BTW, the hat is just a "fashion" hat (if you can call it that).  It doesnt have any warmth to it what so ever.  Tried it this morning in very cold weather.  pointless. Just FYI. 

EDIT: should clarify: there are lots of holes so wind cuts right through it. if it's not cold then maybe it could work. It does match the gloves we got last Jan.

Thanks for posting this, I was totally wondering!

I wore it out last night and it definitely kept me warm with it pulled over my ears. It wasn't windy though, so maybe thats the difference. For reference, I live in Boston and it was low teens while I was out last night. 

 
This box traveled quick this month. It left NJ on Tuesday and arrived on my doorstep today. Usually it takes about a week and a half. Then Popsugar emailed me to tell me it had shipped.

The hat's a keeper for me! It will keep my head warm during morning car duty. I'm training for a half marathon now, so the cream and towel will come in handy. I'll take the KeepCup into work for my hot tea. I might use the tattoos or I'll pass them onto my nieces. I'll snack on the granola. And I'll definitely use the ice water eyes. I had to put my cat of almost 16 years to sleep earlier in the week. My eyes are so puffy from all my crying :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Nothing outstanding, but just a nice solid box of things that I can use in my everyday life.
So sorry about your kitty. *hugs*

 
Got my box and I really like it. No big ticket item, but everything is a win. The towel feels so high quality, don't know how ill use it, but I like it. The hat is cute and I still have the matching gloves. The cup is awesome, I do wish it was a bit bigger. My husband called dibs on the eye gels and the granola. And I'm hoping that lotion cures my cracked heels. I only wish there was a better food item, like a second one that wasn't sponsored granola, but I'm still happy.

 
Okay, I don't really understand how to wear this hat. It's so big (and I don't have a small head.) I have to pull it over my eyes to have the Pom Pom be on top or it just kind of flops to the back. What am I doing wrong?

the pom pom is not supposed to be on top, it's a slouchy hat.

kinda like in this picture:

Does anyone else's hat smell really weird? Like I couldn't stand to have it on it smelled so bad and then my hair smelt funny.

Okay, so I did not notice a smell to my hat, but my cats totally did! They were all over that thing, even when I was wearing it, especially the pom pom part. Then, they were all up in my hair after I took it off. So I would say that there is definitely something "smelly" on the hat, but I am thankful it's not something my human nose can pick up.  Maybe a quick hand wash will rid the smell for you?

 
I sure hope my box just shows up. After their weird billing thing who knows when mine will ship. nothing on my FedEx account so I'm getting impatient. I had high hopes after getting my box on time last l month. Oh popsugar why don't you love me anymore?

 
I've been tracking my box since Thurs. of last week. It was scheduled to be delivered today, but is still on its way to my post office and won't be delivered for a few days... :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
My box is on the way!  It's really strange...for the last few months since they updated the site there was no history in my account.  I couldn't see my past purchases or current ones.  So I would use the tracking method I read about on MUT.  Now the FedEx reference number no longer works, but I finally have information in my account so I was able to see that I was charged for January and the tracking number was available.  I am a huge fan of the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream.  It works really well for my dry skin.  For 39 years everyone's obsession with coffee escaped me, but after a trip to Italy 2 years ago I finally got it.  I'm a coffee lover/addict now so I can't wait to try out the cup!

Got my box!

Hat: It's like wearing a cat toy on my head. My cat confirms this. 

Cup: It's a sippy cup for adults!

Granola: I'll eat it but wouldn't buy more. 

Towel: Very useful, though not for its intended purpose.

Lotion: Haven't opened. It's in line behind the whale lotion and several others.

Tattoos: Cute and on trend, but I'll likely just wear them around the house.

Eye gels: I wish there were a way to buy these cheap in bulk.

Overall it's a nice box, and I'm glad to be getting it mid-month.

Completely agree with you. The hat is cute but not good for walking in windy cold Michigan weather. I went for my 4 mile loop & froze my butt off!!!

Nice!  Here are my thoughts...I got my box today...

Hat: it's probably the closest thing to "hipsterchic" I'll ever wear, it's ok I might just rock it on the weekends at trendy bars and dinner out. Doubt it'll help with getting seated faster/getting drinks at the uber hip places.

Coffee cup: Fits under the keurig machine and it's pink, a win for me!

Towel: nice size and I think it'll help with traction for a few poses, will also be super helpful in the summer when my regular yoga class becomes hot yoga.

Lotion: also nice size on this and perfect for winter and can be used all over, legs, feet, hands etc. Love it.

Eye gels: will get used during allergy season and my boyfriend will probably want to use them too.

Tattoos: look kind of fun but I'm sure it'll take a lot of practice to get them to look right. I think there better suited for summer though. However I just saw these in a magazine recently, but i think they were for New Years Eve.

Granola: Meh, tastes ok. I threw some on ice cream, nothing special. My boyfriend will eat the rest of it. I guess they went for a semi 'healthy' treat but tea or hot chocolate would've been better for January.

 
I didn't get the box, but I just swapped for the beanie & I kind of love it. It's soft & the faux fur pom ups the coolness for me. I've never really been a beanie girl, but now I have the chic Joie one & an everyday slouchy one. Oh! And I also swapped for one that I only wear around the house when I'm drinking wine in my sweats because it makes my husband giggle (thanks, Nina Garcia)

I'm really hoping for more home goods this year from PS.

Also considering trying to swap for the cup since someone said it fits under the Keurig. Are they all pink though? Does the card show variations?

Mine just has a small pink band around it, it's mostly just a clear cup.
