Subscription Sunday | October PopSugar MustHave Box

Posted on October 20, 2013 by Adventures in Polishland

Happy Subscription Sunday! Today I have a somewhat sad post – it’s my last PopSugar MustHave Box. While PopSugar is definitely my favorite subscription service, it’s also the most expensive. I was willing to make room in my tight budget for $35 per month, but I got an email from the company saying they are raising its prices to $39.95 come November 4, and I just wasn’t willing to pay that much. Thankfully, the October box is a great way to honor my love for PopSugar. Let me show you the amazing products!

First up are three Must Have Beauty products! The first item is a nail polish duo from Julep that contained the Freedom Polymer Top Coat and Char, a beautiful blue polish. I personally think the Freedom Top Coat is horrible, but I’m so happy to have Char. The retail value for this duo is $32!

Next, I got two items from NYX Cosmetics. The first is the Smokey Fumé Palette complete with six eyeshadows, and the next is the Liquid Eyeliner in Black. These products retail for $7 and $6 respectively. I’ve been wanting to try out some NYX products, so I’m really glad to have these!

The next Must Have Beauty product is The Wet Brush, which retails for $14. This is one of those products that seem really gimmicky, but it actually works! I am so impressed with this brush, and my hair is loving it. I highly recommend this product!

Now onto Must Have Fashion! First is the Gorjana Charity Bali Bead Bracelet. Not only do I love the hot pink color, but 100% of the proceeds for this $45 bracelet is donated to Breast Cancer research. Super cute, and a great cause! As a special extra this month, PopSugar threw in a $20 promo code to Stitch Fix, a website I’ll have to check out. Plus, I also got some cute bobby pins from Jane Tran that retail for $12.

My favorite item in my October Box is The Can’t Cook Book by Jessica Seinfeld. I feel like this book was made just for me! I struggle with cooking, and this book is so well-written and includes amazing graphics and directions. Plus, there are a lot of vegetarian recipes that fit my lifestyle. I can’t wait to try it out! This book retails for $27.99.

Last but not least is a Must Have Food item from The Crispery. This Halloween Crispycake is a huge treat! If you love marshmallows, this is for you. It retails for $3.95!

All in all, I’m glad my last PopSugar MustHave Box was a great one! The total retail value was $167.94, and I’m loving the items. If you have room for PopSugar in your budget, I highly recommend this box. It’s a great variety, and is so exciting to get in the mail. Plus, if you sign up before November 4th, you can lock in the $35 price by signing up for a 3-month subscription. You will pay in advance, but use code MUSTHAVE10 to get $10 off your purchase HERE. Let me know what you think of PopSugar MustHave in the comments!

Subscription Sunday | September PopSugar MustHave Box

Posted on September 22, 2013September 20, 2013 by Adventures in Polishland

Happy Subscription Sunday! It’s time for what has easily become my favorite subscription service, PopSugar MustHave! Yes, this box is a whopping $35 per month, but I honestly believe it is so worth it. This month I happily received some items that I’ve been wanting to purchase, but just hadn’t got around to it yet. It was so great to get those items in my box, plus some more goodies. Let me show you what was in my September PopSugar MustHave Box!

First up is a book entitled P.S. You’re Invited… by Erica Domesk that features over 40 do-it-yourself projects. I am so excited to receive this book! I love DIY projects, and this book has some really unique ideas. Plus, it is a smart book, which means there are corresponding videos to watch online. I can’t wait to try out some of the projects! This book retails for $26 (but try Amazon for $17!).

Next up is the Botanical Coaster Set from Rifle Paper Co. I was desperately on the hunt for a cute but affordable set of coasters, but I couldn’t find any that I liked. I’m absolutely loving this floral pattern, and now I can stop using napkins as coasters! This set of eight retails for $16.00.

I was also looking for a great diffuser for my room! Imagine my surprise when this amazing, $46 diffuser from Barr-Co was in my box! This scent is a mix of milk, oatmeal, vanilla, and velvetier, and is so amazing. It’s light enough that it’s not overpowering, yet strong enough that my room smells perfect. This diffuser is definitely a Must Have product for the home!

The next item is a set Kitsch Headbands. These are basically yoga-style hair ties in headband form! A set retails for about $11.99, and I think this is a great item for the box. I also got a $25 gift card to Shoptiques, an online store. I can’t wait to spend it!

Last but not least, we have the food items! Yum! First is a pack of Sharkies, organic energy sports chews. Basically, these are like fruit snacks that give you a burst of natural energy. They were delicious, but so sticky. Be careful when eating them! I also got a bar of That’s it. This was so good, and just an apple and pear bar. I would definitely buy more of these. The retail prices for these items are $1.48 and $1.67 respectively.

All in all, my September PopSugar MustHave box has a total retail value of $128.14! Not only did I get two items that I was looking to buy, but I got yummy snacks that I’ve already enjoyed, and some bonus goodies as well. This box is the best! I highly recommend it. If you’d like to join, simply click HERE and enter code REFERFRIEND at checkout to get $5 off your first month. You will love it just as much as I do!

Subscription Sunday | August PopSugar MustHave Box

Posted on August 11, 2013August 16, 2013 by Adventures in Polishland

Happy Subscription Sunday! Today I have another unboxing of my favorite monthly subscription, the PopSugar MustHave Box! But before I show you all of the goodies, I wanted to remind you that the Hot Days, Hotter Nights Giveaway is going on right now, and also let you know that starting tomorrow it is Back to School Week here at Adventures in Polishland! Be sure to tune in every day to get psyched for Back to School. Now, onto the regularly scheduled Subscription Sunday!

The PopSugar MustHave Box is a lifestyle box filled with all types of goodies from makeup to home decor and everything in between. For $35 per month, you’ll receive a box worth at least $100. Here is a sneak peek of everything in my August box. It is jam packed, and it was heavy! Let me go ahead and share everything that is inside!

First up is a special item celebrating one year of the PopSugar box! This Open Circle Necklace from Gorjana retails for $65 and is 18k gold plated. I love the classic style, and will be sure to wear it! Plus, this item alone is already worth more than what I paid for the entire box!

Now onto the Must Have Home category! On the left is a Weekly To-Dos planner from May Designs. This planner retails for $20, and is so cute! I’m loving the chevron pattern. I also like that the pages inside are customizable, and not set to any specific year in particular. That means I can use it when I please, and never waste the pages! I’ll be sure to use this planner when school begins!

On the right is an All-in-One Stackable Bento Lunch Box from Bentgo. It retails for $19.99 and even includes cutlery! I would have never picked out this lunch box for myself, but I’m so glad to have it. It will encourage me to bring my lunch to school instead of buying one. Plus, I love the cute green color, and all of the separate compartments. It’s even microwavable!

The last Must Have Home item is this Apple Bowl from Lunares. This bowl retails for around $21.28, as it can only be purchased in a set from the Lunares website. I think this bowl is cute — it is perfect for a teacher gift or hostess gift for fall! This is my least favorite item in the box this month, just because it doesn’t fit into my lifestyle well. Maybe I’ll put some candies in it this fall!

Moving on to Must Have Beauty! The first two items on the left are from Dermalogica, and are the Precleanse and Special Cleansing Gel respectively. These travel sizes retail for a total of $19.50! I’ve never tried any Dermalogica products before, so I’m quite excited to see how these work. It’s such a treat to have high end skincare in this box! I would never be able to purchase these items on my own.

The next beauty item is the Lulah Body Wash in Magnolia Fig. This body wash retails for $11.25 and smells divine! I can’t wait to use it. It is definitely a fragranced body wash, so if you don’t like strong scents this is not for you. Otherwise, it seems so luxurious! I even love the packaging!

The last item in my August Box is a Special Extra from the brand Nature Box. I got dried Granny Smith Apples, and they taste amazing! I love that PopSugar includes healthy snacks! This one retails for $3.99, but cannot be purchased separately since Nature Box is a subscription program! You can join for 50% off by going to naturebox.com/popsugar. I’m not currently a member, but if you are let me know what you think!

And that is everything in my August PopSugar MustHave Box! The total retail value is $161.01! What an unbelievable box! I have to say that each month PopSugar gets better and better. If you’re looking for an all-around amazing subscription, I highly recommend it. Join HERE and enter code REFER5 at checkout to get $5 off your first box.
