Subscription Boxes

Summer Essentials + A Giveaway

June 27, 2016

The POPSUGAR Must Have Box has always been one of my favorite monthly subscription boxes.  I’ve been receiving it for almost three whole years now.  The POPSUGAR monthly subscription is $39.95 (including shipping).  You can subscribe to more boxes at a time and get reduced pricing if you prefer.  Either way, these are completely worth their price.

You always receive at least $100 (usually much more) of Lisa Sugar’s curated favorites and let me tell you, she has amazing taste!!  Each box contains all full size products in the beauty, fashion, fitness and home categories and more.  This is a great way to discover new products that you might not be aware of otherwise.  Right now you can use the code June5 to get $5 off your first box.

This time around I have an extra box to give away to one of you.  It’s filled with some fun products to get you through the summer.  Let’s take a peek at the products in the June box.

Popsugar Must Have Box Review

POPSUGAR boxes ALWAYS make me happy and make me smile!

popsugar-must-have-box-june

The beauty and fashion products in this month’s box.

The first four products in the box are beauty and fashion essentials for summer.

  • There is a bright red compact mirror for touch ups on the go from Knock Knock.  It has a sassy little saying on the outside, which completes itself on the inside.  It says “Are you ready for your closeup?”  How cute is that?!  Perfect for keeping in your purse, pocket, car or gym bag.  Retail $10
  • Speaking of perfect on-the-go-products, take a look at these super convenient underarm deodorant wipes from Pacifica.  These are aluminum free and vegan and have a nice scent (I love Pacifica’s perfumes).  These work well and kept me fresh, even in the 100 degree Texas heat.  Retail $9
  • Also included in the beauty category is a fun patriotic nail polish called Born on the 4th from NCLA.  It’s a red, white and blue sparkle that can be worn on it’s own or layered over another polish.  This one is exclusive to POPSUGAR.  Retail $16
  • The products shown are photographed on top of the next item in the box.  It’s a gorgeous sarong in a neutral diamond print from Hat Attack.  It can be worn multiple ways over your swimsuit as a cover-up or even twisted and tied and worn as a scarf in the cooler months.  Retail $58
Popsugar box

Food and home products in the box.

  • Next up is a snack item, which happens to be one of my favorite categories as well.  These are Sriracha flavored Pressels, a bag of spicy reduced fat and low sodium pretzel chips.  Retail $1.29
  • This box includes a fun gold bottle opener from Sisters of Los Angeles.  It’s both functional and fun to look at.  Retail $12

Entertainment was included in this box too! 🙂

  • The last item in this box is a fun game to play with family and friends called “Who am I?” from Wild and Wolf.  Each card has hints for guessing the celebrity listed.  It’s an easy and fun game to test your celebrity I.Q.   Retail $12.95

This wasn’t my favorite of all the POPSUGAR boxes that I’ve received.  However, it did have some products that made me happy.  Take a look at the POPSUGAR website to see some of their previous boxes and how their subscription program works.

Tell me what you think of the June Must Have Box…  Worth the $39.95?

    I tried Glossybox once, and i realized I hate getting things I don’t want like lip products and in colors I wouldn’t have picked for myself. I love the idea of getting myself a gift box monthly or quarterly but I dont like being disappointed, that’s my friends’ job when they give me gifts for my bday or Christmas…things I dont want, lol

Remember this pretty navy strapless dress? I can change up the look in the blink of the eye with my accessories. 

Today I added a lightweight olive color sweater wrap over my shoulders and a neutral cane wristlet. 

I find the little half sweater wrap to be the perfect touch. It adds interest, extra color and a tiny bit of warmth. It comes in dozens of colors and stripes too. 

Dress and topper are on sale!🎉

I patiently waited (and stalked) the website and brick and mortar stores until I finally found these cute (and extremely comfortable) suede sandals in my size. 🎉

They’re the perfect pairing with my new Lysse New York outfit! I’m feeling like I should be going somewhere warm and fun now.

And yes, it has pockets! To be honest, the only thing I ever put in the pockets are my hands. But when a dress doesn’t have them, I don’t feel as comfortable. Anybody else feel the same?😅

One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack-It Jacket. It’s a great option, especially when I’m on the go! #ad

It has adjustable elastic to cinch in the waist, a hood when I need it in the rain (this hair is a lot of work so I have to protect it)!😅

And the best part is that it can be rolled up into its zipper pouch and tossed it into my bag so I have it when I really need it! It came in handy on my boat ride yesterday!

It comes in several different colors as well as inclusive sizing, so there’s a jacket for everyone! Oh, and it makes a great gift too!
