I kind of love the contents of this box and kind of don't want it at all... I use the same water bottle every single day. I need more nail polish like a hole in my head.. I do not use workout DVD's.. I really want a POPSUGAR subscription though, yanno?

 
I'm excited about the infuser bottle and sleep mask.  The rest of it...meh.  But I bought this box through Ruelala with a $25 credit, so I'm not complaining!

 
I'm trying really hard to not order a second box with the $10 off code. I love everything in this box but I'm just not sure I need two of everything lol

 
Gotta say, this isn't the box for me. But I'm really glad so many people love it! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> And I can't really complain since I'm getting this for just $4.95 thanks to RueLaLa. Maybe I'll have a change of heart once I have the box in my hands. 

 
I feel like if I were getting this box, I would absolutely love it, but I can also live without receiving it. It's awesome, just not anything I actually need. I'm super excited they listened about that water bottle, though! Popsugar cares!!!

 
Just fyi everyone, Vbeaute lip spread is being sent only to the people who ordered the Resort box (as an apology for the shipping delays).

Edit: Just saw other people had already pointed this out, whoops!

I really liked March and April boxes and the May box is a little underwhelming. I hope the perfume smells good since that seems to be the most expensive item. The water bottle is fine. The dvd will go in my evergrowing pile of exercise dvd's that I swear someday I may actually try...maybe...I don't really need more nail polish either but I haven't tried Obsessive Compulsive and I like that shade. I got the box for $10 off so that's fine. All in all, I am now looking forward to June...darn these boxes for being so addicting!

 
I think this is a fun and useful box.  It doesn't really have the WOW factor but I'm not feeling like I wasted my money or anything.  I did use a $10 off code which makes it better.

I will use the Infuser bottle for sure.  I've kinda been wanting one but not enough to buy one :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'll use the DVD to give myself a rest from Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred.

The sleep mask is adorable!  I love it but I don't know how much use it will get.  I just like looking at the great print!

Snacks are always eaten.  Especially crunchy snacks....

I'm REALLY interested in the spray perfume.  Jasmine? LOVE! Coconut? LOVE!  Also, I love the way Hawaiian Tropic smells.  If its like that I'm going to douse myself and pretend I'm on the beach.  Or that there's sun...  /glares at rain

Nail polish is always welcome.

I'm secretly jealous of all of you getting the Vbeaute lipsmacker!

 
I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS BOX.

I tried the Hi I'm Skinny sticks in a Love with Food box a few months back and I loved them. Like, loved. They were really tasty and addictive. A bigger bag, AND it's onion flavor (hopefully)? Yay!

The nail polish is pretty, but I really, really don't need more nail polish. It will be nice to try a new brand I guess. This is the most "meh" item for me.

I have been trying to get a little more serious about diet and exercise (turns out that not dieting or exercising leads to weight gain, surprise surprise) and the DVD will come in handy for that. That chair DVD they sent out is just a little intense for me. I tried it and I was really afraid I was going to tip the chair and crack my head open. This one is probably more my speed. Will be perfect for those days that I just can't muster up the motivation to go to the gym.

The perfume...hmm. I will have to smell it first. I don't like coconut scents but I do like jasmine and musk. I LOVE their North by Northwest collection since I'm from the Northwest!

I have plenty of water bottles but no infuser bottles, so that's exciting. I love lemon water so that will be awesome!

I use a sleep mask every single night, so I'm really excited for that. I have one that blocks the light that creeps in around the nose though. This might be more cute than functional.

All in all I think this is really well curated and I'll be able to use everything, so it's a win for me.

Meant to cancel my Popsugar sub because I joined a gym and need to save some money somewhere. (This is the most expensive sub I have so it was on the chopping block.)  After I saw the charge on my account I was like, "oops, dang....I forgot to cancel.... hope I like the box." Well, I LOVE this box. It feels like it was curated especially for me at this point in my life.  I do think I will have to cancel after this month because it seems silly to pay $40 a month when I can cancel and sign back up with a $10 (or BETTER) coupon code.

 
I'm so excited - this will be my first month. I can never wait and be surprised so I was glad to find this forum! Everything looks awesome. I recently cancelled IPSY because I just wasn't getting enough I really liked/needed and I would give the majority away. I like how this box seems to have a fun mix of products. Can't wait! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I have been hoping for an infuser water bottle since October! I'M SO EXCITED! I'm so glad that I didn't buy one. I'm actually really excited for this box! I'm going to be living with a roommate come September and the mask is going to be super helpful. I'm always up for a new perfume and work out DVD. And I'm addicted to nail polish. 

 
Not sure about this box....

I already own two water infuser bottles thanks to Fancy, one of which is a citrus zinger. I don't need another and honestly probably used it once.

I already own an eye mask, which I never use and even if I did, I'm not a fan of the print.

I already own a ton of nail polish and don't wear blue that often, so I don't need another (Although, I do believe it's the same polish Emily posted on her blog "Cupcakes & Cashmere" a while back though!)

I will use the DVD and the perfume could either be a hit or a miss for me depending on whether I like the scent.

I am already a subscriber, so I guess I'm debating on whether I should attempt to cancel this box as mine hasn't shipped yet. If I like the perfume then it's worth it, but if not...

I almost wonder even if I like the perfume if I'm better off attempting to swap for those two items instead. Decisions. Decisions.

 
Well, I am kinda glad I didn't sub again, though I desperately want that waterbottle and nail polish. Might have to stalk y'all's trade board!

 
The pricing for some of this stuff is so weird… an eye mask for 24 bucks? I have so many from overseas flights that you get for free… much rather get a neck pillow… And no makeup other than the nail polish? I have so many of that chlorine blue nail polish, first ipsy then birch box and now pop sugar 

 
Just fyi everyone, Vbeaute lip spread is being sent only to the people who ordered the Resort box (as an apology for the shipping delays).

Edit: Just saw other people had already pointed this out, whoops!
Darn it.  Really wanted the Vbeaute lip spread! 

 
I LOVE everything in this box! I have been following the Tone it Up girls for a few years now and am excited to try this workout! I'm leaving for Vegas Friday and another trip at the end of the month so that eye mask will be great for flying and sleeping in hotels. I love the perfume spray; smells like summer! The nail polish is a really great color, I'll try it on my toenails next. The water bottle is great as well!! I've been wanting to try a diffuser since everyone was hyping them up on here! I got the lip balm as well!! It's been a very long week and this was such a pick me up!

 
I am so on the fence about this box. I have spent so much time in my life being SOOO against "diet and fitness" stuff because I feel like it is just feeding into a multi-billion dollar industry that tells women to feel bad about themselves. However, I have been into being healthy and more active lately and I can't help but kind of love the water bottle and the snacks and even the DVD will be interesting. Although I don't watch DVD's or even use my dvd player anymore so it's kind of a bummer at the same time. The polish, the perfume and the sleep mask are all super cute and I'm obsessed and totally don't need them,but I will love them just the same LOL

This was a free box for me so it's all gravy. I'd probably be middle-of-the-road if I paid for it, though.
