff. Well turns out I was doing the same with the Vegan Cuts Beauty Box products! "Oh can't use that eyeshadow, got to wait for till I finish using this old one", …
