Popsugar Must Have Box: October 2016

I was lucky enough to be able to team up with PopSugar Must Have again this past month and was selected to receive the October PopSugar Must Have Box. Thank you PopSugar!

While the box was complimentary, all opinions are definitely my own. I did not receive monetary compensation for this review.

PopSugar Must Have Subscription: $39.95/month

October 2016 PopSugar Must Have Box

PopSugar Must Have Box October 2016

Okay I feel like I enjoy each PopSugar box for different reasons. I liked last month’s box because of all of the travel items it included and I really like this box because of the practicality of the items and I feel like everything is pretty much geared towards fall. I will definitely use everything included in this box.

Here’s what’s in the box:

This is a super cute umbrella but I don’t think I’d ever pay $58 for one – no matter what it looked like. I do like the brown/pink combo for fall. October is a pretty cool, rainy month here so I suppose it’s fit for fall. I plan to keep it in my Jeep.

 

Brown sugar vanilla is one of my all time favorite scents for body washes. The scent is perfect for fall. I will happily use this up. Bella seems to really like it too!

 

  • My Cup of Cocoa – value $4.99

Hot cocoa is another great item that fits right in with fall. I don’t like many beverages that make my mouth hot. Maybe I’m weird? But I do like hot cocoa. They also have My Cup of Cake!

 

I love that they included hot cocoa and a super cute mug. This mug isn’t overly huge but I feel like it’s the perfect size for me. I plan on bringing this to work for my much-needed coffee in the morning.

 

I actually have the original Makeup Eraser in the larger size and I’m a huge fan so I know I’ll love the mini version! It’s crazy that this soft cloth and some water will wash the makeup off my face. I do need to use a separate makeup remover for mascara but this cloth will get everything off my face. It’s weird but it works.

 

  • Power Your Happy (Hardcover Book) – value $25.00

This was a *special extra*. I’ve never received a PopSugar box with a book in it before. I think it’s fitting that Power Your Happy is in this PopSugar box considering it’s written by the founder of PopSugar, Lisa Sugar.

Lisa Sugar has an amazing job. She spends her days at POPSUGAR creating content about pop culture, must-have handbags and makeup, healthy recipes, and Instagram-worthy sweets. She manages an enormously successful, growing company with employees who love what they do. And her life is just as great at home. She and her husband have three daughters and she’s the number one soccer mom who loves reading bedtime stories every night.

How did she do it? By figuring out what her dream job was, taking risks, and believing in herself. …read more.

The reviews look pretty good on Amazon so I’m hopeful this will be an inspiring, educational read.

 

  • Revlon ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen – value $8.99

This was also a *special extra*. Some people grumble about receiving eyeliner in subscription boxes because they are a pretty common item but I appreciate getting eyeliner because it’s a staple item. You can never have enough!

=====> Total approximate retail value: $152.98.

Final Thoughts

The value of this box is now officially the highest I’ve ever received when including the *special extras*. I love that so many of the items are useful and practical. I really don’t have any “meh” items in the box though I know I wouldn’t pay $58 for an umbrella. But, I’m happy to be introduced to the Henri Bendel brand.

Thanks again PopSugar!
