July 2015 Petit Vour Vegan Beauty Box Review
Happy Petit Vour Unboxing Day! I’m stoked to reveal all the über fab goodies in this month’s Petit Vour vegan beauty box! If you’re new to Petit Vour, it’s a monthly subscription box that comes loaded with samples (including full-sized ones) from fancy, vegan and cruelty-free brands (peep all my previous PV box reviews here). This goodie box is only $15 a month (HELLA good deal, especially considering this month’s box is valued at ~$45!) and includes free shipping in the U.S. ($23 for Canada). Pretty sweet, right?
July’s “Cruelty-Free Summer” Petit Vour Beauty Box, which was co-curated by Thoughtfully Magazine (a gorgeous mindful & vegan-friendly quarterly magazine), included the following non-toxic, squeaky clean, cruelty-free goodies:
Aila Nail Lacquer in Doolish* – First of all, this item is valued at $17 – already covers the price of this entire box and then some – BAM! It’s a suuuuuper pretty sunset coral that definitely has summer written all over it. I’m excited to rock Doolish for next week’s Mani Monday feature – gonna pair it with some nail bling, so stay tuned! Gotta love that this polish is 5-free, gluten-free, vegan & cruelty-free, and made in the USA, too.
Luxe de Mer Skincare Organic Rosewater Toner* – Please note that subscribers received either the Gentle Cleanser or Rosewater Toner in this month’s PV box. I’m stoked I received the toner because I literally ran out of toner a couple of days ago and have been wingin’ it with watered down apple cider vinegar (stanky but it works)! This rosewater toner is seriously perfection. I was afraid it was gonna smell obnoxiously rosy, but it was actually subtle and there were so many pretty scents going on at once – all quite lovely! Their organic toner is hydrating, anti-inflammatory & antiseptic. The witch hazel makes your skin feel tight while the rosewater helps stimulate blood circulation (key attributes for a kickass toner). I will definitely be buying more when my sample runs out. Ooh, and I love their glass packaging! I always give companies props for that because it’s the eco way to go, and I know that ish ain’t cheap.
Nubian Heritage’s Mango Butter* – Okay, I’m gonna go ahead and say this is the tastiest smelling body butter I’ve ever tried—and I’ve tried a TON, so that’s saying something. I know it’s mango butter, but smells like a frickin’ orangesicle that I wanna shove in my face over and over again. Yummmmmmmzz! It’s a bit firm, so rub it in the palms of your hands to soften it up before using. It won’t clog pores, so feel free to apply it evvvverywhere (and trust me, I do!). Only downside: I can’t wear this when I’m starving or in the mood for sweet treats (would be absolute torture). 😉
Routine De-Odor Cream – Firs off, Routine gets bonus points for puttin’ a bird on it. 😉 Unfortunately, I’m still taking a hiatus from basking soda-based deodorants as I recently developed a sensitivity out of nowhere (biggest womp, I feel robbed!). I can tell this deodoro is probably awesome. It looks and smells lovely… waaaaahhhh. 🙁 Peeps who were able to properly sample this, please comment below and tell me what you thought of it.

Overall impression: Dang, PV keeps killin’ it! Their boxes are consistently awesome (zero duds), and I continue to be in awe of their exquisite selections and amazing deals. Rockstar product in this month’s box was def Nubian Heritage’s organic mango butter… will be swooning over this one for awhile. ♥
