Good Being box is a natural and organic beauty box. Each month you'll receive a box somewhat customized to your beauty profile. (This is a box that will have some variation between subscribers.)

My Subscription Addiction paid for this box. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).

GoodBeing-018

The Subscription Box: GoodeBeing Box

The Cost: $21 a month

The Products: Eco-friendly beauty and wellness products.

Ships to: US only.

GoodBeing-027

Every box comes with cards detailing each product.

GoodBeing-021

Hand Dyed Boho Chic Pouch - Value $38

This is an exclusive design made for Good Being subscribers! I love the shibori dying technique, and the blue and white fabric contrast beautifully with the bright pink lining:

GoodBeing-023

And Tribe Alive also follows fair trade practices!

GoodBeing-019

EO Organic Deodorant Wipe - Value $2

EO is a great natural and organic brand that is reasonably priced, too. (I LOVE their lotions!) This deodorant wipe is Tea Tree scented, and great for a quick refresh.

GoodBeing-036

Zatik Chamomile Blue Cornflower Facial Mist - FULL SIZE! Value $20

This facial mist is made with all organic ingredients. I'm not sure I'm loving the cornflower scent, but otherwise, this is a refreshing mist.

GoodBeing-032

Moondani Natural Breath Mist – Value $11.99

Breath spray that looks like the fanciest travel perfume! This is an unsweetened, natural breath spray, so it gets the job done and doesn’t add any extra sugar!

GoodBeing-031

Folium Medica Athlete Potion - .5 oz Value $21

The name and description of this product are interesting:

Athlete Potion is designed to fight exposure to various irritants and allergens during physical activity. Resolves contact dermatitis due to mechanical stress, sports gear friction, increased sweating and temperature.

It's a lightweight oil that designed for sore muscles. The formula is a blend of many essential oils, and it has a natural, earthy scent.

This product works for me as a standard oil for dry skin, but it really isn't a fit for me. I think it is time to fill out my beauty profile on Good Being - I should get more personalized results that way.

 

Verdict: This box has a value of about $93. I think that is great for a $21 natural beauty box. Not every product is a perfect match for me, but I think that may be more of my fault for not filling out my profile yet, than Good Being's fault. And the bag alone is worth at least $21 to me, so everything else just feels like extra this month.

What do you think of the August Good Being Box? Which products did you receive?

I may cancel my sephora play and just get this box. The value and products are so much better for 10 more bucks. I wish there was more recent box reviews though. I wonder if they sell single boxes.. I’ll check it out.

I just ordered Good Being after being subscribed to Petit Vour. Do you like Good Being or Petit Vour better? Have received my first Good Being yet!

I subscribe to both, and I prefer Goodbeing, mostly because they are more customized to your profile, and you can pick two of your items. I like their variety as well, too.

I had this for several months–it was my first sub! They have lots of nice , newer brands, and the info cards are great for gifting items. Primarily skin care products with friendly customer service. My only complaint is despite filling out the profile and indicating my skin is on the oily side, I would get a lot of dry skin products. Otherwise great value and affordable price point.

Definitely fill out that profile Liz! 🙂 Goodbeing is really great about sending products that fit your profile. I have never received a type of product that I listed I didn’t want. They kind of remind me of Beauty DNA & Wantable in that respect.

My variation included the makeup bag, deoderant wipes (in Lavender), Andalou sheet mask, Zatik serum (1.7oz!), and a lipstick from Honey Bee Gardens (I love the packaging).

I’m so glad to see you’ve subscribed! I got the Zatik passionfruit cacao lotion, and it’s really phenomenal. I’ve never received anything from this brand before, and it’s a great find!

Do you mean $83 instead of $33 for total RV?
