I’m so excited to announce that I’m continuing my partnership with POPSUGAR and they’ve sent me the January Must Have Box to review! The theme of this box was all about being healthy which I think is perfect since a lot of us are focusing on our health for the new year. Here’s what I got:
Goldfaden MD Fresh a Peel Multi Acid Resurfacing Peel
I’ll admit, I’ve never tried a peel before but I’m looking forward to testing this out and see what the results are going to be like. Peels are typically used to remove dead skin cells and works well for damaged skin from problems such as acne. They also work well if you have dull, dry skin and need some brightness. Overall, I thought this went perfectly with the “health” and “renewal” theme of this month’s box.
May Designs Desk Calendar
I was so excited to see that POPSUGAR had teamed up with May Designs! I actually worked with them for my back to school planner giveaway last year and have been a big fan of their designs. I actually don’t own a desk calendar but thought this one was gorgeous and doesn’t take up much room on a desk. Plus it came with a little stand! So cute.
Daily Concepts Your Hair Wrap Towel
I’m not sure why but many subscription boxes seem to include hair towels so I wasn’t too excited about this. Probably cause I forget I have these (they’re so small!) and use a regular towel on my hair instead haha. On the bright side, this one is super soft and comes in a reusable pouch so you can take it with you when you travel!
Instant Happy Notes
At first when I saw this, I thought it was cute but would I actually use this? Probably not haha. It’s just sticky notes with inspirational sayings and illustrations on them. I don’t know, I would’ve preferred another beauty item! haha.
Dean & Deluca Peppermint Loose Leaf Tea
When I interned in NYC, I was obsessed with Dean & Deluca (my wallet, not too much) so this drink is a perfect item to include in this Must Have Box. You can drink it hot or cold and it’s quite a generous amount!
Manduka Yoga Mat Towel
I’ve never actually heard of mat towels before this but it’s a sweat-resistant towel that’s supposed to go on top of your yoga mat. I don’t think it would be too comfortable doing yoga poses with this towel on top (I’m clumsy and would probably slip!) so instead I use it as just a regular towel since I’m usually pouring with sweat during class. Definitely needed!
Glade Coconut and Beach Woods Candle
LOVE the smell of this but too bad I don’t use candles! haha. I work part-time at a perfume shop and get a headache easily from fragrances so that’s why I stay away from candles.
Overall, there was a lot of stuff that I just don’t really need that was included in this month’s box and I think others might like it more than me. What can I say, I’m just a picky person lol. But it wasn’t completely awful but I’m looking forward to the February box!
Thanks for reading,
