UGHHHH I LOVE IT!

SugarPova in CHIC $5.99 My sister and I absolutely loved these. They were gone in a blink of an eye! They are so fruity and juicy! The ‘Chic’ assortment comes with purses, high heels, and sunglasses gummies. And they are all gone now! We will be ordering some shortly!

 image 2

Indie Lee Brightening Cleanser $32 Oh god, I’m such a sucker for packaging and I love how sleek and cool it all looks. It smells like strawberries and you actually use this after you wash your face! It has a nice lather to it and it is very light also. You can also find this item on eBay!

image 4

Marchesa Voyage For Shopstyle $140 This scarf actually doesn’t come out until september 9th! SO its pretty cool to get something before its available to anyone else. This is a very lightweight scarf and feels a little old for me. I love the colors and I like the print but I think I will be listing this on eBay.

image 5

Joie Knit Hat $98 This hat is literally no where to be found online! I’m obsessed with Joie and I really like this hat, I just don’t think I can pull it off. But I will be keeping it because its Joie and I think it will go really nicely with my new burberry winter coat I just picked out for Christmas! When they sent out the hint I had very high hopes for a sweater! That would have been the first ever clothing item that we would have gotten from Popsugar! But I will keep waiting until pop sugar finally adds some clothes and/ or shoes! You can find this hat on eBay!

image 9

Make Silk Cream Lipstick in Radicchio $25 I love lipstick, but subscription boxes never send me the colors I like to wear in lipstick! This is way too red for my taste, I prefer a much more natural look. So I will also be listing this on eBay.

image

BYWAY Capsule Parfums $38 I wasn’t sure if I was going to keep this or not because I have so many perfumes already, but I just sprayed one and I really like it. Its feminine, sexy, and innocent all in one fragrance. If you know the perfume sugar its a lot like that but just more grown up! I love it! if you missed out be sure to find this on eBay!

image 6

So I payed $100 for this box and received $339 worth of luxury items to get me ready for fall! I just love these special edition boxes! What did you think of this special edition box? Did you get to be apart of it before they all sold out? I can not wait for the Holiday one in Nov/Dec!  Make sure to follow me so you know when the next luxury box is available! AND Sign up for the monthly box!

Les Anis de Flavigny Lemon Candies $5 I love the packaging of this lemon candy, and I’m fine with the lemon flavor but I really wish I got the rose one instead. I love the candies, they are like little pearls, I thought they were more of a mint but they are just a sucking candy and they are only 5 calories.

image 2

Bonne Marie StrawberryPreserves $3  I love jams and jellys! I prefer raspberry, but strawberry is fine. Getting one straight from france is pretty cool, even though it is the smallest size ever.

 image 9

Pierre Biscuiterie Butter Cookies $4.25 WOW! These are delicious and taste like christmas! I’m not surprised at all that it has 5 stars on amazon. They are soooo buttery and perfect. They are called “butter cookies” but I’m pretty sure they are shortbread. 5 cookies are only 150 calories, honestly thats not bad, I thought it would have been a lot worse than that!

image 7

Institut Karite Creme Mains Ultra Riche $23 I’m so upset! I really wanted the rose one! I’m so upset that I got the boring one! It has no design at all! UGH I’m so mad! But, it has 5 stars on amazon, and they say that is extremely hydrating with out being greasy, so I might give this  a try.

 image 10

Rick Steves Pocket Paris $12.99 I usually hate these books but since I’m most likely going back to paris in a fews I will be holding onto this one. If you are also planning your trip to paris you can find these on eBay for less.

image 6

Edmond Fallot Dijon Mustard $5 I’m not a fan of any kind of mustard, but this mustard has a five star rating on amazon. Everyone on amazon raves about this mustard and say that it is a hidden gem of paris! I will be passing this off to a family member that loves mustard.

image 8

Nuxe Fondant Body Scrub $10? + Nuxe Fondant Shower Gel $8? I could not find the travel sizes anywhere so I’m guessing on their prices. I’m usually really not impressed with trail sizes and wasn’t expecting much from this one, mostly because of the packaging. But this one impressed me I love the scent and the texture, it is very high quality. I will eagerly anticipate using this on my next vacation!

image 5

This box cost $49 a month and I have received $71.24 of some really amazing travel items from Paris! This box didn’t really make me feel like it was about paris though. I was expecting macaroons and a Eiffel tower keychain!

Next Month is Puerto Rico! It will be shipping September 16!

What did you think of this months box? Will you be signing up for the Puerto Rico box? I have discontinued my box for now, let me know if you think I should reconsider and subscribe to them again.

My Favorite Of ALLLLLL!

Its so beautiful!

Finally Unveiled!

image 2

Goodbyn Purple Meal and Dipper Set $8 I couldn’t find the exact one like this but I found one that was pretty similar. This Lunch box is  purple but looks more like a dark blue in the picture. Also on the website they did not have the color purple, so I’m guessing that this was a special for Popsugar Must Have box. If you missed out on this item you can find it on eBay for less!image 8

Think Thin High Protein Bar Brownie Crunch $1.60 Maybe it was because I was craving chocolate and I had absolutely NO chocolate in my house, but this was the greatest thing in the world! 20 grams of protein and 0 grams of sugar! Thats insane! It was so good and I could see myself picking up more of these in the future!

image 3

Kendra Scott ‘Elle’ Drop Earrings $52 These are beautiful earrings and will go with anything! You can buy these at Nordstrom! I’m normally more of a post earring rather than a dangle earring kind of girl but I’m open to expanding my collection when they are as beautiful as these! If you missed out on this item you can fortunately score it on eBay for less!

image 4

Lollia At Last Perfumed Shower Gel $22 I love the packaging of this shower gel and the smell is even better, I’m obsessed with this. Just looking at this makes me feel clean and refreshed. I think I want to save this for the first day of classes! If you missed out on this item you can find it on eBay.

image 6

Paddywax Ocean Tide + Sea Salt Candle $10 I love the packaging of this candle, its such a beautiful glass jar with a mason twist! The scent is also amazing, and is a great way to hold on to summer as the days get colder. If you missed out on this gorgeous candle you can find it on eBay!

image 5

The Mason Jar Cookie Company $12.99 I’ve always wanted to get this but it always intimidated me! I’m glad that I got this in this box. All you have to do is add butter and eggs. I don’t know what I was so afraid of, its fairly simple. I’m so excited to make these!

image

Bite Beauty Lush Fruit Lip Gloss $22 Unfortunately, they forgot to add this lipgloss in my august box.  I have emailed them to let them know.  Unfortunately for me this isn’t the first time this has happened to me. Luckily they have great customer service and get back to you the next day with a tracking number with the missing item. I would prefer if this never happened, but nobodies perfect.

I payed $39 and have received $128.59 worth of amazing things! This was a huge win for me since I will be using everything in this box. Just so upsetting how price of the box has gone up and the amount we have been receiving back has decreased since they first started this box back in 2012. What did you think of this months box?

PINCHme – Review – July 2014

PINCHme is a website where you signup and complete a survey about yourself. Once you complete your survey you are then allowed to choose samples that they have available that are relevant to you and your lifestyle. Once you receive your sample(s) you then simply try the product and review it. You will get points and badges as you complete more reviews.

Currently they are out of samples for you try but they will be releasing new samples on August 26th at 12pm EDT. They go out so fast so be prepared. I like to check everyday because sometimes they have a single product up for grabs. Thats how I got my first sample!

*prices next to products names are prices for full size products, not the sample sizes I have received*

Garnier Clean + Balancing Daily Exfoliator  $5.29 I really enjoy this face wash. It has a lovely grapefruit smell, it also has these tiny beads that exfoliating while not doing any damage to your skin. There aren’t many exfoliating beads, so its not overwhelming opposed to other face washes that use the beads. This is a face wash that would be perfect for morning, and I’m strongly considering picking one up the next time I go to Rite Aid!

image

Garnier Fructis Marvelous Oil 5 Action Hair Elixir $4.97 I’m usually not a huge fan of hair oil, because my hair gets greasy pretty quickly, but this was very lightweight and didn’t feel heavy on my skin while applying it to my hair. It had a very nice smell too! It left my hair frizz free and super shiny.

image 3

Garnier Fructis Hydra Recharge Shampoo $4.49 This was a really nice smelling shampoo, it didn’t lather all that great, I needed a little more than I would usually take. Also it had a lot of little beads which I thought was weird, it felt like I was washing my hair with face wash, rather than shampoo. Garnier Fructis Hydra Recharge Conditioner $4.05 This also smelled really nice, as most garnier products usually do. As soon as I put this in my hair I could instantly feel my hair get softer even as I left in my hair for less than a minute, it washed out feeling like silk.  Garnier Fructis Hydra Recharge 1 Minute Moisture $5.99  This looked exactly like the conditioner, same color, same texture, it basically was the same. This was instructed to be used right after conditioner and to be left in your hair for a minute, before it is rinsed out. Honestly, I do not see the point in this product, it is basically the exact item as conditioner. My piece of advice is just buy the conditioner, and keep it in longer.

image 8

Tom’s Of Maine Long Lasting Natural Deodorant in Wild Lavender $4.99 This I actually received in FULL SIZE! Pretty cool!  It is an overwhelming scent of lavender. What is really nice about this deodorant is that it moisturizes while using it all day, It does not stain clothes and also does not clump, like most deodorants do, and is actually really long lasting, This deodorant is very silky and will not dry out your skin.

image 5

Gevalia Kaffe Colombia Ground Coffee  $7.99 This coffee was not bitter at all and had a great overall flavor.  I really enjoyed the taste and this packet may seem small but It serves 4 people! It was great to share with the family! We may be buying this coffee as a regular!

image 7 12.31.48 PM

Sinful Colors Professional $2.99 This is the full size nail polish bottle. I love this color its such a beautiful color and I love it on my nails with a tan! Its long lasting nail polish and you really only need one coat of nail polish to get the full color. The nail polish doesn’t streak and is fast drying. This nail polish is defiantly great quality for the price!

image 6

American Crew Classic Power Cleanser Shampoo $10.25  I haven’t been able to use this yet but I’m excited to try it! I just got back from Florida and my hair feels disgusting from all of the product I’ve been using to get it to play nice with the humid air  down there! It has 4 stars on amazon, and actually has a lot of mixed reviews. Saying that it doesn’t lather or they changed their formula. Many people swear by this shampoo though. So I will have to try this out later this week.

Escape Monthly Subscription Box – Review & $10 OFF Coupon – July 2014

Escape Monthly is a subscription box that send you luxury travel items from all over the world!

This month was INDIA!

The box is $45 a month. One of the subscribers will win a trip to the destination of the box’s current themed location! So, Good Luck! Remember to use YOURESCAPE to save $10 off you subscription each month!

I was very excited about this box because I’ve never been to India, so it was very nice to experience through this box!

IMG_1717

INDIA!

IMG_1718

First glance inside the box!

IMG_1719

Organic Grass Fed Ghee $2.95 At first I had no clue what this was, I thought it was baby food. But its actually “butter, made from the milk of a cow.” Which literally most butter is made from so I kind of confused as what makes this ghee and not just regular butter. I think its funny how the name of the company is Pure Indian Foods and yet it is made in New Jersey.

IMG_1723

Amber Perfume Oil $9 A little goes a very long way with this bottle! And thats great news since this bottle is only 5ml! Its very very tiny but luckily the scent makes up for its size! Its not a scent that I would have drifted to on my own, but I’m very glad I came across it in this box, it has kind of a musky scent to begin with, it kind of smells like grandmas – in the best way possible – it truly is a beautiful scent! If you missed this item, you can find it on eBay!

IMG_1726

Saffron Road Korma Simmer Sauce $3.99 This looks so, so, so, so good! This is NON GMO, Vegetarian, No MSG, and Gluten Free! Plus, there are only three easy steps to this extremely easy dinner! I can not wait to try this!

IMG_1724

Moon Travel Guide Taj Mahal, New Delhi & Jaipur $19.90 I understand that this is a destination box and that these boxes are supposed to have these books in them, but I just hate them, I feel like they are a waste of money and space. Although it is a nice book to have around if you are planning on visiting India anytime soon. You can find this item on eBay for less!

IMG_1725

Banyan Botanicals Healthy Hair Oil $14.95 This is a pre shampoo wash. You are supposed to put this in your hair and scalp 30 mins before you wash your hair. This is made out of organic ingredients, but unfortunately smells like cat pee! This hair oil promotes thick and lustrous hair nourishing for all hair types. I have thin hair and all of the reviews say that this will make your hair grow longer and thicker and even make your nails nicer. I’m all for this! You can find this item on eBay.

 IMG_1722

Nemat International Musk Amber Fragrance Sample $2 This is a sample from the same brand as the amber perfume, I feel like amber is a musky fragrance to begin with, so this is just a very overwhelming scent of grandmother. Its a very nice scent though – I do not mind having that scent around. Even though this is a sample size I know that it will last me very long because it is a perfume oil, so a little goes a long way!

IMG_1721

Banyan Botanicals Cedar Eucalyptus Trial Size Bar Soap  $.75 Wow they have this brand at sears! This soap is made with nutrient rich oils and organic ingredients. Hmm, in the pamphlet it list this soap as a full size item and I seem to have received the trial size. Did anyone else get this size too, or was that just me?

IMG_1727

Gouri Puja Indian Bindi $2 This was such a fun item to include! I immediately tore off the green one and wore it around for a few hours!  If you missed out on this item, you’re in luck! You can find this on ebay!

IMG_1728

Maya Kaimal Kashmiri Curry $7.39 It has such a nice spicy scent, it kind of reminds me of sloppy joes in a way. I really wish I could cook dinner with this. Unfortunately, mine opened in the box and didn’t spill too bad but this item needs to be refrigerated once opened so I had to throw this item out. I have contacted Escape Monthly and they have provided the choice of a new bottle or an extra 20% off my next box! They are so kind!

 IMG_1729

Masala Pop Chai Masala Popcorn $3 This is very good popcorn! I swear it taste like ginger snap cookies!I have been receiving a lot of popcorn in subscription boxes lately, so when I saw this I was like great another popcorn with spices. BUT this is actually caramel popcorn, which I have yet to receive from any subscription box. I really enjoy this one though, it is all natural, Gluten Free, Vegan and NON GMO corn. It also was inspired by original Indian tea recipes.

IMG_1720

This box cost $49 a month and I have received $65.93 of some really amazing travel items from India! This box truly makes me want to visit India so badly!

Next Month is PARIS! I can not wait for that box, I haven’t been to paris in years! I hope they include macaroons! It will be shipping August 18!

What did you think of this months box? Will you be signing up for the Paris box?

Seattle Chocolates Total Toffee $3.50 This is the best chocolate toffee bar I have ever had. AND I’m literally obsessed with chocolate and toffee so I make sure to find the best kind, this is definitely the winner! On the side of the bar it says “what happiness taste like” I couldn’t agree more. Use the store locator to find a store near you!

 image 9

Raley’s Confectionary Treatsie Variety Mix $5 I always wanted to try these because they are so pretty colored. They aren’t exactly what I expected, for some reason I thought they would be chewy but they are more like hard sucking candies. They have little designs in the center of each hard candy to let you know what each of them are. Like cherry, lemon, apple, peach, some even have faces!

image 5

Shotwell  Candy Co. “Old Fashioned” Cocktail Caramel $3.50 This is not full size so I only received 3 caramels in this pack.These are extremely sticky and chewy and kind of leave you with a bad taste, its probably the bourbon in them, I’m not a fan of bourbon. If you want to order online they have a flat rate of $5.50 shipping fee which I think is extremely generous!

image 4

Seattle Chocolates Dark Chocolate $3.50 This dark chocolate bar is amazing. I’m a quickly becoming Seattle chocolates #1 fan. Everything is so delicious and creamy. its the perfect mixture of rich and bitter. They have so many flavors I would love to try! Use the store locator to find one near you!

image 10

Shotwell Candy Co. Hand Crushed Espresso Caramel $3.50 I’m usually a big fan of caramels but for some reason these aren’t really doing anything for me. They have a very artificial taste.

image

Seattle Chocolate Milk Chocolate Bar $3.50 I just realized that these bars are Vegan / Non GMO / and gluten free and use coconut oil! So my sister who is allergic to everything can actually have a select few of these candy bars! I’m so impressed with Seattle Chocolates! All of there chocolate bars are so creamy and silky and instantly melt in your mouth!

This box is originally $20 a month but with a discount I only got this for $4.95 and I have received $22.50 worth of really great discoveries! I’m really happy that I got this box and I think I will be renewing my subscription! What did you think of this months box?

Somersaults Dutch Cocoa Crunchy Nuggets $.99 All Natural crunchy nuggets baked with  sunflower seed & toasted grains. They have 2g of sugar but 3g of protein. They are bite sized and crunchy and are actually pretty good. I’m actually surprised. You can taste the sunflower seed in them, so if you are not a fan I’m not sure how you would feel about that. but these aren’t half bad. They have a bitter taste from the dutch cocoa, I assume. These kind of taste like coco puffs.
