Subscription Boxes

The Must Have Box

October 18, 2016

One of the subscription boxes that I most look forward to receiving every single month is the Must Have Box from PopSugar.  Yes, there’s an occasional month where I’m not completely thrilled with the contents of my box.  But overall, this subscription box is the bomb!!  I pay $39.95 per month.  I receive only full size products valued at a minimum of $100 (usually much more).  The products are a mix of beauty, lifestyle, fitness and more.

*I purchased this/Affiliate links

subscription box

The box comes with a tri-fold card inside describing each product

My October Must Have Box arrived a few days ago and it made me pretty happy once again.  Let’s take a look at the contents and their value…

Must Have Box

The theme of the contents of the October Must Have Box

Popsugar

Lalicious Brown Sugar Vanilla Shower Oil and Bubble Bath – I’ve already been using this luxurious bath product.  The scent is very light.  The product really moisturizes my skin and makes me very happy!  Retail $28

Power Your Happy Book by Lisa Sugar, the founder of Popsugar.  This is a bonus item in the box and has a retail value of $25.  I’m a fan of nonfiction books and good advice type books so I look forward to reading this one.

Henri Bendel Packable Umbrella – I love everything about Henri Bendel since it brings back fond childhood memories of my aunt in NYC.  This is a fun umbrella that I’ll keep in my car for rainy days.  Retail $58.  In addition, the box contained a 20% off discount code to be used on the Henri Bendel website or in store.  Score!

Rise and Shine Mug from Morning Culture – Who doesn’t need a few fresh new mugs every fall?  I love the size of this one and the cute saying doesn’t hurt either.  Retail $16

Revlon Colorstay Liquid Eye Pen – This is another extra bonus item that was included in the box.  I’ll keep this for when I need a fresh new eyeliner or just give it to my daughter.  I’m not a huge fan of this type of liner these days with my crepey lids.  Retail $8.99

Dark Drinking Chocolate from My Cup of Cocoa – I haven’t tried this yet, but love a cup of hot cocoa during the cold winter months while cozying up on the couch.  Retail $4.99

Makeup Eraser Mini – I love this travel size mini for removing makeup and washing my face in general.  It’s so soft!  All you do is toss it in the wash after use and it’s good for 1,000 washes!!   Retail $12

You can check out the POPSUGAR website to see if this is a box you’d be interested in purchasing.  With the holidays coming, remember that you can gift these boxes and make someone very happy.

What do you think of the October Must Have Box?  Thumbs up or thumbs down?

*I purchased this product with my own money.  All opinions are mine and aren’t influenced by anyone else.  Affiliate links are used in this post.  Thanks for your support!

    I got last month’s box, and I loved it – especially the black felt hat and the red lip gloss! This month’s box looks good too. I’d like the HB umbrella since it was one of my fave stores when I lived in NYC. I’d also love to try that Lalicious Shower Gel and I could use the Makeup Eraser too. Good box!!

I thought I’d try that “style to styled”outf I thought I’d try that “style to styled”outfit post today. Swipe to see my out-the-door look.✨

This is an easy-to-wear casual Fall outfit from cabi. The lightweight floral patterned blouse has been one of my favorite layering pieces this season. 

I paired with the Palm Beach Crop. This season they’re a wide wale corduroy in a bone color with a copper button fly. They go with everything! Cropped on others, but a perfect longer length on me at 5’2”. 

Order all of your favorite cabi styles by December 8th for standard shipping to receive by Christmas. They have some great gift giving items for all of the ladies on your holiday shopping list.

Twas the day before Thanksgiving… and I’m fre Twas the day before Thanksgiving…

and I’m freaking out, as usual. I host every year and worry about having enough food and variety for everyone so I start adding extra items to my menu and grab an extra pie or 2 from the grocery store. I always end up with too much food, but apparently that’s how I like it. Now I just need to coordinate everything so it all comes out of the oven about the same time…

I’m so thankful for my family, friends and this community here on Instagram. I’m truly blessed and grateful. Praying for peace for all this year.

Happy Thanksgiving!

The Freshwater Pearl Company is hosting their third annual Get a Pearl, Give a Pearl fundraiser to benefit Uncommon Threads Boutique, a non-profit women’s empowerment organization in Lawrence, MA that I proudly support.

For every purchase that you make until the end of November they will donate a piece of jewelry to Uncommon Threads Boutique where they help women in need to boost their self-confidence through fashion.✨

Be sure to use the code PEARLS20 for 20% off your purchase until November 23rd. It’s a great way to support a great cause and also start your holiday shopping.
