I really love monthly subscription services. I especially love reading other people's reviews of the boxes they receive. I discovered the blog My Subscription Addiction a few months ago, and have been a loyal reader ever since. It is a blog that reviews most of the subscription services out there. Complete heaven (and living vicariously through the author). Seriously, I had no idea there were so many subscription services out there.
One of my most coveted subscriptions (that I learned about on said blog) was the PopSugar Must Have Box. I had read a years worth of reviews, and each box seemed to get a little better. There is a coupon for $5 off your first box (REFER5), so I decided to give it a shot. I am so happy that I did.
This is the PopSugar Must Have Box.
It was packed full of beauty, fashion, home and food items (and sometimes contains fitness as well).
It also came with a card explaining a little bit more about each items, as well as the website where you can shop.
The Sea Salt Caramel Apple Chips were absolutely delicious. A bag was two servings, and I liked them so much that I lost track and ate the entire thing. I will be looking for these the next time I hit the grocery store.
The strawberry & black currant cream preserves by Maison de Monaco is also very good. Was really nice on toast with a side of eggs.
The Soap & Paper Factory Roland Pine Shea Butter Soap has a nice pine scent, however, I do not like bars of soap. I will probably use this as part of a hostess gift.
The Absolute! nail polish pads seem to work just fine so far. I like the Spring Fresh scent.
This is a wine tote from Lands ' End. It looks very sturdy and well-made. I don't know if I will ever use this, but it might be an interesting way to gift a bottle of wine .
This was my second favorite item in the box. This Illume candle in Nice smells heavenly, like Tahitian vanilla, sugar, and coconut cream. It also has a 35 hour burning time.
Last, but certainly not least, is this beautiful scarf/wrap by Michael Stars. It is warm and soft, and I have already worn it a few times.
The scarf itself retails for $42.
Overall, I adore the items that I discovered in this box. I love that there are things I wouldn't have necessarily picked out myself, which I ended up loving. The value was around $100 by my calculations (and the box itself was $35, going up to $39.95 this month). I am going to give it another shot in December and see if I am equally as impressed. If you are interested, here is my referral link. Also use code REFER5 to receive $5 off of your first box.
