October Popsugar Must Have Review

The Box: Popsugar Must Have

The Cost: $35; $39.95 a month starting November 5th

The Goods: A variety of home, beauty, fashion, and food items.

The Wet Brush: ($14)  I was actually pleasantly surprised by this brush.  I usually don't brush my hair while it's damp because my hair becomes a giant matted mess when it's wet.  I noticed a lot less fallout and breakage when I used this brush versus my usual one.

Julep Freedom Topcoat & Millie Polish: ($18 & $14)  This is actually the first time I've used Julep polish.  I really like the dark, indigo color, but I was disappointed by the wear of these.  I used them with my usual base coat and had significant chipping within a couple days.

NYX Smokey Shadow Palette: ($7)  I love NYX shadows. They're really pigmented for the price, and these dark shadows work well as liners too.

NYX Liquid Brown Liner: ($6)  I don't usually wear brown liners, but this one is pretty dark so I might actually use it anyway.

Jane Tran Thin Metallic Bobby Pins: ($12)  These are pretty and all, but I'm not a fan.  They were difficult to use and pulled my hair out when I removed them.  No thanks.

The Can't Cook Book: ($16.76)  This would make a really cute gift for someone who isn't extremely comfortable in the kitchen.  In addition to recipes, it has everything from directions for mincing garlic to a guide to knives and tools.

Gorjana Bali Bead Bracelet: ($45)  Popsugar loves Gorjana.  Fortunately, I do too.  This is a really cute, delicate neon bracelet.  Gold jewelry is slowly growing on me.  I'll probably like it by the time silver comes back into the spotlight.

The Crispery Halloween Sprinkled Crispycake: ($3.95)  I'm trying to save this to take as a snack for my plane ride next week, but it's been SO hard to resist the temptation.

Stitch Fix Discount Code:  ($20)  This gives you $20 off if you purchase something in your fix.  I have mixed feelings about Stitch Fix, but maybe I'll give it another go.

This box was really "meh" for me.  Even though I'll use most of the things I got, none of the pieces made me super excited.  There's been a lot of backlash over the price increase, but I still enjoy Popsugar over all so I'll probably stick it out for a while longer.
