Reader Appreciation Giveaway

Hi loves!  I hope you’re having a wonderful Monday, and if you’re not, the good news is that it’s almost over 😉 Snuggle up on the couch with a good book (or the Bachelor!) and relax.

I try to say it as much as possible on here but I truly am so grateful for each and every reader I have on BHC and follower on social media.  You support a passion of mine and I have actually built real friendships through these platforms that I am so grateful to have!  I love getting emails, messages, comments, anything from you guys that lets me get closer to you and learn a little bit more about who you are.  I guess writing a blog can feel a lot like a one way street sometimes, but I encourage you to feel comfortable to write to me whenever you want!  Even if it’s just to say hi!! I love LOVE to hear from y’all.

So, as a way to show a little bit of my appreciation for your being here, for supporting my dream, for being my friend, and just taking time out of your day to stop by my corner of the internet, I am hosting a little giveaway to show my appreciation for my readers/followers!  I am hosting this giveaway both on this blog and on my Instagram, but you can get double entries by commenting/entering on both!

THE GIVEAWAY

I put together a giveaway of just a few of my favorite things that you all have seen me post about and use all the time!  The winner will receive:

  1. A bottle of Sunday Riley Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment ($175 value)– I use this stuff every night before bed (just a thin layer!) and it has really helped brighten my complexion and get rid of dark, uneven spots.  I don’t even wear foundation anymore!  It is liquid gold.
  2. Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Travel Sticks Pack ($34 value) — You can read my review of these here, but I put a scoop of collagen powder in my coffee every morning! Sometimes I add it to my smoothies or baked goods.  It has helped with making my hair healthy and with it growing and my skin and digestion are better too.
  3. $100 gift card to Onzie — This is one of my favorite activewear brands, and y’all see me post my workouts wearing gear from here all the time.  The leggings, tanks, and sports bras are all so good.  I have so many things from here I love!

 

To enter, you MUST do the following (and leave a separate comment after each so I know you did it!):

  1. Comment below and tell me what you’d like to see more of on BHC in 2018!
  2. Subscribe to my email list
  3. Follow me on Instagram

Then for additional, optional entries (leave a separate comment after each!):

  1. Follow me on Facebook
  2. Follow me on Twitter
  3. Follow me on Pinterest

 

Again, thank you SO MUCH and good luck!! The winner will be announced on next Monday, February 5th.

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.  MORE TO COME!!!!

xo,

Bess

    This is a great giveaway! I’ve recently become obsessed with vital proteins collagen, as they’ve helped my nails (which were terribly weak even after abstaining from gel polish) a great deal so far. I’d love to see more skincare regimes/recommendations (also what skin type you have and what has worked for you). Thanks!
