Disclosure: I received a Bulu Box for free through my association with Fitapproach (SweatPink). All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I love subscription boxes. I have tried tons of them, mostly beauty related and I have been getting both Birchbox & Glossybox monthly for the past few years. I love the idea of getting to try new things every month so when I had the opportunity to try Bulu Box I jumped on it.
Bulu Box gives you the chance to try 4 – 5 supplements, healthy snacks and/or weight loss products each month. And there are 2 different types of Bulu Boxes – Original and Weight Loss.
From the website:
Bulu Box Original: This box provides a well-rounded sampling of all things health and nutrition. Each box contains 4 to 5 premium samples such as sports nutrition, sleep, and healthy snacks. Plus lifestyle extras like gym gift cards or DVDs to cover all aspects of health!
Bulu Box Weight Loss: Designed specifically to help with the varying factors of weight loss, this box contains 4 to 5 premium weight loss items such as energy aids, healthy snacks, sleep aids and fat-burners. Plus bonus weight loss items like fitness gear and kitchen tools.
I didn’t have a choice of boxes and received the Weight Loss box. The 5 products I got to test were as follows: (descriptions from the info sheet provided by Bulu Box)
RUNA Tea: Powered by Guayusa, a native Amazonian tree leaf. Runa Teas provide as much caffeine as a cup of coffee and tice the antioxidants of green tea. Replace your calorie filled energy drinks with this tasty natural option.
Runa Tea is USDA Organic and Fair Trade Certified as well as Kosher
Simple Being Simple Diet: Simple Diet features an effective 4-part blend of ingredients such as Green Coffee Bean, African Mango, Acai and Resveratrol to promote fat burning, appetite suppression and boost metabolism.
Movit Energy Gummies: Movit Energy Gummies use power-boosting ingredients like guarana, CoQ10 and folic acid to combat fatigue and help you perform your best! Movit Energy Gummies contain just 60 calories per serving.
I received the Citrus Flavor.
Fusion Jerky: Fusion Jerky offers a unique, high protein flavor experience made using real chicken and nothing artificial. This delicious jerky option is gluten-free, minimally processed and 99% fat free. It also comes in beef, pork & turkey.
Made in the USA. I received the Lemon Pepper flavor.
Earth’s Care Anti-Itch Cream: Relieve pain and itching associated with skin irritations such as poison ivy, sunburn & minor cuts and scrapes. Earth’s Care Anti-Itch cream contains no artificial colors or fragrances and is petroleum free.
It includes Natural Camphor & Menthol.
It’s unfortunate that I didn’t get the Original box, for several reasons: 1) because I am not trying to lose weight and 2) I have a sensitivity to caffeine and other than coffee, tea and the occasional Coke I don’t use products with added caffeine.
So that being said, I wasn’t able to test 3 out of the 5 products I received because they included ingredients like Guayusa, guarna & other fat burning ingredients.
I did try the Fusion Jerky which was pretty yummy. I tend to be really picky and I don’t eat jerky normally so I wasn’t expecting to like this.
I also tried the anti-itch cream, immediately I could smell the menthol. It reminded me of a Bio Freeze/Icy Hot type of product. I had a little bit of itching around my knee from the scabs I got when falling during a few runs and it seemed to work to stop the itch.
Since I didn’t try the other products I can’t speak on them. However it is nice to see that there are more organic and natural products out there though versus diet products full of chemicals.
As with the other subscription boxes I’ve received there are months when I like more products than others, but it is still a great and inexpensive way to try new things. My suggestion would be just to try the box type that is more applicable to your life style. I would have preferred an original box.
The box sells for $10 a month and you can get a 3, 6 or 12 month subscription. T
