Ecocentric Mom is a subscription box that sends a smattering of eco-friendly goodies for pregnancy, mom, or mom and baby. If you haven’t seen my previous posts about it, let me tell you that this is my favorite box because it’s fun, I love being surprised, and most of all, it introduces me to products that I may have previously been unaware of. The way that I’ll find myself going into a “crunchy” group to ask for recommendations for a product, Ecocentric Mom sends me all of these things to try. It’s like a physical answer to the Facebook post, “Do you know of a natural brand for…?”
This month’s box was a collection of their fellow 1% For the Planet companies. These companies have, just like Ecocentric Mom, pledged to give 1% of their sales to environmental-related charities! So not only are you helping the environment by using the eco-friendly products but you’re also part of a bigger picture! Are you allowed to just draw a heart as part of a review? I really just want to draw a big huge heart, that is how much I love Ecocentric Mom and what they stand for. But enough of the mushy stuff. I want to tell you what was in my Ecocentric Mom and Baby box this month!
GoodLight Natural Birthday Candles
Birthday candles are going into food you’re going to eat, it matters what they’re made of and it matters what’s coming off of them when you light them. GoodLight Natural Candles are paraffin-free candles, made with 100% palm wax and pure cotton wicks. They contribute to the 1% For the Planet organizations that protect rainforests and endangered wildlife. The candles themselves are rainbow colored, very beautiful colors. We used them for my mommy’s birthday and she thought they were pretty! While they were used no differently than the average candle, the impact behind them is huge. I can confidently say that I will only use GoodLight Natural Candles from here on out because…why not?

I have to admit that I’d never tried chia seeds before Mamma Chia and I was nervous. With a flavor title of Cherry Beet, I had no idea what to expect. I don’t think I’ve ever had a beet either! It was really delicious! My four year old wanted to have a little taste and she agreed about just how tasty it was! I’m going to be looking into more Mamma Chia products because they’re nutrient-rich, organic foods and beverages and they have a great taste! The Chia Squeeze is good for on-the-go because it contains 1000-mg of Omega-3s, protein, and fiber!

We’re a puppet family! Okay, my husband isn’t [yet] but the rest of us are. I own so many puppets from before I even had kids and love to do our own puppet shows. These finger puppets are handmade by a number of artist collectives from the rural areas of the Peruvian high-plains! They are ethically sourced and practice fair-trade principles, striving to help these artisans extend their product reach. There are so many adorable designs and their mission is awesome!

Oh my that finger puppet is too adorable! And those candles, we need them anyway might as well choose a brand that helps the environment.

Im especially intrigued by the lip balm and skin oil. i just love skin products, but it is so hard to find good ones.
Everything organic, lovely! Nice ideas really.
