Popsugar Must Have – Special Edition – Fall Style – Review – September 2014

Popsugar Must Have Box is a subscription box that is designed to give you the ‘Must Haves’ of the month. The Must Haves in beauty, fitness, food, fashion, and home. Popsugar Must Have Box is $39.95 monthly, $109.85 for 3 months, $214.70 for 6 months, or $429.50 for a yearly subscription. Check out my review for the traditional style box here. BUT, this is a Special edition box which was here for limited time! It is the FALL STYLE BOX which sends you LUXURY items and because it sends you luxury items the price is also higher than the traditional monthly box. The price to indulge in these luxury goodies is $100.

IT HAS FINALLY ARRIVED!

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!

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!

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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.
