Ipsy wants subscribers to 'Swim Into Beauty' this month, and that's absolutely fine with me! They sent five beauty must haves for June in a little black bag. At only $10 a month, who can resist?

Little Lace Box Serendipity Review May 2015
Little Lace Box surprised me once again! The girls have started a new experience called Serendipity. This shipment includes samples and full-sized items that the girls come across and want to share with us. They are those a la carte luxuries that don't quite fit with their bi-monthly themes. Serendipity is $9.99 and ships every other month when the Little Lace Box is on break. Current subscribers received the first Serendipity for free!

Marvel Collector Corps Review April 2015
Let's look inside the inaugural Marvel Collector Corps box! I was so excited when Marvel announced this bimonthly box. Any collaboration between Marvel and Funko has to be great.
This is the first look inside the box. I like the Avengers comic panels inside and how the patch and pin were presented.

Loot Crate Review May 2015
There's always a great feeling when forces unite. Loot Crate acknowledges some of the best teams in media with May's theme, Unite.
Loot Crate Magazine Volume 22 ~ Inside this issue Ash Mahtani discusses the greatest comic teams and Boom! Studios gets interviewed.
Loot Crate Collectible Pin ~ I believe there were two pin designs this month. One is DC based and the other is Marvel based.
Avengers: Age of Ultron Car Decal ~ There are several Avengers items in this box. It's only fitting because the Avengers: Age of Ultron released this month and they are the team of the moment. I'm sure this will end up on a computer or tablet.
Team Fortress 2 Button Set ~ Computer gamers are sure to love these! My son just got a Steam account, so he'll have to check out Team Fortress 2. These pins will help you show off your TF2 fandom. I really like Balloonicorn!
Bravest Warriors Tales from the Holo John #1 ~ This should be an entertaining read with 5 stories inside. Loot Crate snagged another variant cover. Do they have awesome connections, or what?
Exclusive MAD Magazine Loot Crate Edition ~ Poor Alfred can't even begin to compare to Jason Momoa! This edition of MAD has exclusive content just for Looters.
Marvel Sneaker Laces ~ Ryker got the colorful laces. They're 48" long and look great because they are covered in heroes.
Rick and Morty Jigsaw Puzzle ~ Even though Ryker has never seen this show, he can still enjoy the puzzle. It's 300 pieces and features a plethora of characters.
Marvel Ice Cube Tray ~ This is a silicone ice tray. It makes 8 ice cubes based on Marvel characters and icons. The molds can also be used for candy!
Green Ranger T-Shirt ~ This is another Loot Crate exclusive. It's actually Power Rangers branded. This shirt definitely fits in with the 'Unite' theme!
This was a pretty fun box for my son. He's looking forward to putting the puzzle together and making ice!

I have fallen in love with Fortune Cookie Soap. They are a company that prides themselves in creating fun, safe, and unique bath and body products. They have a quarterly box that ships each season. This is my first subscription box with them. My absolute favorite FCS scent is 'In the Loop', which smells like Froot Loops cereal.

The tech lover in me had to subscribe to this box. I just received the #KEV02 shipment from Quarterly Co. and Kevin Rose. He referred to this box as having a personal hygiene theme, but there is also a twist of fun in it.
This insert wasn't very descriptive, but Kevin did make a video explaining each item.

Comic Con Box Review April 2015
I was so excited to hear that Wizard World was launching a subscription box! The Comic Con Box is full of collectibles and exclusives from popular franchises seen at comic con events. I paid $29.99, plus $7 s&h for the box and was quite pleased with everything. I've been to two Wizard World Comic Cons and loved them - this box is an extension of some of the awesome things you'd experience there.

Bitsbox Review April 2015
Yesterday brought us our very first Bitsbox. I bought a 3-month subscription off of Kickstarter. Bitsbox provides monthly coding projects for kids. Did you know computer programming is one of the fastest growing careers? I think this subscription service will not only be fun for kids, but extremely beneficial for them in the long run.
Here are the subscription plans: Month-to-month box ~ $40+s/h
Every 3 months ~ $105+s/h
1 year ~ $360+s/h
Since this is primarily a web-based program, subscribers can also buy a PDF download of the monthly coding activities for only $20. I think this is a great option!
Little Lace Box Review April 2015
My Little Lace Box is always the highlight of my month! The girls went with a theme in honor of their grandmother, called "Nona's Kitchen". Once again, it is wonderfully curated to the theme and everything is usable and enjoyable.
Ipsy Review April 2015
This month's Ipsy bag is so cute! It's a multi-colored, woven straw bag. The theme was Beautifully Bohemian.

Pokecrate Review March 2015
Pokecrate is one of my newest subscriptions. I just received the March box today. I'm not happy with their shipping - I've received both Pokecrates after the month is over. I'd love to receive the April box in April. I pay $15.99, plus $4 shipping for this box.
Pokemon Key Chain ~ I've received this item in both Pokecrates. If you want this, send me an email and it's yours!
Loot Crate Review March 2015
Loot Crate went with the theme, Covert, this month. I think this was a fun theme and loved the Marvel collectible.

Little Lace Box Review March 2014
I can't believe it's the 23rd of March and I haven't written about any of my March boxes. This has been a busy month, but I'm taking time out to show you my absolute favorite subscription - Little Lace Box. I believe the March theme is "Here Comes the Sun", which celebrates our triumph over the harsh winter. This box wakes us up and leads us into spring with items to nourish our mind, body, and soul.
I was a little sad to see that several people complained about the various items in past boxes. I personally love the earrings these girls curate. If you really don't like personal grooming (cleansing/moisturizing), smelling nice, and looking nice (a variety of jewelry options), then stop getting this box. I think LLB celebrates the indulgences that make us feel great, strong, and feminine. I don't want Brianna, Taylor, and Aubrey to stop sending items like this. When I do get things that aren't my fancy, I don't like to complain about it because I realize that's a risk with subscription boxes. Honestly, I enjoy sharing the things I don't like with those who do appreciate them. It's a great feeling to see someone light up because you thought of them.

Pokecrate Review February 2015
Have you heard of Pokecrate? It's a subscription box filled with everything Pokemon. I subscribed to this because both of my kids are currently going through a Pokemon phase.
Pokecrate is $15.99, plus $4 shipping and tax. A wearable or plush is guaranteed in every crate. I received a Pokecrate T-shirt. The design came from the Pokecrate T-shirt contest in January. This is the 2nd place winner by @TootSoup.
Quarterly Co. GQ Box Review March 2015 #GQQ03
My #GQQ03 made it through snowmageddon! GQ's third Quarterly box helps subscribers execute the perfect romantic night in. I think of it more as an "impress the ladies" box, but it is well curated and everything ties well to the theme.
