It's a One Year Blogiversary and a Popsugar Must Have Box Giveaway!

Bits and Boxes is turning one year old!  I had no idea when I started this blog that anyone would even read it.  I just was thinking it was a fun way to document my new subscription boxes and maybe get a few views or comments every once in awhile.

Instead, I've found great friends, fun readers and even more subscription boxes.  I'm not complaining either.  Those are all wonderful things!

All your views, comments and friendships have made this so much fun I just can't stop doing it.  I've had fun sharing my Korean beauty exploits with Memebox, showing off my snacking habits with Love With Food and OrangeGlad, prettying up my home with goodies from Popsugar and prancing in front of the TV with Fabfitfun workout DVDs!

Who Am I?

I feel like I'm generally a pretty relaxed, no nonsense type of reviewer.  I like getting a good deal and I love getting good skincare.  I am honest with a slight hint of riduculaise, I'm terrible with makeup but that doesn't stop me from using it or trying the smokey eye over and over with predictably awful results.  I still like socks, the fuzzier the better and I'll never say no to a good fantasy/science fiction book and a mug of tea.

I like to say I robbed the cradle when I married a handsome guy five years younger than myself.  He doesn't mind. He said that was okay, he robbed the grave.  Haha!!  I'm 37 and while we have no children, we do have two rat terriers who are lavished with subscription boxes of their own.  I have a garden that I've spent laborious hours in and am very proud of even though it's not looking quite like I want it to.

I have cool, combination skin with pink undertones.  I've got issues with redness that I'm working on fixing with my forays into skincare.  My hair is stick straight, long and quite thin. I hate getting hair product in my boxes but I'm realizing volumizing sprays can work wonders.  Dry shampoo hates me, no matter what I try.  I like to dye my hair dark shades of red and royal blue might be my favorite color.

I love subscription boxes and trying new things I find inside of them.  I'm an enabling type and love to get coupons to give everyone a deal on things I think are pretty great.  I'm an amateur ingredient fiend especially since I have an allergy to lavender so I'm constantly analyzing the products I receive. You'll find that I get really excited when I find something new with ingredients scientifically proven to have benefits.

But enough about me!!  I have a present for YOU!

In honor of my love for Popsugar, I am giving away TWO Popsugar boxes!!

One winner will receive the March 2015 Box (unless it sells out, then you'll get April).  Value: $40 UPDATE: March has sold out so now you'll get the April box! Waaah!!  Who can wait that long?!

One winner will receive the FEBRUARY 2015 Popsugar box!  I got an extra one just for this purpose! Value: $40  You can see the contents of the February box in my post here.

There will be two winners chosen and the boxes will randomly be awarded.  This particular giveaway is only available to the USA but International Readers keep watch for an upcoming giveaway that will include International shipping!
