POPSUGAR Must Have Box Review – August 2014

I know I’m super late to the game but I jus found out the necklace and earrings were in this box. If anyone does not want their earrings or necklace and is willing to sell not swap please email me an veronica.rabago(at)gmail(dot)com with your item and price. I am very interested!!!

Hi! This is probably a long shot, but would anyone be willing to sell their August box? Or, does anyone know a website where there are people who sell the subscription boxes they don’t want? This box looks like it was curated for me! I signed up for Popsugar going forward, but I love the August box! Thanks for your help! 🙂

Can someone please tell me if the candies and sprinkles are mixed into the cookie mix or are in a separate package? I want to make these, but if those are mixed in I have to wait until my daughter is out of the house. She can’t have artificial colors, they make her mouth swell up and look like she got slapped silly.

Thanks

My box FINALLY arrived, hurrah! I was braced for a giant mess after reading everyone’s comments, but I got lucky and only had a tiny bit of shower gel leakage, fully contained by the bag. The disappointing part was that I got the Kendra Scott necklace instead of earrings, as I had hoped for. If anyone has the earrings with gold trim and wants to swap for the necklace, please let me know! I’m new to swaps so I’m happy to ship first. https://swap.mysubscriptionaddiction.com/user/5736/profile

Hi! I just subscribed this month and I’m going to get my first box on Sept (so excited!!!!), I would love to gift a box to some friends but I just want to do one box, not a series of 3. Is there a way I can do that? I couldn’t find the option.

I just received my box. The candle shattered in shipment and coated everything with tiny glass shards. The shower gel filled up the bubble sack it leaked so much. It’s almost empty. Sliced my thumb on the candle and keep getting tiny glass shards stuck in my fingers. I love PS, but holy heck is this the worst shipment ever. It injured me. I emailed them, lots of pics, hoping they can help. There’s even glass shards stuck in the cookie mix and I got one in the back of my neck putting in the necklace.

Would anyone want to trade the silver/slate earrings for the necklace? Let me know! [email protected]

I FINALLY! Got my Popsugar box in today. I know every box is not going to be perfect, yet the only thing I think I’m going to use is the plastic purple snack container. — I got the necklace, delicate, pretty yet not my style. The shower gel is not to my liking I like sweet scents verses floral, the lip gloss, the color is to bright for me, plus I have to many lip glosses, the snack bar, bla, probably keep that for when I get really hungry. The cookie mix, will probably be more to ship it then it’s worth. — Very disapointed in this box — It is just not the box for me, I know others have expressed interest in swapping and perhaps purchasing this sold out box. Most the items are up for swap right now. Might also consider selling some of the items, if I don’t get swap requests for items i really want. — On a positive note all the items arrived nicely and they did not put earrings in the box, which I can not wear. If only I liked the necklace it would be more of good box for me.

Has anyone made the cookies yet? I made them according to the instructions and they came out horribly…I thought maybe the instructions were wrong, and sure enough, according to the website you’re supposed to add a whole stick of butter (the instructions on my package say to add 1/4 cup!)

Should I ask them for a refund? I was really excited about these cookies! Did this happen to anyone else?

If anybody would like the Kendra Scott necklace and would like to trade for something else either from a previous box or some other interesting combo let me know! I have enough necklaces and this isn’t really “me”!

Thanks…you can email me at: [email protected]

I was actually a little disappointed when I saw the spoiler for this box. I thought I wouldn’t like anything, but the candle and Lollia bath gel. As it turns out, I loved the box and the only item from it I swapped was the cookie mix! I got the Kendra Scott earrings with the gold trim and LOVE them. Of course, I was most pleased with the candle and bath gel, but I ended up liking the Goodbyn container way more than I thought I would. The lip gloss is a nice color and will get worn on the weekends when I don’t do full make-up and hair. So overall, the August PopSugar box was a big winner and I am definitely looking forward to next month’s box!

I have the Black Cat’s Eye Necklace. Looking for the earrings w/ the gold trim. Does anyone want to trade?

I want this box. I guess it is too late to subscribe and get this months box??

I have the necklace in black cats eye if anyone would like to swap for the slate/brass earrings. Thanks!

Well I can see I picked the right month to try the POPSUGAR box! Wow! Fingers crossed I get the earrings because I’ve been wanting a pair for ages! I have and love several Bite glosses, so that’s a win. And everything else looks like fun stuff I will definitely use. Can’t wait for it to arrive!

Liz!! That sept. 2012 review made me wish for a time machine!! That box was LOADED! I loved my box this month they have really set the bar so high for ALL sub boxes. Good show!

Your comment about “food sorcery” made me laugh! Thank you for the review 🙂

wow if I thought I was going to get a necklace I would have bought this box for sure……what kept me from getting it was the earrings. too bad for PS. I am not disappointed because nothing else in the box is really special, like shower gel, cookie mix and the rest.

I have the earrings and would love to trade for a necklace. If anyone wants to trade – E-mail me at kbmmc at hot mail. Put POPSUGAR in all caps – thanks!!! I have over 200 positive reviews on a swap site called makeup alley. Thanks!

I usually never post comments and I am a huge fan of PopSugar and their subscription boxes. Unfortunately, when I opened my box, it looked like it had been rummaged through. The tissue paper was shoved up towards the top of the box and crumpled, my jewelry (I got the earrings) were out of the little bag and several of the packages that my products came in (lip gloss, candle) were smashed. I didn’t even get a product card! I emailed customer service and they blamed it on the shipping process, but I have very strong doubts that that is the case. For close to $45.00 a month, I am hoping that this doesn’t happen again otherwise I might reconsider.

I am new to PopSugar, ordered this box as part of a 3-month subscription on August 7. I got a email confirming my order, but haven’t gotten a shipping email yet. I live in NC. When should I start worrying that I haven’t heard from them, and what’s the best approach to get in touch? Thanks for the help, everyone!

I felt bad for my dogs. Sudsy, Popsugar, and Bespoke arrived today. Both Popsugar and Sudsy had smells that the dogs kept insisting had to be BarkBox. Even the cats came over to investigate. I think this is my favorite box thus far.

Thank you PopSugar for paying attention to our profiles. I love the necklace. It’s delicate and makes for a great layering piece. It was a nice touch to include the care directions.

Everyone enjoys the Paddywax candle. Ocean Tide & Sea Salt is a nice way to remember the end of the summer. This is my second Paddywax candle. My first one came in the July Nicky Hilton Fancy box. I hope to see more because I do like them. Can I hope to receive one per month from various boxes???

The Goodbyn will be useful in our house. I can’t tell if the color is deep blue or purple. I took it outside and it looks purple, but inside it looks cobalt. I got a chuckle that the ages of use were from 5-120.

I tried the Bite and it’s sticky. I’ll have to read the comments to find out how to fix that. Can’t wait to try the Lollia which when I smell it I have a deja vu feeling. It’s driving me nuts that I can’t place it.

I will be making the cookies with my younger son. My older son ate the protein bar and said it tasted gross. The dogs wanted to eat the bar. It made me wonder what they thought it should be.

I’m glad it arrived early instead of next Wednesday.

This was my first box from POPSUGAR and I love it. Well, mostly. I am a bit disappointed that I didn’t get the earrings. 🙁 I can’t wear necklaces…some sort of weird claustrophobic thing I have lol. I also can’t swap cuz I’m a noob. I guess the necklace is going to make a lovely Christmas present!
Oh, and the turkish towel is AWESOME!

they could have put 10 of those candles in the box and i woulda been happy lol .. i like the box ….. but it seems that its never going to arrive . its coming from CA, and i live in arizona, its taken 9 days so far .. this is insane ! all you east coasters already got yours .. what the heck !
