Popsugar Must Have Box - August 2013

This month's Popsugar Must Have Box definitely has back-to-school vibe.  I know I'm a little late on posting about this, but I wanted to anyway.  Also, I guess this box can be considered an anniversary box as well because a special anniversary gift is included.

Popsugar is a monthly subscription box service for only $35/month.  All boxes include at least $100 worth of products.

August 2013 Popsugar Must Have

This month we have Must Have Anniversary Gift, Must Have Home, Must Have Beauty, and a Special Extra.

Must Have Anniversary Gift

The Must Have Anniversary Gift is the Gorjana Open Circle Necklace.  I remember seeing this necklace on Gorjana & Griffin's website a while, and wanting to buy it.  It would of been nice to get a silver piece of jewelry for once, but I still don't mind the gold because I have been loving it these days.  I've been shopping from Gorjana & Griffin for quite a while, even when it was just Gorjana and Griffin didn't even exist yet.

Value - $65

Must Have Home

For Must Have Home we have:

1. Bentgo All-in-one Stackable Bento Lunch Box - I got the lunch box in blue, and even though I don't exactly have a use for it, I will find one because it is so cute!  I love that these containers are microwave-, dishwasher-, and freezer-safe!  They also come in green, grey, and purple.  Right now they are on sale for $14.99.

Value - $19.99 (Original price)

2.  Lunares Apple Bowl - This bowl is so versatile.  You can use it for so many things, including hot and cold foods.  I will probably use this as a place to put my rings and other small jewelry items in since I have been looking for something for just that purpose. So perfect!  I've only found this bowl in a 7-piece set.

Value - $21.29 (Estimated)

3.  May Designs Weekly Agenda Notebook - I already have a similar notebook like this, but once I'm done with it, I will definitely be using this.  The weeks can be hand-written in so it can be used anytime.  I like it's simplicity, and it will fit easily inside my purse.  I also love how you can customize your own books, and other items, on their website.

Value - $20

Must Have Beauty

For Must Have Beauty we have:

1.  Lulah Body Wash - Body wash always comes in handy, then I don't have to worry about buying anymore after I run out of what I'm currently using.  I got the scent Vanilla Orchid.  I can't pick up on the Vanilla scent, but that's okay because there are so many vanilla-scented beauty items out there.  I actually really love this smell and glad that it's more flowery.  The body wash comes in other scents: Citron, Magnolia Fig, Peony, and Tamarind Ginger.

Value - $11.25

2.  Dermalogica Precleanse and Special Cleansing Gel - Dermalogica is one of those brands that I have heard, wanted to try, but never have. Now I can!  These are good travel sizes.

Precleanse Value - $9.50

Special Cleansing Gel Value - $10

Special Extra

This is the only thing I wasn't that happy about, the Naturebox Granny Smith Apples.  I do like apples, but I don't love them, and I thought these weren't going to be as chewy as they are.  Dried fruit isn't really my thing, but it's just an extra, so not a big deal.  Naturebox has their own subscription for $19.95/month, though I don't subscribe to it.

This my third Popsugar Must Have Box, and I love what I got this month!  This month, I got about $157 worth of products!!!

July 2013 Popsugar Must Have Box

June 2013 Popsugar Must Have Box

Popsugar Must Have box - July 2013

I absolutely love Popsugar! This is my second box and probably my favorite subscription box service! Popsugar is a monthly lifestyle box and only costs $35/month.

Here is July's box!

Even though June's box is my favorite so far, I still love the contents of this one! This month we have: Must Have Fashion, two Must Have Beauty's, two Must Have Food's, and Must Have Home.

Must Have Food:  Hannahmax Dark Chocolate Chocolate Chip All Natural Crunchy Cookie Chips

The name of this food item does seem redundant, but it is so delicious!  I had to hurry up and take a picture so I could eat these.  They are so, so good.  I'm not a real big fan of dark chocolate, but it doesn't even taste much like dark chocolate at all.  I will have to see what stores carry this so I can buy some more!

Retail Value: $5.99

Must Have Fashion: Baublebar Rose Double Curb Chain

I love this necklace!  I don't know why some people were complaining about it, but then again, some people will just gripe about anything.  If you don't like what you get, cancel your subscription!

Anyway, I was actually looking for something similar to this and now I don't have too.  This necklace would look nice with a simple black dress or to dress up a plain white t-shirt and jeans.

This did come with a 20% off coupon code, but I'm not sure if I will use it.  Now, if it was $20 off, I definitely would!

Retail Value: $28

Must Have Beauty:  NCLA As If! Polish and Supergoop! SPF 30 Anti-aging City Sunscreen Serum

The name of this nail polish obviously reminds me of the movie Clueless.  I do really like the color, it is a nice pale-looking purple.  I just looked at their website and they have lots of pretty colors that I would like to try! I need to get some nail polish swatch sticks so I can swatch polish colors in the future.

Retail Value: $16

This Supergoop! is obviously full-size.  And though I have never heard of the brand, until recently, I'm really interested to try it out.  I have been looking for SPF for my face and now I have it!  The fact that it is anti-aging, helps too.  Even though I am 30 years old and look about 20 (Thanks to great genes!), I still like to help slow down the aging process.

Retail Value: $42

Must Have Food: Mighty Leaf Iced Tea and Must Have Home: Tovolo King Cube Ice Tray

I just love tea! Especially iced tea.  Since my family is from Georgia, I grew up drinking a lot of it.  I'm so happy to get the Ginger Peach flavor because peach is my absolute favorite fruit, especially Georgia peaches!  So good.  According to their website, it is a best-selling flavor.

Retail Value: $6.25

I would never think to buy an ice cube tray, but I'm glad I have it.  I can't wait to make some tea with huge ice cubes.  There are other colors available of this tray including: Lime, Pink, Fuchsia, Stratus Blue, Royal Purple, and Orange Peel.

Retail Value: $8.95

I really liked this box.  The total value is $107.19, and I only paid $35 + tax for this!  The August box is sold out, but you can still sign up for September's box.  Sign up here!!

August 2013 Sneak Peek

I received this in my email not too long ago.  I hope this means this is an extra item.  I love Gorjana & Griffin and this necklace.  Very much looking forward to the August box!

June 2013 Popsugar Must Have box

Popsugar Must Have Box - June 2013

This is my first Popsugar Must Have Box, and I can already say that I'm sure this will be my favorite subscription box service that I will be getting!  It's more of a lifestyle box that comes with a different type of product in 6 different categories:  Must Have Fashion, Must Have Beauty, Must Have Fitness, Must Have Entertainment, Must Have Food, and a Special Extra.  It's only $35 a month.

June 2013 Popsugar Must Have Box

Must Have Fashion: Gorjana & Griffin Zuma Scarf, and a $25 off coupon to http://www.gorjana-griffin.com/

Retail: $62

I love Gorjana & Griffin already.  I have made several purchases from them for myself and others, many times.  I was actually looking into getting one of the scarves on their website before getting this in my box, so this was a nice surprise!  I love the navy and white stripes and that pop of neon!

Must Have Beauty:  Juice Beauty Stem Cell Repair Moisturizer and two samples of Juice Beauty CC Cream

Retail: $65 (moisturizer), $7.80 (CC creams)

I have never tried Juice Beauty and am looking forward to trying out these products.  There are two different shades in the CC Creams:  Natural Glow and Warm Glow.  Hope they work for my skin!

Must Have Fitness:  Hard Candy Fitness DVD-Addicted to Sweat 4

Retail: $19.99

Apparently this DVD includes Madonna's go-to workout routines.  Since she is in such good shape, I'm sure this will be a great workout.  I'm really into fitness and working out now, so I can't wait to try this!  If I like it, I may just have to purchase the other 3 DVD's in the series!

Must Have Entertainment:  Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns By Lauren Weisberger

Retail: $25.99

This is the sequel to The Devil Wears Prada, which I haven't read, but I've seen the movie.  So far, I haven't heard such great reviews about this book, but I will read it anyway to see for myself.  I'm not that picky as some are when it comes to writing, I just like to be entertained.  First, I will have to read The Devil Wears Prada before I begin reading this.

Must Have Food: Project 7 Quench The Thirsty, Wintergreen Mints

Retail: $1.79

Project 7 is a great company because they give back to several charities when their products are purchased.  One tray (12 tubes) of these mints provides a person in need with water for a year.  These are very handy to keep in your purse when you're on-the-go.  

Special Extra: Popcorn, Indiana, Fit Popcorn in Sea Salt

Retail: $5.33

This popcorn tastes pretty good for being healthy.  It has only 37 calories per cup, so you don't have to feel guilty for eating the whole bag in one sitting!

Total Retail Value: With the $25 off coupon, over $200!!!  It's nice to get over $200 worth of products for only $35/month.  Sign up here!!!  If you use the PROMO code REFER5, you get $5 off your first box!!

Overall, I'm very impressed with this subscription box service and I absolutely love everything in it, especially the scarf!  I can't wait for July's box!!
