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!

I’m sharing my Glow-Up Routine for Women Over 50 I’m sharing my Glow-Up Routine for Women Over 50 for a beautiful natural makeup look that enhances the beauty of mature skin and protects it from the sun. It’s makeup and skincare in one! I love a multitasker, don’t you?

What I used:
Universal Tinted Moisturizer: This is a lightweight tinted moisturizer with SPF 46 that gives sheer coverage and a natural glow. It nourishes and hydrates with hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, and a high concentration of niacinamide (vitamin B3). It blends out perfectly for all skin tones.

Luminous Eye Corrector: This product comes in 4 peachy shades to cancel out under eye circles and darkness. It stays all day, doesn’t crease and gives perfect coverage without looking cakey. It has mineral SPF 41 to protect that delicate skin under the eyes.

Lip Silk: Deeply hydrating lip color that’s formulated with Squalane, Meadowfoam, & Peptides to nourish and soften lips without bleeding into lip lines. Available in 2 shades Soft and Bold. It has mineral based SPF 40 to protect lips from the sun and also from blue light.

These are fantastic skincare products that make you feel good in your own skin & they’re linked in my profile!💫

The Costco parking lot is always so crowded and full, but a rainy day keeps lots of shoppers away so I could score a great parking spot right now.

I recently went to the Southlake, TX location of S I recently went to the Southlake, TX location of Skin Pharm for a little Dysport refresh with the incredible Rebekah.💖

I really appreciate her knowledge and skill, but what impresses me the most is the way she listens to my concerns about my aging skin and she does everything she can to help make me feel more confident.

She educated me on the latest products and treatments available and we decided together that Skinvive is something that I might want to try in the future. Have you heard of it? It purely for hydration and not for volume.

You can see my highlights with my previous treatments at Skin Pharm too.

Skin Pharm is a clinician-founded, female-led cosmetic dermatology practice with locations in several states including TX, GA, NC, SC and TN. 

Oh, and their skincare products are amazing! You can purchase them right from their website too! I highly recommend their cleansers, the eye sculpt cream, the Youth Serum and the new Face Whip.💫

✨Right now they’re running a special where you get FREE cleanser AND Crystal Clear with any treatment  through 5/30/25.✨

Book your appointment at @skinpharm asap so they can take care of you too!

I absolutely loved all the dresses and accessories I absolutely loved all the dresses and accessories I tried on! I ended up buying the orange striped shirtdress that day, picked up another one a few days later, and I'm still dreaming of one more.🤦🏻‍♀️

Now, bring on that beach vacation or call me to go to brunch! I’m ready and I have the perfect dress!👗 

Comment SHOP for the links and sizing info.🥰
