Since Popsugar just released a spoiler for their Fall Limited Edition box, I figured I’d tag it on to a Must Have review. The Fall Limited Edition is currently on sale and priced at $100. It ships September9th.
Fall Limited Edition Spoiler
Caeden Linea N°1 On-Ear Headphone Faceted Ceramic & Rose Gold
Popsugar is claiming this as a $149.99 value, but it’s priced at $85.05 on Amazon. Still, I love them so I decided to take the risk and order the box. Even at the $85.05 pricetag, it’s still a great value in a $100 box. Let’s just hope the rest of the items aren’t all perfume and caffeine water. Be sure to check back if you want the full review and spoilers.
June Must Have Box
Hat Attack Neutral Diamonds-Printed Sarong
(Suggested Retail: $58)
Description: “Lightweight and easy to pack in your weekend bag, this multifunctional sarong is the perfect beach accessory. Switch up how you tie it and you’ll never get bored with your cover-up!”
Verdict: Gift
This is pretty, and I like the idea of a coverup, but it’s a little bland for my taste. For summer I want vibrant, cheerful colors, so I’ll be gifting this to someone I think will enjoy it.
Sisters of Los Angeles “Cheers” Gold Bottle Opener
(Suggested Retail: $12.00)
Description: ”This golden bar accessory is the ideal companion for your favorite brew, perfect for displaying on a bar cart or cracking open a cold drink at a backyard bash. Cheers!”
Verdict: Like
This is a pretty and sleek little bottle opener. Over the years, I’ve tried to make myself a little bar set with cool looking tools so this will be nice to add to it. This would also be a cute hostess gift when paired with some bottled drinks. I couldn’t find this exact opener on their site, but I linked to a similar version.
Wild and Wolf Ridley’s Games Room “Who Am I?” Quiz
(Suggested Retail: $12.95)
Description: ”Team up with friends to guess the celebrity in this exciting, easy-to-play game that you can bring anywhere. It’s great for parties, too, because it’ll break the ice between even the shyest strangers! ”
Verdict: Okay
I ended up bringing this game to a friend’s house for hanging out and it was okay, but not super interesting. Just some basic trivia It’s a shame too because Wild and Wolf offers ther games that seem like more fun (like the “sing it back” game).
NCLA Born on the 4th Nail Lacquer
(Suggested Retail: $16.00)
Description: “This patriotic (and cruelty-free!) red, white, and blue polish was exclusively developed with Popsugar, and we love how it can stand alone or be worn over another polish.”
Verdict: Hit!
By now you know how I feel about polish. NCLA is a great (and pricey) brand and who doesn’t want red, white and blue glitter polish for the July 4th Holiday? This set was exclusive to Popsugar, which makes it even more special. If you missed out don’t worry NCLA has a ton of amazing polishes (including a mermaid inspired set), that are worth splurging over.
KNOCK KNOCK Are you Ready (For Your Cloose-Up?) Compact
(Suggested Retail: $10.00)
Description: “Don’t worry about sand messing up this cheeky compact mirror – it’s durable ineough to throw into your beach bag for on-the-go touch-ups.”
Verdict: Gift
This compact just isn’t my aesthetic. I know it’s durable because it’s plastic, but I have plenty of other durable compacts that are a little more stylish. I do think this would suit a teen girl and be a great thing for her to throw in her bookbag or gym bag.
Pacifica Underarm Deodorant Wipes
(Suggested Retail: $9.00)
Description: “Staying fresh on the go has never been easier than with these travel-ready underarm wipes, which neutralize odors for hours – all with an aluminum-free, vegan formula.”
Verdict: Hit!
I love when boxes include interesting or luxury versions of every-day toiletry products. I’ve never tried deodorant wipes before and they seem like they’d be perfect to keep in my gym bag or at work for freshening up.
Pressels Sriracha
(Suggested retail value: $1.29)
Description: “Because they’ve got less fat and sodium than other popular chip options, you can enjoy the scrumptious hint of spice in these addictive snacks without feeling guilty.”
Verdict: Like!
One of my boyfriend’s favorite snacks are pretzels so I passed these along to him. As Chief Snack Officer (CSO) he declared they were “good”. If you knew how picky he was you’d know that was quite a compliment.
OVERALL:
Verdict: Just Okay
This is the last box using my prepaid discount, so my total for this was $24.91, and the estimated retail came out to $119.24 At that price it’s a great deal, but overall the box was just a touch ho-hum for my taste. The sarong and trivia game were a bit bland, and the compact was definitely geared toward a younger subscriber. I did like some items, but they were the less expensive of the bunch. Not a terrible box by any stretch, but not all that interesting. I’m hoping to see some more fashion-forward items in the fall boxes.
