March Bulu Box Review


Alrighty, it's time for my Bulu Box review! I already posted my review of the weight loss version here. Why both boxes? Well, these were my first ever fitness boxes AND with the option of two different boxes I didn't know which would suit me best so I tried them both! Check out both reviews to see which one you like more too.



Bulu Box:
Type: Fitness Box
Cost: $10/month includes shipping
What is it?: Each month you will receive 4-5 premium samples selected to make you feel your best. These samples are a mix for men and women and include vitamins, energy, protein, digestion, weight loss, sleep help samples. You earn points for reviewing products and can spend those points on buying full-size products. Use my referral link and get a FREE Box.



Unboxing!





This info card's front picture is different from the Weight Loss card but the inside is the same! The info on the products varied a bit since they are actually different products but the back of the card was also the same.


$50 iTrain Gift Card: I called this an "extra" before since I don't include gift cards in values of boxes but this one is pretty good since you get to download workouts.


Redd Remedies' At Ease PM: If this looks similar to my previous review, that is because the Weight Loss Box also got a Redd Remedies product (trueENERGY). This Supplement is supposed to calm nervous tension at bedtime, promote healthy brain function, and promote restful sleep. That all sounds awesome to me, I'll be giving this a try for sure! Price: $0.52


Dream Water in Pineapple PM: This is a double item- as in both types of boxes received this. I'm glad I have a second one to try since other factors kind of blurred the results of the first bottle. Price: $3.75


Q Speed CoQ10: These two fast-melt orange-flavored tablets support heart health, enhance cellular energy production, and support exercise performance. They even put that they have published clinical data right on the packet which is always nice to see. I think the heart health part is really important- sometimes you can worry with supplements that give you a boost may be messing around with your heart-rate and such. Like I have said before, I'll give it a try. Price: $1.24


Prolab Quick Fire: Another duplicate from my weight loss box- that makes two items in both boxes and one item from the same brand, these boxes are pretty similar obviously. This doesn't need much explanation, it boosts your workout! I think I'll let CJ have one and I'll take the other one to try. Price: $1.10


Aero Shot Energy in Raspberry: Is it weird that when I first saw this, I thought it was some sort of black licorice nutrition chew? I didn't take a good look at it but all I saw a black stick. Anyway, this product is super interesting. It is an air-based shot of energy- giving you a powdered mix of B vitamins and caffeine. Energy anywhere. How crazy is this? I really want to to try this but I know this would come in super handy for CJ and his *work. Plus, it is "technically" his box. If this works we will scoop some up so he doesn't have to drink disgusting energy drinks at 4 in the morning. Price: $2.99


Verdict: This box totaled $9.60 NOT including the $50 gift card. At first, I forgot that the info card had prices and looked up items on my own and the value of the box WAS higher so I guess these are Bulu Box member prices. Even just at the $9.60 price, you are looking at a comparable price to the price of the box, and you are getting products picked for you, points for reviewing to go towards purchases, and extras (like the gift card). I think this box was worth the price (I did get mine free with a code though). I love that you can skip a month with Bulu Box and change from the regular box to the weight loss box and vice-versa. I was sold on sticking to the weight loss box but after going through these products, I think they might be better for our household. I could definitely use some sleeping help as well as a boost during the day and CJ would definitely take advantage of any energy boosters. Hard to choose between the two... either way I was happy with both boxes! Try one of them yourself by using my referral link to get a FREE box.



* CJ works for Chipotle IT and has to do overnight visits to stores to fix stuff, upgrade, etc. etc. He has to do most of that work when the stores are closed so sometimes he has to work way super early or into the late hours at night (like 2 am).

  1. I received an iTrain gift card in the February Beauty Box 5 and it's great! No purchase required. I was able to purchase a 6 week total body make over program for $30 and download it to itunes for use on my iPad. Still have $20 left to get some other videos.
