Just when I thought nothing could possibly beat the March box, the April box arrived, full of pleasant surprises! I admit, I totally spoiled the contents by peeking at all of the possible spoilers on Instagram and other Social Media, so I knew exactly what was coming, but that didn’t make the experience any less thrilling.
HOW IT WORKS
With POPSUGAR Must Have, you’ll get an exciting monthly box, full of hand-selected items from POPSUGAR editors. Each box will include a variety of full-sized products and premium items worth over $100 (ARV). It costs $39.95/month and you can use the code REFERF5 to get a special one-time $5 discount off your first box.

Blueavocado Shopper Reusable Bag – What a fun idea, isn’t it? The zipper opens and the bag just unwraps itself. The size is pretty good too, it roughtly has dimensions of an iPad sleeve, so it will fit in most of my bags just fine, except for the smallest ones. This bag will work great as a grocery tote or as a beach bag, and I’m certain I will get a lot of use out of it.
Too Faced Natural Eyes Palette – Now that’s what I call Must Have Beauty! This palette is a new version of their previous one and features three new shades. I haven’t swatched it yet because I plan to maybe do a full blog review on it, so I need it intact for the pictures, but I’m just super excited to give it a shot.
Graphic Image Pocket Notebook – This is a high quality notebook wrapped in real calfskin leather flexible cover, and the size is great for writing down small notes. I already have one that I use regularly, so this will be the backup. But I gotta say, the craftsmanship is wonderful!
Caldrea Rosewater Driftwood Soap – I always buy Caldrea products when I spot them at TJ Maxx; their laundry detergent and fabric softener are especially great. I tried some Caldrea soap samples before, and they all seemed really nice, so I’m glad to finally get my hands on a full-sized bottle. After reading the label, I thought the fragrance might be a bit too mature, but oddly enough it has just enough bitterness and woodsy notes to overpower the rose. It really works!
Fresh Pastry Stand Totally Awesome Tea Towel Set – I don’t really get the pop art feel of these towels, so I will probably use them for wiping dishes and keeping the pastry warm. The quality is really good, and looking at the brand’s Etsy shop, it looks like they make these towels with many other awesome prints. I’m actually happy to see an Etsy seller featured in a MustHave box, that’s a really nice way to get their name out there, and it’s great that POPSUGAR supports small businesses.
[Extra] Naturebox POPSUGAR Exclusive Snack Mix – This mix got very mixed reviews [no pun intended!]: some ladies loved it, while others thought it was the most disgusting thing on Earth, so they fed it to squirrels. I personally thought it was interesting, but not my favorite. It needed more salt and other spices, because it all felt a bit too raw. In case you’re wondering, this medley includes almonds, dried soybeans, corn, cranberries, and rice cracker stripes.
THE VERDICT
Well, what did I say? Impressive selection, isn’t it? POPSUGAR really outdid themselves, because this box had so many useful and pretty things, and all of them are easily giftable.

Nomnom on that snack mix!!!! This looks like a great sub box month!
Such an awesome box… I can’t wait to get mine, I’m so excited 😀
Now that is a good value box. I would have been very happy to receive it.
This box had some nice things in it, but really I only loved the Too-Faced palette. I just wouldn’t pay $18 normally for a set of tea towels, or even buy a blank journal that wasn’t deeply on sale. The investment on a box like this is just too high for the risk, though this month, it paid off with that palette! Whew!
Wow! What an amazing box! I am going to have to subscribe one of these days!
I am still waiting for the arrival of mine! You have me salivating over it!
The box is such a good value and I love that it included the Too Faced Palette!
I JUSTTTTT Got mine today! Totally drooling over the Too Faced palette but I dare not use it until it has been photographed!
It was a great month just by the too faced palette
So far the best box from Popsugar, based from what I’ve seen.
that notebook is so cute
Wow, this is a very impressive box for sure!
OMG what an awesome box this month! I want the natural eye palette!
