Oh dear, just when I thought POPSUGAR already impressed me enough with previous three MustHave boxes, they go and blow it out of the park in December again. Seriously, ladies, this box is the bomb! The products inside couldn’t have been more perfect for the Holiday season: we got a very pretty scarf, gift tags, cookie mix, jewelry, pretty bowl, and glamorous makeup. But what am I babbling on about, why don’t you scroll down and see for yourself.
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.

SPUN by Subtle Luxury Speckled Metallic Scarf – Alright, this might be “yet another scarf” from POPSUGAR, but isn’t the design perfect for the Holidays? It reminds me of gold confetti on the New Year’s Eve and Christmas tree lights glimmering in the evening. It’s simply beautiful! The scarf itself is fairly lightweight and not particularly soft, but I like it a lot because it’s neutral and works with many different outfits.
Sparklepop Sydney Necklace – I heard of Sparklepop before but never knew what it was until now. This necklace comes on a long 18K gold-plated chain and features one single premium-quality crystal that catches the light like it’s a fancy diamond. The pictures don’t do it justice!
And another look at it. So pretty!
Canvas Dauville Platinum Bowl – What a beautiful bowl this is! Its delicate white exterior is paired with a shiny silvery interior that make up a very chic combination. It can be used for many things, like small snacks, jewelry, or fragrance samples in one spot so they’re easy to reach. It fits in so well with my bedroom decor, so that’s where I’m going to keep mine.
Smashbox Be Legendary Long Wear Lip Lacquer – I’ve been curious about this liquid lipstick, but I never thought we’d get one in a POPSUGAR box. The only problem I have is the color, which is quite a bit bolder than I would normally wear. So far I have not decided what I want to do with it, I might even try it out just to see if I like the formula. Ideally, I would love to purchase a few YSL Glossy Stains, but Smashbox prices are more in line with my budget right now.
Knot & Bow Parcel Tags – These handmade parcel tags are really cute, and I even used a few of them to label Christmas presents this year. They are very easy to write on, too!
Williams-Sonoma Cupcake Mix in Vanilla Bean – Vanilla bean scented and flavored products are one of my many weaknesses, so it’s no wonder that I nearly started salivating while reading the description of this fancy cupcake mix. I plan to keep this mix until Valentine’s day and make cute cupcakes with heart sprinkles on top as a dessert. Fingers crossed they turn out well 🙂
THE VERDICT
See what I meant? A very solid box indeed, and clearly Holiday-inspired. I love it when everything inside my MustHave box is easily giftable, even if I’m keeping it all for myself. The quality of products is always outstanding, and the retail value is times and times higher than what I paid. This might be one of the best boxes I’ve ever received!

This was a great box this month. The necklace and scarf are gorgeous. I’ve been wearing that lip color every other day, and my husband and daughter made the cupcakes a week ago… they were good.

I loved my Dec. box so much, I bought one for my niece.

I love everything in this box! Popsugar can have the best curated items or go really left. But the past two months have been really nice.
