Petit Vour, who kindly sent me this box to review, is a monthly subscription box of cruelty-free beauty products, hand-picked from businesses that align quality with progressive standards.  The majority of the products they include are from brands I didn’t even know existed and always has me amazed by their finds.

Petit Vour ships via USPS First Class Mail and took a few days to arrive.  B helped me take a few pictures today and was like do I really need to take a picture of the outside of the box?  Umm, yes B!  What if someone has never seen the box before and wants to know?  I know a lot of it is repetitive if you are reading from month to month, however, but if you are reading it for the first time, hopefully it’s helpful.

I didn’t recognize anything in the first look.  While I do like receiving things I know and love, subscription boxes (for me) are also about discovering new things.

The January 2014 Petit Vour theme is “Read, Set, Glow!” and is described as your cure-all for winter skin blues.  The box includes included the following items to make you feel soothed, refreshed and ready to embrace your best year ever:

~Beauty Without Cruelty Mascara ($24.95):  This is a no-clump natural mascara that is designed to “feather” your lashes. I still have some mascara I need to use up so I didn’t want to crack into this (well I wanted to, but thought it would be better not to have 20 mascaras open at one), but it’s next on my to use list.

~Le Beurre Shop Beurre Shea Butter Body Cream ($15):  This is described as frosting like and I totally agree.  It’s super rich, smells great and I am planning on slathering it on my hands and feet every night before bed!

~Bella Pelle Chiara Polish ($12):  This smells like something super familiar, but I can’t place it.   It’s not super smelly, but it’s something.  Anyway, I tested it out quick and it left my skin nice and soft.

~Ellovi Lip Butter ($5): Love lip balms and I feel like you can never have enough!  Oddly, I have a vegan lip balm in the same shape as this, but it’s from a totally different brand.  I feel like the shape of it gets more on at a time?  And the balm itself is nice.  Not clumpy and it smells good.

All totaled, the January Petit Vour box had a value of $56.95 which is insane considering that the box itself is only $15/month!  I have no idea how they do it (their box values are typically at least double the cost), but they do.  They also offer a rewards program and a referral program and offer discounts on some of the products in the box each month so you can earn free boxes!
