June 2014 POPSUGAR Must Have Box Review with Spoilers


POPSUGAR Must Have is a monthly subscription lifestyle box for gals.  The cost is $39.95 a month, free shipping, but it's cheaper when you subscribe with a 3, 6, or 12 months subscription.  On any month you can receive goodies for home, a book, fitness, snack, makeup, pampering, fashion, etc.  You never know what you're going to get, only that it will be fun and worth around $100, give or take a little.
 As of today the June box is still for sale!  It probably wont be for much longer.  Coupon code REFER5 saves you $5!  JUNESELECT10 will save $10 on a 3 month sub (which is already $10 off, so that's like $20!).


They've changed the packaging!  I love the new look and white tissue paper.


 And I love the palm tree and design of the pamphlet.  Before it was just a pink square, but this new look makes the box feel special and well curated.  This whole box has a nice feel.  I was disappointed last week when the spoilers first came out, but now that I have it, and have gone through everything, this is one of my favorite boxes yet.


The One and Only by Emily Giffin, valued at $28.  A book!  And it's a novel at that.  Perfect for Summer.  I'm kinda embarrassed to admit that I've never heard of Emily Giffin, since she writes chick lit and I hang out in sci-fi/fantasy land, but I'm excited to give this a go.  Apparently there's a lot of football in it, which I really don't know much about, so this will be good!  I'll be reading a little romance and learn more about sports at the same time!  Two birds with one stone!  Broadening ones horizon is a good thing.

I've read the first chapter, and though I don't care for first person narrative, her style is warm and conversational, so I'm looking forward to this read.


 One Potato, Two Potato Hawaiian BBQ Chips, valued around $2.  I haven't tried this yet, but from what I've read on the forum everyone is loving these.  I'm saving these chips for a BBQ with steak, hopefully sooner then later :0)



 Turkish-T Beach Towel, valued at $32.  I love the color and style of this type.  It's so thin I'm thinking about using it as a scarf!


 You Smell Wet Wipes, valued at $5.  At first I really wasn't sure what to do with these, but I've decided to use one to clean my laptop keyboard and then my desk.  They have a nice soft lemon smell.

And I love the box!!!  This is my supreme giggle for the month.


 "Once clean, you'll emit a scent worthy of royalty.  Brightly colored birds will land on you singing, as unicorns prance by.  Crowds will part as you walk through them, possibly kneeling."

Heh.  If only.


 Lollies Basics Hair Ties, valued at $8.  Since they're made with swimwear these don't stretch like normal hair ties.


 And I wear my hair ties on my arm when not using them, so it's cool they can double as a bracelet.


 Sachajuan Shiny Citrus Body Lotion, valued at $24.  I'm so glad we got Shiny Citrus and not Spicy Citrus!  I tried to imagine what "shiny citrus" would smell like, but honestly if citrus could shine, it would smell like this.  I love the smell, and it lasts for hours.  The lotion feels really good, too.

One things for sure, I'm going to use this all up, and I'll be sad when it's gone.


Native Union $15 Coupon Code Voucher.  I'm not a big fan of gift cards in sub boxes, and since I'm short on cash I passed this on to my brothers.  Though, after going through their website, I'm eying a mint colored monocle.  If my brothers decide not to use the voucher, I might have to save up for one.  I've got till the end out August.

Overall a fantastic box.

Perfect for Summer.
