Woke up to my mom's pic of her box with lots of smiley & heart emojis so I'm glad one of the boxes I paid full price for would be appreciated.

This particular box is not for me. I have no need/desire to use any of these things included. Hell, I wouldn't even have paid $10 for this. I dont paint my nails lol im still trying to get rid of those nail wraps from december. I would've been excited for the dial body wash except I have a stockpile of body wash! Either way, body wash is body wash & is probably the most useful thing in the box for me, although its addition is rather off lol

If this box is up your alley, good for you! Im glad someone is enjoying this.

Are we able to cancel our subscription whenever we want to or am I SOL cuz I have a whole year ahead of me?

Month to month subs can be cancelled at any time, but yeah, if you got a year sub, those can't be cancelled.

Oh :/ thanks for the heads up. Guess I'm stuck with it lol I still can't figure out the price increase/decline in value/shipping delays. It just doesn't make sense to me.
 
Has anybody gotten free boxes with the referral program? I'm eligible for one free box, how does it get redeemed?

I've gotten a referral box - you have a have an active sub- once your current sub runs out- the next box is free. For example , if you had a 3 month, your 4th month would be free or if your monthly your next box would be free.
 
Thanks for the info! I sub month to month, so I'll look forward to next month for free! I was actually going to cancel to save a little money, so that's a nice surprise- plus it's my birthday month :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
omg i want so many candies from sugarwish! i hope they accidentally send me two promo cards! my bf and i are candy addicts..esp taffy, licorice and gummies! :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Got my box! I'm actually pretty happy with everything. I do wish there was chocolate instead of cinnamon hearts, but I'm a chocoholic, lol, February is the best excuse in the world for me to indulge in my vice!

Dial Soap - at first I was disappointed but I looooove fruit smells! I'll definitely be using this up!

Gorjana Jewelry Roll - Not quite my style and color but a handy dandy item to have. I don't have a roll, just a case for jewelry storage while traveling.

K Hall Peony Candle - I don't like floral scents so this will make a perfect present to add to a gift basket for a friend or family member

Nourish Organic Serum - Again, not a big fan of the scent, but it'd be great for a gift basket/bag!

NCLA Polish - I have SOOOO many red polishes, but haha, the name Rodeo Drive Royalty just makes me think Pretty Woman...which makes me LOVE it

ModelCo Duo Lip Gloss/Lipstick - ADORE!

Sugarwish - Can't wait to use the coupon! I'm going to be giving these little hearts to my Valentine

Not the most amazing box ever but I did get a great discount on it, so I can't complain! I haven't decided if I'm going to cancel my subscription again or see what next month has in store.....darn it, I know if I cancel, next month will be awesome. Am I right? LOL

 
I started subscribing to Pop Sugar a few months ago and discovered Make-up Talk when I googled for spoilers.  I can't tell you how much I enjoy reading your posts.  You ladies are great detectives and sometimes I actually laugh out loud when reading your comments.  I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets so excited and wants to know what they're getting before the box arrives.  Several of my friends are now subscription addicts.  For me it's like Christmas in a box every month.  I work extremely long hours and discovering new ideas and learning about new products is a great stress reliever as well as pure enjoyment.  So I just want to say thank you for your humor, knowledge and advice.      

 
I've taken a look at the sugarwish site and it sort or reminds me of Amy's Candy Bar in Chicago.... which I am a punch card holder of. They have the best cherry gummy bears EVER.

It's totally true!!! I quietly subbed to Golden tote for moths, found this, and just signed up for my 4th sub box ... Eek!!!!
 
I love hearing everyone's opinion on the contents of this box, so here's mine:

Jewelry Roll: I won't be using it for jewelry, maybe makeup or knitting stuff. I like it.

Face Serum: Nothing I would ever buy, but I actually really like it. It seems to brighten up my complexion.

Peony Travel Candle: LOVE. For such a small candle it lasts awhile and has a great throw. I want to buy more.

ModelCo Lipstick and Lipgloss: LOVE! This is SO pretty when I wear the lipstick with the lipgloss over it.

SugarWish Cinnamon Hearts: Cute box. The cinnamon hearts are okay. I am debating whether to use the 20% off giftcode but even with it, it still seems very expensive for a small amount of candy.

NCLA nail polish: Similar color that Popsugar sent me before but I love how the NCLA applies. The Julep that they sent before was all gloopy when I applied it.

Dial Body Wash: My husband was confused when I told him it came in the Popsugar box. However, I like the fruity smell.

GG Gift card: I'm debating whether or not to use this because the s + h is so high!

Overall, I am enjoying this box more than I thought I would.

 
Unfortunately I was pretty disappointed by this month's box but I just discovered this website and am thrilled I will be able to trade with some of you ladies! If it werent for this discovery, I would have been really upset I paid for the box this month. The jewelry roll is a great idea, but I already own two and just don't need another one. My face is oily so the serum just wouldn't work for it, and the lipgloss and lipstick are not a color I would wear. I will likely use the candle, but its just so small. I wish there was a larger one instead. The dial soap I will strangely probably use, it just didnt fit with the rest of the box haha. Just a very different month from what I was expecting

 
I sat my sister down today and we opened our boxes together. Seeing her face light up while she dug through her first subscription box ever made the box for me. She was so excited! 

We both loved the nailpolish (I agree with everyone else- I don't like the Julep formula. Their polymer top coat is nice, though!).

Both of us loved the ModelCo (A repeat brand, yes, but I don't mind too much. The ligloss smells really nice and both apply nicely).
She loves the serum so I gave her mine as well.
She's not allowed to have candles (Mom thinks she'd burn the house down) and I don't care for the smell so those will be traded. I wonder if they really burn for 20 hours?
Her jewelry roll had some minor flaws so I traded her for mine. I like it and will probably use it to store makeup brushes when I travel. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
The Dial actually smells really nice! I can't use it due to allergies, but my sister was happy to take both of those, too.
We liked the cinnamon hearts and plan on making some cupcakes for Valentine's Day and sprinkling them on top. I don't know if I'll use the codes, doesn't seem like much of a deal, hahaha.

Overall I'm just glad I could give my sister a taste of sub boxes! I'm sure she'll be joining me in my addiction soon! She has been eyeing my Ipsy bag...

They do! I'm almost to the bottom of the candle and I'd say it's lasted about that long.

If you don't mind me asking...how old is she? lmao I'm just trying to put this in perspective...

She just turned 13, and as most kids her age, doesn't really notice the damages that happen to other people's property.
