The July 2016 Popsugar Must Have box was all about “sunny, retro, fun, vintage, playful, cheeky, warm” and has a glossy fold-out product information card that lets you know about the items chosen for your box with a photo and a retail value for each product. Sooo – what has it got in its pocketses????…
Sorry, wrong genre! Let’s explore our July box!
Sachajuan – Hair in the Sun Full Size 4.2 oz ($32)
This is sunscreen for your hair plus a styling product all in one. It keeps your hair color vibrant and protects your locks from UV rays while in the pool or ocean until you wash it out. Plus it works as a styling cream to keep your hair in place.
House of Pom – 6 Emoji Cocktail Napkins ($25)
This is a cute set of cocktail napkins with a different decoration stitched onto each one. They feel like they might be linen but there is no fabric label so I can’t be sure.
Michael Stars – Porcelain Skinny Scarf ($30)
Very cute cotton/vicose open weave fabric scarf that is perfect for summertime wear. It is white with a black oversized paisley pattern, just enough pretty to look like you fancied up a bit!
Urban Outfitters Flamingo Pin ($10)
The product information card says it is supposed to be a Pintrill pineapple pin but they must have run out. And I like flamingos better, anyhow! Or “Mingos,” as Little G says when we walk through the garden department at Lowes. “Grandma – look at ALL THE MINGOS!!”
Sunnylife Inflatable Swan Drink Holder ($18)
This is a blow up swan that holds 4 drinks. Hmmm. No pool here but I do like a bit of whimsy! I think I’ll take it on our RV trip and take pictures of it in different parts of the country this fall!
European Wax Center – “Oh My Brow” Brow Highlighter Crayon in Pearl Full Size ($19)
LOVE IT! This is a soft illuminating highlighter crayon that you can use along the brow bone and above the arch to give them a boost. Plus you can use it on your cheeks to give yourself a little glow. Or wherever.
Joe Chips – Classic Sea Salt Retro Potato Chips 2 oz ($1.49)
These are just classic potato chips, no fancy seasonings. They are what you think of first when you think of potato chips! And they were very tasty!
Extra Special – Trove Gift Card ($20)
They included a gift card to Trove, a company that sells on-trend, customizable jewelry.
The cost of the items in the July 2016 Popsugar Must Have box came to $135.49, not counting the gift card. That is a lot of goodies in a $40 subscription box! I thought they curated the contents well to fit the summer theme and keep it light and playful. What did you think? What was your favorite July 2016 Popsugar Must Have item?
This is the best box I have seen in a while!! I love everything in it. The Emoji Cocktail Napkins and the Sunnylife Inflatable Swan Drink Holder are wicked cool!!
Oh my goodness. Wow! However… I’ve seen reviews for a handful of Popsugar Must-Have boxes (and yes, I’d looooove a subscription!), and this might be my least favorite. All is well, though, and totally A+ in my book– all because of that SWAN! I am SWOONING over that swan.
Can use the swan in the middle of a blanket at a picnic. Can find uses even if you don’t have a pool.
Great mix of useful and fun. That inflatable drink holder is too funny and my grandkids would love it; the hair sunscreen is a great thing to try.
