March 2014 POPSUGAR Must Have Box Review with Spoilers

It's POPSUGAR time again!  I find, these days, that I mark time by Popsugar.  Another Popsguar, another month.  It sure makes the year go fast.

POPSUGAR 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.

And guess what, as of writing this post the March box is still available fore sell!  You can get $10 off your first box by using the code MARCH10  

First look and overview.

 

  Brokedown Blue Ikat Scarf, valued at $72.  Five or so days ago Popsugar Must Have released this spoiler for the March box, and everyone on the forums went crazy.  It's really nice, very different from anything I own, soft, and high quality.  Love it!  Now I just need to figure out how to style it.

The pamphlet states this scarf was designed exclusively for Popsugar subscribers, which is super cool.  I did find this picture on the Brokedown facebook page with spoilers for their new collection:

 Jurlique Herbal Recovery Advanced Serum, valued at $27 in the 15 ml, the 30 ml is $54.  I was so excited to see Jurlique again!  The rose hand cream sample was in the Winter Yuzen box, and I became obsessed with it.  Fantastic product.  I can't wait to try this out.

 What is this!!??  It's an Active Forever Fusion Exercise Ball, valued at $9.95.  The POPSUGAR Must Have website has a few exercises on their blog, which I'm going to try.  I even have some exercises I've collected from some fitness magazines, which I still need to try.  This is a push in a positive direction :0)

 BaubleBar Elephant Ring Tree, valued at $12.  Super cute!  I'm already using it.

 Dogeared Lucky Horseshoe Make A Wish Necklace, valued at $31.  No joke, a couple months ago I was thumbing through a set of Dogeared charms in the Sundance gift shop, thinking they were super cute, but a little out of reach for me.  And now I have one!  This horseshoe is supposed to bring me good luck.  I can always use some.  I did brake the string on purpose trying to find a chain that works with this, but haven't had success.  I didn't want to wear the necklace with the thread.  Haven't found the right chain.

 Snapea Crisps, valued at $2.  Peas are my least favorite veggie of all time.  Hate Them.  But these crisps are super good.  I had to refrain from eating the whole bag!  Tough to resist. They're like a veggie chip.

Nature’s Bakery All Natural Strawberry Fig Bars.  I haven't tried this yet, because I'm saving it for later.  I can't eat all my snacks in one setting!  But I can't wait to try it.

This was a very good month for Popsugar, and everyone on the Makeup Talk forum is very happy!  Overwhelmingly positive reviews.  Great mix and variety of items.

February 2014 POPSUGAR Must Have Box Review with Spoilers

 I got my PopSugar box today.  So soon!  And I didn't even look at spoilers, so opening the box was a complete surprise, and that just makes it all the more fun.

I can't wait to try this!  

 NCLA Nail Polish in Rodeo Drive Royalty, valued at $16.00.  I've never used this brand of nail polish, so I'm excited to try, and it's a very pretty shade of deep red.  Just in time for Valentines.

 Cinnamon Hearts from Sugar Wish, valued at $6.25?  It's four 1/4th bags at $25, so I'm guessing we got a 1/4 pound, but I don't know.  I had a couple, and they're tasty!  Another great Valentines item.  They're going to offset all the chocolate I plan on eating next Friday.

 k. hall designs PEONY Candle Tin, valued at $11.  This candle smells so nice, and it burns for 20 hours!  Yeah, I'm totally testing this claim.

 Gorjana and Griffin Brooks Jewelry Roll, valued at $45.  I don't own a jewelry roll, and this is a nice one.  I've taken necklaces on trips before and had them get all tangled up.  Not fun!  This item will help :0)

 Model Co. Lip Pops Duo Lip Gloss and LipStick, valued at $16.  This was supposed to come in my box, but my box arrived with it missing.  Very dissapointing.  I emailed Costumer Service, so hopefully they respond soon, and send this Model Co. Lip Duo to me.  Looking forward to it, because I love lip glosses.

And a bonus item!

Dial Vitamin Boost Body Wash, valued around $3.  I just tried this, and I love it.  Nice scent that lingers.

Apart from the disappointment in not receiving an item, I love this box.  Another great month for PopSugar.  (And it will be even greater when I get the lip duo.  Hope Costumer Service gets back to me.)

January 2014 POPSUGAR Must Have Box Review with Spoilers

 Popsugar Must Have subscription box got the boxes shipped a little late this month, but mine shipped out last Monday, and I got it this morning.  Super fast.  Honestly, I love this box!!!!  Makes up for December :0)

 White Truffle Pipcorn, valued at $6.  I've heard so much about truffles, but haven't tried anything with truffles, dispute my love of mushrooms.  They're so expensive.  This popcorn (pipcorn) is really nice, tasty, and light.

 

The Juice Generation: 100 Recipes for Fresh Juices and Superfood Smoothies, by Eric Helms, Retails at $20.  I'm not into the Juicing trend as a whole, being a lover of meat and chewing food, but I am fond of juices and smoothies, and this book is nicely put together.  Bright colorful pictures, and an explanation of all the superfoods and why they're so good to eat.  Also, there's tips and advice for making your own concoctions.  

Super cool.

 Revlon by Marchesa Box O' Files, valued at $3.49.  I need to get into the habit of filing my nails when I cut them, and these are such a cute set

 

 2014 Flip Around the World Desk Calendar, by Rifle Paper Co., valued at $16.00.  This calender is so cute!!  Below is a picture of the calender opened to April, which is the Paris map.  Each page is a map of some famous cities around the world, done in a fun style.  After I'm done using this calender at the start of next year, I'm going to frame my favorite pictures for the wall.

 See how cute the calender is?

 (Malin+Goetz) Detox face mask, valued at $40, Full Size!  I'm so excited to try this!  This product has such good reviews, and everyone on the forum I visit says this detox face mask feels so good.  A perfect pamper item.  And the size is actually quite large.  From the website:

"Winner of Allure Magazine's Editor's Choice Best of Beauty Awards (2008) Best Deep Cleansing Mask. An easy 5-minute foaming gel mask: Innovative, oxygenating cleansing agents replace harsh detergents and drying clays to deep-pore-cleanse, lifting dirt, oil and make-up away from the skin without irritation, while creating a physical barrier to seal hydration. Complex amino acids and natural almond extract gently and effectively purify, clarify, balance and soothe. Stable Vitamin C, antioxidants Vitamin E and Soy Protein help firm and address concerns for aging while instantly brightening complexion. Natural fragrance and color."

Pure Luxury, which is one of the reasons I subscribed to Popsugar in the first place, so I can experience and discover amazing items I didn't know about.

Jack + Lucy Tech Gloves.  No one can find the link to these gloves, and I had no luck getting the information, but I love these!  I've never owned a pair of tech gloves, never really knew what they were, but these are nice and comfortable.  What's even more awesome is that these gloves fit perfectly!!!  I've got such short fingers, and it's hard finding gloves that aren't too long.  It's delightful that I finally own a pair that fits!

Overall a fantastic box.
