Are you trying to improve your health?  Get more fit?

This month the BuluBox has curated a novel feel good discovery box full of healthy goodies just for us.  You have to keep reading to get the full scoop!



Each month you can look forward to a new mix of products for both women and men, including vitamins, weight loss, sports nutrition, protein, diet, energy, detox, digestion, sexual health, herbs, natural remedies, endurance and more.

There are two kinds of Bulu Boxes to choose from and both of them are healthy subscription boxes that you will just love. 


Bulu Box-This is the box that I subscribe to....It is the first and only vitamin and supplement sample box out there.  Each box includes a sampling of vitamins and supplements from different areas of health. Each box contains 4 to 5 premium samples (some are bigger than others as you will see!) plus lifestyle extras sometimes. There is good stuff in every box to discover and enjoy.

Bulu Box Weight Loss: This box is the first and only weight loss and nutrition box. They designed it with the specific goal of weight loss in mind. Each box contains 4 to 5 premium weight loss items such as vitamin and supplement samples, fitness gear and healthy eating tools. These are products to help you succeed with weight loss.


 I know you want to see what was in my specially curated Bulu Box so no more delays:  here it is.  The big scoop! This month's BuluBox, like every box comes with a card (below) that explains more details about the samples and gives you the prices for the full size products.


Each box also comes with a My Sample Journal. You can keep notes for yourself and also submit your feedback and earn points towards products you like from your Bulu Box!  Easy and fun.


BuluBox is not stingy when it comes to products.  There is always enough to get a real feel for the products.  Some items are full size and others are sample sizes. 


Who doesn't know about Paleo products these days? I have heard tons about them but never tried one so I was interested to see how the WELL Food Company Paleo Cookie tasted.  The Double Chocolate Chip 'Cave' Paleo cookie tasted great. I don't know if this fits the Paleo Diet but I would crumble it up in a plain Greek yogurt or into low-fat cottage cheese for an afternoon snack. It is dairy, gluten, grain and lactose free which is surprising because it tastes great. I am interested in checking out the other flavors because this one is really yummy. 19.99/6 cookies


The next item in the box is from Barlean's and it is their CoQ10 Swirl in Island Fruit. I love Barlean's products and I have used a few of them. This CoQ10 Swirl tasted good like a smoothie and I like the powerhouse of CoQ10 that it delivers in a natural formula. I like to try to take C0Q10 most days because I feel like it really supports my heart health. It tastes great so it is a good one to try. 35.99/16 oz 


I am always in a huge rush especially in the morning so sometimes I will throw down a smoothie and just call it breakfast along with some coffee. A girl has to do what she has to do to get her nutrition in her body. A small sample of biPro Instant Whey Protein Isolate Supplement was tucked in my box too. This is an all natural whey protein with zero carbs if that is a concern. There is no fat in there and it is sugar free. This obviously has no taste (it is unflavored) but it is perfect to add into your smoothie and you can sweeten the whole thing with a frozen banana like I do. Helps to build and maintain good muscles and recover after a blasting workout.  As I said, perfect for busy days and it keeps you going with lots of protein. 17.45/50 servings


I am always seeking energy but I try not to rely on anything bad for me. Okay, I will have a cup of coffee in the morning but who wants to keep drinking that stuff all day long. EVOPak Energy Chews are another option that is chock full of anti-oxidants, B Vitamins, electrolytes and a touch of caffeine and Ginkgo boloba. This is an option that you can throw in your purse for a little afternoon energy without having to run into the nearest coffee shop and wait in that darn line. The berry flavor tastes great so I  enjoyed it and it perked me up so I could keep working without feeling tired. Just 20 kcals and 3G sugar too. 32.99/6 packs  


Turmeric has been a hottie supplement option for a few years now. You don't know about this secret yet?  Trust me. My mom loves to use it and swears by it for her back. These tabs are so much neater than the powder! I love the idea of the anti-inflammatory support and the fact that this is 95% pure curcuminoid in yourtheary Turmeric Advanced Perfect with a glass of warm low-fat milk to maximize the effect. My mom has gotten some real relief from using turmeric and I think I will pick some of this convenient one up for her. 29.99/120 tabs



Smarty Pants Adult Multi-vitamin Gummies were included in my Bulu Box too. I like that these have no added sugar and include eco-friendly Omega 3 in the formula as well as Vitamin D3. They even added some fiber too. This is a winning idea to get all this in one gummy formula. Up to now I take so many separate tablets and gummies I would love to use this all in one formula. It tastes great and is available in a full size formula. $47.95/30 servings


I try so heard to boost my immunity in the fall and winter especially so I was interested in a tiny samples I received of Nuvua Cafe.  It is loaded with ingredients like ECGC, Ganoderma Extract and pomegranate. It can even keep those cravings at bay in addition to supporting your immune system. $32.99/30 sachets

Exceptional Sheets 900 gram Egyptian Cotton 2-Piece Bath Towel Review #eluxurysupply



I love to take baths in the evening before bed. When I get out, I want to wrap myself in a big, fluffy towel. I noticed right away how thick and plush these Egyptian Cotton towel were. I always thought I bought luxury towels from the triple B bath store and they were not cheap but they really don't compare to these towels.  What an unbelievable difference  in quality. These towels are on par with ones from five star hotels I have stayed in over the years from Rome to NYC. 

These towels are very thick, plush and huge.  Definitely larger than my standard towels.  They are big enough for both me and the kids.  It is nice to think about especially with the fall chill approaching. 


You can really see and feel the difference with these towels. They are very plush compared my current towels.

I really love with these Egyptian Cotton towels. I have only seen and experienced towels of this quality in luxury hotels.  The ones I have are Forest but t
he towels come in White, Cream, Black, Chocolate, Light Blue, Navy Blue, Plum, Red, Rust, Toast, Charcoal, Forest Green, Stone, Latte, Purple, Sea Foam, Teal and Tea Rose so you can choose the best color for your decor. 





You can also find the matching hand towels and wash cloths to complete your collection.  You can pick these beautiful Egyptian Cotton towels up conveniently on Amazon which makes shopping easy.

Soothie Suckers Herbal Ice Pops Perfect for Sick Kiddos (or grownups!) Review + Giveaway #SoothieSuckers


Always check with your physician before starting any supplement product and specifically SoothieSuckers. These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Consult your healthcare professional prior to use if you are pregnant, nursing, taking any medication or have a medical condition.  

It just stinks when the kids are sick. Sore throats are the worst too.  They just are so miserable and you keep trying to come up with ways to get them hydrated.  It can be a challenge for the most creative super mom. Well, something really great has just come along to help out to worn-out nurse mama with the sick kiddos. Soothie Suckers are the cool way to feel better naturally! They are truly only all-natural herbal supplement ice pop.
It is currently available in two delicious formulations: oranged flavored Immune Support  and grape flavored Nasal Support.  Soothie Suckers are wonderful because the kids can enjoy them frozen like a regular ice pop or they can even be consumed as a liquid if they prefer.



Think about how convenient and useful these Soothie Suckers Herbal Ice Pops are for any mama. They are pre-measured  in perfectly sized 1 oz. pouches.  You can stash them in your purse or in a travel bag perfect for weekends away and totally portable for flights, trips and everyday activities. Soothie Suckers Herbal Ice Pops contains certified organic or wild-crafted herbal extracts too. I have to tell you both of the varieties are really delicious, and I love that they are made with all-natural fruit flavors.  My child gave the thumbs up to both of them. Even better, no worries about artificial flavors, high fructose corn syrup or even alcohol because none of that stuff is in there. This is a product that was created for kids and loved by adults and tots alike.



I know you haven't seen anything like this in the local stores because I sure hadn't either. I wish I had thought of it because I know every time I bought the commercial ones with the dyes and chemicals I always felt so guilty but I was desperate to get any kind of hydration in to my little one when I was sick. Those ones out there up until now were so full of artificial flavors, colors and more chemicals than I wanted to even bring in my house. What could you do though? I know you were just like me and just did it but reluctantly because the options were limited. If you have those science experiments like I did, you can just toss them out. Now you have a great option. Soothie Suckers  Herbal Ice Pops taste yummy and provide the hydration you need for your little ones. As I always emphasize, please check with your health care practitioner or pediatrician as well. You can find Soothie Suckers Herbal Ice Pops online right on the company website to save you energy and money too. Soothie Suckers Herbal Ice Pops is also offering my readers $2.00 off when you use the code HEALTHYFUN through 12/31/14.
