Monthly Box: Petit Vour--November

Nothing brings me more joy then the arrival of beautiful things. Subscription boxes have been all the range the last few years and I have tried them all, I'm what you call an expert in this field ;) Birchbox, Glossybox, EcoEmi, Ipsy, Julep and Goodebox are a few that I've used in the last few years, however it narrowed down to Birchbox and Glossybox. When I decided to go cruelty-free I stopped them both and researched what was out there. I ended up trailing Petit Vour and Beauty Cuts, both vegan boxes, and I cannot be happier with the quality and selection of products in these boxes. 

Here's a bit about Petit Vour from their founder, Madelina Alcott.



"At Petit Vour we have a strong belief that kindness should be precedent to luxury and beauty. No animal should suffer for the sake of beauty.
As a beauty enthusiast myself, I found it frustrating that there wasn't a collective online source where I could get products that met my standards, both ethically and structurally. I wanted to be able to see all of the top cruelty-free brands laid out in front of me. Instead I'd spend hours scouring through forums and various sites to find all of my options. Many of the animal-free products weren't easily accessible except for online, which made shopping risky and money draining for the disappointments along the way. I'm a shopper who likes to get a feel for what I'm purchasing. Petit Vour is risk-free, exciting and allows you to try before you buy. You decide if the product is right for you and worth the upgrade.
I'm thrilled to share my years of research and application with you. Our goal at Petit Vour is to make your shopping fun and effortless and to let you sample new cruelty-free products -- hidden gems, makeup artist-approved and everything in between. We want to be a helpful service, to consumers as well as business owners and we also want to promote our way of living, because we believe compassion enhances all of our passions, whether it be teaching, composing, cooking or walking the runway. Be bold. Be kind."

Size: 2 out of 5 products were full size. 
Products: I am very pleased with this months box. I've been trying to find more natural perfume and I usually get one sample from boxes, but to have the whole ranged sampled is stellar. The skincare samples I usually don't use, instead I keep them in a drawer that guest can use when they come to visit over night. I am interested in the eye cream since I'm running out of mine. The Raw Snacks Bar is the highlight of the box for me. As a college student, I don't have time to always prepare meals and its great to find healthy snack bars that aren't filled with sugar, dyes, etc. 
Value: For the $15.00 monthly box, the grand total of this month was $58.95. Definitely a fantastic value.
