3/11/14 Update: The NYX giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Samantha in MN for winning the NYX blush! Stay tuned for future contests! Thank you to all my wonderful readers!
Now that February is behind us, I thought I'd have a little fun and hand out MY own awards for the subscription boxes that I reviewed last month. Some of these companies are really outdoing their competition in terms of price, quantity and quality of content and I thought they deserved some recognition!
These are my opinions only and are just based on the content of the February boxes and my general impressions of the company. Each award is followed by a brief rationale and you can click on the name of the company to see the original review.
Also, I'm giving away a NYX blush this week! Details are at the bottom.
******************************************************
Best $10 beauty box - Ipsy
(Rationale: Ipsy provided full size products; Birchbox included only samples)
Best "over $15" beauty box - e.l.f. Beauty Bundle
(Rationale: e.l.f. sent nine full size products....they win on sheer quantity!)
Best "soap" box - The Fortune Cookie Soap Company
(Rationale: Gorgeous presentation, variety of samples and quality of product)
Best portion controlled healthy snack box - Graze Box
(Rationale: Graze and Nibblr provide essentially the same service. Graze won
this time just because you can get two boxes for free when you sign up.)
Best full size healthy snack box - Nature Box
(Rationale: Nature Box won hands down over Boxtera because they allow you
to customize your box and they show full nutritional information on each
package. Also, Boxtera does not allow uncensored public comment on their
Facebook page or website.)
Best gourmet treat box - Taste Trunk
(Rationale: They just put more quality and quantity in their box than their
competition this month.)
Most fun to open - PopSugar Must Have Box
(Rationale: There isn't a lot of competition in the "Lifestyle" category yet, but I
have a feeling we will be seeing more of that.)

Aloooooooooo-ha! Have you heard any feedback on the FabFitFun subscription box? I'm curious if it is a good choice to add to my growing subscriptions list!
I've just signed up for the Spring FabFitFun box but I don't think it ships until mid-March. I'll be doing a review on it as soon as it arrives!
Hi Cheryl! I'm a blast from your past. Interesting what you are doing here. I've always wondered what came in these subscriptions and were they worth the price. Now I know. You lay it out nicely.
