I almost couldn’t even believe it when I got my mail today, but my May 2014 PopSugar Must Have box was here!!
If you aren’t familiar, PopSugar Must Have Box (which is probably my favorite box ever) is an exciting monthly box full of fun, must-have picks across fashion, beauty, home decor, fitness, and more, which is delivered to your door on a monthly basis. Boxes include full-size products and premium items including tried-and-true classics, celebrity favorites, and brands consumers have yet to discover worth over $100!
My May PopSugar box(es), which ship via FedEx Smart Post, arrived in only five days, which was just about a world record. One box came from CA and the other from NY, but they met up somewhere along the way and were delivered together.
I knew what was in this month’s PopSugar box, but like I always say, it’s even better to actually get your hands on everything in real life! I wonder if I will ever be able to go spoiler free for PopSugar? It’s doubtful ;).
The May 2014 PopSugar Must Have Box included the following items which were curated to give you a head start on feeling rested and energized for your upcoming activities and weekend getaways:
Must Have Beauty
~Smellbent Perfume Spray in St. Tropez ($45): I have been so curious about the scent of this one because I have been hearing mixed reviews on it. When I first sprayed it, I hated it. But after I had it on about 10 minutes, I loved it! It definitely changes as you wear it and I am really glad I ended up liking it. It doesn’t smell like sunscreen to me, but it does smell tropical and beachy!
Must Have Home
~Citrus Zinger Infuser Water Bottle ($16.99): Yes! I have been needing a new water bottle and an infuser one is even better. And how lucky do I feel that I got the pink one? Operation drink more water (and eat less crap) will be starting as soon as B is done with school (aka next week), so the timing on this is perfect.
Must Have Home
~Kerry Cassill Sleep Mask ($24): I don’t use a sleep mask, but I will sometimes bring one along on long trips. Well, I used to anyway, when I went on long plane trips and could nap on them. It will happen again one day, so I will keep it for then.
Must Have Beauty
~Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Nail Lacquer (Pool Boy) ($10): Well who can’t use more nail polish? Ha! I know I can ;). This is a new brand to me, but the from what I can tell just trying it real quickly, the formula looks great! And I love the color. Perfect for summer.
Must Have Fitness
~Tone It Up! One Day Fat Blast DVD (~$10): I really need to start doing these DVD’s that PopSugar (and some of the other boxes) sends. I hate doing them alone though, so hopefully B will do them with me. And because he is a good guy like that, I am sure he will!
Must Have Food
~Hi I’m Skinny Sticks (Multi-Grain Sweet Onion) ($2.99): I have never heard of these before, but they are yummy! I am going to order one of their sampler packs so I can try all the flavors without having to worry about hunting them down around here.
PopSugar also sent those who purchased the Limited Edition Resort Box the following special gift because of the delay we had in receiving the box:
~vbeaute Lip Spread Original – Anti Aging Tinting Lip Gloss ($19): I don’t know that I have ever worried about my lips aging, but maybe I should be? It’s kind of a mood lip gloss because the tint changes based on your pH. Interesting!
All totaled I came up with a value of $108.98 for the May 2014 PopSugar Must Have Box (that doesn’t include the Lip Spread). It’s not my favorite PopSugar box ever, but since I like the perfume in it, I am totally totally happy with it. In fact, I may try to trade for more of that perfume!
