Hi I’m Roxy!
I am a 22 year old student and the author of Roxy's Box of Tricks.
I normally live in Sheffield but I'm currently staying with my parents in the Welsh Valleys, where I lived growing up.
In 2012, I had an accident whilst out ice skating and was rushed to hospital. The accident means that I'm in Ilizarov apparatus (or external fixation) for the next 6 months and depend on crutches. I write about my experience with my Illizarov on another blog but try not to mention it too often here.

I started blogging after my accident as when I was in hospital, I started reading beauty and fashion blogs to pass the day. When I was allowed home, I decided to start my own blog to pass the time and to show people my favourite products.
I plan to try and stick to low budget brands as I don't have a lot of money and I promise not to lie about a product. I want to test products; get my nails dirty to try the varnish, eat a sandwich to test a lipstick and rub my eyes to trial mascara. I also worked at Lush Cosmetics for three years and I want to show you all the tricks I found whilst working there.
When I'm not blogging or in Wales, I live with my Fiance in Sheffield where I'm studying for a PhD in Philosophy and work part time in the Lego shop.
If you have any more questions feel free to ask!
