PopSugar Must Have May 2014

 PopSugar Must Have boxes are like a Christmas stocking in a box every month. Last month my box came late in the month. This month is was earlier. I hadn't seen any spoilers, so I was pretty excited to open my box.


PopSugar Must Have is a monthly subscription box of hand-selected items in beauty, fashion, home, fitness, and food. It's not a box of sample items. I love the variety . . .it's not just make-up or food or whatever.  Everything is full-sized. Price is $39.95 per month, and they have 3-, 6-, and 12-month plans that lower the effective monthly box. Seems that almost every month there is a $10OFF code that can be found on-line. This month it's MAY10. So, you could un-subscribe and subscribe on a regular basis to get the best deal, while not missing out. They also offer single-purchase premium boxes at different times of the year.




Must Have Beauty: Smell Bent St. Tropez Dispenser. 1.7 ounce body spray. I like it. It's fresh and beachy and does make me feel like summer is already here. While the company uses natural products, instead of synthetics, they are not strictly vegan. Some products contain beeswax or ambergris. This scent has jasmine, coconut, and aloe vera . . .and a light breeze over a vintage musk. Retail $45.





Must Have Home: Zing Anything Citrus Zinger. Perfect for me. I always carry a water bottle and I do like a hint of flavor. This lets me flavor  with fresh fruit . . . or cucumber and mint. . .and enjoy the flavor. I'm happy. Retail? $17.







Must Have Home: Kerry Cassill Eye Mask. I have to get up early and often go to bed before it's completely dark . . .or my spouse is reading and lights are on. This helps. I have other eye masks, but this one is soft. I also have a few long and overnight flights coming up, so I'm sure to use this often in the next few months. Retail. $24.









Must Have Beauty:
Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Pool Boy Nail Lacquer. It's a fun beachy color that I am sure to be using on my toes. It takes me away from my standards reds, so I'm looking forward to enjoying it. Retail $10.


Must Have Fitness: Tone it Up One Day Fat Blast. I will admit I haven't put it in the DVD player yet, and I'm sure it won't work unless I use it. I used to be big into the work-out videos and I hate going to the gym. This might help get me going again at home. Each work-out is 30 minutes and there are 2 on the disc. The pictures on the back look manageable with some yoga-like positions, some strength work, and some aerobics. I need to work on my core and I hope this will do it. Retail $15.



Must Have Food: Hi I'm Skinny Sticks Multi-Grain Sweet Onion. Also tasty, but I'm not a sweet onion kind of girl. Once I got past the sweet onion, the sticks themselves were awesome with a great burst of flavor. My husband likes them and I may try them in different flavors. Retail $4.




Overall, I'm pretty stoked about this subscription. I paid $89.95 for a 3-month subscription (which will auto-renew at $99.95) if I don't cancel and re-subscribe. That comes to about $33.32/box. And, since you know I like a bargain, I was pleased that the box contained $115 worth of items. 

I can hardly wait to see what June has in store.
