Popsugar Must Have Mini Review June 2016

Popsugar's newest venture is the Must Have Mini box.  It's not really a smaller version of the Must Have box because the Mini actually has different items.  I consider it more of an extension to the Must Have box because there are so many wonderful women's lifestyle products to highlight.

Walmart Beauty Box Spring 2016

This post will feature my 3 Walmart Beauty Boxes!  I originally subscribed to the Walmart Classic Beauty Box last year and just added the Trendsetter Beauty Box this season.  Somehow I ended up with 2 Trendsetter boxes and both had different items in them.

 The Trendsetter box has a sunflower on the lid.  The Classic box is the white one in the background.

ModCloth Stylish Surprise Review ~ March 2016

I decided to take the plunge and bought 2 ModCloth Stylish Surprise items.  I ordered an Apparel Stylish Surprise and a Shoe Stylish Surprise.  Part of the fun is the surprise factor of receiving something awesome to wear.  I must admit that I was highly disappointed with both of my items.  The apparel box was $20 and the shoe box was $15, plus tax and shipping.

PinkSeoul Review March 2016

This is a review of the PinkSeoul Plus bi-monthly subscription box.

#lovepinkseoul
I've always wanted to try a Korean beauty subscription box, but for some odd reason, never have.  That is, until I discovered PinkSeoul!  Out of the three different subscription options, I chose the PinkSeoul Plus Box for $49.95 every 2 months.  This box is recommended for those over 35.

Serendipity Review ~ March 2016


Little Lace Box
 The March 2016 Serendipity by Little Lace Box is straight out of the concrete jungle!  I love how these girls make connections.  This month's connection is to the song Empire State of Mind, the soulful, raw, broken down version from Alicia Keys.  Sadly, my favorite NY song is the disco classic, Native New Yorker (childhood memories).  But oddly enough, that song began my infatuation with the city that never sleeps.

FabFitFun VIP Box Spring 2016 Review

FabFitFun Spring 2016
The best thing about the change of the seasons?  Getting my FabFitFun VIP box!  The flirty design on the box was created by Minna So, graphic designer.

Ipsy Review ~ March 2016

Ipsy is saying hello to spring this month.  Ipsters received products that focused selfie-ready skin, flushed cheeks, or a fresh kick of color for the eyes or lips.  The cosmetic bag boasts a floral print that celebrates our incoming season.

Phone Case of the Month Review ~ March 2016

I recently upgraded my phone to a Samsung Galaxy S6 and thought I'd subscribe to Phone Case of the Month.  This is my second case and I love it!

Phone Case of the Month March 2016
 Every case is only $10 a month with free shipping.  It comes in a soft pouch with a coordinating detail card.  The cases are more fashion forward than protective.  However, I've dropped my phone several times in their cases and have not damaged the phone.  Last month's case did crack at the corner though.

Home Chef Review ~ Classic Chicken Piccata

Home Chef is a subscription box service that delivers meals directly to your doorstep!  We have tried Plated and Hello Fresh in the past, with my favorite being Plated.  We had horrible experiences with Hello Fresh.  I happened to stumble upon Home Chef and was really impressed with their menu choices and affordable prices.  Our first box arrived Wednesday, February 24th.

Happy Birthday to Beauty Box 5!  The company turns 4 this month and they are celebrating with some sparkle and shimmer.


It's been a while since I've blogged and I want to try something new with my photos.  Instead of individual pictures of each product, I'm going to streamline to one collective photo with links to each product's website.  Hover over the picture to check it out!
