Okay, Popsugar, I take it (mostly) back...
I wasn't too enthused upon first seeing spoilers for the box -- I think I was expecting a larger number of items. I braced myself for the likelihood of having to eBay most of it, but when I opened it up last night, I was pleasantly surprised! All of the colors/styles/scents were very well-suited to me, and I think I'll use and enjoy everything (with the exception of the cuff). I don't know if I'll take the gamble again, though (although part of me wants to think, "Now that they've done this once and received feedback, the next box will be the stuff of legend!! I couldn't possibly miss it!!").
Here's the breakdown:
Jewelmint Clutch -- Gold envelope (I probably won't use this for its intended purpose, but I think it will be cute on my dresser, and I liked someone's idea of using it as a "delivery box" for notes to family members
Epicuren Moisturizer -- in Papaya Pineapple
Chocolate Library -- I had three each of three different flavors -- all extremely good!
Compagnie de Provence -- in Fig of Provence
Tocca -- in Havana (sugarcane and spiced rum -- smells fantastic, even when not lit)
Heather Belle cuff -- Only thing I'm not keeping, but only because it's not my style (Anyone want mine? It seems make for small-ish wrists)
Deborah Lippman set -- Yay, the colors I wanted! The lipstick is in Under a Spell (sheer berry) and the polish is in witches Brew (sparkly wine) -- gorgeous!
I still like the concept of surprise boxes, but I think Popsugar could do better in terms of managing expectations with more hints and details of what the Luxe boxes might contain. All in all, though, I'm happy.
