Verdict: I have been lucky enough to receive a few Nature’s Wellness Boxes over the past few months and I must say this is my favorite box of theirs yet! I do follow them on Facebook, so often I know more or less what types of items will be inside the box before I even receive it. Needless to say, I was so happy when I got the Dock & Bay Quick Dry Towel. This quick dry towel is awesome! It is huge, so soft and pink, my favorite colour! I love it! I see so many great uses for it. From camping, swimming lessons for the kids and for those few rare times when we go to the beach (there aren’t many beaches close by where we live). Another item that I couldn’t wait for was the routine natural deodorant. It is locally made from a company in my city and I have been lucky enough to try it multiple times over the last few years. This sample pack is exactly what I need. Everyone’s body reacts differently to deodorants, so this is the perfect opportunity to find my favorite scent that works best for my body. The value of this month’s box for me was worth every penny! I fell in love with a few new great items and was reacquainted with a familiar brand that I had forgotten how much I loved.

I loved that it included pampering products, as well as, some very practical and useful products too. My favorite products this month would be the face sunscreen and the beeswax wrap.

Each of these products was hand-picked and curated within this box with purpose. Our lives have been turned upside-down lately and these products provide some peace of mind knowing you don’t need to sacrifice your health to maintain cleanliness and don’t forget to take time for yourself and your own mental health.
