A Closer Look:


Henri Bendel Signature Stripe Canvas Dopp Kit - RV $28


This was one of the spoilers PopSugar sent out last week that made me excited for this box to arrive.  


The bag has a hinge opening and zipper closure.  It will be great for traveling and putting hair or make-up products in.  I'll definitely use it a lot!  There was also a coupon code for 20% off my next purchase at Henri Bendel.  

Supergoop! Defense Refresh Setting Mist SPF 50 - RV $28


I feel like I've gotten a lot of Supergoop products in subscription boxes recently.  I like the concept of a setting mist and that it's SPF 50, so I'll probably keep this one and put some of the other ones I haven't opened on eBay.  I've read you have to shake this product up really good (just something to keep in mind).    

Sorial Card Case - RV $28


This is a cute little case and it's a different design than I've ever seen before.  I love the color (red) too!


It also came with a coupon code to receive $25 off my next purchase of $25 on the website.  There's a purse available for $25 that I tried to buy, but the code said it wasn't valid.  I e-mailed customer service about it and will keep you posted on what happens.  

PopDental Portable Toothbrush - RV $19.99


At first I was really excited about this toothbrush b/c I thought it was an electric one. However, this one vibrates.  (Something I've never seen/heard of before).  It's really odd to use b/c it just vibrates rapidly against your teeth.  Not sure if it's doing anything cleaning-wise or not, so that was kind of a disappointment.  It comes with a replacement head and is in a nice, hard case.  I might throw it in my desk drawer and use it as a regular toothbrush at work or when I travel.

Yes to Blueberries Cleansing Facial Wipes - 25 wipes - RV $5.99


This is a nice, big package of wipes.  They're big too, so they would be perfect for camping or to take to the gym.  The only thing I don't like about the Yes (to Blueberries, Tomatoes, etc.) products is that after using them, I always have to rinse my face off b/c I can feel the product residue.  I've mainly been using them when I get home from work to wash my make-up off (and then wash my face fully before I go to bed).

The Good Bean Fruit & No-Nut Bar - RV $1.99


It's always fun to try something new and I love that PopSugar always includes at least one food item in each box.  This little bar was tasty and I like the ingredients in it.
Hallmark Signature Greeting Cards - Set of 3 - RV $14.97+


Besides the Henri Bendel bag, these are my favorite item(s) from the box.  


It's actually a set of 3 cards and one of them can be hung on the wall.  I'm always happy to receive cards in a box b/c I'm horrible at planning ahead and buying them for special occasions.  There were different variations sent out, but I LOVE the ones I received (one for a birthday, one for a wedding, and one all-occasion card).    

VERDICT:  With my 3-month subscription, this box averages out to $37.57/month and it had a retail value of $126.94.  The bag, toothbrush, and cards were definitely worth that!  Though I may not have LOVED all the items in this box, they're all very practical and I will definitely use them all.  This was the last month of my 3-month subscription and I definitely plan on continuing on a month-to-month basis.  

Have you checked out PopSugar yet?  If so, what did you think?

XOXO,
Stephanie
