The Natural Beauty Box Feb 2013

 My February TNBB arrived. Look at the very colourful party bag. Now I normally love my Natural Beauty Boxes. But this was was just a middle of the road one for me. And I'm pretty sure I know which products' fault it is! Allow me to explain

Going left to right:

Top

Pharmacopia Verbana Everyday Bar Soap: A cleansing bar made with organic shea butter.

Scentuals Body Care 100% Natural Soap sample

Now I normally like soap samples but 2 in one box? Hmmm

Bottom: These two kinda ruined the box for me.

Foil samples of Tao of Man Daily Skin Defense and Jadience Herbal Formulas Purifying Toner. I clearly remember TNBB stating that foil samples would only be included as extras and not included in the 10-15 sample count. I'm sure these products will be dandy but I would have loved a bigger sample of the toner to try. :(

 Top:
Wine Delights Beer Natural Nourishing and Extra Hydrating Shampoo: it doesn't actually smell like beer, my husband and I agreed.

Beauty Without Cruelty Cleanser/Body Lotion: This sample is actually quite generous.

Bottom:
Selma Valentine Whipped Body Butter: Never tired of these :)

Kynk Naturals In The Raw Shea Butter

Overall Beauty Minerals eyeshadow sample in Treasure

Just Pure Minerals Blush sample in Girly Pink
These two will also get used for sure.

So not counting the 2 foil samples, that makes 8 samples. That's below their target guarantee of 10 samples per box. What the heck? I did not feel this box warranted a price increase. I understand that shipping prices go up every year, but service should not go down. I plan to contact TNBB about the foil samples soon as I feel they should not have been included in this month's sample count. Another hiccup. Come on TNBB! I'm rooting for you!
