Popsugar Must Have March 2015 *may contain spoilers*

[liliana.ro]

I really wish the bag was clear and not so neon. I really don't see a $40 value in it though, especially since it's not even for sale.

I don't know if I'll use it. Everything else, with exception to the useless notepad, looks great!

I love Benefit. I bought a sample of the Rollerlash and wish I had waited but I'm glad there is some make up included.

Call me crazy but I really like this box! On a side note does anybody else get their tracking number after its already delivered? This happens to me every month! 

This happens to me every month as well! At least, it has since the website change.

I'm really "meh" about this month's box and for some reason I feel guilty about it! I'm trying to love the items, b/c I love Popsugar and they have really impressed me the past few months. I've been getting Popsugar for over a year now, with the exception of May and June last year when I took a break (and regretted it!)

I love scented items and I think the reed diffusers are okay, but pretty much the only place it would work in my home is in my bathroom and sadly I don't have a place for it there, either. I will use the pineapple bag inside my beach bag to hold my keys, phone, chapstick, etc. so I'm actually looking forward to that item. The wet brush would be awesome if it were a normal sized brush. I carry a smallish purse so I won't be able to fit that brush in there /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Maybe I can keep it in my car, though.

I personally just don't really see the value in the box this month. Ah well, you win some you lose some. April better knock my socks off, though /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I wish my box would ship already. It seems to be taking awhile. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Charged last Thursday still no tracking and doesn't show up in my FedEx account. Boo!

Totally agree. Even when boxes/products are a miss for me they are still usually great items that I can gift or swap. Popsugar is one sub I'll probably always be excited about. I just spent the last week on Marco Island & Key West & used my Popsugar Kooringal Giselle crushable sun hat, Samudra fold-over pouch, pink wet brush, Sachin + Bibi sarong & my two Sisco Berluti bracelet sets every day! I was like a walking billboard haha!

I Looooove my Kooringal hat! I use it all the time, it's the perfect size. I have the bad habit of buying big sunhats and then wanting to go postal when it flops in my face. I just packed my two Turkish towels for an upcoming trip to Hawaii, glad I am finally remembering to use them.

I feel like if I saw you walking around I would be like YOU ARE MY PEOPLEEEEEE and instantly try to befriend you.

Oh man, this box is kinda a big old mehhhhh for me.

I might end up swapping almost the entire thing. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

My initial thoughts, I hope I end up liking the box when I get it in person.

Scrub, I'll try it.

What to pack pad, meh I don't travel enough to use this, I also live close enough to the beach to walk there so if I ever forgot something I'd just go home and get it. Probably will trade this.

Wet brush, I'm actually really happy to get this, I gave the previous one to a friend with long hair, she loved it.

Benefit samples, I like both products but it'll be my third mascara (easy enough to swap/trade or give to my sister), I like the porefessional. 

Half pops, meh I don't like popcorn, it's something that always gets stuck in my teeth but my boyfriend will happily eat these.

Diffuser, meh. I'm a candle girl. I gave the last diffuser away for a wedding gift last time, and they loved it. I might gift this to my mom for her b-day or mother's day since she can't do super strong scents due to allergies or I'm sure it'll trade well.

The pouch, I was thinking if it's plastic it might work as a makeup bag. My fabric bags are always getting really dirty, with a plastic pouch I feel like I could wipe it out with a clorox wipe and it would be good as new. But I have a tendency to carry a lot of makeup around and don't really re-touch much it during the day so I might be tempted to carry too much with the size of this pouch. But I think if I can keep my make up down to a few things and fold it, it might work for my purse or work bag. 

I guess I like a little over half of the items.  We'll see how I feel when it gets here.

Haha! I sometimes wonder if I'll meet a Popsugar friend when I'm wearing goodies from my boxes. I would have given you a big ol' hug!

I Looooove my Kooringal hat! I use it all the time, it's the perfect size. I have the bad habit of buying big sunhats and then wanting to go postal when it flops in my face. I just packed my two Turkish towels for an upcoming trip to Hawaii, glad I am finally remembering to use them.

Me too! I have other bigger "fancier" beach hats but they don't pack in my beach bag like the Kooringal or bend just right. It's my favorite.

I'll use everything but the notepads. I don't travel a whole lot, and when I do, I prefer to hand write everything myself. So those will probably go in a drawer somewhere and I won't discover them again for years and years. 

The plastic bag looks like it's worth about $10 at most, but I WILL use it, so whatever. Super excited about the Benefit Roller Lash mascara...I've been wanting to try it, so I'm glad I didn't end up going out and getting it. I need a new diffuser badly, so that it exciting. It'll be good to have another Wet Brush around...my roommate and I use the pink one on a daily basis. Some probably think it's weird to share brushes, but whatever...we've been friends for 20 years, I don't care! But anyway, everything will get used but the travel pads.

Why the heck does it seem like boxes aren't shipping yet. I think I saw only 1 or 2 of you ladies have their boxes moving. I still don't have a shipping label up on FedEx, and this is the latest it's been.

I know, right?  Mine is still in processing.  I am actually going on a beach vacation this Friday, and this bag had a ton of stuff I'd use, but the odds of me getting it on time are about 0.

Sorry about not having your box, but have fun on your vacation. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Thanks, I will!  It's a 'family' vacation though, so the fun of a beach vacation will be severely tempered by 7 people sharing a two bedroom condo.  Deep breaths /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Sounds like they knew they were delayed so they leaked the contents to bloggers knowing people would not be all up in arms of it. 

 

[lauradiniwilk]

is this a delay though?  I got the impression from the email they sent in Feb that they were going to do their best to get that month's box to us in time for V day, but after that they were going back to their previous shipping methods?

 

[Bizgirlva]

Ha March boxes are not even shipping and the April theme was released already!  WTG PopSugar!

I guess I was lucky, because with the exception of the holidays, according to my previous ship dates, this is now after the usual time mine ships out.
