Posted on May 10, 2013 in Food

This giveaway is now CLOSED.

Oh man, do I have a fun giveaway for you guys today! Have you ever heard of Bestowed? They are subscription based service, kinda like Birchbox, but instead of beauty products, the Bestowed box is chock full healthy, good-for-you food. And it gets delivered to your door every month. Is this a dream?

The nice people at Bestowed offered to send me a box, and I have to be honest, I wasn’t expecting much. So often, these sample boxes are full of just a few items that you’ll probably never use, but this box was FULL of yummy foods that were right up my alley. Of course, the boxes change each month (with new foods and products), so you’ll rarely get the same thing, but just take a look at this example of last month’s box. Holy goodies, Batman!

Inside was a full-size (!) KIND Granola, four Hi-Fiber Mini bars (which we’ve been tossing in our backpack for hiking), a full size (!) Hemp Hearts package (so good on salads), two packets of Eboost, a sample of Hot Chili Oloves, a few Nektar honey crystals (I LOVE these!) and a $25 iTrain gift card. That is so much stuff! Each box runs $19 per month—and there is definitely more than $19 worth of stuff in that box.

Bestowed has offered to giveaway one free month’s subscription to a BTHR reader! Yay! Ready to win?

friday freebie: golden earth all-natural perfume {CLOSED}

Posted on Apr 26, 2013 in Lifestyle

This giveaway is now CLOSED.

Stay tuned every other Friday for a new fun giveaway!

I have a super fun giveaway for your guys today! I was contacted a few weeks ago by the nice people at Golden Earth aromatherapy and essential oils. They have lots of really cool, all-natural, cruelty-free beauty products, but today, we’re talking about their all-natural perfume blends.

There are six different scents, and all of them are free of artificial or synthetic ingredients. Golden Earth sent me three scents to try out, and they all smell amazing! They are light and airy, without any of that harsh, assaulting smell that you sometimes get from artificial scents. I’m pretty much in love with the Grace scent. It’s floral and citrusy, without being too sugary sweet. I’m a fan! I don’t wear a lot of makeup or have a lot of beauty products, but there is something about wearing perfume that makes me feel so girly, pretty and happy. And these perfumes from Golden Earth are a great way to do that minus the chemicals.

Ready to win a bottle of your own?

• PRIZE: One full-size bottle of Golden Earth natural perfume (your choice from six scents)
• TO ENTER: Comment on this post and let me know which scent you are most excited to try out.
• GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Tuesday, April 30th, 2013 at Noon (12pm) EST

Tune in every other Friday for a new giveaway!

Have you guys heard of Jamberry yet? If not, Jamberry is a company that sells fun nail shields that are easy to put on, stay on for weeks and come in dozens of colors, patterns and styles. They are a really fun way for folks to get the “nail art” look without spending hours and hours with a teeny tiny brush painting designs.

My friend Steph sent me a sheet of Jamberry shields to try out (this one) and I thought they were so awesome that I asked Steph if she’d be willing to give away some to you guys! She graciously agreed. Woohoo! My favorite part about using Jamberry shields? No dry time! I’m chronically bad about ruining my manicure because I’m too impatient to wait for it to dry. With Jamberry, I can go from no manicure, to awesome, intricate, fun nail art in just a few minutes.
