The Latest Must Have Box

May 15, 2017

Affiliate Links

My latest Must Have Box has arrived from Popsugar.  This is the subscription box that I’ve been getting the longest.  Each box is filled with beauty, lifestyle, fitness items and more.  Most months I’m thrilled with the contents and other months are just so-so.  This month’s box is pretty good.  Not my favorite, but certainly not my least favorite either.

May 2017 Popsugar Must Have Box

The theme for the May box is about family, home and memories.

Let’s take a peek at the May Popsugar Must Have Box now…

Popsugar Must Have Box

Contents of the May 2017 Popsugar Must Have Box

Lipstick Queen Mornin’ Sunshine – This is an interesting lipstick (to say the least).  It is yellow in the tube, but when swatched it turns a pretty peach shade.  It can be worn alone or layered over other lipsticks to change their color.  It’s fun and I’m really enjoying it.  In addition, there is a code included in this month’s box for 15% off a lipstick queen purchase.  Retail Value $25Lipstick Queen Mornin Sunshine

mornin sunshine swatch

Here is the Lipstick Queen Mornin’ Sunshine swatched on my arm. It looks different on everyone, but is a sheer peach shade.

Samantha Faye inspirational cuff

Samantha Faye Inspirational Cuff  – This cuff design is exclusive just for POPSUGAR Must Have subscribers.  It’s engraved with the words “Be good. Do good. Feel good.” I absolutely adore inspirational jewelry, so this is a winner for me.  Retail Value $60

Tocca candles

Southern Culture Artisan Foods Strawberry Cream Muffin Mix – If you know me then you know I love my sweets.  I will be baking these sumptuous muffins soon.  Retail Value $7.99

Tocca Montauk Candle – I opened this candle and a burst of freshness hit me in the face.  This candle has a fresh/refreshing scent called Voyage Montauk that is perfect for spring and summer. The burn time of approximately 30 hours (3 oz size).  I highly recommend this line of candles.  Retail Value $2

Swing Design Essex Frame – This is a pretty silver plated frame to hold a 4×6 photo.  I like the white matte that surrounds the photo.  Retail Value $13

Nicely Noted card collection

Nicely Noted Card Collection – This is an exclusive set of 3 cards that are perfect for when you need a handwritten note.  This company has a subscription type program too where you can get cards delivered monthly.  I think this is a wonderful idea!  For the subscription you get 3 cards and 3 stamps.  Included in this month’s Popsugar box is a code for 50% the first month of a subscription.

This box retails for $39.95 per month (includes shipping).  The price goes down when you subscribe to multiple months rather than doing the month to month plan.  You can check everything out on their website (https://musthave.popsugar.com).  Use code MUSTHAVE5 to get $5 off your first box.

What do you think?  Would this box be worth the cost to you?  Let me know in the comments below.

      It’s a great value, especially if you don’t have these products already. The Lipstick Queen color changers are pretty cool. Stacie xo

    This month’s box is well worth the price with all of those goodies. That said, I can sort of see why you’re on the fence about it – they’re items that are more or less classics that will give you another candle, more note cards, another pretty frame etc. I love Lipstick Queen and I think color-changing lipsticks are fun but too bad that this one is so timid in the shade it turns.

    I’d be on the fence with this box even though I think everything is actually nice. It’s just that I don’t know if I’d need them. The bracelet and lipstick are my favorites from your box.

    I love the mixture of products in these boxes, there’s always such a fun variety! I actually don’t get any boxes at the moment, which is crazy, because at one time I was getting like 5!

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.

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.

My jewelry is Melinda Maria and you can use code StacieH for 10% off your order.✨

My purse is Spartina 449. Isn’t it divine?!💗

Just say SHOP and I will send you all the outfit details, but you must be following me to receive the message (it’s an IG rule).‼️ 

P.S. I’m 5’1” and mostly wear petites, but this outfit is regular misses sizes. The pants are cropped length on most.💖

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!
